I think this is relevant to machine learning, because it discusses the idea of "top down" processing. This is a serious shortcoming of current neural networks, which are only capable of "bottom up" processing.
In post, he suggests that the lack of top down processing may be responsible for schizophrenia. It's funny to think that our current neural networks might be schizophrenic.
