All Notes

  • When this system is up and running, because it can learn continuously (unlike current AI), it will be just like Johnny 5 from Short Circuit movie. More input! Read more

  • Finally we have a sensor, a thalamus, a column and a voting module. It is all neuroscience legit although we did keep some things simple at the moment. The sensor is retina-like, with several patches, partially overlapping. Each patch takes… Read more

  • I see the current AI as the next evolution of search.. It brings search into the context where i’m working.. therefore it can build more context around what i’m searching. It uses a different kind of index than google, far… Read more

  • Watching “2025/09 – How Does the Neocortex Split and Combine Models Without Relearning”.. I feel like all the confusion is arising from the fact that Monty’s implementation is too software-like.. Poses, for example, have to use grid-cells, or grid-cell-like implementation,… Read more

  • Based on the team discussions I’m watching in the more recent videos, there is a disconnect between how @JeffCHawkins is thinking and how the Monty folks are thinking about the problem. Jeff is approaching it from the neuroscience point of… Read more

  • Each column has its own reference frame (via grid-cells), which aid in modeling behavior (anything else?). the column is given the sensory input and the pose and it needs to first model the morphology. Is that correct so far? Read more

  • Just watching “2025/07 – Hierarchy or Heterarchy”.. It’s partially talking about the parent/child object issue. ChatGPT and I thought those designations aren’t a good idea as it would break the “all the columns work the same way” principle. Columns shouldn’t… Read more

  • The cortical column creates three kinds of models, features, features at poses (morphology) and behaviors. Do all three of these models have their independent reference frames (i.e. grid cells) according to the team discussions and the available neuroscience? Read more

    In

  • “2025/07 – Proposal for Separating Behavior Models” proposes breaking up morphology modeling and behavior modeling from being inside a single LM to separate LMs. Two ways to look at it: In terms of software/Monty, these are minor changes. In terms… Read more

  • One thing that has been a continuous source of confusion in understanding how composite objects are recognized and how behavioral models are built (which necessitate multiple objects) is: I haven’t caught up with the latest videos yet, so perhaps these… Read more
