Description
Douglas Hofstadter’s book is worried right away with the character of maps” or links between formal systems. Alternatively, consistent with Hofstadter, the formal system that underlies all mental activity transcends the system that supports it. If life can grow out of the formal chemical substrate of the cell, if consciousness can emerge out of a proper system of firing neurons, then so too will computers attain human intelligence., Goedel, Escher, Bach is a superb exploration of fascinating ideas on the heart of cognitive science: that means, reduction, recursion, and a lot more.
