About this audiobook
Unified Theory of Learning & Generalization
At root, what’s missing is a principled, unified theory of how generalization, representation, memory, reward, and adaptation all integrate. Human cognition seems to have solved this. Today’s models… haven’t. Until we solve that — progress will remain uneven, brittle, and surprising in both good and bad ways.
