Can A Computer Program Think Like A Human?Can Machines Think? Ever Since Alan Turing Posed This Question In An Influential 1950 Paper, It Has Been Central To Research In Artificial Intelligence. More Than SeventyFive Years After TuringS Paper, We Grapple With It Every Time We Wonder If Watson Was Actually Smarter Than Jeopardy! Champions, Or If Chatgpt Really Knows What ItS Talking About. In Thinking Ai, Computer Scientist John Maccormick Explores TuringS Question From A Perspective Informed By A Detailed Understanding Of The Way Modern Ai Systems Work. Maccormick Explains, In Accessible Fashion, The Ideas Behind The Two Main Pillars Of The TwentyFirst Century Ai Revolution: Deep Neural Networks And Reinforcement Learning.Maccormick Offers A Tour Of The Most Famous Ai Systems, Including Alexnet And Vgg16, Deep Neural Networks For Object Recognition That Led To A Nobel Prize; DeepmindS Alphago, Which Shocked Ai Researchers With Its Superhuman Performance In The Game Of Go; And OpenaiS Chatgpt, Which Stunned The World With Its Natural Language Capabilities. He Describes How Each System Works, And Points To Parallels With Human Brain Processes. Both Human Minds And Computer Programs, Maccormick Explains, Can Induce Intelligence Through Emergence: The Capability For New Phenomena To Emerge From The Interactions Of Many Small, Simple Components. Does This Mean That A Computer Program Can Think Like A Human? In Many Ways, Maccormick Argues, The Answer Is Yes. In Thinking Ai, He Reveals A New Landscape Of Emergent IntelligenceA World In Which Computer Programs Can Emulate Many Or All Aspects Of Human Thinking But Humanity Retains Its Meaning And Purpose.
