    Our objective will be to postulate in favor of the existence of a superintelligence capable of breaking the vicious circle of empirical intelligence, according to Bergsonian thought. With the help of intuition, it would be able to surpass itself through a linguistic leap. If we accept that it is the action of a superior intelligence that breaks its own circle, we will demonstrate that an essential change in human attitudes toward language, knowledge, and life will occur by overcoming this problem, which is the purely anthropological theme of Creative Evolution. Finally, we will argue that overcoming the vicious circle of practical intelligence, according to Bergson, aims to replace and reconfigure the speculative habit that characterizes it, adopting a radical use of language that connects with the totality of vital experience through the use of metaphors and images.
