The Architecture of Human-Like General Intelligence

Abstract

This chapter provides an integrative architecture diagram that summarizes several related cognitive architectures, and a defense of this approach to architectural and paradigmatic integration. It is argued that various artificial general intelligence (AGI) architectures, that seem different on the surface, are actually fundamentally conceptually compatible, and differ most dramatically in which parts of cognition they emphasize. Stress is laid on the hypothesis that the dynamics of an AGI system must possess "cognitive synergy", that is, multiple processes interacting in such a way as to actively aid each other when solving problems.
