Document worth reading: “The Measure of Intelligence”

To make deliberate progress within the route of additional intelligent and further human-like artificial strategies, we should be following a suitable options signal: we wish to have the power to stipulate and take into account intelligence in a implies that permits comparisons between two strategies, along with comparisons with folks. Over the earlier hundred years, there was an abundance of makes an try to stipulate and measure intelligence, all through every the fields of psychology and AI. We summarize and critically assess these definitions and evaluation approaches, whereas making apparent the two historic conceptions of intelligence which have implicitly guided them. We observe that in apply, the trendy AI neighborhood nonetheless gravitates within the route of benchmarking intelligence by evaluating the power exhibited by AIs and folks at specific duties corresponding to board video video games and video video video games. We argue that solely measuring means at any given exercise falls fast of measuring intelligence, consequently of means is carefully modulated by prior data and experience: limitless priors or limitless teaching data allow experimenters to ‘buy’ arbitrary ranges of skills for a system, in a implies that masks the system’s private generalization vitality. We then articulate a model new formal definition of intelligence based totally on Algorithmic Information Theory, describing intelligence as skill-acquisition effectivity and highlighting the concepts of scope, generalization situation, priors, and experience. Using this definition, we advise a set of pointers for what a standard AI benchmark must seem like. Finally, we present a benchmark intently following these pointers, the Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC), constructed upon an specific set of priors designed to be as shut as doable to innate human priors. We argue that ARC may be utilized to measure a human-like kind of frequent fluid intelligence and that it permits truthful frequent intelligence comparisons between AI strategies and folks.
