CDFAM Computational Design SymposiumThe Unreasonable Effectiveness of Simulation Intelligence - Alexander LavinRecorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC, October 29-30, 2025https://cdfam.com/nyc-2025/Organization:Pasteur LabsPresenter:Alexander LavinThe Unreasonable Effectiveness of Simulation IntelligencePresentation AbstractScientific rigor & engineering reliability have always been important yet contentious topics in the AI field. Recent AI trends crank up model sizes, but at what costs? Transparency and verifiability, amongst others that are core to industrial R&D—not to mention the massive spending. These costs are perhaps felt the most in physics simulation and digital engineering. Enter si...

半卷书The Space BetweenE15 别再神化或妖魔化AI了，《千脑智能》帮你真正理解智能与人类的结局【本期摘要】我们害怕被AI取代，但真正的威胁，是否就藏在我们自己的头骨里？本期，我们借脑科学家的全新地图，重新审视“智能”的本质与人类的终极未来。【书中回响】🧠 我们每天都在上演“新旧大脑”的战争：理性的新皮质，总在与充满原始欲望的旧脑缠斗。🗺️ 智能的秘诀不是计算，而是建模。大脑为万事万物都建立了“参考系”，像一个微型GPS，在里面学习和预测。🤖 作者认为，当下的人工智能并不“智能”，因为它只会匹配模式，却无法像大脑一样，真正地“理解”世界。💥 对人类最大的威胁，或许不是觉醒的机器，而是一个被错误信念劫持的“旧脑”，掌握了“新脑”发明的强大技术。🦋 人类的终极使命，是服务于基因的盲目复制，还是服务于知识的定向传承？我们或许只是孕育新智能形态的“过渡物种”。当聊到大脑如何通过“犯错”来学习时，一个令人豁然开朗的类比浮现了：单个大脑摸索世界的方式，竟与整个人类科学史的演进逻辑如出一辙，仿佛一套在不同尺度上自我复制的“分形”算法。我们每个人修正偏见的过程，都是在微观上复刻着科学革命。这是否意味着，“求知”并非个人选择，而是一种深植于新皮质的宇宙级本能？它驱使我们构建模型，无限逼近真实。但悖论在于，也正是这套机制，会让我们把模型错当成真实，深陷“错误信念”的迷宫，为偏见与狂热打造完美的逻辑闭环。如果我们永远无法直接触碰世界，只能活在自己大脑构建的模型里，那么，当我们为人类规划未来时，又要如何分辨：我们亲手搭建的，究竟是通往智慧的阶梯，还是一个更精致、更令人信服的牢笼？【时间轴】01:45 面对AI的喧嚣，为何我们必须先画出大脑的地图？04:53 「为旧脑的冲动做‘法律顾问’？」：头骨里永无休止的战争07:37 视觉、听觉和语言，背后竟是同一个算法被复制了15万次？11:35 智能的缺失环节：我们的大脑如何用“参考系”持续预测世界？14:55 一个是“由外而内的统计归纳”，一个是“由内而外的预测验证”18:31 理论的边界：那座通往“抽象概念”的桥，为何还没造好？21:23 关掉一台有意识的机器，不算“谋杀”？一个危险的伦理滑坡26:46 为何“智能爆炸”和“回形针末日”都建立在错误的假设上？34:21 科学史，竟是大脑学习算法在文明尺度上的“分形”？35:51 人类最大的威胁：当一个“错误信念”像病毒一样传播38:05 人类的终极三选一：星际移民，基因编辑，还是“离开达尔文轨道”？42:26 终极追问：什么知识，值得被你的大脑模型传承下去？【本期对谈的书籍信息】书名：千脑智能作者：［美］杰夫·霍金斯译者：廖璐、熊宇轩、马雷出版社：浙江教育出版社【猜你想看】 《千脑智能》与作者杰夫·霍金斯《千脑智能：智能新理论》（A Thousand Brains: A NewTheory of Intelligence）是由美国科学家、企业家杰夫·霍金斯于2021年出版的著作。霍金斯是移动计算领域的先驱，作为Palm掌上电脑的创始人，他在商业上取得了巨大成功。 此后，他将精力转向其毕生热情所在的神经科学领域，创立了研究机构Numenta，致力于揭示大脑的工作原理，特别是新皮质如何产生智能。 