Many believe that AGI will develop independent of our understanding of the human brain, cognition, and consciousness. I personally find this quite strange — as if intelligence and cognition can be brute forced without having a good understanding of those concepts and how they apply to humans.

I’ve enjoyed the Chomsky interviews and I’ll probably read some of his references.
