Continuing your example, people take some field of view of electromagnetic radiation within a certain frequency range that hits our eyes, and we call that vision. If instead of this radiation in the visible spectrum, we were presented with the reflected EM radiation from our surroundings in some other frequency range, we couldn't do anything with it. Does that mean we're not intelligent either?
- mjburgess 5y agoIt's not that we can do it for abitary compressive encodings, it's that we can do it for some. A machine trained only on non-compressive encodings, cannot take a compressed representation and produce facts about it. A human /can/. (NB. via the fact that intelligence isn't just 'generalized interpolaton' but a contenful process of reasoning, skill, curiosity etc. that comes to bare on generating descriptions in a novel mode).
