New theory proposes mathematical foundation for open-ended AI

A new arXiv paper proposes a mathematical framework for achieving open-ended intelligence, moving beyond current AI limitations in scale and representation. The research suggests that intelligence is bounded by its semantic domain and proposes semantic self-extension as a design principle. This involves transforming unresolved structures into new meaning spaces, generating novel distinctions, questions, representations, and purposes, rather than merely resolving ambiguity within existing ones. AI

IMPACT Proposes a new theoretical direction for developing AI systems capable of unbounded learning and adaptation.

    Co-Recursive Semantic Self-Extension: A Mathematical Foundation for Open-Ended Intelligence

    arXiv:2610.31097v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Artificial intelligence has advanced through scale, data, and computation, yet remains bounded by its representational framework. We ask what makes intelligence open-ended. Every inferential system selects meaningful distinction…
