📘 A Thousand Brains: A New Theory of Intelligence by Jeff Hawkins

This book reveals a groundbreaking idea: our intelligence doesn’t come from one “big brain,” but from thousands of little brain units (called cortical columns), each learning and predicting the world in its own way. Together, they create human thought, creativity, and understanding.

Hawkins explains how the brain really works, why today’s AI is limited, and what true machine intelligence might look like. It’s a fascinating mix of neuroscience, technology, and the future of humanity — written in clear, simple language that anyone can follow.
