• Abstract: With state-of-the-art models achieving high performance on standard benchmarks, contemporary research paradigms continue to emphasize general intelligence as an enduring objective. However, this pursuit overlooks the fundamental disparities between the high-level data perception abilities of artificial and natural intelligence systems. This study questions the Turing Test as a criterion of generally intelligent thought and contends that it is misinterpreted as an attempt to anthropomorphize computer systems. Instead, it emphasizes tacit learning as a cornerstone of general-purpose intelligence, despite its lack of overt interpretability. This abstract form of intelligence necessitates contextual cognitive attributes that are crucial for human-level perception: generalizable experience, moral responsibility, and implicit prioritization. The absence of these features yields undeniable perceptual disparities and constrains the cognitive capacity of artificial systems to effectively contextualize their environments. Additionally, this study establishes that, despite extensive exploration of potential architecture for future systems, little consideration has been given to how such models will continuously absorb and adapt to contextual data. While conventional models may continue to improve in benchmark performance, disregarding these contextual considerations will lead to stagnation in human-like comprehension. Until general intelligence can be abstracted from task-specific domains and systems can learn implicitly from their environments, research standards should instead prioritize the disciplines in which AI thrives.

  We argue that shortcomings stem from one overarching failure: AI systems lack wisdom. While AI research has focused on task-level strategies, metacognition is underdeveloped in AI systems. We propose that integrating metacognitive capabilities into AI systems is crucial for enhancing their robustness, explainability, cooperation, and safety.

  A traditional approach to assessing emerging intelligence in the theory of intelligent systems is based on the similarity, "imitation" of human-like actions and behaviors. We argue that under some natural assumptions, developing intelligent systems will be able to form their own intents and objectives.

• Assessment of cognitive characteristics in intelligent systems and predictive ability [0.0]
  The scale considers the properties of intelligent systems within the environmental context, which develops over time. The complexity, the 'weight' of the cognitive task and the ability to critically assess it beforehand determine the actual set of cognitive tools. The degree of 'correctness' and 'adequacy' is determined by the combination of a suitable solution with the temporal characteristics of the event, phenomenon, object or subject under study.
