- Henning Beck is an engaging public speaker and champion Science Slammer in Germany. Here is a link to a popular TEDx talk he did on how the brain creates ideas https: //youtu.be/oJfFMoAgbv8
- In Scatterbrain, he explains how the flaws and mistakes of our brains, alike forgetfulness, re actually our secret weapons, enabling us to think more creatively.
- He also says our brains are better than computers or AI. AI may be able to outperform humans in playing games or recognizing faces - but we're able to invent new games or rules.
