Blaise Agüera y Arcas: Artificial Intelligence May Not Be “Artificial” — Life and Intelligence Are Essentially Symbiotic Evolution of Computation

The term “artificial intelligence” (AI) often leads people to assume that computer intelligence is either inferior to human intelligence or that there is an inherent gap between computer intelligence and human intelligence. However, Blaise Agüera y Arcas, Chief Technology Officer for Technology and Society at Google and an AI researcher, has put forward a groundbreaking view: from the perspectives of biological evolution and the essence of computation, the “non-artificial” nature of AI may be far beyond our current understanding. In fact, the underlying logic of human intelligence and AI belongs to the same evolutionary context of computation.   Tracing Dual-Track Evolution: Both the Human Brain and AI Are Iterations of […]
