Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Cognitive Psychology (CP) are two sciences of intelligent systems that share many features. If we want, nevertheless, to contrast AI with CP, we must investigate differences between the strategies they follow in exploring intelligence. To do so, I transform the Turing Test into a more adequate intelligence test based on a necessary condition for intelligence, namely that intensions of second-order intentional predicates are observable in a system (sect. 2). I then contrast CP and AI by their criteria for progress in research on this necessary condition for intelligence (sect. 3).
