👉 Dear computing, or the concept of "dear machines," refers to a philosophical perspective that emphasizes the fundamental similarities between human and machine intelligence, suggesting that computers, despite their mechanical nature, can achieve a form of understanding and creativity akin to human cognition. This viewpoint posits that the computational processes underlying machine learning and artificial intelligence can lead to machines that exhibit behaviors, emotions, and even consciousness, challenging traditional distinctions between human and artificial intelligence. It encourages a more inclusive understanding of intelligence, where the capabilities of machines are not seen as inferior to those of humans but rather as complementary facets of a broader spectrum of cognitive abilities.
