I disagree.
If you feed a bunch of images into a CNN, it doesn't just learn flower, cat, etc. It learns more fundamental things such as edges, textures, patterns.

Moreover, you can use simple reward signals, such as "progress forward", to learn complex locomotion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx_bgoTF7bs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx_bgoTF7bs
If you still think these represent "find[ing] patterns in what they're told to", I would argue you only think that because the scale of these experiments is so small.

Inputting a bunch of pictures is telling it to find patterns in those pictures. And though some of those patterns are fundamental things, at some point it will need to be told what patterns are useful.

- pessimizer 9y agoThat they are limited to seeing things that they are told to see is not.
