Are thinking computers mathematically possible? [7]âIs it mathematically possible for a computer to think as well as a human can? Does the mathematics of computation contain anything to prohibit machines from thinking?âFFB597

No: computers are limited by Gödel's theoremsâGödels theorem proves that a computer cant in principle operate with human understanding (see detailed text). Gödels incompleteness theorems are the Achilles heel of mechanism. John Lucas (1961).â59C6EF

Improved machinesâA beefed-up machine can recognise the truth of the Gödel sentence. Such a machine defeats Lucass argument, because it shows that a formal system can evade Lucass Gödelizing ability.âEF597B

The Gödelian insight has already been formalisedâPrograms have been developed that can derive Gödels theorems. The Gödelian insight has, in effect, been formalised.â98CE71

Gödelization procedure algorithmically specifiableâThe mathematical Gödelization process can be formalised. It is meta in the sense that a formal mathematical processes is being used to reason about a mathematical process.â98CE71

Proof has been formalised into a program
Proof has been formalised into a programâUsing the Boyer-Moore theorem prover, Gödelâs theorem has been derived from a basic set of axioms by a computer in basically the same way that Gödel proved it himself.â98CE71
