People use fast and flat simulation to reason about new games
Katherine M. Collins, Cedegao E. Zhang, Lionel Wong +6
Games have long been a microcosm for studying planning and reasoning in both natural and artificial intelligence (AI), often focusing on expert-level or even super-human play. But…
Evaluating Language Models' Evaluations of Games
Katherine M. Collins, Cedegao E. Zhang, Graham Todd +9
Reasoning is not just about solving problems -- it is also about evaluating which problems are worth solving at all. Evaluations of artificial intelligence (AI) systems primarily f…
Generation and Evaluation in the Human Invention Process through the Lens of Game Design
Katherine M. Collins, Graham Todd, Cedegao E. Zhang +6
The human ability to learn rules and solve problems has been a central concern of cognitive science research since the field's earliest days. But we do not just follow rules and so…
Modeling Open-World Cognition as On-Demand Synthesis of Probabilistic Models
Lionel Wong, Katherine M. Collins, Lance Ying +8
When faced with novel situations, people are able to marshal relevant considerations from a wide range of background knowledge and put these to use in inferences and predictions. W…
Language-Informed Synthesis of Rational Agent Models for Grounded Theory-of-Mind Reasoning On-The-Fly
Lance Ying, Ryan Truong, Katherine M. Collins +6
Drawing real world social inferences usually requires taking into account information from multiple modalities. Language is a particularly powerful source of information in social…
Resource Rational Contractualism Should Guide AI Alignment
Sydney Levine, Matija Franklin, Tan Zhi-Xuan +8
AI systems will soon have to navigate human environments and make decisions that affect people and other AI agents whose goals and values diverge. Contractualist alignment proposes…
On Benchmarking Human-Like Intelligence in Machines
Lance Ying, Katherine M. Collins, Lionel Wong +6
Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have yielded powerful computational models that, by learning from vast amounts of human-generated data, are increasingly posited as…
Understanding Epistemic Language with a Language-augmented Bayesian Theory of Mind
Lance Ying, Tan Zhi-Xuan, Lionel Wong +2
How do people understand and evaluate claims about others' beliefs, even though these beliefs cannot be directly observed? In this paper, we introduce a cognitive model of epistemi…
Building Machines that Learn and Think with People
Katherine M. Collins, Ilia Sucholutsky, Umang Bhatt +10
What do we want from machine intelligence? We envision machines that are not just tools for thought, but partners in thought: reasonable, insightful, knowledgeable, reliable, and t…
Grounding Language about Belief in a Bayesian Theory-of-Mind
Lance Ying, Tan Zhi-Xuan, Lionel Wong +2
Despite the fact that beliefs are mental states that cannot be directly observed, humans talk about each others' beliefs on a regular basis, often using rich compositional language…
