Intuitive Physics Engine of Humans Exists, But How it Works Remained Unclear
Keywords: intuitive physics, neuroscience, cognitive reasoning
Abstract: This essay examines the compelling evidence supporting the existence of an intuitive physics engine in humans, a conceptual framework allowing an innate understanding of fundamental physical laws. It is evidenced by early developmental manifestations in infants and is observable in everyday human behaviors and advanced neuroimaging studies. Despite substantial empirical support for its existence, the underlying mechanisms of how this intuitive system operates remain a subject of extensive research and debate. The exploration is multifaceted, delving into the developmental, cognitive, and evolutionary aspects of intuitive physics and its interaction with acquired knowledge. The essay aims to shed light on the intricacies of this inherent ability and its implications for understanding human cognition and advancing artificial intelligence. Discusssions about benefits of intuitive physics engine is also included in this essay.
