A brief review of the computer model of cognition |
|
| An intelligent being has to deduce the implications of what it knows, but only the relevant implications. This requirement poses a deep problem not only for design of machines, but epistemology, the analysis of how we know. | ||
| The problem escaped the notice of generations of philosophers, who were left complacent by the illusory effortlessness of their own common sense. Only when artificial intelligence researchers tried to duplicate common sense in computers, the ultimate black slate, did the conundrum, now called "the frame problem" come to light. yet somehow we also solve the frame problem whenever we use our common sense. | ||
| Robot design is a kind of a consciousness-raising. We tend to be unthinking about our mental lives. We open our eyes, and familiar articles present themselves, we will our limbs to move, and objects and bodies float into place; we awaken from a dream and return to a comfortingly predictable world; Cupid draws back his bow and lets his arrow go. But think of what it takes for an arrangement of matter to accomplish these outcomes; and you begin to see through the effortless illusion. | ||
| Sight and action and common sense and morality and love are no accident, no inextricable ingredients of an intelligent essence, no inevitability of information processing. Each is a tour de force, wrought by a high level of targeted design. | ||
| Hidden behind the panels of consciousness must life fantastically complex machinery- optical analyzers, motion guidance systems, simulations of the world, databases on people and things, goal schedulers, conflict-resolvers and many others. | ||
| The robot challenge hints at a mind loaded with original equipment, but it still may strike you asa an argument from the armchair. | ||
| When the visual areas of the brain are damaged, for example, the visual world is not simply blurred or riddled with holes. Selected aspects of visual experience are removed while others are left intact. | ||
| Some patients see a complete world but pay attention to only half of it. Other patients cannot recognize the objects they see: their world is like handwriting they cannot decipher. They copy a bird faithfully but identify it as a tree stump. A cigarette lighter is a mystery until it is lit. | ||
| These syndromes are caused by an injury, usually a stroke, to one or more of the 30 brain areas that compose the primate visual system. Some areas specialize in colour and form, others in where an object is, others in what an object is, still others in how it moves. | ||
| The mind is not one organ but a system of organs of computation. They can be thought of as psychological faculties or mental modules. | ||
| The mind is what the brain does, specifically the brain processes information and thinking is a kind of computation. | ||
| The mind is organized into modules or mental organs, each with a specialized design that makes it an expert in one arena of interaction with the world. The modules basic logos is specified by our genetic program. | ||
| 18.5.1 | The origins of the computational mind theory | |
| Information and computation resides in patterns of data and in relations of logos that are independent of the physical medium that carries them. We you phone a person, the message stays the same as it goes from your lips to their ears even as it physically changes form from sound vibrations to electrical vibrations and then back to sound via the speaker in the phone. | ||
| This insight, first expressed by the mathematician Alan Turing, the computer scientists Alan newell, Herbert Simon is now called the computational theory of mind. | ||
| The computational theory of mind states that beliefs and desires are information, incarnated as configurations of symbols. The symbols are the physical states of bits of matter, like chips in a computer or neurons in the brain. They symbolize things in the world because they are triggered by those things via our sense organs, and because of what they do once they are triggered. | ||
| 18.5.2 | A restructure of view on DNA | |
| DNA plays an essential information storage system for all cellular life. Our DNA is the code that makes us, that shapes us, that defines our physical limitations. | ||
| The two information storage systems of DNA | ||
| Science has identified one coding system for DNA- the tri-chemical storage of protein and other molecular structures. | ||
| We can all this matter. And DNA codes approximately 15% of its space to coding matter. | ||
| However science has yet to describe the coding purpose of binary nucleic pairs, the missing rule components- what we can awareness, or memory of awareness. | ||
| For without this second set of information, matter coding would be meaningless. A cell needs to know what it is supposed to do and how it is to be arranged. | ||
| Rules and matter, memory and emotion. These are the pairs of purposes of DNA. | ||
| 18.5.3 | The purpose of binary chemical | |
| Like tri-chemical, binary chemical is divided into specific topics and sections. There are three main classes of binary chemical DNA memory coding: o GEN o BIO o MEM | ||
| o GEN CODE | ||
| Gen code is the function instructions for the chemical structures developed by the tri-chemical code systems. The gencode identifies the priority order, placement, function, assemblage order, timetable for all physical components manufactured by the cell. | ||
| Gencode also contains the history of key immune response requirements? | ||
| BIOCODE | ||
| Biocode is the machine operating instructions for the function of memory and information identified and co-ordination. It is the code that determines machinery of cognitive function. | ||
| MEMCODE | ||
| memcode are information sequences associated with basic learned macro-function of physical parts. It also includes information sequences of major inherited experiences. | ||
| KINCODE | ||
| Kin code are the binary sequence arrangements that differ from human to human due to genetic drift. This is the specific heredity environment of the individual inherited from ancestors. | ||
| Therefore Kincode is integrated into GEN, BIO, MEM and so a human has three GENKIN, BIOKIN, MEMKIN. | ||
| SOLCODE | ||
| SOL code is higher functions embedded in GEN, BIO and MEM | ||
| EGO EGO code is higher functions misaligned inherited in GEN, BIO & MEM It is the antithesis of Sol code and is designed to actively work against it. EGO code is especially effective in clouding MEM and BIO code components of SOL, thereby making the access of SOL code harder. EGO has self released points that activate upon suitable stimulation and harness with KIN code. MACHINE CODE machine code is the Bio and MEM code loaded into the nerve centres and primordial brain as well as key cortex centres. It is the building blocks of unconscious. Unconscious reacts independent of conscious.
