Abstract :
Thinking and intelligence can never be separated from the world. Modern philosophy rests on a new interpretation of the nature and fulfillment of human reason, and disputes about the nature of human reason are the ultimate battles of philosophy. The symbol based AI approach is not practical for real world problems. The world is artificial intelligence´s best model. Intelligence can only be determined by the dynamics of interaction with the world. Being is a temporal event inseparable from the understanding of being embodied in Dasein´s forms of life. Based on the modern philosophy´s spirit, the behavior-based systems interact with real world directly. The constructed AI system based on philosophy has to express all its goals and desires as physical action to affect its environment, and extract all its knowledge from physical sensors. In this study, a fully autonomous mobile robot is built, after a thorough research to the philosophy´s origin of the modern AI. In the mobile robot developed, each module itself generates behavior, and improvement in the competence of the system proceeds by adding new modules to the system. The performance of the robot proves that the whole system is stable.
