"You can't imagine how much detail we know about brains. There were 28,000 people who went to the neuroscience conference this year, and every one of them is doing research in brains. A lot of data. But there's no theory. There's a little, wimpy box on top there"
- Jeff Hawkins
About this Quote
This quote by Jeff Hawkins suggests that although there is a huge quantity of information readily available on the brain, there is still a lack of a thorough theory to discuss all of it. The fact that 28,000 individuals participated in a neuroscience conference this year is a testament to the quantity of research being done on the brain, yet Hawkins implies that this research is inadequate to form a detailed theory. He refers to the lack of a theory as a "little, wimpy box", suggesting that the current understanding of the brain is limited. This quote highlights the requirement for more research and understanding of the brain in order to form a comprehensive theory.
