Description
Artificial Intelligence: A Philosophical Introduction by Jack Copeland provides a clear and accessible overview of the progress made in AI since its inception in 1956. The book explores the fundamental questions that underpin the field, including the nature of computation, the possibility of machines having free will and consciousness, and the relationship between classical symbol processing and parallel distributed processing. A detailed examination of key concepts such as connectionism and the language of thought hypothesis is also presented. Through a critical analysis of foundational issues in AI, Copeland offers a nuanced understanding of the challenges facing those working in the field. This introduction is ideal for readers seeking to understand the philosophical underpinnings of artificial intelligence.
