The fact that one-shot learning is still hard does not falsify what I said. Computers are now better than humans at many tasks that were once thought to be the domain of general intelligence. How they were trained is not particularly significant.
- cscurmudgeon 9y agoIt depends on what you mean by a task. Machines are not universally good at object detection because they fail in cases where there is too little data. We can't magically wish for non existent data (yet humans would do quite well on those data-scare tasks).
- darawk 9y agoYa, i'm happy to accept that humans are still better at generalizing from scant data. But that is something that's being actively worked on, and progress is being made. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-shot_learning https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-shot_learning
- cscurmudgeon 9y agoAgreed. I would love to see quick progress in that too (that is one of my projects).
