✅ Summary -

What Is Intelligence?: Lessons from AI About Evolution, Computing, and Minds by Blaise Agüera y Arcas argues that intelligence, from molecules to AI, is fundamentally about prediction and modeling reality, exploring its origins in evolution, the role of computation, and the emergence of mind and consciousness, challenging traditional views by suggesting modern AI systems possess aspects of intelligence, consciousness, and free will. Published in 2025, the book connects biology, physics, neuroscience, and computer science, proposing a unified theory of intelligence as computational symbiogenesis—an ongoing process of learning and predicting in complex systems, including humans and AI.
