Abstract

Theoretical discussions about the possibilities and limitations of Artificial Intelligence could have a major impact on the future development of computer technologies. However, such discussions are often based on vague concepts and assumptions. This paper proposes a conceptual framework for the appropriate presentation of knowledge and problems concerned with human cognitive abilities as well as the capabilities of computational machines. Within this context we hold it necessary to observe the distinction between authentic and functional cognitive abilities. Although computation is not a plausible way of gaining authentic intelligence, computational systems do offer virtually unlimited possibilities to replicate and surpass human cognitive abilities on the functional level.
