Minecraft diamond challenge leaves AI creators stumped
It's a weird thing to somehow think that an AI with only 4 days of training data should somehow outperform even a human child, which has a decade or more of imitation learning experience. A human doesn't come to minecraft "knowing nothing", like the machine learning programs in this challenge. They already know basically everything there is to know in order to perform task-oriented goal planning and only need to focus on task discovery.<p>If anyone had pass the bar this challenge set, they'd have basically solved the biggest hurdle in general AI, and would probably have received a call from John Carmack.
