Embodied AI as Science: Models of Embodied Cognition, Embodied Models of Cognition, or Both?

This paper discusses the identity of embodied AI, i.e. it asks the question exactly what it is that makes AI research embodied. From an engineering perspective, it is fairly clear that embodied AI is about robotic, i.e. physically embodied systems. From the scientific perspective of AI as building models of natural cognition or intelligence, however, things are less clear. On the one hand embod...

What abstract conditions concerning embodiment are necessary, together with formal conditions, for a specification of sufficient conditions for cognition? A material environment does more than realise one formal specification. There is no one base specification on which all the formal specifications that it realises supervene. Thus a relationship with a material environment may defy comprehensi...
