AB - The aim of this article is to analyze John MacCarthy’s concept of “artificial intelligence” and compare it with Kant’s concept of “human intelligence.” Thereby I will clarify their commonalities and differences. In order to do this, I will, at first, attempt to establish a conceptional relationship between “artificial intelligence,” “intelligence,” and “human intelligence” (Kant). Secondly, I will argue that MacCarthy’s artificial intelligence and Kant’s human intelligence have resemblance when they are considered as a problem-solving faculty, i.e. an ability to make judgements about problems given under certain conditions. Thirdly, I will show that these two concepts have essential differences because Kant and MacCarthy adopt different epistemological frameworks. Kant’s distinction between transcendental idealism and transcendental realism is laid out, and this shows that the difference between two concepts depends on whether one possesses self-consciousness or not. However, the basic idea of transcendental idealism, that our judgement can be valid only when it is related with our self-consciousness, suggests a paradox that it is still possible for “artificial intelligence” to acquire self-consciousness. Consequently, Kant’s transcendental idealism can provide theoretical justification for any research on post-human artificial intelligence.
