The article challenges the traditionally held belief that cognition is the ultimate form of intelligence, suggesting it may just be a phase in our understanding. As AI progresses, it raises questions about the nature of thought and intelligence beyond human limitations. The author argues that our historical view tied intelligence to brain function may be more of an artifact of biology rather than a reflection of true intelligence. This piece sets the stage for a philosophical inquiry into redefining cognition and intelligence in the context of emerging technologies.
"For much of modern history, intelligence was thought to reside in the physical brain. This entrenched belief limited our understanding of cognition and intelligence itself."
"What if this understanding reflects the structure of our own biology more than it reveals something fundamental about intelligence itself?"
