Abstract: This paper critically examines the concept of an Intuitive Physics Engine (IPE) in humans, a theoretical framework suggesting that humans possess an inherent capability to understand and predict physical interactions in their environment. The paper contrasts this notion with alternative theories and computational models, and examines its relation with two machine learning mechanisms: Learning from Dynamics and Learning from Intuition. Through a case study involving magic tricks, the paper also explores the potential of commonsense reasoning in artificial intelligence (AI) systems.
