The Difference between Man and Computer
What makes people different from computer programs? What is the missing element that our theories dont yet ______ for? The answer is simple: People read newspaper stories for a reason: to learn more about ______they are interested in. Computers, on the other hand, dont. In fact,computers dont ______ have interests; there is nothing in particular that they are trying to find out when they read. If a computer ______is to be a model of story understanding ,it should also read for a purpose.
Of course ,people have several goals that do not make ______ to attribute to computers. One might read a restaurant guide ______order to satisfy hunger or entertainment goals, or to ______a good place to go for a business lunch. Computers do not get hungry, and computers do not have business lunches.
However ,these physiological and social goals give ______to several intellectual or cognitive goals. A goal to satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find ______ about the name of a restaurant which ______ the desired type of food ,how expensive the restaurant is,the location of the restaurant, etc. These are goals to ______ information or knowledge, what we are calling ______ goals. These goals can be held by computers too; a computer ______ want to find out the location of a restaurant ,and read a guide in order to do so ______ the same way as a person might. While such a goal would not ______out of hunger in the case of the computer,it might well arise out of the goal to learn more about restaurants.
