Artificial General Intelligence has traditionally used games as a testbed to develop domain-agnostic game playing techniques. Yet games are about more than winning. This chapter reviews recent efforts that have broadened the ways Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used in games, covering: modeling and managing player experiences, creating novel game structures based in interacting with AI, and enabling AI agents to make games. Many of the techniques used to address these challenges have been ad hoc approaches to solving specific problems. This chapter discusses open challenges in each of these areas and the potential for cognitive architectures to provide unified techniques that address these challenges.

The article discusses the task of creation of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), that is, an artificial intelligence system that approaches the functional capabilities of natural intelligence. Emphasis is made on the leading role of Sberbank in updating and organizing a special research program in order to develop this problem, which is of strategic importance for Russia. It has been established that the successful implementation of this program presupposes solving fundamental methodological issues that require input of philosophers - specialists in the field of epistemology and methodology of science. We show the relations of the concepts of “artificial” and “natural,” “strong” and “weak,” “general” and “narrow” intelligence. The article reveals the theoretical difficulties associated with a clear definition of the properties of general intelligence and the ways of its practical implementation. The author draws attention to the importance of studies of consciousness for the development of general artificial intelligence and comes to the conclusion that the priority issues are using the results of the phenomenological analysis of subjective reality, its value-semantic and op-erational structures. The paper discusses these issues in detail, as they are of direct relevance to the construction of new cognitive architectures. The latter make it possible, to go beyond the limits of “narrow” artificial intelligence and create AGI with a high degree of autonomy and independent solutions to a wide range of problems in different environments. It demonstrates the limitation of Turing's operationalist methodology that excludes the use of the results of special studies of consciousness as a subjective reality. Application of such results is associated with the development of post-Turing methodology, which opens up significant opportunities for creating an AGI.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning promise to make major changes to the relationship of people and organizations with technology and information. However, as with any form of information processing, they are subject to the limitations of information linked to the way in which information evolves in information ecosystems. These limitations are caused by the combinatorial challenges associated with information processing, and by the tradeoffs driven by selection pressures. Analysis of the limitations explains some current difficulties with AI and machine learning and identifies the principles required to resolve the limitations when implementing AI and machine learning in organizations. Applying the same type of analysis to artificial general intelligence (AGI) highlights some key theoretical difficulties and gives some indications about the challenges of resolving them.

The Mind

Abstract Significant debate on fundamental issues remains in the subfields of cognitive science, including perception, memory, attention, action selection, learning, and others. Psychology, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence each contribute alternative and sometimes conflicting perspectives on the supervening problem of artificial general intelligence (AGI). Current efforts toward a broad-based, systems-level model of minds cannot await theoretical convergence in each of the relevant subfields. Such work therefore requires the formulation of tentative hypotheses, based on current knowledge, that serve to connect cognitive functions into a theoretical framework for the study of the mind. We term such hypotheses “conceptual commitments” and describe the hypotheses underlying one such model, the Learning Intelligent Distribution Agent (LIDA) Model. Our intention is to initiate a discussion among AGI researchers about which conceptual commitments are essential, or particularly useful, toward creating AGI agents.

The state policy of artificial intelligence development in Russia is based on the national strategy approved in 2019 and valid until 2030. To understand the specifics of Russian policy, a national strategy was chosen as the object of research, and the subject of research was declared and latent strategic goals. The study is aimed at assessing the degree of correspondence between the strategic goals of state policy and modern concepts of artificial intelligence development. For the automatic analysis of the texts of the national strategy, similar foreign documents and the global array of publications, content analysis was used. The eight largest bibliographic databases have identified many original scientific articles on artificial intelligence. Content analysis of this array made it possible to identify six approaches (algorithmic, test, cognitive, landscape, explanatory and heuristic) to the construction of a concept for the development of artificial intelligence. The latter approach is the most end-to-end, allowing generalizing the rest of the approaches. Further analysis was carried out on the basis of a heuristic approach, within which the concepts of narrow, general and super intelligence are highlighted. The text of the national strategy was analyzed for compliance with the three concepts. It was found that the goals announced in the national strategy refer to the concept of artificial narrow intelligence. Analysis of the frequency of occurrence of terms in the strategy revealed latent goals (access to big data and software) that belong to the same concept. The study of the context of several cases of mentioning artificial general intelligence in the strategy only confirmed the general focus on the development of artificial narrow intelligence. The leading countries in the analyzed area are characterized by a strategic focus on the development of technologies for artificial general intelligence and scientific research on artificial superintelligence. The approximate time lag of the Russian strategy from the creation of artificial general intelligence has been determined. To overcome this lag and Russia occupy a leading position in the world, it was proposed to develop a new national strategy for the creation of artificial superintelligence technologies in the period up to 2050

Artificial General Intelligence

We address the question of whether AI, and in particular the Singularity—the notion that AI-based computers can exceed human intelligence—is a fallacy or a great opportunity. We have invited a group of scholars to address this question, whose positions on the Singularity range from advocates to skeptics. No conclusion can be reached as the development of artificial intelligence is still in its infancy, and there is much wishful thinking and imagination in this issue rather than trustworthy data. The reader will find a cogent summary of the issues faced by researchers who are working to develop the field of artificial intelligence and in particular artificial general intelligence. The only conclusion that can be reached is that there exists a variety of well-argued positions as to where AI research is headed.

Artificial General Intelligence

Contemporary debates on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) center on what philosophers classify as descriptive issues. These issues concern the architecture and style of information processing required for multiple kinds of optimal problem-solving. This paper focuses on two topics that are central to developing AGI regarding normative, rather than descriptive, requirements for AGIs epistemic agency and responsibility. The first is that a collective kind of epistemic agency may be the best way to model AGI. This collective approach is possible only if solipsistic considerations concerning phenomenal consciousness are ignored, thereby focusing on the cognitive foundation that attention and access consciousness provide for collective rationality and intelligence. The second is that joint attention and motivation are essential for AGI in the context of linguistic artificial intelligence. Focusing on GPT-3, this paper argues that without a satisfactory solution to this second normative issue regarding joint attention and motivation, there cannot be genuine AGI, particularly in conversational settings.

Drawing on scholarship in journalism studies and the sociology of expectations, this article demonstrates how news media shape, mediate, and amplify expectations surrounding artificial intelligence in ways that influence their potential to intervene in the world. Through a critical discourse analysis of news content, this article describes and interrogates the persistent expectation concerning the widescale social integration of AI-related approaches and technologies. In doing so, it identifies two techniques through which news outlets mediate future-oriented expectations surrounding AI: choosing sources and offering comparisons. Finally, it demonstrates how in employing these techniques, outlets construct the expectation of a pseudo-artificial general intelligence: a collective of technologies capable of solving nearly any problem.
