Compression is intelligence - Learn How To Learn
I am not sure what intelligence is, but it seems like intelligence is generally characterized as problem solving competency - which could include decreasing costs (such as time or iterations) of solving a problem, or increasing the potential "height" / "depth" / complexity of the problems solved.
I am not sure what intelligence is, but it seems like intelligence is generally characterized as problem solving competency – which could include decreasing costs (such as time or iterations) of solving a problem, or increasing the potential “height” / “depth” / complexity of the problems solved. Compression can be thought of as one of the most powerful techniques to increase this problem solving ability. A compressed piece of information (such as a file or an idea) contains more important patterns (fundamentals) per unit of information storage. Some processing units, such as an individual…
