How did you find PF?

Hello, there. I don't have much to contribute yet; I have no patience with fools; I don't discuss politics -- good way to lose friends.

I'm keenly interested in AI topics, as well as new breakthroughs in medicine, physics, archaeology, .... well, whatever science seems interesting.

Welcome to PF. :smile:

Good, because we don't allow political discussions here at PF. Those belong at the CivicsWatch website instead.

There are often threads on AI here. In fact, here's the latest:

AI Thread 'Is A.I. more than the sum of its parts?'

Given that neuroscience cannot definitively explain where consciousness originates - whether as an emergent property of the brain or something transcendent - is it be possible for complex chatbots to develop behaviours that can’t be predicted by simply analyzing the sum of their parts?

Note, however, that (for reasons I don't understand) this site generally is extremely skeptical about AI! It's forbidden to suggest that AI can do anything mathematical or scientific!

Out in back of the outhouse, I hope.

Hmmm. I would think that any subject bound by a set of rules would be a fine candidate for AI. The sociological and philosophical stuff should give an AI heartburn.
