Intelligent behavior does not necessarily require conscious thought from "summary" of Artificial Intelligence by Melanie Mitchell
The idea that intelligent behavior does not always depend on conscious thought may seem counterintuitive. After all, we often associate intelligence with our ability to think, reason, and make decisions consciously. However, this assumption is not always valid in the realm of artificial intelligence. In fact, many AI systems exhibit intelligent behavior without possessing consciousness. These systems can perform complex tasks, solve problems, and even learn from experience, all without being aware of their actions. This phenomenon challenges our traditional understanding of intelligence, which is deeply rooted in human cognition and consciousness. One example of this is the field of deep learning, where artificial neural networks are ...
