Description

Explores the philosophical issues that arise in cognitive science, particularly issues concerning the nature of minds. Students consider the idea that the mind is a digital computer, then analyze alternatives, such as connectionism and dynamics.

Class Notes

From the instructor: Is your mind a computer? And, if so, what kind of computer? What aspects of intelligence can computers reproduce, if any? If your mind is not a computer, then what else could it possibly be? This class explores these questions while reflecting on what?s central to our personal identity and agency.
