Some thinkers (like the physicist Roger Penrose) have taken this theme further, maintaining that Gödel’s incompleteness theorems have profound implications for the nature of the human mind. Our mental powers, it is argued, must outstrip those of any computer, because a computer is just a logical system running on hardware and our minds can arrive at truths that are beyond the reach of a logical system.
