| ChatGPT | Logic Texts | Our team from the Dictionary of Arguments had asked ChatGPT about a logic problem from Peter T. Geach: The three farmers Cob, Hob and Nob argue about whether it was "the same witch" who caused all kinds of damage in the village. The question is whether one can establish identity at all with thought objects - non-existent objects. ChatGPT's response clearly missed the mark by assuming the three farmers to be the fictitious objects, which is completely trivial. These persons could just as well be real; the logical problem would still exist. Thus, one level was missing in the search depth, similar to GoogleTranslate years ago, where nested sentences were simplified by omitting partial sentences, i.e. the deepest level was hidden. >Cob/Hob/Nob-problem, >Objects of thought, >Objects of belief, >Intensional objects, >Peter T.

| Objects of Thought | Gärdenfors | I 110 Object of thought/intentional identity/Gärdenfors: example by Peter Geach (1967)(1): the three farmers Cob, Hob and Nob believe that a witch is bothering them, and they wonder if she is the same witch who has done different things. Problem: since there is no witch, there is only one object of thought. Question: is it the same object that the three farmers think of? See also Edelberg (2006) (2) and Jacot (2012)(3). Prototype/Jacot/Gärdenfors: "a witch" is under-determined. Solution: Prototypes. --- I 111 Fixed point/Gärdenfors: is reached, if e.g. one refers to the with with index words and pronomina. However, this fixed point is fragile, which becomes apparent when additional properties are added that are possibly incompatible. Solution: if there is a "meeting of minds", the same conclusions should be drawn. --- I 112 Gärdenfors: such a theory can be called sociocognitive. 1. Geach, P. (1967). Intentional identity.
