Artificial intelligence applications are widely used in computer games, financial analysis, and real-time systems. In this paper we will consider artificial intelligence as computer systems that can successfully achieve their goals in a “complex environment”. It is known from algorithm theory that any algorithm has a morphism into a finite automaton. On this basis, at a certain level of abstraction, we can hypothesize that a mind is equivalent to a finite state machine. On this basis, at a certain level of abstraction, it is proposed to study the hypothesis that a mind is equivalent to a finite state machine.
