When can we say something is "alive"? Posted 16 December 2011 -
11:28 PM He said that there was a law that determined when
something is alive. Each unit in his application had all the
properties necessary that made them "alive" by definition Does
anyone happen to know the name of that law? Posted 17 December
2011 - 10:28 AM Posted 17 December 2011 - 10:31 AM The turing
test has been passed by some software, I saw a note about it
somewhere but cannot remember where. However that code is by no
means "alive", it's just very cleverly written. Posted 17
December 2011 - 02:07 PM Oh, btw, I don't think that guy was
referring to the 'Turing Test' - I'm not an expert on this, but
I think Turing test is more of an 'intelligence' test. Something
that is 'alive' doesn't have to be intelligent by definition.
Even plants are alive, but I've never seen a plant behave
intelligently, have you? Posted 17 December 2011 - 03:53 PM We
are more than our bodies i have experienced this first hand.
