• No. But that does not prevent computers from having memory, learning, making decisions, playing games etc.

    Computers can't do any of these things, and they never will. They can achieve simulacra of these, but no more.

    Not quite right... Deep Mind has already created a computer who's algorithms can learn how to play and then win at computer games. Have a look at this article in Nature to see details... fascinating stuff.

  • I'm sure that's very sophisticated software, but it still can't learn or play anything. :) It can without any doubt add code and then more code, but as I said above, that's no more than a simulacrum of the real thing.
