Bio

Brain and mind scientists and AI practicioner and visionary. Led for many years a lab at Max Planck Institute for Brain Research. I am foremost interested in i) closing the mind-body explanatory gap, and ii) using that knowledge to improve machine learning and AI. My work on brain research at Max Planck Institute led me to develop the theory of hierarchical adaptations (aka practopoiesis). From there I proposed the concept of AI-Kindergarten -- a method for creation of biological like artificial intelligence. Also, a few years back I introduced the concept of ideasthesia. Most recently I am active in applied machine learning and AI. See my videos and posts for an introduction to my work. For a full list of publications visit my personal web site (www.danko-nikolic.com)
