@ngaylinn@tech.lgbt @thrilway@kolektiva.social Decades ago for my undergraduate dissertation, I made a demonstration that an agent system using inherited neural network starting weights combined with online learning during the agent lifetime was superior to either approach separately.
I captures the idea you mention, that humans and animals are born primed to learn about the kind of world we live in. I believe that's going to be the root of any human-like or embodied AI, because it just works so well.

@LyallMorrison@cloudisland.nz @thrilway@kolektiva.social A lovely example! And very much the kind of research my lab groups like to explore.
