In our enthusiasm to promote certain technological
advancements let us not belittle human activities
Childhood's
treasury of learnings
Innocent
curiosity, intense observations, playful imitations, delicious day dreams,
incredible imaginations, far-fetched fantasies are part of childhood's
treasury of learnings which get any normal child's mind instantly involved,
intensely internalized but everything without any obligation and hangover.
Learning
meanders through these are we grow
As one grows the acquired knowledge, accumulated thoughts, acquired or adopted biases, impulses, instincts, intuitions, various levels of understanding, experience gained through churning of life in all its actions, interactions, reactions and so on , most of these calibrated and lead to conditioning through the ideological, religious, political and socio-cultural milieu based influences and impacts. There are components of Collaborative intelligence, Creative intelligence, Existential intelligence, Intrapersonal intelligence, Naturalistic intelligence, Emotional intelligence, Interpersonal intelligence, Musical intelligence, Body-kinaesthetic intelligence, Linguistic intelligence, Logical-mathematical intelligence, Scientific intelligence, Spiritual intelligence, Spatial intelligence, Predictive intelligence, Visualization intelligence, Conceptualizing intelligence, Philosophical enquiring intelligence to seek meanings and grasp the unknown and vaguely perceived aspects of life etc.
In
addition we have as part of all the above or existing besides all the above critical
thinking, analysis and creativity all of which manifest in the process of
learning, understanding and expressions.
So, human
intelligence as a whole or even parts of it cannot be over simplified, over
generalized and definitely not at all be homogenized. Hence, cannot be
replaced through any short cut methods or means or tweaked through any of the
much hyped technologies or software though they may help in speeding up lot
of repetitive, routine, mundane tasks and manual work and spatially shrink
expanse of area of monitoring etc.
