Philosophers Daniel C. Dennett and David Chalmers In Conversation

John Brockman, who for the past 50+ years has lived at the intersection of arts and sciences, brings together two of the world’s leading philosophers, David Chalmers and Daniel C. Dennett, to discuss themes from his new book “Possible Minds – 25 Ways of Looking at AI.” The exchange focuses on the question: “Is Superintelligence Impossible?” They question its feasibility as they pull apart brain-environment, brain-microbiome mechanisms, and quantify universal molecular principles. Can we even understand the mind by using the mind? Subscribe to Pioneer Works: https://www.youtube.com/c/PioneerWork...
