Optimization, the Philosophical Background of Artificial Intelligence
Abstract. We discuss new challenges in the modern Science, created by Artificial Intelligence (AI). Indeed, AI requires a system of new sciences, mainly based on computational models. Their development has already started by the progress in Computational Mathematics. In this new reality, Optimization plays an important role, helping the other fields with finding tractable models and efficient methods, and significantly increasing their predictive power. We support our conclusions by several examples of efficient optimization schemes related to human activity.
