Problems of Artificial Personality (Artificial Intelligence) Control

Abstract

Today, a number of researchers representing both technical knowledge and the humanities believe that it is necessary to endow Artificial Intelligence with subjective “human” qualities, which include the ability to self-aware, as well as to make a free choice. In this regard, the problem of the AI autonomy becomes extremely relevant, and further – AI creator’s rights and capabilities (or ineligibility) to hold control over AI. Within this framework the Artificial Personality project has been developing over the past 20 years. Given its active scientific and social activities with the involvement of the remarkable interdisciplinary community, the project is far from complete. The presented article summarizes the executed research for Artificial Personality conceptualization and demonstrates that today the fundamental possibility of the creation of Artificial Personality has not yet been convincingly proven. Also, conceptually, there has not been formulated the single generally accepted approach to promising methods and technology for the implementation and the embodiment of the Artificial Personality. So, at the current stage, the study of the Artificial Personality is rather abstract theoretical research. As a result of the study, the authors come to the conclusion that today it is reasonable to use the results of the Natural Personality and Natural Intelligence studies and transfer the methods that have shown their relative effectiveness in various existing manifestations of real social life to the field of creating the concept of Artificial Personality. The proposed approach for the conceptualization of Artificial Personality will help to create a theoretical and methodological foundation for theoretical research and further implementation of Artificial Personality projects.
