Friston’s Law is Proven- Free Energy Principle Explains How Neurons Learn
from Spatial Web AI Podcast · host Denise Holt
1st Published August 15, 2023 - Friston’s Law is Proven- FEP Explains How Neurons Learn, written & narrated by Denise Holt. #ActiveInference #FreeEnergyPrinciple #KarlFriston Dr. Karl J. Friston, the Chief Scientist at VERSES AI, has developed a new kind of AI called Active Inference AI based on the Free Energy Principle (FEP). Researchers in Japan have proven that Friston's theory explains how the brain learns through self-organization and predictive modeling. This breakthrough has significant implications for neuroscience and AI research, as it offers a more sustainable, interpretable, and programmable approach to artificial intelligence. The combination of Active Inference AI, the Free Energy Principle, and the Spatial Web Protocol lays the foundation for a unified system of distributed collective intelligence that mimics biological intelligence. By understanding how brains handle perception and learning through Bayesian inference, researchers hope to achieve AGI or ASI in machines. VERSES AI is leading this revolutionary work in the field of artificial intelligence.
