- In "Computing Machines and Intelligence," the English mathematician Alan Turing (1912-1954) wrote, "If each man had a definite set of rules of conduct by which he regulated his life, he would be a machine, but there are no such rules, so men cannot be machines." Using what you now know about Logic, determine whether this statement make sense and explain. Construct a truth table for Turing's statement and determine if this statement is a tautology.arrow_forwardFour mathematicians have a conversation, as follows: ALICE: I am insane. BOB: I am pure. CHARLES: I am applied. DOROTHY: I am sane. ALICE: Charles is pure. BOB: Dorothy is insane. CHARLES: Bob is applied. DOROTHY: Charles is sane. You are also given the following information: Pure mathematicians tell the truth about their beliefs. Applied mathematicians lie about their beliefs. Sane mathematicians' beliefs are correct. Insane mathematicians' beliefs are incorrect. With the preceding clues, classify the four mathematicians as applied or pure, and insane or sane. Briefly explain your logic.arrow_forward"Machine learning is an empirical subject," says the source of the aforementioned quote. What exactly does this clause entail?arrow_forward
- On an island, a group of people are living until a visitor arrives with an odd directive: everyone with blue eyes must leave the island as quickly as possible. Every evening, a flight will depart at 8:00. Everyone can see the colour of everyone else's eyes, but they are blind to their own (nor is anyone allowed to tell them). They also do not know the number of persons who have blue eyes, but they do know that at least one person has them. How long will it take the folks with blue eyes to leave?arrow_forwardSolve the following puzzle by translating statements into logical expressions and reasoning fromthese expressions.Four friends have been identified as suspects for an unauthorized access into a computer system.They have made statements to the investigating authorities.1-Alice said Carlos did it.2-John said I did not do it.3-Carlos said Diana did it.4-Diana said Carlos lied when he said that I did it.If the authorities also know that exactly one of the four suspects is telling the truth, who didit?arrow_forwardThere are facts that were found through experiments and careful observation. Is it a well-organized body of knowledge based on these facts?arrow_forward

He agreed to give it back, but he was threatened with gunfire, according to the thief, who claimed the quaker pulled a pistol at him and screamed, "Now buddy, give me back my wallet or I'll shoot you."arrow_forwardpuzzles that can be solved by translatingstatements into logical expressions and reasoning from theseexpressions using truth tables.arrow_forward
