System-2 Reasoning via Generality and Adaptation
Sejin Kim, Sundong Kim·October 10, 2024
Summary
The paper explores AI's limitations in deep reasoning, generality, and adaptation, crucial for AGI. It proposes four research directions: learning human intentions, combining symbolic and neural models, meta-learning for unfamiliar environments, and reinforcement learning for multi-step reasoning. These aim to enhance AI's ability to generalize and adapt, moving towards AGI's reasoning capabilities. The paper discusses methods for AI to learn human intentions and improve reasoning and adaptability, focusing on techniques like topic modeling, sequential pattern mining, and hidden Markov models. It also highlights the importance of reinforcement learning in enhancing AI's adaptability and multi-step reasoning, crucial for System-2 tasks.
