People can be extremely intelligent, have taken a critical thinking course and know logic inside and out. Yet they may just become clever debaters, not critical thinkers, because they are unwilling to look at their own biases. | Carol Wade Continue reading Biases and Critical Thinking Carol Wade
AI is neither artificial nor intelligent. Rather, artificial intelligence is both embodied and material, made from natural resources, fuel, human labor, infrastructures, logistics, histories, and classifications. AI systems are not autonomous, rational, or able to discern anything without extensive, computationally intensive training with large datasets or predefined rules and rewards. | Kate Crawford Continue reading AI Is Neither Artificial nor Intelligent Kate Crawford (2022)
Unintelligent people are more easily misled by other people, intelligent people are more easily misled by themselves. | Gurwinder Bhogal Continue reading The Intelligence Trap Gurwinder Bhogal

Intelligence: An emergent system’s ability to respond to its environment in order to improve its conditions, perpetuate itself and maximize its future freedom of action. | Richard Yonck Continue reading Intelligence: an Emergent System’s Ability to Respond to Its Environment Richard Yonck
Intelligence can be described as the ability to perceive or infer information, and to retain it as knowledge to be applied towards adaptive behaviors within an environment or context. | Wikipedia Continue reading What Is Intelligence? Wikipedia
In this book, Future Minds, Richard Yonck challenges our assumptions about intelligence — what it is, how it came to exist, and its place in the development of life on Earth and possibly throughout the cosmos. Taking a Big History perspective — over the 14 billion years from the Big Bang to the present and Continue reading Future Minds: the Rise of Intelligence From the Big Bang to the End of the Universe by Richard Yonck
This chapter examines the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in knowledge management and conversational leadership, with a focus on chatbot technology. More specifically, it explores the emerging potential of leveraging generative AI systems as powerful critical and creative thinking tools. Continue reading Introduction: Artificial Intelligence Human-like intelligence?
Understanding intelligence is important in an era shaped by rapid technological growth. Confusion often arises from unclear ideas about what intelligence really means, making it hard to distinguish between natural and human-made intelligence. Exploring the various types of intelligence and their roles in living beings and technology helps make this complex topic easier to grasp. Continue reading The Spectrum of Intelligence There are many types of intelligence
Artificial intelligence fundamentally differs from natural intelligence in its origin and nature. Natural intelligence arises from biological processes, but AI results from human engineering. Consequently, AI lacks the consciousness and emotional complexity of living beings. The term “artificial” aptly captures this difference. Continue reading Artificial and Natural Intelligence Exploring the essential difference between natural and artificial forms of intelligence
Intelligence and evolution are deeply intertwined, shaping life on Earth. Understanding their complex relationship is crucial but challenging. Exploring how intelligence has evolved and impacted various species offers valuable insights into its nature and role in our world. Continue reading The Relationship Between Intelligence and Evolution ** Shaping life on earth
Human intelligence is the capacity to acquire, process, and apply knowledge effectively, solving problems, adapting to new situations, and demonstrating creativity and emotional understanding. Continue reading Human Intelligence The capacity to acquire, process, and apply knowledge
Programmed intelligence is when a machine or software has limited abilities based on its original programming. It cannot learn or adapt on its own. Examples are basic devices like thermostats just following preset rules. They have no flexibility or real understanding. Continue reading Programmed Intelligence Is a thermostat or an electronic calculator intelligent?
Biological intelligence is the natural cognitive abilities and adaptive behaviors of organisms, not including humans or animals, arising through evolution. Continue reading Biological Intelligence The natural cognitive abilities and adaptive behaviors of organisms
Systemic intelligence refers to the emergent adaptive capacities that arise within complex systems composed of interacting components. It is the system’s ability to self-organize, adapt, and respond to dynamic conditions in its environment. Continue reading Systemic Intelligence The adaptive, self-organizing ability within complex systems
Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the ability of machines or computer-controlled robots to perform tasks usually associated with human intelligence. Continue reading Artificial Intelligence ** The ability of machines to perform tasks usually associated with human intelligence
Artificial intelligence is evolving rapidly, reshaping our world. Some argue that AI isn’t truly intelligent because it lacks human-like consciousness and emotions. However, this narrow view overlooks AI’s unique strengths and potential to complement human intelligence, driving innovation and progress in tackling complex global challenges. Continue reading Why the Generative AI Intelligence Argument Is Irrelevant Redefining intelligence in the age of GenAI
