Can a machine genuinely think, understand, or have a mind? Or, in other words, can machines possess intelligence? One may argue that the answer depends on how we define intelligence. Is intelligence ...
With regard to my previous blog on a One-bit processor and a mega-cool Turing machine, I’ve been bouncing around the Internet discovering all sorts of cool things… But before we hurl ourselves ...
