John Searle’s ‘Chinese room’ argument aims to refute ‘strong AI’ (artificial intelligence), the view that instantiating a computer program is sufficient for having contentful mental states. Imagine a program that produces conversationally appropriate Chinese responses to Chinese utterances. Suppose Searle, who understands no Chinese, sits in a room and

Design inside the Chinese Room
International Journal of Architectural Computing, 2008The Chinese Room paradox is about the role of intentionality and consciousness in human decision making. Here I reflect on the possibilities opened up by this paradox in the world of design and its continuous computerization.

From Chinese Room to Human Window
ICGA Journal, 2010The debate in philosophy and cognitive science about the Chinese Room Argument has focused on whether it is clear that machines can have minds. We present a quantitative argument which shows that Searle’s thought experiment is not relevant to Turing’s Test for intelligence.

Chinese Rooms and Program Portability
The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 2007I argue in this article that there is a mistake in Searle's Chinese room argument that has not received sufficient attention. The mistake stems from Searle's use of the Church-Turing thesis. Searle assumes that the Church-Turing thesis licences the assumption that the Chinese room can run any program.

A Chinese Room that Understands
2002Abstract The thesis of this chapter is that a computer can be programmed (and has been programmed) to understand natural language, in the sense of being able to translate natural language text, to answer in natural language questions put to it in language, and to perform similar tasks which, if performed by a human, would be taken as ...

Minds, programs, and Chinese philosophers: A Chinese perspective on the Chinese room
Sophia, 2004The paper is concerned with John Searle’s famous Chinese room argument. Despite being objected to by some, Searle’s Chinese room argument appears very appealing. This is because Searle’s argument is based on an intuition about the mind that ‘we’ all seem to share. Ironically, however, Chinese philosophers don’t seem to share this same intuition.
