Emergence of Creativity and Intelligence Creativity and human intelligence may just be an emergent property of a small number of algorithms operating with a lot of compute power. Many respected neocortex researchers believe there is effectively one algorithm for all intelligence. Human brains don’t look all that different from chimp brains, and yet somehow produce wildly different capabilities. Our own intelligence may just be the emergent combination of a bunch of cheap tricks.
