What are the origins and basis of intelligence? How close are we to building machines that learn and think like humans and other animals? In this course, we will explore how cognitive abilities are distributed across the animal kingdom, which abilities are uniquely human, and our current progress building artificial intelligence that mimics human intelligence. We will cover a range of topics (object perception, navigation, mathematics, social cognition, culture, morality, consciousness), providing a broad overview of the connection between biological and artificial intelligence.
