Reinforcement learning could be the link between AI and human-level intelligence What would it take to use reinforcement learning to replicate evolution and reach human-level intelligence? Natural selection Credit:George Desipris In their paper, the DeepMind scientists present the following hypothesis: “Intelligence, and its associated abilities, can be understood as subserving the maximisation of reward by an agent acting in its environment.” Scientific evidence supports this claim. Humans and animals owe their intelligence to a very simple law: natural selection....
