Building Intuitive Physics Engine Enables AI to "Feel Magical"
Keywords: Intuitive physics, Violation of expectation
Abstract: There are various magic performances making us surprised because of violation
of our basic physics knowledge, and we tend to repeat the process in our mind
to figure out how it was done. Human reactions to violation of physics law is
inspiring to cognitive AI. This essay will take magic shows as example, focus on
the violation of expectation (VoE) task in intuitive physics. We try to convince that
causal generative model building is a proper mechanism for AI to solve VoE task,
finally discussing the limits for the intuitive physics engine in AI.
