Advances in the quest to understand intelligence

15 videos • 2,224 views • by MITCBMM MIT's Quest for Intelligence aims to understand intelligence by tightly coupling scientific enquiry and rigorous engineering to address real-world problems that are beyond current machine capabilities but within the ability of natural intelligence. To achieve this vision, the study of natural intelligence and efforts to build intelligent systems must be treated as two interlocked aspects of the same grand challenge, with neuroscientists and cognitive scientists working alongside computer scientists and software engineers. On November 4, researchers from the Quest and its science driver — the Center for Brains, Minds, and Machines — will share the latest progress on understanding natural intelligence and how we aim to use that scientific progress to drive the future of AI and other impact areas. Please mark your calendars for this day-long series of presentations and conversations about our vision, our most recent progress, and the future of research on the Science and Engineering of Intelligence.
