How Machines Learn to Ignore the Noise (Kevin Ellis + Zenna Tavares)
Scaling and imitation learning provide a substrate, but Ellis and Tavares argue few-shot adaptation needs uncertainty, causality, abstraction, and agency.On ARC, two Llama 8-billion models split induction from transduction, showing that validated Python programs and neural intuition solve different tasks.Wake/sleep turns 10 to 100 human-written programs into an adaptive prior, while Project Mara tests interactive learning on unfamiliar devices.
