The brain as a prediction and inference engine (the Bayesian brain) has been accepted by many in neuroscience. I think this article is novel because he rebels against this idea. I do think that many of the things that we consider intelligence are prediction, image recognition, speech comprehension, understanding other's theory of mind, and many games (e.g., chess). I think Deutsch's argument is that there is also creativity (and creative reasoning) that is omitted from today's approaches to AI.
