^ above is a brief interview with an expert/some guy interested in "AI", but the COMMENTS section is where the real payoff is... the debate about What Is Mind/Intelligence etc. is worth taking a few minutes out to read, analyze, and ponder...

The Chinese Room (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_room) thought experiment is very applicable to this article, <-- read if you're not familiar (but are interested in this kind of "deep thought" stuff)
