In A Thousand Brains (2021), Jeff Hawkins explores how the brain learns countless models of the world and creates intelligence. He introduces a new understanding of the human mind and points out how human intelligence will most likely lead Earth and humanity to their demise with the help of AI. He also argues that understanding intelligence is the most important scientific research humans will ever conduct. Scientific discoveries and leading-edge technologies have immeasurably benefited the world, but they have also harmed it just as much, causing all sorts of disasters, from global warming to genetic manipulation. Humans have taken their intelligence and turned it into the biggest threat that humanity will ever face.
