      The central question in AI is -- can we make a machine that's capable of doing things we didn't program it to do? It's reminiscent of alchemical transmutation -- something out of nothing. A system that's fundamentally more than what went into it.

      The magic of intelligence is that such a machine is in fact possible. Humans are proof of it -- evolution didn't program us to play chess or search for exoplanets or shitpost on Twitter.

      Quick note for those who bring up cellular automata or other systems with unpredictable behavior: CA don't "do things" (implies a task). "Being more" than the parts implies being more useful and valuable (subjectively). Intelligence is emergent but emergence is not intelligence.

      Unpredictability / complexity alone (e.g. cellular automata) isn't useful or valuable. Intelligent systems do things (tasks) they weren't programmed to do. They produce solutions that weren't contained in their programming instructions.

          Would if be safe to assume our programming arose iteratively? The blueprint scattered across the evolution of organism complexity?

          creating interesting patterns is not intelligence.

          Isn't a deep neural network itself a good example of a complex system that its collective behavior is more than and smarter than the behavior of individual neurons?

          Like u mentioned, value/use is subjective. I have once used “cellular automaton” approach to simulate fluid dynamics, and the pattern it generated (or predictions if you will) often surprised and exceeeded what you expect from the basic rules you put in.

          or is intelligence having some ability to abstract similarities between different contexts And trying out methods which work in one situation, in another scenario?

          Consciousness will be the key. The bad thing is, we barely understand it and I think we put way too less effort in research about it. 🧐
