Description

Neuroscientists don't believe in Artificial General Intelligence because they don't believe in General Intelligence. Instead they think the brain has multiple, specialized systems that work together to solve complex problems–more like a swarm of bees than a philosopher king. On this episode Katie and Patrick talk about the hive of brain systems living in your head and why this makes biological intelligence so robust and effective.
