In more [[philosophic]]al [[genre]]s of [[science fiction]] such as ''The Matrix'' trilogy or ''Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty'', artificial intelligence is generally depicted as being in charge of [[humanity]] with [[negative]] results such as them manipulating humans like [[chess]] pieces. This was usually done to promote [[post-modernism]].<ref>http://www.equip.org/article/the-matrix-unloaded-revelations/</ref>

==History==
Many [[philosopher]]s, including John Searle, have advanced the view that artificial intelligence is an impossible goal. The main argument is that it would be impossible for a [[machine]], a creation of [[man]], to ever achieve actual understanding and comprehension of either [[language]] or the world around it, as the machine is simply a set of [[rule]]s that process symbolic [[information]]. This [[argument]] is summarized by Searle's [[thought experiment]], the Chinese Room.<ref>http://www.iep.utm.edu/c/chineser.htm</ref> Despite being a [[humanist]], Searle's arguments reflect the popular [[religious]] thought that creation can never be as great as the Creator. Thus, his conclusions are self-evident truth to any [[theist]], as a machine is simply a metal object.
Artificial intelligence was most popular between the 1960's and the 1980's, when [[computer]]s were still new and misunderstood. [[Alan Turing]] was responsible for much of the fever of attempting to create intelligent computers, and with the publication his paper ''Computing Machinery and Intelligence'', created a famous test which would later be known as the [[Turing test]]. The more un[[scientific]] elements of the AIs, in particular they're eventually evolving to develop a mind indistinguishable from that of a human, had its roots from various 18th and 19th century philosophers, in particular the school of thought known as self-organization which was an update to [[naturalism]].<ref>http://www.equip.org/article/the-matrix-unloaded-revelations/</ref>
