A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm pretty sure that there's not a consensus on how the mind works yet. AI is more accurately described as "modeled after how we think the mind works right now". the processes used in AI are at best smplified analogs of perceived mental processes. just because they can produce a similar output doesn't mean they are functionally equivalent to actual human thought processes. i mean, it takes a supercomputer to model a portion of a rat brain the size of a grain of sand... i remain unconvinced that the technology as it currently exists is more than a caricature of cognition.
We know fairly well how mind works, at least the parts that were an inspiration for machine learning.
