Abstract:
This document is a draft of Chapter 19 from "The Evolution of ROBART," written by H. R. Everett of the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command in San Diego, California. In this chapter, the author explores the theoretical upper limit of robotic intelligence in terms of a machine's ability to actually think like a human being. This issue is basically a natural extension of the very question the author posed in the opening pages of his thesis, almost 25 years ago (Everett, 1982): "There exists at the one end simply a pre-programmed dedicated controller able to repeatedly execute the most complex of instructions and effect the motion of actuators, valve positions, motor speeds, etc. On the other end of the spectrum, however, there are evolving machines that can function on their own, evaluating their changing environment, and reacting as needed to carry out their intended tasks with no human intervention in such a way that they truly appear 'intelligent.' The obvious question arising is 'At what point do these machines become robots?'" In 1982, he was addressing the fuzzy distinction between automated machinery and intelligent robots, whereas in this chapter he contemplates the possibility of "artificial conscious awareness" on the part of "spiritual" machines. The topics he discusses are the meaning of intelligence, particularly the meaning of natural intelligence versus artificial intelligence; artificial common sense; the meaning of consciousness; and unconscious versus subconscious. ; Draft chapter from "The Evolution of ROBART," p1-21, May 2005. The original document contains color images.
