In order to train a causal model of the world that allows for the prediction of the consequences of actions, a system must interact with the world and learn from its mistakes. The idea of consciousness and its role in artificial intelligence parallels questions from centuries ago about the workings of the eye.

Self-Supervised Learning
Summary

Active learning, which involves a system interacting with the world and improving over time, is key to self-supervised learning. This method is more efficient in improving learning and can lead to significant progress.
