About This Book

This book invites readers to explore the intricate world where AI, consciousness, and human cognition intersect. This groundbreaking book considers the profound differences between man and machine, challenging existing notions in AI and cognitive science. It argues that the key to understanding intelligence lies not in software, but in the hardware of our brain – a complex biochemical system far removed from current AI architectures. Through a deep examination of time, perception, language, and the nature of thought, the book presents a compelling case for the indispensability of biology and consciousness in cognition. To achieve this, to engineer this, will indeed be a challenge for AI. FEATURES

  • Presents an alternative to the conventional computer metaphor, offering a new framework for understanding the mind
  • Introduces a fresh perspective on the role of time in AI and philosophy, highlighting its critical importance
  • Explores the biochemical basis of cognition, challenging the traditional focus on symbol manipulation and neural networks
