The Emergence of Mind: Where Technology Ends and We Begin

Autor Jeffrey Kane
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 ian 2024
​While it may appear that generative AI has mastered the mystery of the human mind and released its full power, The Emergence of Mind: Where Technology Ends and We Begin demonstrates the profound and fundamental limitations of the technology and its use as a model of human thinking.  In response, the book offers an emergent model of the human mind rooted in our experiences as living, sentient, social and conscious beings. The text explores the nature of meaning in human cognition and the critical importance of the experience of ideas. In so doing, it offers insights into the cultivation of specific generative capacities of the human mind.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

"Whether or not you accept the conventional wisdom that computational intelligence and human intelligence are essentially the same, I recommend that you ponder Jeffrey Kane's timely and persuasive book. "
Howard Gardner, Hobbs Research Professor of Cognition and Education, Harvard Graduate School of Education

“In this breathtaking journey through both the works of classic and contemporary philosophers and scientists, Kane sometimes offers agreements but also compelling challenges, leaving the reader filled with the excitement of the mission. While so much has been learned, there is so much more to be understood. Kane illuminates that the journey to understanding how the brain gets mental has just begun.” 
Mike Gazzaniga, Director of the SAGE Center for the Study of Mind, University of California, Santa Barbara
