The Day AI Solves My Puzzles Is The Day I Worry (Prof. Cristopher Moore)

Professor Cristopher Moore of the Santa Fe Institute discusses the surprising effectiveness of AI, arguing it stems from the rich, non-random structure of the real world. He explores the limits of current models, the nature of intelligence as creative problem-solving and abstraction, the importance of grounding and shared reality, and the profound implications of computational irreducibility and the need for algorithmic transparency in high-stakes applications.
