Hey everyone, Do you think there would be any interest in a short talk on some neuroscience challenges to HTM theory? I am specifically thinking about dendritic computation, role of inhibitory neurons and non-Hebbian plasticity. I know this sounds dense, but I am reasonably sure I can make it sound accessible to people who have only On Intelligence and the white paper as their background.
