Comparative Principles of The Structure of The Psyche of Homo Sapiens And Artificial General Intelligence - PART 1
Kruglov Alexander G, Kruglov Andrey A
Properly understanding the structure and dynamics of mental processes is a critical step in determining
the significant features of artificial general intelligence operating on the principles of biological
systems. The psyche, as a function of the brain, is responsible for creating, preserving, integrating and
determining the priority of updating the arsenal of regulatory algorithms that ensure the balancing of
physiological and mental homeostasis. Two interdependent information circuits develop simultaneously
in the psyche: 1) physiological - control and balancing of homeostasis parameters of the internal
environment; 2) psychological - a) creating/maintaining a consistent picture of the external environment
and the relationship with it; b) implementation of behavior algorithms to balance homeostasis. The
supra-threshold dissociation of homeostasis parameters, both physiological and mental, updates
a compensatory need, the encoded information equivalent of which is the goal image, becomes the
motive for goal-directed behavior. The psyche uses consciousness for selective interaction with the
external environment. Consciousness is the interface of the psyche and the external environment with
the selection and control functions of the dynamics of the two-way flow of information in the process of
fulfilling a need. In creating motivating frustration structures, the Homo sapiens (HS) creative psyche
has modified consciousness into an independent subsystem of the psyche capable of arbitrary, volitional
control. The HS psyche is now able to arbitrarily determine the relevance and parameters of goals
beyond vital needs, keep their dynamics in focus, and through introspection construct subjectivity in
phylo/ontogenesis. Expanding the range of needs beyond the vital arsenal has formed motivational
constructs of ideal content, creating the “uncertainty barrier problem.” The general principles of
the psyche's action to realize ideal needs under conditions of uncertainty are formulated. The need to
overcome "uncertainty barriers", with the a priori impossibility of achieving the ultimate ideal goal of
a symbol creates a sequence of homomorphic cycles of behavior that have no prospects of completion.
