Comparing intelligence on agents with computational theory

In order to compare different kinds of agents 20211217203347 we can try to compare what they have in common. In order to do so, David Marr defined a set of levels to compare them on what is usually called computational theory.

Greatly simplified, this levels are:

  1. Existence proof of what can/should be done. On this levels agents can share a purpose or functionality, such as search for humans (mosquitos do, and so can robots).
  2. Decomposition of what into inputs, outputs and transformations. Agents can share common processes here, input to output transformations. For example, a mosquito senses heat to detect humans but also can robots.
  3. How to implement the process. Agents usually share little to no commonality on this level (mosquitos fly to the position and robots can use wheels).
