i finished my cs degree like 3 months before claude code released, and so so many of my peers seemed to just hate it or find it incredibly boring

to be a british prime minister is to have several “fix everything” buttons on your desk and the knowledge that if you press them then the public will hate you

yeah i think it’s a bad argument, he’s basically just gesturing to the idea that humans have some unmeasurable and unsimulable property that gives us “understanding” beyond our physical systems

oliver @eikopf.com · 28/09/2026
look i know this is the wikipedia version of his defense but god this guy is annoying
Searle notes that (in this simple version of the reply) the "system" is nothing more than a collection of ordinary physical objects; it grants the power of understanding and consciousness to "the conjunction of that person and bits of paper" [29] without making any effort to explain how this pile of objects has become a conscious, thinking being. Searle argues that no reasonable person should be satisfied with the reply, unless they are "under the grip of an ideology", 29] In order for this reply to be remotely plausible, one must take it for granted that consciousness can be the product of an information processing "system", and does not require anything resembling the actual biology of the brain.Searle then responds by simplifying this list of physical objects: he asks what happens if the man memorizes the rules and keeps track of everything in his head? Then the whole system consists of just one object: the man himself.
Searle argues that if the man does not understand Chinese then the system does not understand Chinese either because now "the
system" and "the man" both describe exactly the same object. 291

searle’s whole thing is that there isn’t a “mind” present somewhere in the machine-program complex

oliver @eikopf.com · 28/09/2026
it’s an argument against machine consciousness though?
