Even though this book has more than 15yrs, is prety updated, since most philosopical questions in the book are still unanswered or have been resolved as the author expected! Ah, so funny, sometimes a bit nerdy-funny hellooooo, green slimy aliens that were not exactly necessary for proving a point.
Nice introduction to the field of A. Some parts might be a bit dated the parallel distributed processing part where it is presented as the most promising thing that could ever happen in A.

FREDDY was able to recognise a variety of objects and could be instructed to assemble simple artefacts, such as a toy car, from a random heap of components. A language is a system of signs having meaning by convention. Traffic signs, for example, form a mini-language, it being a matter of convention that, for example, the hazard-ahead sign means hazard ahead.
This meaning-by-convention that is distinctive of language is very different from what is called natural meaning, exemplified in statements like 'Those clouds mean rain' and 'The fall in pressure means the valve is malfunctioning'.
An important characteristic of full-fledged human languages, such as English, which distinguishes them from, e. A productive language is one that is rich enough to enable an unlimited number of different sentences to be formulated within it.
It is relatively easy to write computer programs that are able, in severely restricted contexts, to respond in English, seemingly fluently, to questions and statements, for example the Parry and Shrdlu programs described in the section Early AI Programs. However, neither Parry nor Shrdlu actually understands language.
An appropriately programmed computer can use language without understanding it, in principle even to the point where the computer's linguistic behaviour is indistinguishable from that of a native human speaker of the language see the section Is Strong AI Possible? What, then, is involved in genuine understanding, if a computer that uses language indistinguishably from a native human speaker does not necessarily understand?
There is no universally agreed answer to this difficult question. According to one theory, whether or not one understands depends not only upon one's behaviour but also upon one's history: in order to be said to understand one must have learned the language and have been trained to take one's place in the linguistic community by means of interaction with other language-users.
