metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article analyzes the anthropological paradigms of the mainstream approaches to AI development.
  The article concludes that the principle of computability (quantifiability) first introduced
  in the early stages of AI development (namely by A. Turing) is still paramount. The article
  showcases the way this principle is rooted in what Heidegger described as treating humans
  and the state of being itself as a consumable and ultimately destructible commodity. One tries
  to quantify the state of being in order to consume it. As a consequence, humanity approaches
  the creation of a “thinking machine” as an exercise in self-imitation. The article highlights
  the deficiencies of creating AI via copying human patterns. The article also suggests a viable
  alternative — a mediatory method, developed by culturally-historical psychology. The latter
  perceives the thought process not as a brain activity but as a objective act, mediated through
  sings and speech. This way of thinking leads to a new strategy of AI development — as a smart
  helping hand for humans. This, however, requires an overhaul in medical, educational, governmental
  and many other social practices. The author concludes that any AI development
  is bound to start with a social engineering process, renovating the principles, governing day
  to day lives. This is why the development of AI is not a purely technological task. Is affects a
  deeper level of human existence, unfit to be interpreted in numerical terms.
