Professor Schmitter speaks with Ben Charland about consciousness, artificial intelligence, and Descartes.
What is consciousness? Where does the mind reside? Can we create artificial intelligence that can fake intelligence, or maybe just have it? What happened in 17th century Europe that led to such a fascinating time for deep thinkers? And are we going through a similar period of churn today?
Ben Charland has a fascinating and wide-ranging chat about these big questions with our own Amy Schmitter.
