Extractions: (CNN) Premier Zhu Rongji has told Chinese their standard of living will improve despite entry to the World Trade Organization and uncertainties in the world economy. Zhu has recommended a stimulus package, including deficit financing, to ensure a growth rate of 7 percent. The 73-year-old head of the State Council was on Tuesday morning delivering his Government Work Report on the first day of the National People's Congress, China's parliament. Long-term state bonds to the value of 150 billion yuan will be issued to help boost domestic spending and consumption, including the funding of key infrastructure projects in hinterland provinces. This is the fifth year in a row that the central government has incurred voluminous borrowings to stimulate spending.
Extractions: BEIJING, China Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji has announced a series of measures aimed at tackling China's mounting environmental problems as part of the country's tenth five year economic plan. In his opening address to China's parliament, the National People's Congress (NPC), Monday Zhu addressed a wide range of environmental issues including water shortage, desertification in Northern China, and forest protection in Tibet. MESSAGE BOARD China The announcement came as Zhu set out a cautious blueprint for Chinese economic growth over the next five years, balancing economic reform with concerns for social stability. Setting a relatively modest economic growth target of around 7 percent a year, the Chinese premier's speech focused heavily on the destabilizing side-effects of breakneck development, warning of rising joblessness, unpaid pensions, and rampant corruption.
Chinese Room Argument [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] Article by Larry Hauser, on Searle's wellknown thought experiment opposing the possibility of artificial intelligence. The argument and several counterarguments are considered. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/c/chineser.htm
Extractions: The Chinese Room Argument The Chinese room argument - John Searle's (1980a) thought experiment and associated (1984) derivation - is one of the best known and widely credited counters to claims of artificial intelligence (AI), i.e., to claims that computers do or at least can (someday might) think. According to Searle's original presentation, the argument is based on two truths: brains cause minds , and syntax doesn't suffice for semantics . Its target, Searle dubs "strong AI": "according to strong AI," according to Searle, "the computer is not merely a tool in the study of the mind, rather the appropriately programmed computer really is a mind in the sense that computers given the right programs can be literally said to understand and have other cognitive states" (1980a, p. 417). Searle contrasts "strong AI" to "weak AI". According to weak AI, according to Searle, computers just simulate thought, their seeming understanding isn't real (just as-if) understanding, their seeming calculation as-if calculation, etc.; nevertheless, computer simulation is useful for studying the mind (as for studying the weather and other things).
