ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE - NON HUMAN MIND

The living organisms - human and animals functions by a level of intelligence which emanate from the mind

In this article we are exploring the Animal Intelligence

Enjoy it.

Animal Cognition

Which is also known as Cognitive Ethology, is the title given to a modern approach to the "mental capacities" of animals. It has developed out of comparative Psychology, but had also been strongly influenced by the approach of "ethology, behavioral ecology and evolutionary psychology.
Much of what used to be considered under the title of "animal intelligence" is now thought of under this heading. Animal Language acquisition, attempting to discern or understand the degree to which cognition can be revealed by linguistic-related study, has been controversial among cognitive linguists.

Philosophy Of Artificial Intelligence

In 1950, Alan M. Turing published Computer and Intelligence in Mind in which he proposed that machines could be tested for intelligence using questions and answers. This process is now Named the Turing Test. The term artificial intelligence (AI) was first used by John McCarthy Who considered it to mean the science and engineering of making intelligent machines. It can also refer to intelligence as exhibited by an artificial (*man-made, non-natural, manufactured) entity. Artificial intelligence is studied in overlapping field of Computer science, psychology, neuroscience and engineering, feeling with intelligent behavior, learning and adaptation and usually developed using customised machines or Computer.

Research in Artificial Intelligence

The Research in AI is Concerned with producing machines to automate tasks requiring intelligent behavior. Examples include control, planning and scheduling, also the ability to answer diagnostic and consumer questions, handwriting, natural language, speech and facial recognition. As such the study of AI has become an engineering discipline, focused on providing solutions to real life problems, knowledge mining, software applications, strategy games like Computer chess and other video games.

Limitation of AI

One of the biggest limitations of AI is in the domain of actual machine comprehension. Consequentially natural Language and understanding and connectionism (were behavior of neural network is investigated) are areas of research and planning.

Conclusion

The debate about the nature of mind is relevant to the development of Artificial Intelligence. If the mind is a thing separate from or higher than the functioning of the brain, then hypothetically it would be much difficult to recreate within the machines, if it were possible at all.
If, on the other hand, the mind is no more than the aggregated functions of the brains then it will be possible to create a machines with recognisable mind (though possible with computers different from today's). However, lots of progress has been achieved in this direction.
