چکیده

Computer science has failed abysmally at producing machines which display intelligence. According to Fogel, the last 50 years of effort in artificial intelligence have been on the wrong track, leaving us no closer to the goal than when we started. The wrong track has been the attempt to make the computer imitate our behavior. Scientists striving to build an artificial intelligence load the computer with knowledge on a chosen topic, along with an algorithm to do the associated task. The hope is that the computer will equal or surpass our intelligence for that subject. This approach dates back to the Turing Test, which Fogel points out has been misquoted and misinterpreted almost from day one. Misquoted or not, the Turing Test has a computer pretend to be human, and this paradigm became a signpost saying that the road to artificial intelligence is through mimicry of human behavior. According to Fogel, however, that path leads only to an illusion of intelligence — for example the kind of wooden intelligence exhibited by Deep Blue. If imitation of human intelligence has not led to machine intelligence, then what will? What is intelligence? Fogel is critical in general of researchers in this field for skirting this last question. He believes that if the field of artificial intelligence had started with a proper definition of intelligence then there would have been a better chance of creating it. That is common sense — knowing what you are trying to build is crucial. Fogel therefore gives the following definition of intelligence.
