The Frame Problem refers to a problem that first emerged in artificial intelligence research as the specific challenge of characterizing, using formal logic, those aspects of a state that are not changed by an action. It soon turned out, however, that this original version of the frame problem was just one dimension of a more general and multi-faceted difficulty of explaining how intelligent systems may think and act in ways that are fluidly and flexibly sensitive to context-dependent relevance. This more general problem of relevance is now commonly identified as the frame problem.
