But the variables it discovered were unexpected.. But how did Albert Einstein know about these concepts in the first place? Before understanding physics you need to identify relevant variables.
“We thought this answer was close enough,” said Hod Lipson, director of the Creative Machines Lab in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, where the work was primarily done. “Especially since all the AI had access to was raw video footage, without any knowledge of physics or geometry. But we wanted to know what the variables actually were, not just their number.”

So yes, there are indeed alternative ways to describe the universe and it is quite possible that our choices aren’t perfect.
