Comparing Machines and Children: Using Developmental Psychology Experiments to Assess the Strengths and Weaknesses of LaMDA Responses

no code implementations18 May 2023 Eliza Kosoy, Emily Rose Reagan, Leslie Lai, Alison Gopnik, Danielle Krettek Cobb

We propose that using classical experiments from child development is a particularly effective way to probe the computational abilities of AI models, in general, and LLMs in particular.

Imitation versus Innovation: What children can do that large language and language-and-vision models cannot (yet)?

no code implementations8 May 2023 Eunice Yiu, Eliza Kosoy, Alison Gopnik

Much discussion about large language models and language-and-vision models has focused on whether these models are intelligent agents.

Exploring Exploration: Comparing Children with RL Agents in Unified Environments

1 code implementation6 May 2020 Eliza Kosoy, Jasmine Collins, David M. Chan, Sandy Huang, Deepak Pathak, Pulkit Agrawal, John Canny, Alison Gopnik, Jessica B. Hamrick

Research in developmental psychology consistently shows that children explore the world thoroughly and efficiently and that this exploration allows them to learn.

Exploiting Attention to Reveal Shortcomings in Memory Models

no code implementations WS 2018 Kaylee Burns, Aida Nematzadeh, Erin Grant, Alison Gopnik, Tom Griffiths

The decision making processes of deep networks are difficult to understand and while their accuracy often improves with increased architectural complexity, so too does their opacity.
