Artificial Intelligence: What is it?

Abstract

Based on the principle of dialectic symmetry formulated by the philosophy of dialectic positivism, an interpretation of the concept of "artificial intelligence" is proposed. This principle assumes the existence of a hierarchy of information objects, similar to the hierarchy, which reflects different levels of organization of matter (mechanical, chemical, biological, social). The construction of a hierarchy of information objects - information processing systems - allows us to interpret in the same way the essence of both artificial intelligence and the intelligence that a human being is endowed with. These are information processing systems referring to the highest levels of the specified hierarchy.
