General artificial intelligence: singularity versus anti-singularity and a way out of the theoretical impasse
Keywords:
Inteligência Artificial, Paradigma, Singularidade, Anti-singularidadeAbstract
This article briefly describes central ideas for and against the generic notion of the singularity, an alleged moment in time when artificial intelligence could equal or even supplant human intelligence. It is argued that these opposing theoretical positions tend to cancel each other out and that current technological progress supports the prospect of a very powerful type of artificial intelligence, but one that is still functionally distant from the type proposed by the heralds of the singularity.
