So what exactly then is the definition of understanding, vs being programmed to act like one understands? Do I, for instance, understand pain when I remove the hand from the hot water, or is it because the reflexes in my brainstem are programmed to? Or do I understand mathematical concepts like the monads I use in Haskell when I probably will fail horribly to descripe them adequately or manipulate them in a proper mathematicial setting?
