Smart or Church land and Searle or Jackson.

Smart and Church land both argue that we can fully identify mental states and processes with brain states and processes, with
nothing left out about the mind. Jackson argues that conscious sensations can’t be fully understood with brain science. Searle argues
that conscious understanding of meaning has involved more than syntactic manipulation that computers can do. Contrast the
arguments of Smart or Churchland with those of either Searle or Jackson. Assess the strength of the arguments. Then, using what
you have said before, discuss whether we could in principle ever gain a complete scientific understanding of the human mind or
whether we could create a computer that has a genuine understanding of what we say to it. You should not use any online
paraphrasing resource. No more than 15% of your paper should be quotations. Use quotations from the book The Norton
Introduction of Philosophy.
