作者简介 · · · · · ·

道格拉斯·理查·郝夫斯台特（Douglas Richard Hofstadter，1945年2月15日－），中文名侯世达，美国学者、作家。他的主要研究领域包括意识、类比、艺术创造、文学翻译以及数学和物理学探索。因其著作《哥德尔、埃舍尔、巴赫》获得普立兹奖（非小说类别）和美国国家图书奖（科学类别）。

侯世达是美国印第安纳大学文理学院认知科学杰出教授，主管概念和认知研究中心。他本人和他辅导的研究生组成“流体类推研究小组”。1977年，侯世达原本属于印第安纳大学的计算机科学系，然后他开始了自己的研究项目，研究心理活动的计算机建模（他原本称之为“人工智能研究”，不久就改称为“认知科学研究”）。1984年，侯世达受聘于密歇根大学，任心理学教授，同时负责人类认识研究。1988年，他回到印第安纳大学，任“文理学院教授”，参与认知科学和计算机科学两个学科，同时...

侯世达曾说过他对“以计算机为中心的宅文化感到不适”。他承认“（他的受众中）很大一部分人是被技术吸引”，但提到他的成果“激励了很多学生开始计算机和人工智能方面的研究”时，他回应说尽管他对此感到高兴，但他本人“对计算机没有兴趣”。那次访谈中他谈到一门他在印第安纳大学教授过两次的课程，在那门课程中，他以“怀疑的眼光审视了众多广受赞誉的人工智能项目和整体的发展”。例如，就国际象棋选手卡斯帕罗夫被超级计算机深蓝击败一事，他评论说“这是历史性的转折，但和电脑变聪明了没有关系”。

【转】侯世达谈geb的中译

[已注销] 2012-09-19 17:44:32

1985年，我在完全偶然的情况下得知有人准备把geb译成中文。我在密歇根大学的同事和友人亚瑟•伯克斯（Arthur Burks）刚从仍然沿用Peking拼法的Beijing大学回来，他无意中提到计算机系的吴允曾和马希文两位教授正在主持这项工作。我惊喜交加，但不无担忧，因为之前在geb被译... (23回应)

介绍一下 Hofstadter，他的研究工作，以及他的书

峰哥何峰 2010-07-07 01:26:29

Hofstadter 是一个罕见的 original thinker. 他对人工智能， cognitive science, computer science 的研究独树一帜。我认为，人工智能，或者有关人类思维能力的研究，自60年代以来已经走入了死胡同（比如80年风靡一时的专家系统，即 expert system)。唯有如 Hofstadter 等少数... (15回应)

What is this book really about?

我觉得这个问题最好在读这书之前就搞清楚。太多人觉得这书在玩文字游戏，故弄玄虚。天大的冤枉啊，无论是Bach还是escher，其实都是用来解释书中概念的analogy. 下面是作者接受wired的采访时说的，标题就叫“by analogy": I can see that many people didn't understand what... (24回应)

Tension 2009-12-16 12:54:43

太多关于哥德尔定理的讨论，都是就着一点感性认识随意发挥，实在太不着边际。我们都不是逻辑学专家（就我自己而言，在朝着专家的方向努力，能否成功还得两说，但至少现在肯定不是），要完全搞清哥德尔的工作然后再去讨论，既无可能也无必要。但在讨论之前，至少要了解哥德尔的... (21回应)

PEAR (起床干活嘞！)

Hofstadter's Law: It always takes longer than you expect, even when you taken into account Hofstadter's Law. Recursive enumeration is a process in which new things emerge from old things by fixed rules. There seem to be many surprises in such processes - for example the unpredictability of the Q-sequence.

Hofstadter's Law: It always takes longer than you expect, even when you taken into account Hofstadter's Law.
Recursive enumeration is a process in which new things emerge from old things by fixed rules. There seem to be many surprises in such processes - for example the unpredictability of the Q-sequence. It might seem that recursively defined sequences of that type posses some sort of inherently increasing complexity of behavior, so that the further out you go, the less predictable they get. This kind of thought carried a little further suggests that suitably complicated recursive systems might be strong enough to break out of any predetermined patterns. And isn't this one of the defining properties of intelligence? Instead of just considering programs composed of procedures which can recursively call themselves, why not get really sophisticated, and invent programs which can modify themselves - programs that can modify programs, extending them, improving them, generalizing them, fixing them, and so on? This kind of "tangled recursion" probably lies at the heart of intelligence.

PEAR (起床干活嘞！)

The drive to eliminate paradoxes at any cost, especially when it requires the creation of highly artificial formalisms, puts too much stress on bland consistency, and too little on the quirky and bizarre, which make life and mathematics interesting. It is of course important to try to maintain consistency, but when this effort forces you into a stupendously ugly theory, you know something is wrong...
