Colburn (computer science, U. of Minnesota-Duluth) has a doctorate in philosophy and an advanced degree in computer science; he's worked as a philosophy professor, a computer programmer, and a research scientist in artificial intelligence. Here he discusses the philosophical foundations of artificial intelligence; the new encounter of science and philosophy (logic, models of the mind and of reasoning, epistemology); and the philosophy of computer science (touching on math, abstraction, software, and ontology).
Timothy R. Colburn received his Ph.D. in philosophy from Brown University in 1979, and his M.S. in computer science from Michigan State University in 1981. He has worked as a philosophy professor, a computer programmer, and a research scientist in artificial intelligence. He is currently an associate professor of computer science at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. He can be reached via e-mail at tcolburn@d.umn.edu.
