John Searle - the Chinese Room A message from the room Searle is a kind of Horatius, holding the bridge againt the computationalist advance. He deserves a large share of the credit for halting, or at least checking, the Artificial Intelligence bandwagon which, until his paper 'Minds, Brains and Programs' of 1980 seemed to be sweeping ahead without resistance. Of course, the project of "strong AI" (a label Searle invented), which aims to achieve real consciousness in a machine, was never going to succeed , but there has always been (and still is) a danger that some half-way convincing imitation would be lashed together and then hailed as conscious. The AI fraternity has a habit of redefining difficult words in order to make things easier. Terms for things which, properly understood, imply understanding, and which computers can't, therefore, handle - are redefined as simpler things which computers can cope with. At the time Searle wrote his paper, it looked as if "understanding" might quickly go the same way, with claims that computers running certain script-based programs could properly be said to exhibit at least a limited understanding of the things and events described in their pre-programmed scenarios. If this creeping debasement of the language had been allowed to proceed unchallenged, it would not have been long before 'conscious', 'person' and all of the related moral vocabulary were similarly subverted, with dreadful consequences.

Thursday, May 17, 2007 In Which John Searle Confronts Virtual Teenager Jacob With His Counterargument To Alan Turing's Consciousness Test, With Telling Results John Searle: Suppose that, many years from now, we have constructed a computer that behaves as if it understands Chinese. Jacob: Right now? I'm not sure that's possible John Searle: In other words, the computer takes Chinese characters as input and, following a set of rules (as all computers can be described as doing), correlates them with other Chinese characters, which it presents as output. Jacob: Where is that? John Searle: Suppose that this computer performs this task so convincingly that it easily passes the Turing test. In other words, it convinces a human Chinese speaker that the program is itself a human Chinese speaker. Jacob: Whats it like in there? John Searle: All the questions the human asks are responded to appropriately, such that the Chinese speaker is convinced that he or she is talking to another Chinese-speaking human. Jacob: All?

46. Review Of John Searle's Book, The Construction Of Social Reality A 1998 review of searle s book, by Jerry Shaffer. Concisely summarizes searle s arguments. http://users.california.com/~rathbone/searles.htm

Nov. 25, 1998 Jerry Shaffer, Ph. D. Review of John R. Searle, The Construction of Social Reality , Free Press: N.Y., 1995 John Searle is a well-known American philosopher, at the Univ. of Calif, Berkeley. He has written a number of books such as "Speech Acts," "Intentionality," "The Rediscovery of the Mind," and "Minds, Brains, and Science," and a multitude of scholarly articles. Searle is very much a Modernist philosopher. He believes that there exist objective facts which make the world the way it is and that at least some of these facts can be known to a high degree of probability. He is careful to define key terms as precisely as he can and explain them with a multitude of examples. He writes in a plain and unadorned style, avoiding flowery passages and dark sayings. No special expertise is needed to understand this book. Any theses he advances he defends with arguments that he believes to be rigorous and logical. But for all his Modernism, he is Post-Modern in holding that much of our knowledge is concerned with facts which are socially constructed. Most of this ``book consists of an examination of these social facts and an explanation of how they arise. In this book, Searle defends the "Realist" view that there exists a real world comprised of objective facts which fall into two categories. In one category are (1) those facts (he calls them "brute facts") which exist independently of what humans think about them and (2) those facts which depend for their existence on human thought (he calls them "social facts.") Examples of the first sort are the mental fact that I am now in pain and the physical facts that Mount Everest has snow and ice at its summit and that hydrogen atoms have one electron. Examples of the second sort of fact, social facts, are that this piece of paper is a five dollar bill, that he is a citizen of the U. S., that the New York Giants won the 1991 superbowl, and that he owns a piece of property in Berkeley, CA.

50. Hating John Searle (Aaron Swartz's Raw Thought) I think john searle might be my favorite living philosopher. But when I tell my friends this, they recoil in horror. That bastard? one friend cries. http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/searle

Raw Thought : Hating John Searle I think John Searle might be my favorite living philosopher. But when I tell my friends this, they recoil in horror. "That bastard?" one friend cries. "He tripled my rent !" "Oh geebus," another cries. "The Chinese Room argument is awful I will not profess to have an opinion on whether the fourteenth amendment requires the City of Berkeley to provide a rational basis for only allowing its landlords to raise rents at forty percent of the increase in the consumer price index, but I must admit I fail to see what the question has to do with Searle as a philosopher. The other complaint seems less ad hominem , but I think is fundamentally similar. Reading Searle's published books, it's striking how little space the Chinese Room Argument takes up. Indeed, his book on the subject of consciousness The Rediscovery of the Mind gives it little more than a paragraph and notes that his more recent argument against functionalism is far more powerful. Nonetheless, I will defend the Chinese Room Argument. The basic idea, for those who aren't familiar with it, is this: imagine yourself being placed in a room and given instructions on how to convert one set of Chinese symbols to another. To outsiders, if the instructions are good enough, it will seem as if you understand Chinese. But you do not consciously understand Chinese you are simply following instructions. Thus, no computer can ever consciously understand Chinese, because no computer does more than what you're doing it's simply following a set of instructions. (Indeed, being unconscious, it's doing far less.)

Home Ordering Search/Browse Contact ... HUP Minds, Brains and Science John Searle Minds, Brains and Science takes up just the problems that perplex people, and it does what good philosophy always does: it dispels the illusion caused by the specious collision of truths. How do we reconcile common sense and science? Searle argues vigorously that the truths of common sense and the truths of science are both right and that the only question is how to fit them together. Searle explains how we can reconcile an intuitive view of ourselves as conscious, free, rational agents with a universe that science tells us consists of mindless physical particles. He briskly and lucidly sets out his arguments against the familiar positions in the philosophy of mind, and details the consequences of his ideas for the mind-body problem, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, questions of action and free will, and the philosophy of the social sciences.

54. Book Review Of John Searle By reviewing the theory of consciousness of one of our leading philosophers, john searle, one can highlight the target of the debate, the status of the http://www.scaruffi.com/mind/searle.html

John Searle: THE REDISCOVERY OF THE MIND (MIT Press, 1992) Piero Scaruffi Legal restrictions - Termini d'uso First review Searle's critique of theories of the mind is based on the lack for a good theory of consciousness. There is no mind without consciousness, and there can be no theory of the mind without a theory of consciousness. All paradoxes of functionalist models arise from having neglected consciousness. Conscious mental states and processes are fundamentally different from anything else in nature because they are "subjective". They are not equally accessible to all observers. They cannot be reduced to more elementary units. Searle believes that the objective properties of the brain cause the subjective ones, i.e. that consciousness is a biological phenomenon, though consciousness can't be reduced to physical states in the brain. This is not "property dualism" because Searle rejects the idea that the universe can be partitioned in physical and mental properties: things such as "ungrammatical sentences, my ability to ski, the government and points scored in football games" cannot be easily categorized as mental or physical. The traditional mental vs physical dichotomy is pointless. Brain processes cause consciousness but consciousness is itself a feature of the brain ("non-event causation").

G. D. Searle's biggest growth is owed to the launch of the first oral contraceptive drug, Enovid, in 1957. A product of John Searle's intensive research program, Enovid was a huge success, allowing the firm's profits to grow from $7.4 million to $24.2 million between 1960 and 1964.
