Summary

This document describes "BlocksNBeadsWorld," a simulated environment designed for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) research that models naive physics using blocks and beads. The text contrasts this approach with traditional "Blocks World" models and compares its philosophy to Wolfram's cellular automata, emphasizing qualitative simulation of phenomena like fluids and heat over precise physical accuracy. It argues that this environment provides the necessary complexity for humanlike cognitive development experiments while acknowledging its simplifications compared to real-world physics and biology.

"Similarly, the beads in BlocksNBeadsWorld are intended to qualitatively demonstrate the real-world phenomena most useful for the development of humanlike embodied intelligence, without trying to precisely emulate the real-world versions of these phenomena."
