The autonomous intelligence challenge

Abstract

The considerable development of modern technology during last decades has been accom-panied by improvements in associated adapted machines performance. The improvement process has always been guided by the same rules of researching higher efficiency and more secure effects each time. This leads to a progressive transfer of human action to more adapted and more specific effecting objects, from simple tools for elementary actions to more sophisticated machines for quite complex tasks. Each step of this transfer of human operator action has been realized by delegating to the effecting machine efficiency, accuracy, power and safetybasically all of technical nature and linked to power flux, with the human operator still keeping the mastery of the action to fulfil his own goals.
