Blog assignment#6


                Kurzweil is optimistic about artificial intelligence. In the singularity is near the author writes, “machines can pool their resources in a ways that humans cannot” (Kurzweil 139). By writing this statement he means that machine memory is way to faster than human’s. Robots can make everything easy in our lives.
In Dream-Logic, the internet and artificial thought the author writes, “the man actually sees and senses a rose in his mind; he can imagine its color, feel and fragrance but for the computer, no imaginary rose exists and there is no inner mental world; there is only a blank" (Gelernter 207). By writing this statement the author meant that no matter what computer can never become stronger than humans, in the sense they can't never act the way human body and brain works. Humans have ability to sense things; computers will never be able to sense things the way human does. The feelings and emotions humans have; computers can't reach it, because the inventors of computers are humans.
