Book 5 → A Brief History of Intelligence: Why The Evolution of The Brain Holds The Key To The Future of AI (Max Bennett)

​Theme: Biology & AI

​Maps five evolutionary breakthroughs that crafted human cognition and connects those milestones to the limits of current AI, especially its inflexibility and failure at sequential learning.

​Bennett, a software entrepreneur who co-founded AI-driven startups, argues that understanding natural intelligence evolution is vital for building truly adaptive AI—and he doesn’t dumb down complex neuroscience for general readers.
