Knowing which variables to try controlling for requires already having a causal model in the first place though - otherwise controlling can either uncover/obscure causal factors depending on whether it's a confounder/mediator/blocker
teenagers induce causal models of alternative worlds every time they master a video game. some day AI will be able to do the same, for the real world. cc @yudeapearl @eliasbareinboim

It's one thing to teach AI how to reason about counterfactuals given a causal model (e.g. do-calculus
@yudapearl) - seems like another (much harder) problem to generate these causal models from scratch like the human brain can seemingly do super easily from a young age - End of conversation
