do not build Infinite Jest (V), do not build the infinite AI TikTok slop machine, do not build the P-zombie AI boy/girlfriend, do not build the child-eating short-form video blackhole, do not build the human-feedback-optimized diffusion transformer porn generator. save yourselves

Super excited to share our new paper! We spent the past years building an alternative AI approach, and now we demonstrate a whole range of advantages. Robust object & pose detection, generalization, data and compute efficient training, continual learning, shape bias, and more!

If the neocortex runs a canonical computation, what is it? The Thousand Brains Theory proposes a sensorimotor algorithm where every column models the world using reference frames 🧠 In the new video, we explore all 6 cortical layers to reveal the biological blueprint:

Dy Mokomi Thousand Brains Project That matches well with the TBT. While the brain (and each neuron) makes predictions all the time, prediction errors are not the only information passed onward. They can be used to draw our attention, but our models are composed of features (including object IDs), not PEs.

I was at a robotics workshop a while ago, and someone famous boldly claimed: > "we've solved language and vision, and we did that with lots of data and next token prediction." My response was a predictable disappointment, followed by a facepalm. Vision is about inferring
