How do we understand the world around us? How do we solve problems?
Often the answer to these questions follows a certain pattern, an
algorithm if you wish. This is the case when our analytical left-brain
side is at work. However, there are also elements in our behaviour where
intelligence appears to follow a more elusive path, which cannot easily
be characterised as a specific sequence of steps. Is Intelligence an
Algorithm? offers an insight into intelligence as it functions in
nature, like human or animal intelligence, but also sheds light on
modern developments in the field of artificial intelligence, proposing
further architectural solutions for the creation of a so-called global
Webmind.
