A new study published Feb. 21 in the journal Cognition found that babies outperform AI when it comes to “commonsense psychology” and sussing out motivations and goals behind other people’s actions.
—people are growing ever more concerned that AI is evil, sentient, and ready to take over the world.
That’s good news for those that should help assuage concerns we’re hurtling toward an AI takeover of the world—if AI can’t best a bunch of stinking toddlers at some key benchmarks of intelligence, they won’t be a match for suddenly replacing humans. We’ve known for a while now that babies are pretty good at observing and understanding people’s actions. They’re capable of fairly high-level intuitive thinking, rationally attributing goals to and predicting the actions of others. Meanwhile, AI cando the same, like when you see an ad for a product on Instagram that you were just searching for on Google.
When the shapes did something unexpected like moved differently or didn’t retrieve an object like it usually did, the infants would react by staring longer at the shapes on a screen. The study’s authors note that this is an indicator that the infants recognized the motivations behind simple actions of the animated shapes—and were surprised when it didn’t perform the expected action. However, the AI didn’t exhibit any evidence that it understood the motivations behind the actions.
