This paper introduces Artificial Jagged Intelligence (AJI), a theory that explains uneven capabilities in large learning systems as a result of how optimization energy is allocated during training. The authors propose that training is a finite-budget process where update energy is distributed across different capability-related directions in the model's parameters. This uneven distribution, influenced by objective structure and data geometry, leads to models that are strong in some areas but weak in others, rather than a single measure of intelligence. AI
