Does intelligence have diminishing marginal utility?

Seeking better explanations
I am interested in understanding the world. I believe training models with Deep Learning, and understanding what/how these models learn is going to be the best way to do this. Currently building ML systems, and trying to understand the full stack, from atoms to applications. Looking for roles that align with this vision.
What is on my mind
How can we quantify the notion of 'a better representation' and help models learn these better representations
How do humans solve the credit assignment problem for long horizon tasks / what is taste?
