(2.5 marks)
See Turing Test in Text (Chapter 1)
Q.4 "Surely computers cannot be intelligent – they can do only what their programmers
tell them." Is the second statement true, and does it imply the first?
(2.5 marks)
Programmers can give programs the ability to learn using learning rules. The programmer does not tell
the computer exactly what to do in every situation and thus can be surprised by what a computer does in
some situations. This disconnects the first statement from the second. It was not attempted and probably
not useful to argue about whether computers are intelligent or not once the statements are disconnected.
