Abstract

We argue that generally accepted methodologies of Artificial Intelligence research are limited in the proportion of human level intelligence they can be expected to emulate. We argue that the currently accepted decomposition and static representations used in such research are wrong. We argure for a shift to a process based model, with a decompositioin based on task achieving behaviors as the organizational principle. In particular we advocate building robotic insects.
