Description: Wittgenstein's Remarks on the Foundations of AI by Stuart G. Shanker In this lucid and meticulously researched book, Stuart Shanker discusses the theories expounded by Wittgenstein on the philosophy and psychology of cognitive science and the development of artificial intelligence. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In this book, Stuart Shanker discusses how two such dissimilar, if not adverse, movements could join together and how the concerns of the cognitive revolution could have been so quickly unsurped by those of AI. Stuart Shanker explores Wittgensteins preoccupation with the origins and development of AI in mechanist ideas and argues that Wittgensteins remarks on mechanism are instrumental in our understanding of the foundations of AI and the future of cognitive science. Back Cover Wittgensteins Remarks on the Foundations of AI is a valuable contribution to the study of Wittgensteins theories and his controversial attack on artifical intelligence, which successfully crosses a number of disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, logic, artificial intelligence and cognitive science, to provide a stimulating and searching analysis.
