TodaysAIsystems are quickly evolving to become humans new best friend.
In 1906, philosopher G. K. Chestertonwrotethat common sense is a wild thing, savage, and beyond rules.
Robots, of course, run on algorithms that are just that: rules.
So no, robots cant use common sense yet.
It’s free, every week, in your inbox.
So why does it matter if we teach AI common sense?
Common sense includes not only social abilities and reasoning but also a naive sense of physics.
It can make autonomous cars react better to unexpected roadway incidences.
It can even help the militarydraw life-or-death informationfrom intelligence.
So why havent scientists been able to crack the common sense code thus far?
But weve not moved much closer to making it a reality since.
Its knowledge that yououghtto have,saysMichael Witbrock, AI researcher at the University of Auckland.
This means it can actually give a sense of social awareness and could interact with humans in real-world prefs.
To demonstrate common sense, an AI model must have built-in representations of how humans plan.
So what is AGENT?
AGENT is a large-scale dataset of 3D animations inspired by experiments that study cognitive development in kids.
