Weve heard that one before, but this times a little different.
The big idea here is all about giving artificial intelligence agents more agency.
Basically, theres something other than just algorithms and architecture that makes our brains tick.
According to the researchers, this dark matter is social interactions.

Current AI systems are nowhere near the cognition abilities of a human.
This means creating a subconscious layer thats distinct from, yet connected to, a dynamic consciousness layer.
This makes understanding how time affects both an agent and its environment a necessary component of the proposed models.
The researchers claim the AI would need to be capable of social interaction on a level playing field.
Ultimately, theres no true road map toward human-level AI.
But, arguably, this is just another attempt to squeeze a miracle out of deep learning technology.
