Can AI have intuition?

Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Part of the symposium "Intuition in Organizations: New Research Directions" organized by Marta Sinclair. We often talk about AI using an anthropomorphized language, describing AI as technology that can “understand” something, “make decisions”, “hallucinate”, “guess”, “believe” in something, or “make sense” of an idea. Using such evocatively human language makes it easy to forget that such language is merely a metaphor rather than an accurate description of AI’s capability. Anthropomorphizing AI makes it easy for us to endow AI in our mind’s eye with the gift of intuition. We unpack the idea of AI’s potential ability to intuit by assessing AI’s technical capabilities against the six necessary features that define intuition, as agreed upon by the scholarly community (Bas & Dörfler, 2023).
