True story: I nearly failed a philosophy of mind exam because I gave a one sentence reply that the answers that a question (on perception) sought were to be found in the discipline of cognitive science and not philosophy! A bit cheeky, but true I thought.
I only passed the exam because I aced the other question about artificial minds in which I knew all about Turing machines and other stuff backwards from my knowledge about computers that my fellow philosophy students didn't.
