How can it possibly understand physics when the training data does not teach it or contain the laws of physics?

- ninetyninenine 3y agoVideo data contains physics. Objects in motion obey the laws of physics. Sora understand physics the same way you understand it.
- beardedwizard 3y agoI understand physics because science has performed a series of measurable experiments over 100s of years resulting in concrete mathematical formulas and theories that explain the laws of physics so that they can be reproduced by machines. Sora has zero of this knowledge. This is very much allegory of the cave[1]. If Sora sees a series of images that contain impossible physics, for example MC Escher paintings, what will happen? 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegory_of_the_cave https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegory_of_the_cave
- ninetyninenine 3y agoSora understands basic motion without mathematics in the same way people typically understand physics. A person with no knowledge about mathematical formulas will still be able to recognize impossible MC Escher paintings. With enough data, Sora will be able to generate both impossible and possible physics and know the difference. We can already see in the video that it has a rough understanding of it.
