This conclusion was reached by Meta vice president and chief AI scientist Yann LeCun, according to <a href=\\\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en\/article\/qjkwqb\/meta-ai-chief-publishes-paper-on-creating-autonomous-artificial-intelligence\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\" rel=\\\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\\\">Motherboard<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Compared with humans and animals, modern AI systems lack common sense. This concept is essential for developing &#8216;autonomous&#8217; AI algorithms capable of learning on the fly by observing the real world, rather than through prolonged training aimed at a single specific task.<\/p>\n<p>LeCun published a <a href=\\\"https:\/\/openreview.net\/pdf?id=BZ5a1r-kVsf\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\" rel=\\\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\\\">\u0438\u0441\u0441\u043b\u0435\u0434\u043e\u0432\u0430\u043d\u0438\u0435<\/a> in which he proposed a way to address the problem. He argues that algorithms require more effective training, because AI \\&#8221;isn\u2019t very good\\&#8221; at planning and forecasting changes in the real world. By contrast, humans and animals can acquire a vast amount of knowledge through observation and mundane physical interactions.<\/p>\n<p>Teenagers can learn to drive after tens of hours of practice without getting into an accident. For the same task, AI systems require enormous amounts of data.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\\\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\\\">\n<p>\u201cA self-driving car would need to drive off a cliff several times before it understands that it\\&#8217;s a bad idea, and thousands more attempts to learn not to fall off,\u201d LeCun noted during the <a href=\\\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/VRzvpV9DZ8Y\\\">\u0434\u043e\u043a\u043b\u0430\u0434\u0430<\/a> at the University of California, Berkeley.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>According to him, the difference lies in the presence of &#8216;common sense&#8217; among humans and animals.<\/p>\n<p>In the paper, the scientist describes this concept as a set of models that help a living being draw a distinction between what is probable, feasible, and impossible. Such a capability enables people to explore their surroundings, fill in missing information, and offer new solutions to unknown problems.<\/p>\n<p>LeCun said that many modern training processes, such as reinforcement learning, are not up to the mark when it comes to matching human reliability in real-world tasks.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\\\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\\\">\n<p>\u201cThis is a practical problem, because people genuinely need machines with common sense. We need driverless cars, home robots, and intelligent virtual assistants,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The specialist proposed an architecture designed to minimise the actions an AI must perform to learn and accomplish the designated task.<\/p>\n<p>LeCun outlined a model for building an &#8216;autonomous&#8217; intelligence, consisting of five separate but configurable modules. One of the most challenging components of the architecture would be a simulator-like module that assesses the state of the world and forecasts imagined actions and other sequences. This would allow knowledge about the environment to be applied to a range of tasks.<\/p>\n<p>In July, Google fired an engineer after he stated <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/google-fired-engineer-who-claimed-ai-had-achieved-consciousness\">\u043e \u00ab\u0437\u0430\u0440\u043e\u0436\u0434\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0438 \u0440\u0430\u0437\u0443\u043c\u0430\u00bb \u0443 \u0418\u0418-\u0430\u043b\u0433\u043e\u0440\u0438\u0442\u043c\u0430<\/a> LaMDA.<\/p>\n<p>In January, Elon Musk <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/elon-musk-vows-to-prevent-a-machine-uprising\">\u043f\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0435\u0449\u0430\u043b \u043f\u0440\u0435\u0434\u043e\u0442\u0432\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0438\u0442\u044c \u0431\u0443\u043d\u0442 \u043c\u0430\u0448\u0438\u043d<\/a> \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0442\u0438\u0432 \u043b\u044e\u0434\u0435\u0439.<\/p>\n<p>In June 2021, DeepMind scientists <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/deepmind-reinforcement-learning-suffices-to-create-general-ai\">\u0437\u0430\u044f\u0432\u0438\u043b\u0438, \u0447\u0442\u043e \u0434\u043b\u044f \u0434\u043e\u0441\u0442\u0438\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0438\u044f \u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u0433\u043e \u0438\u0441\u043a\u0443\u0441\u0441\u0442\u0432\u0435\u043d\u043d\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0438\u043d\u0442\u0435\u043b\u043b\u0435\u043a\u0442\u0430<\/a> \u0434\u043e\u0441\u0442\u0430\u0442\u043e\u0447\u043d\u043e \u043e\u0431\u0443\u0447\u0435\u043d\u0438\u044f \u0441 \u043f\u043e\u0434\u043a\u0440\u0435\u043f\u043b\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435\u043c.<\/p>\n<p>Follow ForkLog&#8217;s news on Telegram: <a href=\\\"https:\/\/t.me\/forklogAI\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\" rel=\\\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\\\">ForkLog AI<\/a> \u2014 all the news from the world of AI!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Autonomous&#8221; artificial intelligence capable of exploring and perceiving the surrounding world as humans do requires more effective training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":68153,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"select":"1","news_style_id":"1","cryptorium_level":"","_short_excerpt_text":"","creation_source":"","_metatest_mainpost_news_update":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[438,1293,1138],"class_list":["post-68152","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-analysis","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-meta","tag-opinions"],"aioseo_notices":[],"amp_enabled":true,"views":"33","promo_type":"1","layout_type":"1","short_excerpt":"","is_update":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68152","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=68152"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68152\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":68154,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68152\/revisions\/68154"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/68153"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=68152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=68152"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=68152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
