Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to reflect on the nature of human knowledge and that of the knowledge that finally can dwell in an electronic computer. Three frontiers can be distinguished between these two constitutively different types of knowing: (1) The nature of current physical machines (silicon semiconductor crystal) and its organizational restrictions in relation with the biological tissue, which is autonomous, dynamic, tolerant to failures, self-organizative, and adaptive. (2) The semantics of the available algorithms and programming languages in relation with the evolutionary and reactive (behavior-based) biological programming strategies. (3) The nature of current formal tools in relation with natural language.
