I have been looking at two fairly recent anthologies about AI.

Rainer Born, ed. _The Case Against Artificial Intelligence_.  This is
published in 1987 by Croom Helm and contributors include Searle,
Hubert Dreyfus, and Hilary Putnam.

K.A. Mohyeldin Said et. al. eds., _Modelling the Mind_.  Oxford Univ.
Press 1990.  Another excellent anthology, with a new essay on the
Turing Test from Donald Davidson, another article by Davidson on
"Representation and Interpretation", and lots of other great stuff,
an article "The Myth of Original Intentionality" by Daniel Dennett.
Other contributors include psychologists, philosophers and physiologists
like P.N. Johnson-Laird of Princeton and T. Poggio of MIT.

In short, two great anthologies.  Enjoy.
