  1. Artificial Intelligence:Computers do not think Brian Stuart Vanessa Hong Ian Yunker Jarred Miranda Kevin Cronin Nick Stefanow

  2. No Free Will • Humanity reason or logic or any of the other things that computers can do • Humanity = intuition, sensuality, and emotion. • Can machines be creative?

  3. Computers can’t think because they don’t have a consciousness… What is a consciousness? • the quality or state of being aware especially of something within oneself • state or fact of being conscious of an external object, state, or fact • AWARENESS; especially : concern for some social or political cause • the state of being characterized by sensation, emotion, volition, and thought : MIND • the totality of conscious states of an individual • the normal state of conscious life • the upper level of mental life of which the person is aware as contrasted with unconscious processes

  8. Computers Cannot Surpass Man • Computers are limited by their creators • While they can do some things faster than humans, everything they know or can do is derived from some human input

  9. COMPUTERS CAN’T THINK • No free will • No consciousness • No emotions • No creativity • No learning through experience • Programmed by man therefore…
