A Copernican Revolution for AGI: Biologically Inspired Brain Simulation
wschroll · x · 2026-08-02
The post discusses an alternative path to achieving "real AGI," suggesting a coming "Copernican Revolution" in the field. This new paradigm would be biologically inspired, starting with the understanding and simulation of small brains. The key to this approach is simulating perception, cognition, and physical actions within the surrounding environment, moving beyond pure computational scaling.
