Sorry, no. It refers to a Gedankenexperiment ... which is his [Searle's] attempt at a refutation to "strong" AI (i.e., that we can build machines that think).
Your clarification makes the Matrix reference I had in mind even more apt.
You are "the one", jheem.
And now that "the one" has come, Wordminstrel can [and should] depart.
Adieu.
It is well that I go in any event.
I have just discovered to my horror that Wordminstrel has become an "enthusiast", and with each new post he climbs higher into the hierarchy, as though into Amemeba's "blue skies", where, eventually, he will surely lose his soul floating in the amorphous ethers ... a friend to all but "the one" who comes.
