Intelligence consciousness intuition

The exponential development of artificial intelligence forces us to reevaluate what constitutes human intelligence, consciousness, and knowledge. It is a complex question that I explore with the help of established research, highlighting several thinkers with insightful perspectives on these topics.

Through detailed explanations of fundamental concepts, I aim to make the content accessible to a broader audience, appealing to both academics and laypeople. The book is a call to every individual and society to be aware of and unleash the creative intelligence that exists in every person, waiting to be released.

The first part addresses artificial and human intelligence, creativity and intuition, cognitive science and cognitive development, and the different characteristics of the two brain hemispheres.

The second part discusses views on consciousness within psychology, philosophy, and physics, various theories of consciousness, phenomenology, existentialism, mental training, and meditation.

The third part covers different forms of knowledge, theories of truth, ways to justify knowledge, ontology, metaphysics, knowledge development, self-awareness, education, scientific paradigm shifts, and the concepts of time and causality.

The fourth part presents two qualitative studies on scientific intuition, one of which is conducted by me.
