From the Linguistic Turn to the Cognitive Turn and Back Again

The developments in the field of artificial intelligence are pointing out to complex nature of intelligence. The aim of this chapter is to show that to achieve a deeper understanding of intelligence, which is also the main task of Walter Pitts and Warren McCulloch, we need artificial intelligence, but we need psychology, neuroscience, and we also need philosophy. The complex nature of intelligence points to the need for turning back to evolution of understanding of intelligence that we find in definitions with which we operate and to history of the term itself. Moreover, it seems that the history of attempts to define intelligence indicate that its essence is scattered throughout many fields. However, the turn to the history of the meanings of the term itself can unravel the essence of intelligence. For this, we need philosophy. Perhaps we can say that we can grasp the essence of intelligence from mingling between the linguistic and the cognitive. For this, we need AI, psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy.
