Computing like the Brain: the Path to Machine Intelligence • Jeff Hawkins • GOTO 2013

This presentation was recorded at GOTO Aarhus 2013 http://gotocon.com Jeff Hawkins - Brain Inspired Computing ABSTRACT Understanding how the brain works and building machines that work on the same principles is one of the greatest quests of our time. In this talk I will describe recent advances in neocortical theory, including why the brain uses sparse distributed representations and how the brain makes predictions from high velocity sensory data streams. I will demonstrate a product called Grok, that uses a detailed model of neocortical memory to act on machine generated data and how developers can contribute to the development of intelligent machines via the NuPIC open source project (www.numenta.org). https://twitter.com/gotocon https://www.facebook.com/GOTOConference http://gotocon.com
