Wiener, Norbert. "The Brain and Machine." In Dimensions of Mind. Sidney Hook, ed. New York: New York UP, 1960,.
Computers "with second-generation functions (that is the ability to program or reprogram themselves) could take on a responsiveness akin to feelings" (quoting J. Bierman, "Automated Theatre," q.v. under Drama Criticism). See for early contribution to AI debate by a crucial figure in the development of cybernetics (indeed, inventor of the term).
