Just like a seasoned chef who combines ingredients from past recipes to create a new culinary masterpiece, humans (even little ones!) have a remarkable ability to extract knowledge from previous experiences and apply it in novel situations. While current explanations of human and artificial intelligence fall short, researchers are now exploring the relationship between the consistent patterns within individual episodes of human experience and the cognitive processes involved. By analyzing these patterns, they hope to uncover the secrets behind our ability to transfer knowledge effectively. Imagine if we could better understand how our brains stitch together these episodes, like puzzle pieces forming a beautiful picture! The findings from this research could revolutionize our understanding of intelligence gathering and provide valuable insights for developing more sophisticated AI systems. To dive deeper into this mesmerizing topic, check out the full article.
How do humans, including toddlers, take knowledge from past experiences and apply this knowledge in new ways? Current approaches to human and artificial intelligence (AI) fail to offer satisfactory explanations. We suggest the explanation will be found in the coherence statistics of the individual time-extended episodes of human experience and the cognitive processes those statistics engage.
