[net.ai] Camus, Turing, and the Devil incarnate.

There is a problem here...  I think that complexity is not the way to go,
but I'm no expert.  If we were to make a machine that by its complexity
achieved conciousness, how would we recognise this?  Lacking any common
experience or needs, the consious electronic computer would not think in
the same way that we do.  I don't dabble in AI much, but I watch with
interest.  If anyone has solved this problem, please point me to the
solution.
