T 4/20 Introduction 215-218; Evans 219-231

1. What are the personal consciousness and unpredictability objections to artificial intelligence, and how does Evans respond to them?

2. The Lady Lovelace objection to artificial intelligence consists in the claim that computers and machines are merely an extension of human intelligence, and consequently can never perform an independent creative task. How does Evans respond to each of these points?

3. What is the Turing test for artificial intelligence? Do you believe that this test is sufficient to prove that machines think? Why or why not?
