IMHO Not to disparage the superb work that computers can do, but? think that it is a mistake to anthropo-morphise the computer. It has no intelligence, no life, no awareness, I have given my argument for why computers can be intelligent, aware, etc.? What is your argument that they cannot? ? there's nothing magic about it. So your argument is that they have no magic, but we do?? Why do you believe (only?) we have this magic? ? It's just a complex bunch of diodes and transistors. And life is just a complex bunch of chemicals and solutions. Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
