System Zero — A Proposal for Artificial General Intelligence

Danushka Bollegala¹ Norikazu Tokusue² ¹University of Liverpool, United Kingdom. ²Cognite, AS, Tokyo, Japan. Abstract The proposal of two-systems to model human cognition has received a wide popularity in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) community. The co-existence of an intuition-driven fast-acting System One and a reasoning-based slower System Two exclusively decouples the different cognitive tasks humans carryout on a daily basis. However, several important questions quickly surface when one attempts to implement a working prototype based on the two-system model such as (a) the distribution of external sensory inputs between the two systems, (b) feedback of the rewards for the actions for learning parameters related to each system and (c) providing justifications to decisions made by the System One using System Two, to name a few....
