In this third episode in the series, Author Jeff Hawkins talks to VP Marketing Christy Maver about Part 2 of his new book, A Thousand Brains. Part Two: Machine Intelligence, covers how a new understanding of the brain can point the way to truly intelligent AI. Jeff talks about why today’s AI is not intelligent, what we can do to change that, and why we need not fear it. #athousandbrainsOrder A Thousand Brains here: https://www.amazon.com/Thousand-Brains-New-Theory-Intelligence/dp/1541675819/

In this episode, author Jeff Hawkins talks to Numenta VP of Marketing Christy Maver about Part One of his new book A Thousand Brains. Part One: A New Understanding of the Brain unpacks the primary principles behind his groundbreaking Thousand Brains Theory of Intelligence. He highlights two of the key discoveries that led to the theory’s creation and how this powerful new framework lets us look at some of neuroscience’s problems with a new lens. #athousandbrainsOrder A Thousand Brains here: https://www.amazon.com/Thousand-Brains-New-Theory-Intelligence/dp/1541675819/

A Thousand Brains: A new theory of intelligence by Jeff Hawkins tackles one of life’s greatest mysteries: what is intelligence and how does the brain create it? In this episode, Jeff talks to Numenta VP of Marketing Christy Maver about the book, offering a preview of what readers can expect, why he wrote the book, and what each of the book’s three sections cover. (Part 1: A New Understanding of the Brain, Part 2: Machine Intelligence, and Part 3: Human Intelligence.) #athousandbrainsOrder A Thousand Brains here: https://www.amazon.com/Thousand-Brains-New-Theory-Intelligence/dp/1541675819/

Matt Taylor interviews Florian Fiebig, PhD, a Visiting Scientist at Numenta.

We're back! After a summer hiatus, we are back with a new episode. Host Matt Taylor talks to Numenta VP of Research Subutai Ahmad about the effort he has been leading in applying Numenta research and HTM principles to deep learning systems. This episode is also available as a video.

In this episode, host Matt Taylor asks Numenta co-founder Jeff Hawkins to define intelligence. Jeff outlines 3 components of intelligence, and revisits them through the lens of the Thousand Brains theory of Intelligence. According to Jeff, "The bottom line is that Intelligence is only as good as the model that you build."

Host Matt Taylor interviews Numenta VP Research Subutai Ahmad about his experience at this year's COSYNE conference. They discuss: What COSYNE is all aboutWhy Numenta attendsWhat Numenta presentedThen Matt dives into the content and asks Subutai about the difference between tonic and burst modeshow cells in the cortex control modes in the thalamuswhy would cortex control modes of thalamushow TC cells detect precise sparse codes from L6what the thalamus is providing in the FF input to L6the hypotheses suggested by the poster

In this episode, Matt Taylor, Numenta Open Source Community Manager, interviews Numenta Co-founder Jeff Hawkins about some of his latest research ideas. In particular, they discuss the thalamus.

Dr. Konrad Kording is a professor at University of Pennsylvania, known for his contributions to the fields of motor control, neural data methods, and computational neuroscience. He runs the Kording Lab, or K-Lab, which focused on computational neuroscience early on and now focuses on causality in data science applications. His lab has made an impact across many fields over time, including Bayesian brains, causal effects in human behavior, and uncertainty in the brain. In this episode, Matt Taylor interviews Dr. Kording over Skype about motor representations in the brain, intentionality, time-warping in neurons, and causality. A video of this episode is available on the HTM School YouTube channel.
