TY - RPRT T1 - Some Brief Essays on Mind Y1 - 1989 A1 - Perlis, Don KW - *ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE KW - CYBERNETICS KW - HUMANS KW - Music KW - Robots AB - The author tries to explain his view of artificial intelligence, and more broadly how it fits into science as a whole. In doing so, he will not hesitate to indulge in sheer speculation when it seems to fit the topic. He will begin with a negative thought (one that he does not agree with). Consider the statement that, while robots and AI (artificial intelligence) may make great strides in the future, still they never will be able to produce music with the sensitivity of certain humans with great musical talent.
