Consider a simple example: I give you a set of questions about a movie, and you watch the movie and try to answer the questions. During the movie you write notes. The shortest possible notes that enable you to answer the questions are just the answers to the questions.
Meanwhile, what if I ask you more questions later, and you try to use your notes to answer them? If your notes were the shortest possible, you can't. Do answer you'd have needed more extensive notes about what's important in the movie, not just the answers to the original Qs
Such notes would have been very compressed, obviously: they'd have much less info than the original movie. But they'd have a lot more info than the shortest possible form of the notes that could answer the original questions. These notes would be *generalizable notes*.
So generalization involves *some* compression (a lot of it actually) but also a lot of work that's opposite to compression (writing down seemingly useless info that seems interesting / salient).
Ok I love the example because I have always been a horrible note taker. But here, ( and I am afraid I might be confusing things) I feel like my ability to write the best notes about the questions would come from a powerful "compressed?" representation of the movie. Or no?
I guess if I can only use the notes it makes perfect sense.
