We produce content here to help educate people about how the brain works and how we can apply neuroscience principles to artificial intelligence and machine learning. We record our research meetings, share event presentations and create video tutorials about our theory on this channel.

Numenta's goal is to understand how the brain works and apply those core principles to today’s machine learning systems. We have developed a theory of how the neocortex works, called the “Thousand Brains Theory of Intelligence.” You can find more information about our theory, our neuroscience and machine learning research, peer-reviewed papers, machine intelligence technology (HTM), and even our daily research code, which we share in an open-source project, on our website numenta.com.

This channel is owned and run by Numenta, Inc.

Hey everyone! Have you seen our recent video where we discussed our co-founder Jeff’s book A Thousand Brains with Congressman Ro Khanna? The ‘Conversations on A Thousand Brains’ video series aims to extend the meaningful dialogues that the book has started and explore what our theory means for different fields and industries.

A quick poll for you: Would you like to see more of these conversations on our channel?

Feel free to comment on any suggestions!
