Active Inference and Spatial AI
Exclusive Inside Look: One-on-One with Cortical Labs’ Chief Scientist - From DishBrain to CL1
Fusing neurons with silicon chips might sound like science fiction, but for Cortical Labs, it represents what’s possible in AI and computing.
Ten Years Later: Katryna Dow Reflects on Data Privacy & Decentralizd Identity
Ten years ago, on March 31, 2015, I interviewed Katryna Dow, CEO and Founder of Meeco, to discuss an emerging concern: personal data privacy. A decade later, Katryna and I reunite to revisit these topics, examining how data privacy, digital identity, and decentralized architectures have dramatically evolved, often validating Katryna’s early concerns.
The Dawn of True AI Agency: Why Active Inference is Surpassing LLMs and Shaping the Future
We stand at a critical juncture in AI that few truly understand. LLMs can automate tasks but lack true agency. AI “agency” represents a fundamental departure from the pattern-matching paradigm of LLMs. It requires systems that can perceive, decide, and act autonomously in an environment while understanding the causal relationships that govern their world.

“Deep Learning is Rubbish” — Karl Friston & Yann LeCun Face Off at Davos 2024 World Economic Forum
In a panel hosted by the Financial Times at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, two of the biggest names in artificial intelligence — Dr. Karl Friston of VERSES AI, and Dr. Yann LeCun of Meta — discussed their aligned, yet contrasting visions for the future of AI, with Friston proclaiming, “Deep Learning is Rubbish,” with Yann LeCun asserting, “The future of AI is non-generative.”
Turning Point in AI - Leaders Rally for a Natural AI Initiative
A pivotal roundtable discussion held by the Boston Global Forum, the Active Inference Institute, and the Neuropsychiatry and Society Program on December 12, 2023, marked a significant turning point in our understanding and development of artificial intelligence.
This group of leaders came together to to discuss a letter signed by 25 neuroscientists, biologists, physicists, policy makers, AI researchers, entrepreneurs, and directors of research labs on a joint initiative proposing a radical rethinking of AI’s trajectory, advocating for a model of AI that is fundamentally different from the data-intensive, computationally expensive systems that dominate today’s landscape.
Their meeting signifies growing momentum behind a new approach to AI called Active Inference, developed by world renowned neuroscientist, Dr. Karl Friston, Chief Science Officer at VERSES AI, that leads to more transparent, ethical and beneficial intelligent systems.
