What is Searle about?

John Searle argues against strong AI, the view that appropriately programmed computers are minds, in his Chinese Room thought experiment. Searle imagines himself in a room receiving Chinese symbols, manipulating other symbols based on rules in books, and producing output also in Chinese symbols, yet argues he would not understand Chinese despite behaving like a Chinese speaker. Strong AI is mistaken because following a computer program is not sufficient for minds or understanding.
