Google's CTO Explores Human-AI Intelligence in New Book
Google's CTO of technology and society, Blaise Agüera y Arcas, delves into the shared nature of human and artificial intelligence in his book 'What Is Intelligence?'. He traces their evolution and argues that collective cooperation is key to their development.
Agüera y Arcas explores the similarities between biology and AI models using Lynn Margulis's theory of symbiogenesis. He views intelligence as the ability to predict and influence the future, with human brains evolving to be computational and process information through predictions.
He traces the 'human intelligence explosion' to the formation of societies and collective cooperation, highlighting the role of cooperative breeding and alloparenting in the development of human intelligence, as discussed by evolutionary biologist Sarah Blaffer Hrdy in his book.
Agüera y Arcas argues that human and artificial intelligence may not be distinct, with human individuals' limited intelligence compensated by collective human intelligence. He views the emergence of societies as a major evolutionary transition, enabling remarkable achievements through cooperation.
