Natural Born Computers

Hi Cho! Sorry to bother you …

Hi Julia! Never a bother! How can I help you?  😊                                

I was asked to contribute to another article for John’s magazine

It is about the history of AI? And we have some questions …

Sure, but AI isn’t really my thing, as you know  😅                               

Oh, yes I do know! But you do have a background in psychology, right? 😉

That’s right, cognitive psychology 😊                                                     

So, early AI was inspired by how humans think and what they think with

do you think we need to include something about the history of neuropsychology?

Like, how did we discover the rules of thinking in the brain?             

Exactly! 😊

Ah, now I see what you’re getting at. Well, maybe  🤔                        

Maybe? 🤔

It depends a bit on what you mean by “intelligence”                         

If you mean human level general intelligence, then I’m not sure the history brain science is going to help

But if you also mean, basic pre-processing of information in the sense-organs, then probably yes!

Also, you might need to ask someone like Sam about the “artificial part”

If it works like human intelligence, why do we call it artificial?           

Thank you for the clarification, Sam was indeed my next stop, and then I’ll get back to John.

Good luck with your article!
