That's wrong. It knows how to process and signal low carbohydrate levels in the blood, and it knows how to react to a perceived threat (the Moro reflex).
It knows how to follow solid objects with its eyes (when its visual system adapts) - it knows that certain visual stimuli correspond to physical systems.
Could it be that your concept of "know" is defined as common sense "produces output in English/German/etc"?
- Geee 11mo agoNo, I totally agree that there's all kinds of innate knowledge, but it's very similar for humans and animals. I don't think this knowledge is intelligence. My point was that a baby is already an AGI, and it shouldn't require a lifetime of learning to become one. Also, if intelligence is just problem solving (like an IQ test) then it should be independent of knowledge.
