Product Description

What Is Intelligence?: The Evolutionary Origins of the Predictive Mind

What if intelligence—human or artificial—is simply the ability to predict the future?

In What Is Intelligence?, Blaise Agüera y Arcas explores the revolutionary idea that prediction lies at the heart of intelligence, consciousness, and life itself. Drawing on neuroscience’s “predictive brain” hypothesis, he argues that the same forces that shaped biological evolution have naturally led to the rise of artificial intelligence.

Blending insights from AI research, neuroscience, physics, biology, and philosophy, Agüera y Arcas examines the computational foundations of living systems, the origins of intelligence in evolution and society, and the deep connection between entropy, time, and free will. He also explores the ethics of machine intelligence and what consciousness might mean in a world shared by humans and AI.

Rich with cutting-edge research and original findings from the author and his team, What Is Intelligence? presents a bold, unified theory of mind—from molecules and organisms to societies and machines—and makes a provocative case that modern AI systems may already possess the first sparks of true intelligence and free will.
