On Intelligence

I just finished reading Jeff Hawkin's On Intelligence in about two days... which is fast for me. I read Kurzweil's The Age of Spiritual Machines a few years ago and I still think that is a better introduction to computer AI and the future, but this is definitely a good and thought-provoking book. Hawkins defines intelligence as the ability to predict the future based on analogy from the past and goes into depth on how the human brain does this. I feel it's a refinement of neural networks more than a rejection of them, but I'm no expert. I'm just a guy that like non-fiction.
