Doesn't this argument apply to the 5-year-old also? It has no intelligence that wasn't placed there by evolution? Let's rather say that dealing with novelty is a central challenge for AI that is beyond current capabilities
No, it doesn't -- what makes the 5 year old intelligent is its ability to acquire new skills, solve new tasks. It's irrelevant who/what created the 5 year old, it's her generality that makes her intelligent. A task-specific program is not intelligent because it has no generality.
Starting with few priors and adapt very well to narrow context is not trivial. Is that intelligence? It depends how it would survive in some other environments, like some life forms can strive in wide varieties of context. I don’t think it’s useful to draw a precise line.
Intelligence is an information processing mechanism for learning the regularities of the environment that uses the knowledge to attain goals. This applies to narrow or general scenarios depending on magnitude of priors, dynamics and capacities of the agent
So in what context does that 5 year old, without personal prior experience, predictably fail? What is essential to few-shot learning
As you know, I think 'intelligence' is a property of behavior rather than of agents. Successful behavior in the face of novelty is certainly intelligent, but so is, for example, rapid and correct speech recognition.
That may be so, @tdietterich , yet „generality“ or „abstract reasoning“ as proposed by @fchollet still seems to be a useful criterion to define a future research program, is it not? Metaphors rarely convey the full argument so why not let them be?
