The bot is simply responding using patterns of human speech and is not producing its thoughts on its own. Artificial Intelligence will require original thought from the computer, as well as some sort of emotional response or desire to gain more information. It may be said that in the future even more advanced chatbots are going to be invented, ones that will be completely foolproof. Even these, however, will not provide us with enough evidence of intelligence or consciousness. Fooling human beings into thinking that the AI is intelligent is only part of proving its intelligence. The more important aspects are found in the careful studying of the artificial intelligence's behavior in order to find patterns that show an increasingly intelligence program as well as interaction with human beings that is prolonged and intelligent.
In conclusion, artificial intelligence and machine thinking is on the horizon, and will reshape the way humans live their lives. (Hayden, 2011) These machines will serve many duties, and will be able to...
Whether the machines will be used in labor, in the service sector, or as novelties, they will still be fully capable of comfortable human interaction, or else they will not be thought of as human-like. An estimation of twenty years is not too short of a time for this, as computer hardware is advancing constantly, and software has grown more complex and dynamic as well.

The phrase "more human than human" from the film Bladerunner comes to mind. Turning off Data, with the knowledge that he can be turned back on at any time does not constitute murder, however it does make the tool analogy more applicable. Picard believes that Data is self-aware and has the mind/body view that supports that while Maddox believes that this is merely programming and his self-awareness is only
Androids From your reading of Hasker, and using the categories he uses, what view of the mind/body problem do you think is exhibited by Picard? By Maddox? Support your answer. When explaining the mind/body problem, Hasker points out that there are physical properties and mental properties of people that can enhance understanding of the Star Trek episode. Hasker also notes that the philosophical concept of dualism (between mind and body) and the
Consciousness There are numerous technical intricacies to neurobiological research. The human brain is a completely intricate mechanism and holds numerous neurons. This creates problems in studying consciousness particularly in comprehending how brain processes trigger human consciousness, and how the brain realizes consciousness. The major aspect of perception is that for every conscious condition, people experiences some qualitative disposition to that state of being consciousness. In this regard, this paper assesses the
Potentially, this changes the way profit is used to build a larger network of computer users who now wish to harness the power of technology to develop a new world.

Picard: Like this hearing. Maddox: Yes With this acknowledged, Maddox admits Data is intelligent, but lacks self-awareness and consciousness. Picard: What about self-awareness? What does that mean? Why am I self-aware? Maddox: Because you are conscious of your existence and actions. You are aware of your own self and your own ego. Picard: Commander Data. What are you doing now? Data: I am taking part in a legal hearing to determine my rights and status. Am
Minds and Computers Dennett explains that what a person believes must be based at least in part on something which they can ascribe to be true based on evidence that they possess. It is impossible to believe something based on nothing; even religions have certain basic facts such as the existence of known locations or even the fact that human beings exist is a fact in and of itself. When there
