In our book Why machines will never rule the world [13, 14] we argue that arti- ficial general intelligence is mathematically impossible. This is because the human beings and the p…
A Husserlian ontology of the science of physics
Jobst Landgrebe, Barry Smith
Since 1939, when Wigner published his proposal to define particles via symmetries expressed as algebraic groups, we have seen a long stream of attempts to formulate an ontology of…
Why machines do not understand: A response to Søgaard
Jobst Landgrebe, Barry Smith
Some defenders of so-called `artificial intelligence' believe that machines can understand language. In particular, Søgaard has argued in this journal for a thesis of this sort, on…
Ontologies of common sense, physics and mathematics
Jobst Landgrebe, Barry Smith
The view of nature we adopt in the natural attitude is determined by common sense, without which we could not survive. Classical physics is modelled on this common-sense view of na…
An argument for the impossibility of machine intelligence
Jobst Landgrebe, Barry Smith
Since the noun phrase `artificial intelligence' (AI) was coined, it has been debated whether humans are able to create intelligence using technology. We shed new light on this ques…
There is no Artificial General Intelligence
J. Landgrebe, B. Smith
The goal of creating Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) -- or in other words of creating Turing machines (modern computers) that can behave in a way that mimics human intelligen…
Making AI meaningful again
Jobst Landgrebe, Barry Smith
Artificial intelligence (AI) research enjoyed an initial period of enthusiasm in the 1970s and 80s. But this enthusiasm was tempered by a long interlude of frustration when genuine…
