If Brains are Computers, Who Designs the Software? - with Daniel Dennett
The Royal Institution
Daniel Dennett's Royal Institution lecture on whether the brain is a computer and where its software comes from. He argues that minds are built by evolution and culture, with competence arising without comprehension.
Cited as an excellent entry point to Dennett's thinking on minds, memes and competence without comprehension.
