Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Examines the full spectrum of human cognition--including creativity, common sense, spirituality, and dreaming--describes the role that emotion plays in these thought processes, and explains how it is possible to introduce emotions into artificial intelligence systems.

Reseña del editor

Can we introduce emotion into the computer? David Gelernter, one of the leading lights in artificial intelligence today, begins "The Muse in the Machine" with this provocative question. In providing an answer, he not only points to a future revolution in computers but radically changes our views of the human mind itself. Bringing together insights from computer science, cognitive psychology, philosophy of mind, and literary theory, David Gelernter presents what is sure to be a much debated view of how humans have thought, how we think today, and how computers will learn to think in the future.
