提出可统一比较人与人工智能的智能定义
On the universal definition of intelligence
- 基于预测能力与获益能力结合定义智能
- 验证预测型定义解释力强但缺行为关联
- 适合研究智能比较与通用人工智能
本文旨在提出一个普适的智能定义,以实现人类与人工智能(AI)的公平、一致比较。随着近年AI技术快速发展,如何评估和对比人与AI智能已成为重要理论问题。现有智能定义多以人类为中心,不适用于实证比较,导致学界缺乏共识。本文基于卡尔纳普的概念澄清方法,提出四项评价标准:与被解释概念的相似性、精确性、丰硕性与简洁性。考察了六种代表性定义:智商测试、复杂问题解决能力、奖励优化、环境适应、学习效率与预测能力,并分析其理论优劣。结果表明,基于预测能力的定义具有较高解释力和可操作性,但难以充分说明预测与行为/收益之间的关系。为此,本文提出扩展预测假说(EPH),将智能定义为准确预测未来并从中获益的能力。通过区分自发与反应式预测,并引入‘获益性’概念,构建统一框架,涵盖创造力、学习与未来规划等智能表现。结论认为,EPH是最契合且普适的智能比较定义。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This paper aims to propose a universal definition of intelligence that enables fair and consistent comparison of human and artificial intelligence (AI). With the rapid development of AI technology in recent years, how to compare and evaluate human and AI intelligence has become an important theoretical issue. However, existing definitions of intelligence are anthropocentric and unsuitable for empirical comparison, resulting in a lack of consensus in the research field. This paper first introduces four criteria for evaluating intelligence definitions based on R. Carnap's methodology of conceptual clarification: similarity to explicandum, exactness, fruitfulness, and simplicity. We then examine six representative definitions: IQ testing, complex problem-solving ability, reward optimization, environmental adaptation, learning efficiency, and predictive ability, and clarify their theoretical strengths and limitations. The results show that while definitions based on predictive ability have high explanatory power and empirical feasibility, they suffer from an inability to adequately explain the relationship between predictions and behavior/benefits. This paper proposes the Extended Predictive Hypothesis (EPH), which views intelligence as a combination of the ability to accurately predict the future and the ability to benefit from those predictions. Furthermore, by distinguishing predictive ability into spontaneous and reactive predictions and adding the concept of gainability, we present a unified framework for explaining various aspects of intelligence, such as creativity, learning, and future planning. In conclusion, this paper argues that the EPH is the most satisfactory and universal definition for comparing human and AI intelligence.
