Science of Intelligence – Human Intelligence to Computational Intelligence

Prof. Risto Ilmoniemi, Head of Department of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering, Aalto University School of Science, Finland participates in Risk Roundup to discuss Science of Intelligence – Human Intelligence to Computational Intelligence. Science of Intelligence – Human Intelligence to Computational Intelligence It is said that what we cannot create we do not understand. While the very nature of the human mind and the science of intelligence is difficult to understand, there is an intense effort going on across nations to build a conscious computer mind out of computer chips. Do we know enough about the science of intelligence to build computational intelligence? Perhaps not! As a result, there are growing concerns and questions about building a computer mind from electronic pieces when there is so little clarity about the human mind, science of intelligence, and the very nature of human consciousness. From the beginning of human times, the power of imagination has helped us, humans, explore the unknowns, evolve, and change the world around us. We have fundamentally transformed the geospace. The same power of imagination will perhaps, continue to help us explore, the unknowns of cyberspace and space, and change the reality around humanity. Imagination has always been an indicator of human intelligence. While imagination is a creative power that is necessary for inventions in cyberspace, geospace, and space (CGS), the same power of imagination is driving neuroscientists today to understanding human intelligence, imagination, and where ideas originate from– the human brain and mind better. The power of imagination can transform the reality around us because new ideas enable us to innovate. We, the humans, and the human mind carry all the power we need inside ourselves already. We have the power to imagine better, and imagination makes it possible to experience a whole world inside the human mind, which we can then go and create outside in cyberspace, geospace, and space. Irrespective of human intelligence or computational intelligence, knowing what determines intelligence is perhaps the biggest question humanity faces today. It is therefore important that we evaluate the fundamentals of the science of intelligence. Since there are no limits to intelligence imagination, there are no limits to progress and advancement in humans. It is the imagination that will help us create worlds, that never were, in cyberspace, geospace, and space (CGS). But without intelligent imagination, we go nowhere. It is important that we understand the science of intelligence to understand human intelligence to computational intelligence.
