Given a defined “goal”, an AI can automatically work towards achieving it. Most of our existing intuition about “machinery” and “automation” comes from a kind of “clockwork” view of engineering—in which we specifically build systems component by component to achieve objectives we want. And that’s where we humans come in.

But, first and foremost, the story of the Second Law is the story of a great intellectual achievement of the mid-19th century. Over the years that followed there were all sorts of engineering innovations that increased the efficiency of steam engines. Coarse-grained variables. Microscopic representation of mechanical work.

Here’s how the “loss” evolves (over the course of 100 generations) for a collection of paths: And what we see is that there’s only one “winner” here that achieves zero loss; on all the other paths, evolution “gets stuck”. But what happens with other paths? As we mentioned above, though, with more “dimensions” one’s less likely to get stuck.

Ed was never officially a “test pilot”, but he told me stories about figuring out how to take his plane higher than anyone else—and achieving weightlessness by flying his plane in a perfect free-fall trajectory by maintaining an eraser floating in midair in front of him.
