Artificial Intelligence Study: A Two-Sided Being - Teachings from Book of Changes

Abstract:

To refer to Book of Changes and the complicated aspects of artificial intelligence, the paper holds that artificial intelligence study is a two-sided being. On the one hand, artificial intelligence study is a “conflicted” being, which concerns the universally acknowledged argument “Can Machines Think” and the “conflicts” of diverse probing approaches, taking Symbolism, Connectionism and Behaviorism for instance. On the other hand, artificial intelligence study is a “compromised” being, which implies that a variety of factors function spontaneously and together, regarding the communication of science and philosophy, the cooperation of the related disciplines, the transformation of theories and practice, the unity of computer and man as well as the facilitation of scientists’ research and the participation of society.
