I recently read “A Brief History of Intelligence” by Max Bennett — and I highly recommend you check it out — it’s an absolutely brilliant book! I will be having a few conversations with Max but for now here is a taster from our first chat about how our brain works like a simulation machine. You can buy his book from Amazon — https://amzn.to/3weN3uS Watch behind the scenes, get early access and join the private Discord by supporting us on Patreon. We have some amazing content going up there with Kenneth Stanley this week!
