Intelligence & Semantics Editorial Review
"On Intelligence" by Jeff Hawkins proposes a new understanding of the brain that can lead to the creation of truly intelligent machines. The author explains that the neocortex works by repeating the same functional subunits all over the cortex, creating a model of what is happening and anticipating what will happen next. Hawkins hypothesizes a standard neural circuit, a predictor-comparator circuit, that repeats through all 10-11 layers from input to output. The book offers an interesting hypothesis and outlines experiments to test it. Overall, the book offers a fascinating read for those interested in AI and theories of cognition.
