Some form of prediction being used by the higher-level neurons doesn't make the brain a prediction engine.

- naasking 3y agoI'm not sure who claimed the brain was a "predictive engine" or what that means exactly. The OP specifically referenced predictive coding which describes precisely what is meant, and has empirical support. If you meant this as a comparison to machine learning, then a predictive coding model closely matches.
