Joseph Weizenbaum on Strong Artificial Intelligence - Dictionary of Arguments
Brockman I 48 Strong Artificial Intelligence/Weizenbaum: [Weizenbaum](1) could never decide which of two theses he wanted to defend: AI is impossible! or AI is possible but evil! He wanted to argue, with John Searle and Roger Penrose, that “Strong AI” is impossible, but there are no good arguments for that conclusion. Dennett: After all, everything we now know suggests that, as I have put it, we are robots made of robots made of robots ... down to the motor proteins and their ilk, with no magical ingredients thrown in along the way. >Strong AI/Dennett, >J.
