Why We Really Like Brains...

Tuesday, July 2nd, 2024

Very useful and coherent argument that our standard conception of intelligence, and our many attempts to define it, is deeply anthropocentric and misguided in its tendency to look for intelligence as a thing present in entities we want to call intelligent, or as a property or product of some part of anatomy — like the brain.

Excellent antidote to the usual discussions and assumptions of intelligence and refreshingly free of firm conclusions.
