  • Yeah I see what you mean. There’s a decent argument to be made that something like reasoning appears as an emergent property in this kind of system, I’ll admit. Still, the fact that fundamentally the code works as a prediction engine rules out any sort of real cognition, even if it makes an impressive simulacrum. There’s just no ability to invent, no true novelty, which – to my mind at least – is the hallmark of actual reasoning.

    Reminds me of this dialogue from Ghost World

    Enid : You know, we need to find a place where you can go to meet women who share your interests.
    Seymour : Well maybe I don’t want to meet someone who shares my interests. I hate my interests.
