Hopefully, this will be a comprehensive collection of thoughts about the basis of general intelligence and how to achieve it with an artificial system. As I currently don't have the possibility to build such systems and do research on them, it will always stay a relatively high-level discussion. I still hope to spark some ideas on the larger concepts, and I am happy about anyone wanting to share their thoughts or a related good read they encountered. Maybe together, we will find some of the puzzle pieces toward real AGI.

Predictive Mind Theory is a very charming theory introduced by Jakob Hohwy, which aims to identify a simple mechanism with the ability to explain the fundamental workings of our brain, both overall and in detail. We will look into how this theory explains some interesting perks of human intelligence and how this can be transferred both to...
