Super General Intelligence: Truth at the Confluence of Object and Perception

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: In this article, Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) refers to a global, sentient network of artificial agents capable of perceiving, understanding, and expanding upon consolidated knowledge, thereby producing in silico scientific and technological advancements that surpass human collective capacity in both speed and integration. As ASI is currently undergoing full consolidation, apocalyptic and/or redemptive discourses surrounding it prove to be more naive than useful. This article aims to provide a brief reflection on the epistemological impacts of ASI on the construction of scientific knowledge. To this end, we primarily draw upon the classics of Western philosophy, emphasizing the understanding of truth, perception, and the object, and how they are metamorphosed by ASI. In doing so, we propose a “critique of artificial reason,” which questions the human delusion of considering itself the exclusive possessor of knowledge—a peculiar mixture of naivety and arrogance.
