Visual Abstraction and Reasoning through Language
While Artificial Intelligence (AI) models have achieved human or even superhuman performance in narrowly defined applications, they still struggle to show signs of broader and more flexible intelligence. The Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC), introduced by François Chollet, aims to assess how close AI systems are to human-like cognitive abilities. Most current approaches rely on carefully handcrafted domain-specific languages (DSLs), which are used to brute-force solutions to the tasks present in ARC. In this work, we propose a general framework for solving ARC based on natural language descriptions of the tasks. While not yet beating state-of-the-art DSL models on ARC, we demonstrate the immense potential of our approach hinted at by the ability to solve previously unsolved tasks.
