As +Williamson has mentioned a few times, intelligence requires a spirit/soul. Of course there are plenty of humans who are dumber than a sack of wet mice. :laugh1:

Angels and demons we know can manipulate matter, so there is something to it when we say "that dang blasted puter!"

If HAL exists, it is because of a demonic infestation.

Although not a programmer or computer geek or anything of such skill, I do remember my older brother's IMSAI 8080. I had computers in the house thus likely as long as Ladislaus. :cowboy: Screamingly loud dot matrix printers and the like. Simpler and happier days though. TRS 80s and BASIC. Plus I grew up with Star Trek TOS.

Funny how this thread has turned into a discussion about the impossibility of true AI -- though I suppose I started it. That's CathInfo for ya! Threads take on a life of their own.

Aw sugar feathers! I keep forgetting not to non-anonymous-ize myself. Maybe I caught the Rahner variant! :facepalm:
