Why is it that we consider sight and sound so important and rarely pay attention, especially not in philosophy, to tasting and smelling? Is it not striking that in practically, all our efforts to create mirror images of the human being, that are supposed to grow much more intelligent than us, computers, robots, we focus on giving these entities the ability to see and to hear and sometimes even to feel, but that we don’t really care whether they are able to taste or smell? Also, when we try to give them that capacity, we miserably fail.
