Perspectives on Intelligence: Community Survey
Published:
The term ‘intelligence’ is often used in various fields including Artificial Intelligence, Cognitive Science, Natural Language Processing, and Machine Learning. But research papers rarely specify what is meant by that term. As a result, we as a research community often talk past each other, even about our basic premises and goals. Authors may even change how they write their papers, based on a wrong impression of what most other researchers believe.
We are a team of CogSci/NLP researchers from the IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark. We combed through the literature to collect the key definitional criteria for ‘intelligence’, and we designed this survey to find out the following:
- to what degree do the researchers agree about what ‘intelligence’ even means?
- what role does this notion play in their research agenda?
- what is their perception of the current systems based on large language models (e.g. ChatGPT)?
We would much appreciate to hear your perspective! The survey takes 5-10 minutes and is available until December 16 at: https://www.survey-xact.dk/collect
Please enter the code 4S7V-SN4M-S536 to open the survey.
If you have any questions regarding the survey, please contact Bertram at [berh]@itu.dk.
Your response is fully anonymous and will be used for research purposes only. Anonymous response data, survey form, as well as our analysis will be publicly available for independent analysis and any follow-up studies.
