Ben Goertzel is a noted scientist, author, futurist and pioneer in the field of Artificial Intelligence.
Ben states that the human mind does not qualify as a completely ‘General Intelligence’ but lies somewhere on the spectrum between Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) on one end and ‘Narrow AI’ on the other. Therefore, his studies have confirmed our own work that black-box AI will not deliver AGI by mimicking the workings of the human brain (please refer to AI 10).
Ben’s studies show how our brains fool us into believing that we understand our actions and decisions when we don’t. This is one of his reasons to why modelling an AI too closely on the human brain might make it too, vulnerable to false notions.
