Dopamine's role in learning: "Psychologists since the time of Pavlov have understood what it means for an animal to generate a prediction and to compare it to an outcome." "Those differences are encoded by dopamine. It's called a temporal difference error." "Most of the time it's the ongoing difference between your expectation and your next expectation. So it's fluctuations in your expectation as you move through the world." "An algorithm based on that is installed in brains, C slug brains all the way up to human brains."
