This failure, John Pollock argues, is because the problems involved are essentially philosophical; what is needed for the construction of a person is a physical system that mimics human rationality. Pollock describes an exciting theory of rationality and its partial implementation in OSCAR, a computer system whose descendants will literally be persons. In developing the philosophical superstructure for this bold undertaking, Pollock defends the conception of man as an intelligent machine and argues that mental states are physical states and persons are physical objects as described in the fable of Oscar, the self conscious machine. Pollock brings a unique blend of philosophy and artificial intelligence to bear on the vexing problem of how to construct a physical system that thinks, is self conscious, has desires, fears, intentions, and a full range of mental states. He brings together an impressive array of technical work in philosophy to drive theory construction in AI. The result is described in his final chapter on "cognitive carpentry."A Bradford Book 001386191 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386191 650_0 $$aArtificial intelligence$$xPhilosophy. 001386191 650_0 $$aMachine learning. 001386191 653__ $$aCOGNITIVE SCIENCES/General 001386191 653__ $$aPHILOSOPHY/General 001386191 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386191 852__ $$bebk 001386191 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/3588.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386191 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386191 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386191$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386191 980__ $$aBIB 001386191 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386191 982__ $$aEbook 001386191 983__ $$aOnline
