Facts and Anomalies to Keep in Perspective When Designing an Artificial
Intelligence
Abstract
The design of any artificial intelligence is an interdisciplinary
pursuit that requires keeping within perspective, the various properties
of matter and life in the known universe, while remaining cautious of
biases and misconceptions that arise from the limitations of prior
learning, available tools and sensory capabilities. This paper curates a
vast collection of human knowledge gathered during the process of
exploring and questioning the fundamentals of why the mechanisms that
constitute life were built in specific ways, and re-questioning those
facts using anomalies that sometimes contradict or expose errors in
human assumptions of life and intelligence. A meta-analysis of such
knowledge at a single glance also helps identify interesting patterns in
various phenomena that can in-time, spur creative solutions, alter the
direction of research, assist with intelligent inferences and hopefully
result in the identification and creation of artificial intelligence.
