Our field isn't quite "artificial intelligence" -- it's "cognitive automation": the encoding and operationalization of human-generated abstractions / behaviors / skills. The "intelligence" label is a category error

"If the cartoon is drawn with sufficient realism and covers sufficiently many scenes, what's the difference?", you may ask. Adaptability to the unknown. A lifeform will autonomously adapt to a changing future. An automaton will perform the scenes you planned for.

Intelligence is adaption to unknown unknowns across an unknown range of tasks and domains. Automation is, at best, robustly handling known unknowns over known tasks (which is already incredibly difficult and resource-intensive in the real world -- whether engineering or data)

The resource-intensiveness, naturally, comes from the lack of adaptability: you need to plan for every possible unknown, whether explicitly or via a dense sampling of possible situations (assuming a fixed distribution)

Is reinforcement learning going into a good direction? Adaptation via both experience and environmental stimula

And it's even harder than that. The problem is not that we have a problem. The problem is that we have problems. So the solution is not finding a solution to a problem. The solution is finding a metasolution that is valid across time and tribes. Bam! the challenge of the universe

Per this definition of intelligence, would that not mean perhaps only the earliest men experienced actual intelligence?

Does the passing down of genetic information down from parents to offspring not imply that offspring are not entirely exposed to experiences without a frame of reference?

If so, it means than, rather than adaptation to unknowns, intelligence is the ability, i. e. the computational complexity necessary to learn this classes.

Very fascinating discussion. Are these classes of unknown really unknown or can they be reformulated as a unsupervised information representation learning problem so part of an underlying structure. Like the laws of physics.
