This Artificial Intelligence System Gains Intuition Like a Human Baby

Scientists taught a deep learning system to learn intuitive physics the same way human babies do. This mechanism could be key in bridging the gap between humans and AI, as well as inform future psychology studies about cognition. By definition, "human intuition" seems to denote a barrier between us and artificial intelligence. It's why we have gut feelings and reflexive -- sometimes impulsive -- reactions inexplicable by logic, and therefore not simply transferrable to computers. I mean, we can hardly parse our own reasoning for instinctive behavior, so how could we develop algorithms to encode it?
