Avoiding frostbite: It helps to learn from others

Michael Henry Tessler et al. Behav Brain Sci. 2017 Jan.

Abstract

Machines that learn and think like people must be able to learn from others. Social learning speeds up the learning process and - in combination with language - is a gateway to abstract and unobservable information. Social learning also facilitates the accumulation of knowledge across generations, helping people and artificial intelligences learn things that no individual could learn in a lifetime.
