Artificial Intelligence, Mind and the Scholastics’ Notion of Intellectus

Abstract

For the philosopher, the most critical and fundamental question in the project of Artificial Intelligence is the question of intelligence or cognition in general. From the beginning of the research in “thinking Machining”, or Artificial Intelligence as it later became known, the key question is: What makes a thing intelligent or what constitutes intelligence? Since, intelligence, is a fundamental activity of the mind, the question, has been: Whether the mind is a computer or is the computer a mind? Many philosophers who have and are engaging and interrogating these problematics, do it from the perspective of modern and contemporary philosophy of mind, consciousness and language. The objective of this work is to interrogate the question of “intelligence” in Artificial Intelligence from the perspective of the Scholastics’ notion of Intellectus.
