Synopsis

What if everything we assume about artificial intelligence rests on a misconception of human intelligence? This book challenges those assumptions, arguing that human cognition cannot be replicated through data and processing power, and proposes a "Blue Orange Mind" that emerges from collaboration between humans and machines.

Reconceiving AI: The World as an Apple or a Blue Orange draws its central insight from Paul Cézanne, a painter who spent thirty years learning to see an apple and discovered what neuroscience would take another century to confirm: seeing is not receiving but creating. The book pursues this discovery into the nature of intelligence: What does it mean to perceive? To understand language? To reason morally? To imagine what does not exist? Each question leads through artists and poets, philosophers and neuroscientists, novelists and filmmakers, toward a richer understanding of human consciousness and its relationship to artificial minds. The current AI paradigm, which builds machines as mirrors of narrow human rationality, fails to grasp this. Human intelligence thrives on paradox, contradiction, and uncertainty, emerging from embodied experience, symbolic thinking, and the irreducible diversity of minds. Beyond this "cracked mirror," the author proposes the Blue Orange Mind: a form of intelligence that neither humans nor machines can achieve alone, arising from the interplay between what we are and what we might create.

Written for AI researchers, developers, students, and anyone curious about the future of intelligence, this book offers an invitation to see intelligence anew, to understand why consciousness cannot be copied, and to imagine what becomes possible when we stop building machines in our image and start building them as genuine partners in the construction of meaning.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

M. R. Hasan is an AI researcher and professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where he directs the Human-First AI Lab (HAL 2.0), named in pointed contrast to Kubrick's rogue creation. This book began at a Cézanne retrospective in Chicago in 2022, with a question: What did a painter who spent thirty years on apples understand about perception that the most sophisticated AI still misses? That question became this book. Born in Bangladesh, Hasan writes from the productive contradictions of immigrant consciousness: between languages, between cultures, between the home he left and the home he is still making.
