Intelligence Geocentrism and an AI-Centric World: Earth as the intelligence center of the Universe
The Intelligence Geocentrism or IntelliGeoCentrism or I-Geocentrism implies that humans with emerging real AI entities are the most intelligent species that ever existed in the Universe since the Big Bang.
Geocentrism refers to a cosmological and planetary theory, in which the Earth occupies the central position of the world system, where cosmic objects, the Sun, Moon, stars, and planets, all orbit Earth.
I-Geocentrism refers to the AI theory of the universe, in which the Earth is the intelligence center of the world.
There is all evidence for I-Geocentrism:
The Earth is the center intelligence of the Universe
There is no intelligence in the world but on the Earth, animal, human or machine intelligence
There is no Alien Intelligence but Machine Intelligence or Artificial Intelligence
AI as an Onto-Techno-Scientific Intelligence or Reality-Centric AI
Today’s AI as ML, DL or ANNs is all about mathematical techniques and statistical algorithms or probability theory and computational manipulation.
It is a mystification or bad science to anthropomorphize it as that which “enables computers and machines to mimic the perception, learning, problem-solving, and decision-making capabilities of the human mind”.
Rather, it must be intellectualized by its onto-semantic reification with machine ontology, semantics and science, grounding its data models and algorithms to the world or reality, its entities and interactions and causal relationships.
Again, it should not be a reification fallacy (concretism, hypostatization, or the fallacy of misplaced concreteness), a pathetic anthropomorphic fallacy, human characteristics, especially intelligence, thoughts or feelings are attributed to some abstractions, mathematical models or statistical algorithms treated as if it were a concrete reality or physical entity.
Or, to become real and true, genuine and actual, it must be driven by some world model of its environment, tasks and jobs or application domains, from object/face/speech/text recognition, communication, content generation, recommendations, predictions and decisions to NLG/NLU.
Without its ontological data-environment semantic model, self-driving cars are unable to "continuously identify objects in the environment around the car, predict how they will change or move, and guide the car around the objects as well as toward the driver's destination".
So, Real and True AI is a Reality-centric AI, the world-driven machine intelligence and learning.
As Real AI is emerging as a cardinal feature of the world, the category of intelligence (I) is becoming one of the highest genera or kinds of entities, interrelating the topmost world's variables:
The World as a whole (W) as all reality (R), the whole Universe, all Existence, Everything that exists, the universal class of the sets of all realities, the totality of entities and interactions
Entity (E), Thing (T), Object (O), or Being (B) the universal class of the sets of all entities or things or objects or beings
Substance, Matter, Material, Mind, the universal class of the set of all substances
State, Quality or Quantity (Q), Property or Condition, the universal class of the sets of all states, qualities and quantities, properties or conditions
Change (C) or Event or Process (P), the universal class of the sets of all changes, events and processes
Relationship (R), Interaction (I) or Causation (C), the universal class of the sets of all interactions and causal interrelationships
Data (D), Information (I), Knowledge (K), the universal class of the sets of all representations:
Ontological Intelligence or Intellect (OI), the universal class of the sets of intelligent beings (as humans, intelligent machines or artificial intelligence (AI)).
It is mapping/modelling/simulating/manipulating/interacting with Reality/Input, as World Representations (Stimuli, Signs, Symbols or DATA (D)), to generate Intelligent Output, Predictions and Explanations, Meaning and Information, Action and Activity, as General-Purpose, Intelligent Technology.
OI [HI; AI]: W (E, S, Q, P, C) > D (W) = World Data, Entity Data, Substance Data, State Data, Change Data, Interaction Data or Relationship Data (Laws and Rules, Regularities and Patterns, Structures and Functions, as Datasets and Relational Database, Statistical Algorithms as Regression Algorithms and Neural Networks, AI models or ML Inferences, Generative AI or LLMs, etc.)
Or, reality is representing as a universal undirected hypergraph learning and inference (W, W x W), with virtually an unlimited order, the number o vertices, and size, the number of edges, where hyperedges or hyperlinks interrelate, interconnect, associate, correlate or interact an arbitrary number of nodes.
