Why Causal Reasoning Is the Missing Piece for Truly Intelligent AI

Judea Pearl, the 2011 Turing Award laureate, argues that modern AI is stuck in curve‑fitting and that true intelligence requires machines to understand cause and effect, a perspective he expands on through a series of insightful interview questions and answers.
