| dc.description.abstract | This study examines the qualitative di"erence between human intelligence and artificial intelligence (AI) through the lens of Immanuel Kant’s philosophy. This di"erence is based on the human mind’s idea of unity and its intuitive ability to limit this unity. Kant argues that, through the regulative use of reason, it is able to obtain conceptual wholes such as God, soul, and universe. We argue that this idea of unity, derived through regulative reason, plays a significant role in distinguishing the human mind from AI. Based on Kant’s idea of unity, our study determines that the human mind constructs a unity such as a formal system. Artificial intelligence, which is made possible by this construction, is inadequate in solving many problems that have shown surprising developments in recent years. We attribute this inadequacy to the inability of computers to model the aforementioned idea of wholeness. We justify this claim through the problem of “narrowing the brute search space” in computational complexity, which is a significant issue in computer science. This problem arises from the lack of a formal procedure for narrowing down a problem space with very large boundaries. When computers lack an e"icient procedure or an analytical solution to the problems they aim to solve, they are forced to try all available solutions. In contrast, the human mind has cognitive abilities that allow it to intuitively narrow down these large problem spaces. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Bu çalışma, insan zekâsı ve yapay zekâ (YZ) arasındaki niteliksel bir farkı Immanuel Kant’ın felsefesinin merceğinden incelemektedir. Bu fark, insan zihninin bütünlük (unity) fikrine ve bu bütünlüğü sınırlama konusundaki sezgisel düşünme kabiliyetine dayanır. Kant, aklın düzenleyici kullanımı yoluyla Tanrı, ruh, evren gibi kavramsal bütünleri elde edebildiğini öne sürer. Kant’ın düzenleyici aklın kullanımı yoluyla elde ettiği bu bütünlük fikrinin insan zihnini yapay zekadan ayırmada önemli bir işleve sahip olduğunu düşünüyoruz. Çalışmamız, Kant’ın bütünlük fikrinden hareketle insan zihninin biçimsel sistem gibi bir bütünlüğü inşa ettiğini tespit etmektedir. | |
