  • First time I've come across the Chinese Room, but it's pretty obviously flawed. It's not hard to see that collectively the contents of the room may understand Chinese in both scenarios. The argument boils down to "it's not true understanding unless some component part understands it on its own" which is rubbish - you can't expect to still understand a language after removing part of your brain
