What best explains humans' greater sample-efficiency over current AI: structured causal theories & inductive biases, an empowerment-driven intrinsic reward, or the representational simplicity of the world model itself? T12 complementary
Rich theory-structured, object-oriented causal models plus human inductive biases guiding exploration/planning.
Other principles — empowerment as the bridging intrinsic reward, OR the intrinsic representational simplicity of the model vs. derived value quantities.
