ISBN: 9781495205859 / Angielski / Miękka / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nearly everyone believes strongly in the concept of free will. It seems natural that when we decide to do or say something, we are acting out of our own particular knowledge and interests, and making choices. What could be more reasonable than that? The answer is: everything else in the universe. Just because we have come to a conclusion that it must be the case, does not make it so. Understanding this counter-intuitive concept of free will takes a deep insight into human nature, and how that came about. For years we did not believe that the animals, sea creatures, and certainly not insects,...

Determinism is not only a fundamental precept of science, but it is the only rational explanation for human behavior. Unbeknownst to most, lying beneath the layers of sensitive topics like politics, religion, responsibility, and morality, are the fundamental differences over...

Free Will: Its Refutation, Societal Cost and Role in Climate Change Denial
ISBN: 9781499167641 / Angielski / Miękka / 56 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While the author's previous book on the matter, "Exploring the Illusion of Free Will, Second Edition, " is a popular work, this brief discourse is decidedly and robustly academic. It will regrettably prove inaccessible to many physical and social science professors who are, as evident by the profusion of elementally flawed free will defenses published by major peer-reviewed journals, far more adept at learning, communicating and applying concepts and principles than at understanding their fundamental nature. The book focuses exclusively on the physical refutation of the free will construct,...

Free Will in Machines: Essays on Intelligence and Consciousness
ISBN: 9780692233771 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most of us believe we have free will. We believe that to the extent allowed by our circumstances, we each choose what we do, what we say, and what we think. This notion of freedom carries along with it the implication of personal responsibility for those actions. By being free to make our own decisions, we assume at least some responsibility for the consequences of those decisions. Is it possible for a machine to have this same free will? Are machines capable of achieving the prerequisite level of consciousness to be held accountable for their own actions? In science fiction from Asimov's "I,...
