Book Review: On Intelligence
نویسنده
چکیده
It naturally makes researchers bristle when a new guy comes along and makes grand pronouncements that everyone else has missed the big idea. Stephan Wolfram encountered some of that with his 1192 page tome, “A New Kind of Science” where he argued that cellular automata do much better at simulating complex phenomena than more sophisticated models. It helps things not a bit when the new guy struck it rich by inventing a cool tech gizmo and now wants to do “real science.” Jeff Hawkins is such a man, asserting that he has studied the esoteric findings of brain researchers, and has new insight about how it all fits together.
