Neuroscience Weekly: Why Does Your Brain Predict the Future?

· 10 min

Show notes

The human brain is constantly making predictions about what will happen next—but how does it do this? In this episode of Neuroscience Weekly, I explore predictive processing and how your brain uses past experiences to anticipate and interpret the world around you.
We'll look at prediction errors, perception, learning, and uncertainty, and explore what happens when your brain's expectations don't match reality. I also mention how anxiety relates to all of this.
