We say that algorithmic processes — even clever ones — are simply ''incapable'' of responding to unexpected events in [[complex system]]s. These require imagination, creativity, and an ability to construct a narrative — qualities not possessed by any [[artificial intelligence]] known to the world today. Expecting preconfigured algorithms to solve novel problems is like expecting Newtonian mechanics to solve problems which, by their existence, [[falsify]] Newtonian mechanics. One needs to construct an entirely new model. | We say that algorithmic processes — even clever ones — are simply ''incapable'' of responding to unexpected events in [[complex system]]s.

Aha, but the very imagination, creativity and narrative construction skills you point to are themselves the product of an algorithm: the algorithm encoded into [[evolution by natural selection]]. | Aha, but the very imagination, creativity and narrative construction skills you point to are themselves the product of an algorithm: the algorithm encoded into [[evolution by natural selection]]. | ||
Here they might appeal to {{br|Darwin’s Dangerous Idea}}: it was [[evolution by natural selection]], after all, and ''only'' [[evolution by natural selection]] that operated 370 million years | Here they might appeal to {{br|Darwin’s Dangerous Idea}}: it was [[evolution by natural selection]], after all, and ''only'' [[evolution by natural selection]] that as operated relentlessly, fpr 370 million years since the first legged fish when they crawled out of the primordial ooze and onto the shores of a new, terrestrial world. That single algorithm transformed those little flippy-finned mudsuckers into the highest type of sentient being yet known in this neighbourhood of the Galaxy: the [[ISDA ninja]]. ''So how can you say [[algorithm]]s can’t be intelligent?'' | ||
