Abstract

Roger Penrose is, to many people, one of the interdisciplinary think- ers par excellence today. His critic on the strong Artificial Intelligence is one of the most important in the scope of the debate about AI. This text contains one of the most philosophical features of his thought: Platonism. In this paper we will see to what extent Penrose makes a defense of this conception —regarding mathematics— and how to use it in favor of his position in the AI debate.
