Why is physical common sense hard for AI?
Show answer & explanation
Answer: Much of it is left unsaid
Much of it is left unsaid ✓ — Correct! People rarely spell out support, balance, friction, or occlusion, yet those hidden assumptions are essential for acting in the real world.
Physics changes with wording — Wrong. Physics stays the same even when language changes. The challenge is that text often leaves physical rules implicit.
Humans explain every detail — Wrong. Humans usually skip obvious real-world details because other humans already share that common sense. AI may not.
