    Storage (Memory)

    Memory is an important part of all AI-based systems. A limited memory AI-based system is one of the most widely and commonly used types of intelligent systems [83]. In this type, historical observations are used to predict some parameters about the trend of changes in data. In this approach, some data-driven and also statistical analyses are used to extract knowledge from data.

    From A Survey of Artificial Intelligence Challenges: Analyzing the Definitions, Relationships, and Evolutions (Saghiri2022)

  27. From semantic web techniques to linguistic analysis and natural language processing may be related to semantic computations in AI-based systems [87,88,89]. On the other hand, communication among intelligent agents leads to flowing information in a population of agents resulting in increasing knowledge and intelligence in that population... We know that defining or determining a shared ontology among intelligent entities in an AI-based system is possible because of maturing some parts of knowledge in ontology manipulations and defining some tools in semantic web techniques

    Morality and Ethical

    Ethics are considered as the set of moral principles that guide a person’s behavior. From a perspective of morality issue, it is preserving the privacy of data within learning processes [93]. In this perspective, the engineers and social interactions of humans are the subjects of morality. From another perspective, implementing the concepts related to morality in a cognitive engine can be seen as a goal of AI designers. This is because we expect to see morality in an agent designated based on AGI and also HLI.

    Rationality

    The concept of rational agency has long been considered as a critical role in defining intelligent agents. Rationality computation plays a key role in distributed machine learning, multi-agent systems, game theory, and also AGI... Unfortunately, a lack of required information prevents the creation of an agent with perfect rationality
