This theory is very intriguing and intuitively makes sense. I read Hawkins' book way back in 2004 but there haven't been any successful implementations by Numenta. Mostly toy examples AFAICT. I would love to be wrong and see some great applications come out of this (much like the AI spring 2011- using conv nets etc.)

I think cortical.io has had success with Numenta. I also read Hawkin's book and loved it. I'm still hoping that they'll get something going.

  Do we need a background in neurobiology to understand Hawkin's - "On Intelligence"?

    No - it's actually pretty straightforward. I think I should read it again :-)

    Not really. Although it delves in biology quite a bit, It was an easy read for me (I have zero neuroscience background)
