It seems that much of what we call intelligence could be de=cribed as detecting causal structure

When I was in Munich, a patent lawyer challenged me to come u= with a definition of creativity
from a machine learning perspective. He h=s to judge the originality of inventions, and something that a domain expe=t
can come up with "naturally" does not count as an invent=on, even if it has never been done before.
learning sys=ems tend to move along gradients, and the "natural solutiont>=9D of the domain
expert can be seen as an extrapolation of the solution sp=ce along the known gradients, until an optimum is found.
Creativity seems =o involve crossing discontinuities in the problem space, i.e. do more than=follow the gradients. It is
not magic, of course; you can use evolutionary=methods/Monte Carlo etc., but you find that many domain experts are
capabl= without being creative.
Can we measure the=ability of different animals for creativity?

I agree that humans share an important =imilarity with cells, i.e. they have
mechanisms that suppress individual c=mpetition when it conflicts too much with group selection. Without such
me=hanisms, group selection fails, because within each group, defectors have = local advantage.
The simplest mechanism to enfor=e cooperation is reputation, but it works only

Exactly! Sensors like that are often =ne of these solution that get you 80% of the

Most animals don't have a self model,=probably because they don't have
complex enough brains or long enough =raining phases (childhoods) to do meta-regulation.
