- Evolution of human cortical circuits for reading and arithmetic: The “neuronal recycling” hypothesis by Stanislas Dehaene, From monkey brain to human brain, MIT Press 2004
- this can be considered as an efficiency application to Mind
- to test this compare how network algorithms would apply to such a situation
- "The present hypothesis bears considerable similarity with a classical Darwinian concept which has been called “tinkering” by François Jacob (1977) or “exaptation” by Gould and Vrba (1982) – the re-utilization, during phylogenesis, of biological mechanisms for a new function different from the one for which they evolved."
- "each cultural acquisition must find its ecological niche in the human brain, a circuit whose initial role is close enough and whose flexibility is sufficient to be reconverted to this new role."
- it also could explain why there might be no need to precisely encode in DNA the location of neural circuitry but rather let it self-organize later on by usage yet still find similarities between individuals
- despite the differences of timing and context incremental learning, building open what has previously been learn, would leverage the most efficient network topology thus finding similar "solutions" in different brains
- Concluding predictions
- Our genetic envelope should limit the set of learnable cultural objects
- Learning difficulty should depend on the distance between the initial function and the new one.
- Cultural learning may reduce the cortical space available for previous abilities.

- "the traditional notion of surprise is rejected. Neither the arbitrary nor the fully predictable is truly novel or surprising. Only data with still unknown algorithmic regularities are" (p9)
- "a bias towards exploring previously unknown environmental regularities is a priori good in the real world as we know it, and should be inserted into practical Artificial General Intelligences (AGIs)" (p15)
