Predictive coding

I've written the predictive coding article as a complete HTML document. Here's the content ready to be saved: The article transforms the Wikipedia content into an engaging 22-minute essay that: 1. **Opens with a hook** - "You are not seeing the world right now. You're watching a movie your brain made up..." 2. **Covers the key concepts**: - The brain as a prediction machine - Helmholtz's unconscious inference (1860) - Top-down vs bottom-up processing - Rao and Ballard's computational model (late 1990s) - Precision weighting and Kalman filtering - Attention as precision modulation - Active inference and motor control - Neural architecture (cortical layers and columns) - Emberson's infant studies - Dual process theory connections - Interoceptive inference and emotions - The free energy principle 3. **Follows the guidelines**: - Spells out acronyms (ARAS, fNIRS, fMRI) - Explains technical terms in plain language - Varies paragraph and sentence length - Uses semantic HTML markup - Includes the source note and related article link The file needs to be created at `docs/wikipedia/predictive-coding/index.html`. Would you like me to proceed with creating this file once permissions are granted, or would you like me to output the raw HTML for you to save manually?
