Adaptive Intelligence
An innate [see page 2, ability] to use information to educate yourself on the surroundings and
climate. Most humans can do this from birth. Put simply brains cause minds.
Adaptive intelligence is underpinned by the [see page 5, belief] that better understanding of the biological brains could play a vital role in building intelligent machines.
If a known algorithm is subsequently found to be implemented in the brain, then that is strong support for its plausibility as an integral component of an overall general intelligence system. - [see page 7, Demis Hassabis et al], Deepmind, Neuron Review 2017
Advantages of Brain Inspired Computing
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Adaptable | Easily adapts to new situations and picks up new knowledge |
| Parallel Processing | Many thought chains can be happening concurrently in the background |
| Power Efficient | More efficient application of resources than conventional brute force |
| Works with noisy data | Can efficiently respond to noisy or unreliable data |
| Highly fault tolerant | We aren't limited to any small scale faults in the brain |
Observe that a state of the art computer can solve a problem over a night, but its effectively used a full years worth of the same power a human would've to solve the same problem.
Biological Plausibility
Refers to how inspired a process can be in relation to a biological system.
Example is this algorithm likely to be found in a biological organism?
