Noam Chomsky Exposes the Real Limits of AI: Why Machines Can’t Understand Language Like Humans Practical Wisdom 2024-10-11 | Join Samuel Marusca in a fascinating discussion with world-renowned linguist and cognitive scientist Noam Chomsky, talking about the future of AI, language, mind, and consciousness. In this interview, Chomsky voices his skepticism about the current state of AI, particularly tools like ChatGPT, which he warns are not as capable as many believe. He unpacks the myths around general artificial intelligence and cautions against viewing machines as conscious or intelligent beings. Chomsky shares his deep skepticism about artificial intelligence, explaining why even a 2-year-old has more understanding and adaptability than the most advanced AI tools like ChatGPT. According to Chomsky, AI systems like ChatGPT don’t truly “think” or understand language; they only execute pre-programmed patterns and algorithms. Highlighting the risks of believing in AI as a solution for human problems, Chomsky explains why machine learning lacks the genuine insight or awareness that defines human thought. This thought-provoking conversation challenges common assumptions about AI’s capabilities and explores why machines remain tools—programs running patterns, not entities capable of understanding or generating language in a truly meaningful way.📍 SUBSCRIBE: youtube.com/@Practical.Wisdom?sub_confirmation=1#NoamChomsky #AI #practicalwisdom #motivation #ChatGPT #Language #FutureOfAI #CognitiveScience #ArtificialIntelligence

John Lennox: Are Miracles REAL? (Brilliant Answer!) Practical Wisdom 2024-03-01 | Are miracles even possible? In this enlightening answer, Oxford Mathematician John Lennox challenges the skepticism surrounding miracles (such as the resurrection of Jesus), particularly dissecting David Hume's famous argument.

He explores C.S. Lewis's analogy focusing on the difference between the laws of nature and the laws of man, and demonstrates how miracles are not only compatible with science but also supported by it.

Oxford Theologian: I Lost My FAITH In Atheism (with Alister McGrath) #cslewis Practical Wisdom 2023-10-27 | Why do We Feel There must be MORE to Life Than This? Alister McGrath explains we’ve been created to relate to something beyond us. This is why we have a sense of absence and an emptiness in us where we feel there ought to be a presence, and feel that absence even though we don't know what it is. There's a deep longing in us for something beyond this world and this is why we feel this emptiness, and the need to fulfil a relational absence. According to C. S. Lewis, Christianity is not so much a set of ideas, but fulfilling who we are meant to be. McGrath also discusses the concept of chronological snobbery, the art of memory, and the journey of a soul, drawing from C S Lewis’s work, Mere Christianity. If you've ever wondered why C.S. Lewis, the author of Narnia, continues to captivate hearts and minds, this video is for you!
