Cognitive and machine-oriented approaches to intelligence in artificial systems
Antonio Lieto · 2021
This chapter presents the different possible routes to building an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system. On one hand, it presents the design assumptions underlying cognitive approaches to AI and, on the other, it presents the tenets of machine-oriented approaches aimed at obtaining AI systems able to exhibit intelligent behaviour without making any assumption about the biological or cognitive plausibility of the implemented mechanisms. It additionally introduces the reader to the main instances regarding the debate on the levels of analysis of computational systems (cognitively inspired or not).
