- AI-complete - In the field of artificial intelligence, the most difficult problems are informally known as AI-complete or AI-hard, implying that the difficulty of these computational problems is equivalent to solving the central artificial intelligence problem, in other words, making computers as intelligent as people. The usage is analogous to the use of concepts such as NP-complete and NP-hard in complexity theory, which formally describes the most famous class of difficult problems.
- Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature - Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature (1979) is a famous and controversial work by American philosopher Richard Rorty. In this book, Rorty attempts to dissolve so-called philosophical problems instead of solving them by showing that they are in fact pseudo-problems that only exist in the language-game of Analytic philosophy.