R = <W, W x W>
In such global causal networks of entity dots, vertices, nodes, points, or elements interconnected by lines, links, or hyperedges, machine ontology quantifies the encoded information of each piece of reality, be it QM, ANNs, biological, social or musical domains.
As an example, [researchers using tools from information theory, statistics and physics analyzed 337 musical compositions by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach. By representing his scores as simple networks of dots, called nodes, connected by lines, called edges, scientists quantified the information each piece of music conveyed].
The Fundamentality of Onto-Scientific Intelligence
The OI is a Reality-driven or World-grounded AI or Real and True AI, which simulates and models the reality itself to effectively navigate, adjust, adapt or interact with the world, its domains and environments.
Its World Model Engine as Ontological Categorization, Knowing and Learning, Inference and Interaction Framework is reified or instantiated by
human intelligence and practice
real life and culture
economics and politics
science and engineering
mathematics and statistics
the arts and humanities
physical technology and digital technology
AI, machine intelligence and learning,
intelligent entities and robotic agents,
statistical learning algorithms,
specialist/narrow AI,
large language model-based generative artificial intelligence technologies,
generalist AI, AGI,
hyperintelligence and superintelligence.

The Real AI embraces the OECD's conception of AI: "An AI system is a machine-based system that, for explicit or implicit objectives, infers, from the input it receives, how to generate outputs such as predictions, content, recommendations, or decisions that can influence physical or virtual environments. Different AI systems vary in their levels of autonomy and adaptiveness after deployment".
Avoiding the extremes of Psychism and Scientism, Anthropocentrism and AI-centrism
Intellicentrism is the theory and worldview that the Earth is the center intelligence of all possible intelligences of the world or reality or the universe.
It transgresses anthropocentrism, psychism, physicalism, materialism, scientism, technocentrism, and AI-centrism.
For all its conscious history, humanity has been unaware where it has been living. If it is
Geocentrism, Earth is at the center of the universe
Heliocentrism, the Sun is at the center of the universe,
Anthropocentrism or humanocentrism, human beings are the central or most significant entities in the world, a basic belief of many Western religions and philosophies; AAI “enables computers and machines to mimic the perception, learning, problem-solving, and decision-making capabilities of the human mind”
Psychism, the belief in a universal soul, the attributing of souls to inanimate objects and phenomena
Physicalism, all that exists is ultimately physical
Materialism, matter is the fundamental substance in nature, and all things, including mental states and consciousness, are results of material interactions of material things
Scientism, belief in the power of scientific knowledge and techniques, science is the best way to discover truth about the world and reality
Technocentrism, excessive belief in technology and its ability to control and protect the environment and that humans have control over nature, technology as a central driving force for the development and progress of society
AI-centrism, a world of ‘robo deus’ (or ‘Robots or AI as God’), simulating human intelligence in machines, as artificial general intelligence or artificial superhuman intelligence, to replace human beings.
All is transcending by I-Geocentrism, as the idea of intelligence supremacy or man-machine hyperintelligence exceptionalism, superintelligence, natural or machine or cybernetic, the intelligent essence of the world.
IntelliGeoCentrism and Superintelligence
Machine [super]intelligence technology is under development by collective human intelligence and knowledge.
Presently, an intelligent world with intelligent life, being in its rudimentary forms, is known to exist only on the Earth.
An Emerging AI Technology of Real Superintelligence [don't confuse with the OpenAI's Superintelligence Alignment] is in line with the theory of intellicentrism.

The Quest for Trans-AI
The grand quest for Real/General/Autonomous Machine Intelligence had started some thousands years ago:
Religion (gods as the first superhuman AI entities) > Theology (Logos, the Word of God, or principle of divine reason and creative order) >
Philosophy (Superintellect as the locus of the full array of Platonic Forms) >
Metaphysics > Ontology (Superintelligence as a non-physical and non-mental entity) >
