If the GLUT is indeed behaving like a human, then it will need some sort of memory of previous inputs. A human’s behaviour is dependent not just on the present state of the environment, but also on previous states. I don’t see how you can successfully emulate a human without that. So the GLUT’s entries would be in the form of products of input states over all previous time instants. To each of these possible combinations, the GLUT would assign a given action.
Memmory is input to. The “GLUT” is just fed all of the things its seen so far back in as input along with the current state of its external enviroment. A copy is made and then added to the rest of the memmory and the next cycle its fed in again with the next new state.
This is basically just the Chinese room argument. There is a room in China. Someone slips a few symbols underneath the door every so often. The symbols are given to a computer with artificial intelligence which then makes an appropriate response and slips it back through the door. Does the computer actually understand Chinese? Well what if a human did exactly the same process the computer did, manually? However, the operator only speaks English. No matter how long he does it he will never truly understand Chinese—even if he memorizes the entire process and does it in his head. So how could the computer “understand”?
