Abstract

Artificial intelligence methods may be used to model human intelligence or to build intelligent (expert) computer systems. AI has already reached the stage of human simulation where it can model such "ineffable" phenomena as intuition, insight and inspiration. This paper reviews the empirical evidence for these capabilities.
