Jeff Hawkins explains why intelligence is based on memory and prediction, not behavior. Which leads me to these questions…If intelligence is the ability to remember and be able to predict what will happen next, then is creativity the ability let go of predictions (preconceived notions) and open to all the other possibilities? Is creativity an anti-prediction mechanism that keeps the brain from insisting that something that looks and feels the same as a previous experience is absolutely the same (the old looks like a duck, quacks like a duck syndrome?)?
