Decision-making is a critical skill for animals and au- tonomous robots alike. Whether you are a rabbit or a driverless car, you constantly need to make appropriate decisions. This work stresses the importance of taking into account habit formation in decision-making and goal-directed behaviors such as intrinsic motivation, especially as it pertains to sensorimotor learning.
