"On Intelligence develops a theory of how the human brain works, explaining why computers are not intelligent and how, based on this new theory, we can finally build intelligent machines. Previous attempts at replicating human intelligence - through artificial intelligence and neural networks - have not succeeded. Their mistake, Hawkins argues, was in trying to emulate human behavior without first understanding what intelligence is." "In a style that will captivate audiences from the merely curious to the professional scientist, On Intelligence explains what intelligence is, how the brain works, and how this knowledge will finally make it possible for us to build intelligent machines, in silicon, that will not simply imitate but exceed our human ability in surprising ways."--BOOK JACKET.
