The Analysis of the Development of Artificial Intelligence Based on Hegel’s Concept of the Absolute

Abstract

The purposes of this research were: 1) study the development of artificial intelligence, 2) examine Hegel’s concept of the Absolute, and 3) analyze the development of artificial intelligence from the perspective of Hegel’s Absolute. The data was collected from primary and secondary sources and analyzed using descriptive methods based on inductive reasoning.
The results revealed that:
1. From counting with fingers to algebra, computer logic language to symbolic artificial intelligence (Symbolic AI) under the framework of human commands, moving towards machine learning that does not have to wait for commands to decide by itself, to deep learning for advanced and complex processing in the current era that creates ideas in leaps and bounds.
2. Hegel proposed the concept of the absolute mind through dialectics, by proposing (Thesis), arguing (Antithesis), and synthesizing (Synthesis). This concept does not focus on finding immediate results but uses intellectual skills to seek the truth in a complex and deep way in creative intelligence with judgment, reviewing ideas and synthesizing repeatedly in the same process to the absolute.
3. The development of artificial intelligence according to Hegel's view of absolute consciousness AI in the present era is a rejection of the original limitations in order to improve and elevate it to be better than before by new creative ideas that connect and integrate various knowledge, develop beyond the potential of abstract intelligence, manifest into concrete technology, become innovation or absolute things responsibly. It can be said that the two different ideas stand on the same dialectical principle.
