Can computers understand? That’s the question explored in “Understanding Computers and Cognition,“ an interesting old book on philosophy and AI by Winograd and Flores. In this video, I walk you through the basic arguments and ideas.
Note: I recorded this when I was away from my usual studio last Dec/Jan, so my apologies on the lighting etc., if that bothers you.