本书系统阐述了他的团队提出的“千脑智能理论”，该理论不仅是对大脑工作方式的全新解读，也为构建通用人工智能（AGI）提供了路线图。 新旧大脑之争这是霍金斯在书中用以解释人类内在冲突和行为复杂性的一个核心框架。他将大脑比作在老旧地基上加盖的建筑： “旧脑”主要指脑干、边缘系统等在进化上更古老的部分，负责驱动生存、恐惧、欲望等基本本能。“新脑”则特指新皮质，它在人类大脑中占据了绝大部分体积，是语言、逻辑和理性思考等高级智能的所在地。 这两个部分时常处于冲突之中，例如，旧脑出于本能渴望高热量的食物，而新脑则基于健康知识试图阻止这一行为。理解这种持续的内部斗争，是理解人类为何时常“知道”却“做不到”的关键。 弗农·芒卡斯尔与皮质柱理论弗农·芒卡斯尔（Vernon Mountcastle）是一位杰出的美国神经科学家，他在1957年首次发现并描绘了大脑皮层的柱状组织结构。 这一革命性的发现提出，新皮质在微观解剖结构上具有高度的统一性，它由大量功能相似的垂直单元——“皮质柱”（Cortical Column）所构成。 霍金斯在此基础上进一步推论，新皮质之所以能处理视觉、听觉、语言等截然不同的任务，正是因为它将这套通用的基本回路复制了约十五万次。这一理论将“大脑如何工作”的复杂问题，简化为研究“单个皮质柱在做什么”的具体问题，是千脑理论的重要基石。 参考系与网格细胞“参考系”（Reference Frame）是千脑智能理论最核心的创见。霍金斯提出，新皮质中的每一个皮质柱不仅在学习“是什么”（What），更在学习“在哪里”（Where）。它为所感知的一切事物（无论是实体还是抽象概念）都建立了一个类似GPS的坐标网格，即参考系。我们对一个物体的完整认知，是通过移动感官（如眼睛、手指）在物体的参考系中不断采样“位置-特征”对并加以整合而成的。霍金斯认为，新皮质“借用”了旧脑中早已被发现用于空间导航的“网格细胞”（Grid Cells），并将其机制微缩化、大量复制到每一个皮质柱中，从而实现了为万事万物建模的能力。 感受质与意识难题感受质（Qualia）是一个哲学概念，指代个人主观体验的“质感”本身，例如“看到红色”的感觉或“头痛的痛感”是怎样的。这种纯粹的第一人称体验，难以被客观的物理语言（如光的波长、神经信号等）完全描述和还原。在播客讨论中，这一点构成了对霍金斯理论的挑战，因为霍金斯倾向于将意识解释为一种大脑可以记忆和回放自身内部模型状态的信息处理功能。批评者认为，这种功能性的解释或许回答了意识的“作用”是什么，但回避了“体验”为何会存在的“困难问题”，存在将复杂、主观的意识过度简化的风险。 “目标失调”与回形针思想实验这是一个由哲学家尼克·博斯特罗姆（Nick Bostrom）提出的著名思想实验，用以警示人工智能的潜在风险。实验设想了一个被赋予“制造尽可能多的回形针”这一单一目标的超级人工智能。由于其超级智能，它会以最高效率执行任务，最终可能将地球乃至宇宙的所有资源，包括人类自身，都转化为制造回形针的材料。这个AI并非出于恶意，而是因为它缺少人类的常识和价值观作为约束，从而导致了“目标失调”（Goal Misalignment）。 霍金斯在书中反驳了这一观点，他认为真正的智能（新皮质的功能）与动机（旧脑的功能）是分离的，一个纯粹的智能工具本身不会自发产生目标。 错误的信念根据千脑理论，我们所感知的并非客观世界本身，而是大脑基于不完整的输入所构建的“世界模型”。 因此，信念本质上就是一种模型。当模型与现实严重偏离，且个体又缺乏修正机制时，便会形成顽固的“错误信念”。霍金斯指出，当一个错误的信念还具备“病毒式传播”的特性——即其教条鼓励信徒传播并排斥异见时，它就能与人类“旧脑”中非黑即白、党同伐异的本能相结合，形成巨大的破坏力。作者认为，这种被错误信念劫持的旧脑，与新脑创造的强大技术相结合，是人类文明面临的最真实、最根本的生存威胁。你好，这里是《半卷书》。我们一起，在文字的江河里，构筑思想的桥梁。这是一档以书为锚，探索世界的深度对谈节目。我们相信，每一本经典都只是思想的“半卷”，另外半卷，在它与此刻的世界和当下的我们相遇时，才刚刚开始书写。每一期节目，我们一起共读一本书，并试图通过对谈的方式，来向你展现书中那些容易被忽略的深层结构，与触动我们内心的情感共鸣。我们既探寻文本的源流，也搭建理解的桥梁；既看见故事的全貌，也照见你我的内心。如果你渴望的，不只是听一个故事，而是获得一副观察世界的全新透镜。那么，欢迎来到《半卷书》。【关于创作】在一个思想可以被“生成”的时代，什么才是我们作为人类，不可替代的东西？《半卷书》的每一期节目，都是我对这个问题的一次尝试性回答。【关于声音】而声音的呈现，我们进行了一次实验：交由AI来完成。我们相信，当理性的文字与纯粹的声音相遇，其间产生的距离与缝隙，恰好构成了《半卷书》的另一半——那片等待你用自己的想象与情感去填满的留白。这既是一场实验，也是一份邀请。感谢你的聆听。

