But a game like Pac-Man is intuitively understood by the average human because it’s fundamentally a “human” game - designed by humans, gives humans dopamine and other chemical hits in a way that we might even perceive as “fun”. Imagine a game that requires lots of computation and no human-friendly interface - a machine would obviously “learn” the rules a lot faster. The more evidence we uncover, especially the research around Alpha Go Zero (self play with a specific objective in lieu of millions of years to develop keen general intuition) the more it feels like “human-like” intelligence is not some incredible holy grail of general intelligence but an emergent property of any reasonably directed algorithm. Another random thought, but cro magnon man comes to mind as a human-like intelligence that proved simply not as cunning or vicious as human intellect and was outcompeted and stamped out. Imagine if we were to discover the AI equivalent of cro magnon intelligence - would we be quick to dismiss it as subpar and “not general enough” even though it emerged through the same algorithm (natural selection)?
