The Dynamical Hypothesis

Explains the dynamical approach to artificial intelligence.

This paper offers a brief explanation of the dynamical hypothesis in artificial intelligence and compares it to the computational hypothesis. The paper points out that the two hypotheses do not necessarily conflict with each other and that the certain aspects of the dynamical hypothesis actually embrace the computational hypothesis.
“Dynamics forms the general framework for growing amounts of work in psychophysics, perception, motor control, developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, situated robotics and autonomous agents research, artificial intelligence, and social psychology. It is central to a number of general approaches, such as ecological psychology, synergetics, and morphodynamics (Smolensky 1998).”