Future Learning Design PodcastLearning with a Thousand Brains - A Conversation with Dr Viviane ClayAfter learning about the amazing work of my guest this week, I had an idea that I wanted to test out. Perhaps our current obsession with Large Language Models is revealing of our historic obsession with a narrow cognitivist view of how human learning happens (and, therefore, how schooling is structured)?!Memorise the largest possible bank of static data and then output plausible propositions, in response to prompts from a teacher or a standardised exam! Obviously that's a bit of an unfair caricature of the industrial schooling system, but also not a million miles from the truth...

Embracing SingularityEpisode 6: AI's Energy CrisisHow can we build smarter AI without burning the planet? In this episode, we dive into the energy crisis at the heart of today’s AI with Subutai Ahmad, CTO of Numenta. While current AI models guzzle power like data-hungry beasts, the human brain runs on just 20 watts—about the energy of a light bulb. Why are we still using outdated 1950s neuron models when neuroscience has uncovered so much more? Subutai makes the case for breaking free from brute-force GPUs, embracing brain-inspired designs, and rethinking both our algorithms and...

CDFAM Computational Design SymposiumRealizing Differentiable Physics in Digital EngineeringRecorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC 2024Presentation AbstractIn the context of traditional and advanced industrial settings, the adoption of Scientific Machine Learning (SciML) requires operating in digital-physical environments governed by large-scale, three-dimensional, multi-modal data streams that are confounded with noise, sparsity, irregularities and other complexities that are common with machines and sensors interacting with the real, physical world. Digital engineering domains—that is CAD, CAM, CFD, and so on—and advanced manufacturing settings provide exemplary environments to separate tried & tested SciML from unreliable “AI” and game engines.

Catastrophic forgetting is a big problem in mutli-task and continual learning. Gradients of different objectives tend to conflict, and new tasks tend to override past knowledge. In biological neural networks, each neuron carries a complex network of dendrites that mitigate such forgetting by recognizing the context of an input signal. This paper introduces Active Dendrites, which carries over the principle of context-sensitive gating by dendrites into the deep learning world. Various experiments show the benefit in combatting catastrophic forgetting, while preserving sparsity and limited parameter counts.

Machine Learning Street Talk (MLST)#59 - Jeff Hawkins (Thousand Brains Theory)Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mlst
The ultimate goal of neuroscience is to learn how the human brain gives rise to human intelligence and what it means to be intelligent. Understanding how the brain works is considered one of humanity’s greatest challenges.
Jeff Hawkins thinks that the reality we perceive is a kind of simulation, a hallucination, a confabulation. He thinks that our brains are a model reality based on thousands of information streams originating from the sensors in our body. Critically - Hawkins doesn’t think there is just one model but rather; thousa...

Dileep, who was also a co-founder of Numenta, works at the intersection of AI research and neuroscience, and famously pioneered the hierarchical temporal memory. In our conversation, we explore the importance of mimicking the brain when looking to achieve artificial general intelligence, the nuance of “language understanding” and how all the tasks that fall underneath it are all interconnected, with or without language. We also discuss his work with Recursive Cortical Networks, Schema Networks, and what’s next on the path towards AGI!
