[Fis] FIS Discussion Session on AI

[Pedro C. Marijuán]

Dear FIS Colleagues,

Many thanks to Yixin and Eric for their contributions. Both represent 
interesting (partial) approaches to the brave new world that AI and 
related technologies are in the process of enacting.

I had the opportunity to briefly discuss with Yixin on the AI Paradigm. 
My basic point of view is that we all are still ignoring the general 
nature of intelligence.
There is a biological root (exactly, cellular) that very few people 
consider and try to connect with neuronal or social manifestations of 
intelligence.
Failing to see the way the living cell strategically organizes its 
processing resources to enact a life cycle, means leaving in the pure 
air the crucial use of our own informational resources to, yes, advance 
our own lives.

Eric's contribution is an step on that direction, but within the formal 
approaches to info/meaning/knowledge. Insufficient thus.
The problem is that we as individuals disappear from the 
scientific-technological landscape --only left for datafication, for 
control.
The human life cycle's global intelligence is mainly handled via (mostly 
social) emotions, also an ill-defined, ill-understood territory in 
science...
That our social emotions are completely misunderstood and mishandled at 
the social level is horribly seen these days/months/years...

I disagree with the critical, negativist approaches to AI, which I think 
has a great merit and transformative possibilities --- if, and only if, 
it is accompanied by a deep scientific change.

Call it new paradigm, social information or whatever. I see more alive 
than ever the original goals of this list 25 years ago: Foundations of 
Information Science!

Best wishes to all,

Pedro
