His theory of computation suggested that a machine, by shuffling )s and 1s, could simulate any conceivable algorithm (mechanical procedure: tried to broke the code in gemany. Every aspect of learning or other feature of intelligence can in principle be so precisely described that a machine can be made to simulate it. : found the artificial intelligence. Strong ai hypothesis: the appropriately programmed computer with the right inputs and outputs would thereby have a mind in exactly the same sense human beings have minds . You could use these computers not to think but to understand concepts and help us to think. Accelerating progress in thechnologies will cause a runaway effect wherein ai will exceed human intellectual capacity and control, this radically chaning or even ending civilization.
