Speech Title: Science of Mind as New Foundation of Artificial Intelligence
Abstract: Does intelligence arise from brain or mind? This is a dilemma in 21th century. The wrong answer to this question will certainly lead the research efforts into the wrong direction. In this keynote speech, I will share with the audience the astonishing fact which supports the claim that intelligence arises from mind, but not from brain. This truth helps us to open the door toward establishing the Science of Mind which will be the New Foundation of Artificial Intelligence. I will first go through the history of Artificial Intelligence, in which AI 1.0 was primarily focused on machine thinking while AI 2.0 was intensively focused on machine learning. Then, I will outline some extremely important findings about: 1) why AI 1.0 and AI 2.0 are not the foundation of AI, and 2) why AI 3.0, which is a framework toward achieving machine's self-intelligence, should be the authentic foundation of AI. More details of our research findings could be found inside the published book: "Xie M., Chen H. and Hu Z. C., (2021), New Foundation of Artificial Intelligence, World Scientific Publishing Co., 404pp".
