A Thousand Brains by Jeff Hawkins

A theorist proficient in both literature, neuroscience, and computer engineering sheds light on a new perspective regarding intelligence, the understanding of the brain, and the trajectory of AI. Despite considerable advancements in neuroscience, the central inquiry remains largely unresolved: how do basic brain cells generate intelligence? Jeff Hawkins and his research team have revealed that the brain employs map-like formations to construct numerous models of our understanding of the world—countless representations of all that we comprehend. This breakthrough enables Hawkins to address critical inquiries about our perception of reality, the genesis of our self-awareness, and the inception of advanced cognitive processes.
