# Universality and the Limits of Computation * pg 134,135 - generalized turing principle (make sure you can walk through DD's reasoning) [Summary of 'Computing Machinery And Intelligence' (1950) by Alan Turing](https://www.jackhoy.com/artificial-intelligence/2015/03/22/summary-of-computing-machinery-and-intelligence-alan-turing.html) ### TODO * [Turing Machine](Turing%20Machine.md) vs [Finite State Automata](Finite%20State%20Automata.md) * How does Turing principle relate to self similarity? (may want to update notes on [Self-Similarity](Self-Similarity.md) / [Self Similarity - Dr Johnsons Criteria](Self-Similarity.md#Dr%20Johnsons%20Criteria)) * Address open questions in: [Is Logical Consistency a greater governing force than The Laws of Physics?](Is%20Logical%20Consistency%20a%20greater%20governing%20force%20than%20The%20Laws%20of%20Physics?.md) * [What is Computation?

[ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/share/e/673ca147-4f0c-8006-81be-404c57dd2309) * Is the brain a universal computer? Is it digital or analogue? * Are human brains discrete or analogue? How would deutsch argue for this? Penrose? * Address todo question in [Computation is a Physical Process](Computation%20is%20a%20Physical%20Process.md) * [Reach and Constraints](Reach%20and%20Constraints.md) ## Add / Update * [Is the Universe a Computer?](Is%20the%20Universe%20a%20Computer?.md) * --- Date: 20241201 Links to: Tags: References: * []()
