Can AI Ever Be as Curious as Humans?

Curiosity has been hailed as one of the most critical competencies for the modern workplace. Countries with higher curiosity enjoy more economic and political freedom, as well as higher GDPs. It is therefore not surprising that, as future jobs become less predictable, a growing number of organizations will hire individuals based on what they could learn, rather than on what they already know. Of course, people's careers are still largely dependent on their academic achievements, which are (at least partly) a result of their curiosity. Since no skill can be learned without a minimum level of interest, curiosity may be considered one of the critical foundations of talent.
