- 5. CLASSDISCUSSION • We influence others. We influence ourselves. • Others influence us. Emotions play an important role. • Awareness (conscious thought) may play a scarce role. • Do we apply prediction loops to others? • Are humans responsible for their actions?
- 6. Marvin Minsky • American Cognitive Scientist • Well-Recognized Artificial Intelligence Scientist • SNARC (1951) • Founder MIT AI Laboratory (1959) • Turing Award Winner (1969) • Society of Mind Theory (1970s) • Intelligence is the product of the interaction of non-intelligent parts • Recall: Words are meaningful concepts comprised of meaningless letters. • The Emotion Machine (2006) • Humans are machines with intelligence arising from many unintelligent, semi-autonomous agents of the brain. • Minsky did not believe there to be a creator and ruler of the universe, and source of all moral authority; a supreme being.
- 7. Myths • Thinking is separate and distinct from emotion • Logical thinking is separate and distinct from emotional thinking • We have emotional “states” distinct from our thoughts • Emotions are inherently good or bad • We can feel the emotions of others • Humans uniquely feel emotions because we are made up of fundamentally different materials than animals
- 8. Key Questions • How do the physical systems in our bodies and brains produce feelings and thoughts? • What are the relevant components of the physical systems? • How do non-intelligent components collaborate to realize intelligence? • Is there really more than one intelligence? • Are we really intelligent?
- 9. How Your Emotional Abilities Develop • Your brain is comprised of networked neurons plus other cells and support. • Your brain develops while trapped inside your head and body. • Your brain develops within a reality it can never truly know. • Your brain develops interacting with the reality within its body (learns body budgeting). • Your brain in your head in your body develops interacting with other brains in other heads in other bodies through the senses. • These interactions contribute meaningfully to who you are and what you “care about” (feel concern, interest, or importance) today and in your future. • What you care about (or what you think others you care about care about) is strongly connected to what you experience emotion about.
- 10. Why Emotions are so Important • Emotions signal your brain to devote attention to something you care about. • Body Budget • Affective Niche • Emotions form part of the computations your mind makes as it constantly predicts the world around it and what it should do within it. • Emotions do not explicitly provide information regarding cause (affective realism) or action • Whether innate or not, the concepts used in forming your emotional thoughts (all your thoughts) may not be completely accessible to your consciousness (as also was the case for your other senses). • Whether innate or not, the concepts used in forming your thoughts may not all be changeable.
