Explore the cutting-edge field of brain-inspired computing in this thought-provoking conference talk from GOTO Aarhus 2013. Delve into recent advances in neocortical theory as Jeff Hawkins, a prominent figure in the quest for machine intelligence, explains the principles behind brain function and how they can be applied to artificial intelligence. Discover why the brain utilizes sparse distributed representations and learn about its remarkable ability to make predictions from high-velocity sensory data streams. Gain insights into Grok, a product that employs a detailed model of neocortical memory to process machine-generated data. Learn how developers can contribute to the development of intelligent machines through the NuPIC open source project. This 51-minute presentation offers a fascinating glimpse into the future of computing and the potential for creating machines that think like the human brain.
