There is no greater pursuit than understanding the fundamental laws of intelligence. We see intelligence emerging through networks and connections - from neurons achieving consciousness through vast networks, to artificial neural networks growing more capable with billions of parameters, to the internet amplifying human knowledge through global connectivity.
Yet we still don't understand the fundamental principles of consciousness and biological intelligence. By studying how our brains process information at the neural level, we can make progress on both understanding intelligence and developing better ways to interface with our biology. This is our first step toward the natural progression of conscious life.
