Abstract

This position paper hypothesizes that humans are becoming smarter, not only when using ICT and AI tools, but on their own, particularly due to the progress of AI knowledge. As is common when demonstrating that one computing mechanism is stronger than another, we chose a well-known task – the unexpected hanging paradox –that humans were previously unable to resolve efficiently, but can now do so thanks to new knowledge. We show that the cause of prior problems was with ambiguous definition, as it was in the case of the liar paradox.
