Lovelace Birthday

Celebrating Ada Lovelace's Birthday

The Lovelace Lecture, 6.30-7.30pm, Dec. 9

Did Turing endorse the computational theory of mind?

Diane Proudfoot, University of Canterbury

Many, if not most, theorists assume that Turing anticipated the computational theory of mind. I argue that his account of intelligence and free will lead to a new objection to computationalism. 

Venue: A4 Lecture Theatre

The conference party will be held on the eve of Ada's 205 birthday, which falls on December 10.
