Schemel Forum Evening Course:

Artificial Intelligence: Science Fiction or Science Fact?


The course will examine the theory and practice of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Our central questions will be: Can human mental states (e.g. perceptions, beliefs, desires, fears, etc.) be replicated in non-biological systems? We will attempt to determine whether AI has reached (or is reaching) firm scientific footing or remains stalled as mere science fiction.


Andrew La Zella, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Philosophy, The University of Scranton
