I expected better insights from a person who has a PhD in AI and spans multiple other fields. I think there is a gap between philosophy and AI, and philosophy has a lot of catching up to do. I'm especially looking at the "hard problem" and "qualia". In the meantime AI people implemented a lot of the activities of the mind and philosophers are still stuck on these toy concepts that don't go so far. Instead, they should focus on the implications of agent-environment learning - reinforcement learning and evolutionary strategies - as the true sources of human intelligence.
