Improved machines
TegenArgument

#1093
A beefed-up machine can recognise the truth of the Gödel sentence. Such a machine defeats Lucas's argument, because it shows that a formal system can evade Lucas's Gödelizing ability.

No: computers are limited by Gödel's theorems
No: computers are limited by Gödel's theorems☜Gödels 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).☜59C6EF

Connectionist machine may evade Gödelization
Connectionist machine may evade Gödelization☜A connectionist machine with massively parallel distributed processing capability could in principle reconfigure its own parameters while in the process of computation and arrive at its own semantic metalanguage by inductive means.☜98CE71

Highly complex machine may not be Gödelizable
Highly complex machine may not be Gödelizable☜A qualitative difference in the way computers think may be introduced when they have advanced to a high enough degree of complexity. Such a highly complex machine may recognise the truth of its own Gödel sentence.☜98CE71

Ingenious machines could evade the Gödel argument
Ingenious machines could evade the Gödel argument☜Machines may have mathematical insight, if theyre properly programmed to gauge symmetry and simplicity in patterns of formulae. Such ingenious machines replicate abilities of human mathematicians, and so can evade Gödelization as well as any human.☜98CE71
