Beschreibung
Beginning with a brief historic overview of the thought of various philosophical traditions on imagination, this book presents a contemporary Philosophy of Information discourse on what human imagination and imaging are in fact. The focus is laid on the inform-perform and perform-inform dynamic continuum that all of us inevitably apply due to our nature. It also makes a comparison among what Information Technology, Artificial Intelligence and man demonstrate, discussing whether creating robots is a purposeful process of embodying mans mental capacities in a machine, thus an evolutionary step and the creation of a new species. Or, whether Artificial Intelligence just proves that it is possible to achieve some of mans mental capacities by alternative nonhuman means.
