For those who haven’t been able to take a look at Hawkins’s book On Intelligence, check out this very nice and brief summary here from 3 Quarks Daily.
The first few paragraphs are some basic introductory comments about neuroscience, so start a bit down the page…

Using Yahoo Pipes, we combined neuro/ai/cog-related RSS feeds from many sources into one, sometimes filtering along the way so as to minimize offtopic posts:
Ultimate neurodudes RSS feed (relatively inclusive version)
Feeds are periodically added and subtracted, but hopefully reflects the blogrolls below (but doesn't yet -- it's still under construction), except for those feeds which Yahoo Pipes had trouble processing, a list of which can be seen by checking the Pipe page.
Bayle's working on Google Reader bundles for neuroscience journals, and other neuro feeds. Like the Ultimate Neurodudes Feed, these are heavily under construction, and probably aren't very good yet.
Here's a neurodudes' friend feed on Twitter, which follows a bunch of people who often post interesting material.

I’m not entirely sure that this book, if accurately reviewed, will really be up my alley. It sounds as though it was written by someone who comes, as Hawkins does, from a strictly binary background. I appreciate the memory vs. computing strategy as well as the pattern recognition stuff and the heirarchical model, but there isn’t much mentioned regarding distributed modeling. At least not in the article. This may be just an artifact of the reviewer, however.
Just my thoughts. A little simplistic on the reviewer’s part.
