Listen "Can Machines Really Think? The Basic Argument Against Machine Intelligence."

Episode Synopsis

In this video, Anthony Alberino presents a basic argument against the idea that machines—no matter how advanced—can actually think or possess understanding. Drawing from philosopher Edward Feser's 2024 book Immortal Souls: A Treatise on Human Nature, Alberino examines why understanding the nature of a computer is the key to seeing why Artificial Intelligence can only ever simulate or mimic human intelligence.
