It is shown that the implementation of breakthrough progress in artificial intelligence cannot be accomplished without a radical modernization of the methodological framework for research in this area. This upgrade can be performed only with the use of conceptual and methodological apparatus of dialectics. Its consistent application to objects, in either case connected with ideas about the intellect, results in the formulation of the dialectic symmetry principle. The first practical steps for the implementation of the proposed concept in practice are associated with the creation of a new education paradigm, which operates, including ideas that “education” being understood as a public institution, is not reducible to individual learning. Education in modern conditions can and should be viewed primarily as a tool to influence public consciousness, or more precisely, its subsystems.
