Grab it Explore the concept of "educability" as a defining human capability in this thought-provoking lecture by Leslie Valiant at ICBS2024. Delve into the search for a computational and behaviorally defined characteristic that explains humanity's unique achievements and distinguishes us from other species. Examine why traditional notions of "intelligence" fall short in this context and discover how the proposed concept of educability synthesizes our abilities to learn from experience, learn from others, and apply chained knowledge to specific situations. Investigate the connection between the Probably Approximately Correct learning model and the capabilities demonstrated by Large Language Models. Consider how a deeper understanding of human capabilities, particularly educability, can inform and shape the future of technology and artificial intelligence development.
