Brian Cantwell Smith's new book is a Heidegger- and Haugeland-inspired critique of artificial intelligence that aims to delimit what AI can, and cannot, tell us about the nature of the mind and its place in the world. At this afternoon symposium, we will introduce and critically discuss the central theses of Smith's book, with Smith present to respond and participate in the conversation.
