Description

Dr Stephen E. Robbins researches AI, cognitive science, psychology and the philosophy of mind. He holds a PhD in cognitive psychology, minoring in computer science with a thesis on Bergson's model of mind vs. the computer model of mind. He's also a former university professor specialising in perception and cognition, a military veteran and spent many years in the tech industry as a software architect and project manager. Dr Robbins is the author of numerous books and papers, the latest being 'The Challenge to AI: Consciousness and Ecological General Intelligence'. In this episode, we discuss metaphysical challenges to AI, the difference between mind and machine, Jean Piaget, J.J. Gibson, ecological psychology, and the life and work of Henri Bergson.
