Chinese room

While reading a science fiction book (I’ll post about it once I finish) I came across the Chinese room argument.

The argument was presented by John Searle in 1980.

I don’t intend to explain what it is, nowadays you can just ask any AI chat. )))

for me, one of the unclear points is the person in the room follows the instructions

if it matters what kind of instructions, who/what creates the instructions, how to compare the instructions and the way our brain works, etc.

long story short – philosophy )))

Net migration out of England to the rest of the UK soared by 53pc in the year to June 2023 to hit 31,393, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

The average home in England cost £306,000 in August, 54pc more than a typical property in Scotland and 40pc more than in Wales, according to the ONS.

Similarly, monthly rent for a typical property in London was £2,129, 55pc more than the £1,367 cost of renting a home in Edinburgh’s local authority of Lothian.
