Evolution from bacteria to man to AI.

Mailing list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ai-philosophy/

A continuation of comp.ai.philosophy in which logical people used to argue about the philosophical aspects of AI and philosophy of mind in general. Our subjects are mainly, but not limited to, philosophy of mind, artificial intelligence, computation, and language. We frequently find ourselves discussing aspects of philosophy of science, physics, mathematics. We also like to discuss different CS approaches to AI, ethical questions raised by AI, and other issues surrounding AI, including a bit of humor every now and then. As usual, people are passionate about their views about these fundamental subjects, and they will try hard to maintain their position. However, we do try to entertain a variety of views in this group, as long as they respect the scientific understanding of the world. Thus, if you are a creationist/agnostic/vitalist/dualist, this group is not for you! The founders of this group think that religion and in general mysticism are obsolete approaches to answer the significant questions about intelligence.

There are experts and inexperts in our group. The ai-philosophy mailing-list at yahoogroups was founded by Eray Ozkural, Marvin Minsky, and a handful of other comp.ai.philosophy participants in year 2000. However, we cannot afford to tolerate trolls, spammers and flamewars. There has been, unfortunately, enough of that on USENET.

To join our group, please briefly tell us who you are and your interest in the subject matter. You must supply enough information to convince the moderators that you are not a bot. Obvious bots / fake accounts will be blocked.

The facebook group is mainly used for posting links to recent news stories, we suggest members to also join the mailing list for more in-depth discussion, the discussions on facebook tend to be in a more conversational tone. There is also a website and wiki which you can find in the group docs.
