How do humans manage to adapt to completely new situations and why do machines so often struggle with this? This central question is explored by researchers from cognitive science and artificial intelligence (AI) in a joint article published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. Among the authors are Professor Dr. Barbara Hammer and Professor Dr. Benjamin Paaßen from Bielefeld University.How do humans manage to adapt to completely new situations and why do machines so often struggle with this?
