Moravec's Paradox
An AI theory proposed by Hans Moravec stating that for artificial intelligence, high-level reasoning tasks are easier than low-level perception and motor control, meaning a system may defeat humans at chess while finding it extremely difficult to fold laundry.

The Moravec paradox was proposed by AI pioneer Hans Moravec and others in the 1980s, and its core point is: high-level intelligence such as logical reasoning and mathematical operations is relatively easy for computers, while low-level abilities such as perception, movement, and grasping instead require enormous computational resources to simulate.
Gemini 4 Argon's 87% pure reasoning score on ERQA suggests that large models may have found a new path around the Moravec paradox: no longer relying on hand-coded physical rules, but instead learning physical common sense similar to human intuition through massive data.
Moravec's paradox points out that for AI, high-level reasoning is instead easier than low-level perception and motor control.
Moravec's paradox, proposed by roboticist Hans Moravec in the 1980s, states that high-level cognitive tasks that are difficult for humans are relatively easy for AI, while low-level sensorimotor tasks that humans perform effortlessly are extremely difficult for AI.
