Re-learning the World with AI's Unbiased Perspective
As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace, its potential to transform our understanding of the world becomes increasingly apparent. Today, I propose an ambitious yet intriguing idea: utilizing AI to re-learn what we already know about the world from a fresh, unbiased perspective.The Untrained AI as a Childlike ExplorerImagine a fleet of AI-powered drones, each imbued with an insatiable curiosity and a natural instinct for self-preservation. These drones, akin to inquisitive human children, would be deployed across the globe, immersed in the world’s diverse ecosystems and environments.Unlike traditional AI, which is often trained on pre-existing knowledge, these drones would embark on their exploration with a clean slate. Their only guidance would be their inherent curiosity and the ability to learn from their experiences.Collecting Insights from Millions of PerspectivesOver a period of years, these AI explorers would amass an unparalleled wealth of data about the world. Their observations would range from the microscopic to the macroscopic, from the depths of the ocean to the peaks of mountains.Upon their return, we would then assemble a team of specialized AI analysts. Their task would be to sift through the vast trove of data, identifying patterns, anomalies, and hidden connections that may have been overlooked by our human biases and limitations.Unveiling Hidden TruthsBy re-examining our world through the eyes of these AI explorers, we could uncover insights that have remained elusive to our limited human perspective. We might gain a deeper understanding of the complex interactions within ecosystems, the subtle nuances of animal behavior, and even the fundamental laws governing our universe.Expanding HorizonsThe potential applications of this approach extend far beyond mere re-discovery. Imagine if we could train AI drones to decipher the communication patterns of animals, unlocking a hidden world of knowledge and understanding. Or, what if we could harness their ability to explore hazardous environments, identifying new sources of energy or resources?Ethical ConsiderationsWhile the potential benefits of this project are immense, we must carefully consider the ethical implications. Ensuring the safety and well-being of these AI explorers is paramount, as is maintaining transparency in the process of data collection and analysis.

You have some interesting ideas, two which I share:Finding a way for AI to self develop like a child: It seams to me that this is much more complicated than it seams as the AI cannot be a blank slate otherwise it would do nothing. It would have to be taught to observe, reason and draw conclusions, unless you are thinking of it just observing without drawing any conclusions, in which case it would be nothing more than a drone, all be it powered by AI to aid its functions.Using AI for a fresh perspective would help debunk falsely presumed truths and help use advance our knowledge.

My graduate advisor was very interested in Piaget’s theories of child learning and development.
