Argumentation theory underwent a significant development in the Fifties: itsrevival is usually connected to Perelman's criticism of formal logic and thedevelopment of informal logic. Interestingly enough, it was during this periodthat Artificial Intelligence (AI) was developed, and the following thesis (fromnow on referred to as the AI-thesis) defended: human reasoning can be emulatedby machines. The paper investigates the relation between these two trends: isit possible to interpret the opposition between formal and informal logic as amove against the AI-thesis, and in particular against a premise of an argumentthat supports it? A distinction between a narrow and a broad notion of algorithmis discussed and evaluated with respect to the possibility of rephrasing the AIthesisas a foundational problem for argumentation theory.
