Most vision is unconscious. So what makes the conscious bits so special? My article in the conversation explores this question.

If you're around Birmingham on March 19th, consider coming to a screening of Ex Machina.

Only £3, and followed by a panel discussion about robots with Lucy Olser, Michael Quinn, and me!

@DominicCottrill Thanks! Yes i have it on the reading list but was hoping for something more introductory.

[Henry Taylor @htaylorphil]

Help!
Can anyone recommend some introductory level stuff on Turing machines, Turing completeness, the halting problem etc.? I need it for a masters level course, and some of the students haven’t done philosophy before.

[Henry Taylor @htaylorphil]

@dioscuri any ideas?

With an aging population, we will soon be facing a crisis of eldercare. @emilykenway tells us whether the solution could lie with robots.

Should robots look after the elderly?

Ever had an argument with someone about what colour something is?

Ever wondered if different people see colours differently?
