title: The Convergence Argument in Mind-Modelling: Scaling Up from Toyland to the Total Turing Test creator: Harnad, Stevan subject: Cognitive Psychology description: The Turing Test is just a methodological constraint forcing us to scale up to an organisms' full functional capacity. This is still just an epistemic matter, not an ontic one. Even a candidate in which we have successfully reverse-engineered all human capacities is not guaranteed to have a mind. The right level of convergence, however, is total robotic capacity; symbolic capacity alone (the standard Turing Test) is underdetermined, whereas full neurosimilitude is overdetermined. date: 2000 type: Journal (On-line/Unpaginated) type: PeerReviewed format: text/html identifier: http://cogprints.org/1649/1/psyc.00.11.078.ai-cognitive-science.18.harnad identifier: Harnad, Stevan (2000) The Convergence Argument in Mind-Modelling: Scaling Up from Toyland to the Total Turing Test.
