Description

Explore the profound connection between artificial intelligence, biological evolution, and the human mind. In What Is Intelligence?, Blaise Aguera y Arcas examines the surprising reality of modern AI, where neural networks designed for word prediction appear to develop general intelligence. This book connects these digital advancements to the predictive brain hypothesis, a concept held by neuroscientists suggesting that the brain evolved specifically to predict the future. By viewing prediction as a fundamental driver of life, the text offers a new way to understand the computational properties of living systems. This work is essential for readers interested in how biological processes and computing technologies converge to create intelligence. Whether you are studying evolutionary psychology or the frontiers of machine learning, this book provides a deep look at the mechanisms that define both organic and synthetic minds.

Key Features

Explores the predictive brain hypothesis and how biological systems evolved to anticipate the future.

Connects modern large neural networks to the broader concepts of general intelligence and computing.

Provides a new perspective on the computational properties found within living systems.

Examines the relationship between evolutionary biology and the development of artificial intelligence.

Published by MIT Press as part of the Antikythera series for deep intellectual inquiry.

Offers insights into how prediction serves as a fundamental element of life and intelligence.
