Dreyfus's critique of artificial intelligence
(AI) concerns what he considers to be the four primary assumptions of AI
research. The first two assumptions he criticizes are what he calls the
"biological" and "psychological" assumptions. The biological assumption
is that the brain is analogous to computer hardware and the mind is
analogous to computer software. The psychological assumption is that the
mind works by performing discrete computations (in the form of
algorithmic rules) on discrete representations or
symbols.
