In this paper, I analyse two Bayesian models of Wright’s account respectively proposed by Samir Okasha and Jake Chandler. I argue that both formalizations...
متن کاملNonuniversality explained
The Nonuniversality in Computation Theorem (NCT) states that no computer capable of a finite and fixed number of basic operations per time unit can be universal. This result, obtained in 2005, disproves major prevailing dogmas in computer science, on the strength of several counterexamples that differ significantly from one another. Thus, the NCT shows that the Church-Turing Thesis (CTT) is fal...
