The notion of “intelligence” in AI—cognitive or otherwise—is often framed in terms of an individual agent optimizing for a reward or goal. One influential paper defined general intelligence as “an agent’s ability to achieve goals in a wide range of environments”; another stated that “intelligence, and its associated abilities, can be understood as subserving the maximisation of reward.” Indeed, this is how current-day AI works—the computer program AlphaGo, for example, is trained to optimize a particular reward function (“win the game”), and GPT-4 is trained to optimize another kind of reward function (“predict the next word in a phrase”). --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Ho già detto in altre occasioni che una efficace caratterizzazione dei sistemi LLM è "macchine sofistiche", perché - perdonatemi la banalizzazione - per i sofisti non è importante comprendere la verità ma solo /dipinger(se)la/, /narrar(se)la/. Analogamente, più osservo il dibattito sulla AGI più mi convinco che si tratti solo e soltanto di meta-sofismo, ovvero sofismo sul sofismo, cioè sofismo al quadrato: non importa comprendere cosa sia l'intelligenza o cosa siano le capacità cognitive, i meta-sofisti l'intelligenza "se la cantano e se la suonano". Di questo stiamo parlando: meta-sofismo on steroids.
