GENERAL INTELLIGENCE MODELING UNIT

The central promise of Deep Objekt is articulating the nature of general intelligence–both as a matter of a renegotiation of the boundaries between complexity, computation, cognition, conceptualization, and the understanding of the contexts under which the term general in the phrase general intelligence is or can be defined is by all means a significant task ahead. It is to this end that Deep Objekt is committed to looking at general intelligence in all its past and future richness and potentials that require a re-understanding and a recontextualization of how general intelligence evolves, is individuated and transforms in the deep Darwinian time and in the deep time of intelligence’s history as that which that might belong to the processes of the past or those of the future. We do not yet know what has come truly in the past or will come in the future. The figure of intelligence is deep, broadly understood from the perspective of informational complexity, history, commitment, and collective understanding. There is a deep correlation between the concept of general intelligence and computation.

Historically, computation is understood as only one sort of thing under specific mathematical principles and, nevertheless, rich behaviors have been hammer-strong, meaning constrained by under-explored aspects of computation as a process. Then, in this deep correlation, any fundamental change in the conception of general intelligence correlates to a change in the concepts or the frontiers of what can be a computation. General intelligence is a form of computation, it belongs to a concept of computation that allows for different modes of computation, indexing different sorts of behaviors, at different hierarchies pushing forward the computation.

GENERAL INTELLIGENCE MODELING UNIT

The general intelligence modeling unit's focus is broad and foundational, exploring the concept of intelligence itself, not just artificial intelligence. Considering general intelligence as a phenomenon that plays a critical role across various domains, encompassing economic, social, and political dimensions and deep evolutionary processes, might extend beyond the strictly biological. A multidisciplinary approach to understanding intelligence as a fundamental aspect of life and evolution suggests that intelligence is not merely a trait of organisms or machines but a pervasive element in the universe, manifesting in various forms and scales and influencing a wide range of phenomena. Exploring artificial intelligence’s impact on all domains of life today can be examined in terms of the nature of intelligence, specifically what counts as general intelligence as that which is both implicating and implicated in the most fundamental aspects of economy, society, and politics, and perhaps even the phenomenon of life in the deepest senses of evolution in its myriad facets. For this reason, the enigma of general intelligence in its relation to itself and the world forms a tightly interwoven lattice of many concerns, parameters, and constraints distributed across many scales and models of phenomena pertaining to everyday human life and perhaps even the planetary and post-planetary scenarios, as of yet unfolded or not. It is in this sense that general intelligence, properly recognized, is not a shallow but a deep object of evolution encompassing processes that precede the biological horizon of life and those that might supersede it in the form of novel forms of life among which artificial intelligence can be, today or tomorrow, a genuine manifestation.
