Neuroscience of Perception and the Thousand Brains Theory
This chapter explores how the brain constructs a unified perception of the world through distinct cortical columns processing various sensory inputs. It delves into the Thousand Brains Theory, highlighting the brain's ability to create independent models and the efficient communication between these columns that aids in rapid decision-making. Additionally, the chapter discusses the implications for artificial intelligence, emphasizing the need for systems that truly understand their environments rather than just performing well on benchmarks.
