Aspects of artificial intelligence

Book ·
OSTI ID:7169679
The first part of the book contains papers dealing with AI in relation to the philosophy of language and the theory of mind, and is thus ontological in nature, whereas the second part treats AI in relation to the theory of knowledge and the philosophy of science, and is thus concerned with methodology. The work is crucial to a fundamental understanding of AI research, and presents a basic guide for the fruitful, goal-directed implementation of such research, whether approached from the cognitive science direction, in which syntactical, semantical and pragmatical theories of mind are concerned, or from a more instrumental perspective, concerned with the theoretical character of patterns of reasoning used in AI. Philosophers, it must be remembered, have been studying such questions for a long time and the fruits of their discussions are of acute relevance to modern AI workers.
