Should the definition of thought be broadened?
Issue
1
#4061
Is it appropriate to limit the issue to "all important elements of human thinking or understanding?" Should the kinds and levels of thought demonstrated by other creatures (e.g. cats or porpoises) be excluded?
It might be useful, for example, to distinguish two questions here:
The basic question: can computers think at all?
The human-level question: can computers think up to a human level or in a human manner?
