--- abstract: |- The Turing Test is just a methodological constraint forcing us to scale up to an organisms' full functional capacity. This is still just an epistemic matter, not an ontic one. Even a candidate in which we have successfully reverse-engineered all human capacities is not guaranteed to have a mind. The right level of convergence, however, is total robotic capacity; symbolic capacity alone (the standard Turing Test) is underdetermined, whereas full neurosimilitude is overdetermined. altloc: - http://www.cogsci.soton.ac.uk/cgi/psyc/newpsy?11.078 chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: 'Green (2000) Is AI the Right Method for Cognitive Science?, PSYCOLOQUY 11(061)' confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: [] creators_name: - family: Harnad given: Stevan honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 2000 date_type: published datestamp: 2001-06-26 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/16/49 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: ~ edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: [] editors_name: [] eprint_status: archive eprintid: 1649 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/text_html.png;/1649/1/psyc.00.11.078.ai%2Dcognitive%2Dscience.18.harnad full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: 0 item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: |- artificial intelligence, behaviorism, cognitive science, computationalism, Fodor, functionalism, Searle, Turing Machine, Turing Test. lastmod: 2011-03-11 08:54:43 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: 78 pagerange: ~ pubdom: FALSE publication: Psycoloquy publisher: ~ refereed: TRUE referencetext: |- Chiappe, D.L. & Kukla, A.
