Artificial Adaptive Intelligence: The Missing Stage Between Narrow and General Intelligence

Boris Kriuk

The path from narrow AI to general AI goes through an intermediate stage of Artificial Adaptive Intelligence that eliminates human-specified hyperparameters.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

The path from ANI to AGI passes through AAI, and that naming this stage changes what we measure, what we build, and what we call a success.

C2weakest assumption

That meta-learning, neural architecture search, AutoML, continual learning, evolutionary computation, and physics-informed modeling have quietly converged on the common principle of steady removal of the human from the loop of parameter specification.

C3one line summary

Proposes Artificial Adaptive Intelligence as the regime between narrow and general AI, defined by elimination of human-specified hyperparameters, and introduces an adaptivity index plus parametric minimality principle grounded in minimum description length.
