Chapter 2 – Does it Work Like Magic?

Book

On Intelligence - How a New Understanding of the Brain Will Lead to the Creation of Truly Intelligent Machines  by Jeff Hawkins and Sandra Blakeslee

​

Note: Although the central theme of "Positive Actions" has nothing to do with building intelligent machines, we still believe that reading the book "On Intelligence" is worthwhile because it offers a good perspective on how the human brain is structured and how it works.
