What is consciousness? - Michael S. A. Graziano
Explore the theories of human consciousness and the science of how your brain works to create a conscious experience.
--
Patient P.S. suffered a stroke that damaged the right side of her brain, leaving her unaware of everything on her left side. If someone threw a ball at her left side, she might duck. But she wouldn’t have awareness of the ball or know why she ducked. Where does consciousness come from? Michael Graziano explores the question that has vexed scientists and philosophers for centuries.

Unlocking the Human Consciousness: Are You Truly Sentient?
Part 2 of 6
Full Video: https://youtu.be/5PmXhm0q_5g
We're diving deep into the mind-boggling question: Are humans the original AI? Whether you believe in the Bible or evolution, humans are not the source. So buckle up, because this video is about to take you on a mind-altering journey into the realms of consciousness, simulation, and the elusive concept of sentience and whether the AI we're building can ever achieve it. We'll also look at an interpretation of the story of Adam and Eve from the Bible, and see how see how it could support or refute the idea that humans are the original AI. I hope you enjoy the video!

Will artificial intelligence ever become sentient? - BBC News
In 2022, a Google engineer claimed one of the firm’s artificial intelligence (AI) systems, LaMDA, had become sentient.
Google fired the engineer, calling his claims “unfounded”, with experts largely agreeing that the advanced chat bot had not gained consciousness.
However, computer sentience has been the subject of fierce debate for decades – and questions remain as to whether AI will, or even can, become conscious.

Scientists Discuss The Science of Perception & AI
Are we all living in a simulation inside our brains? Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Chuck Nice and Gary O’Reilly learn about the root of perception, if AI really is intelligent, and The Free Energy Principle with theoretical neuroscientist Karl Friston.
Discover the Free Energy Principle as a framework for understanding how the brain self-organizes and minimizes uncertainty about the world. Does the brain keep an internal model of the world that it continues to update? How does this principle relate to perception, decision-making, and the human experience? How does our brain, a blob of neurons locked inside a skull, make sense of the chaotic data it receives from the world?
Friston introduces us to "Active Inference," the application of this principle, explaining how the brain samples ...

How Did Life Begin? Neil deGrasse Tyson on Life on Earth & Beyond
How did life begin? Neil deGrasse Tyson gives his take about life on Earth and beyond. Tyson also explains Panspermia.
Earth is the only place we know of so far that’s inhabited by living things. It is the only world in our solar system with liquid water on the surface. Does this mean that our beloved planet is the only planet in the Universe that supports life? According to Neil deGrasse Tyson, to think that we are the only place where life found its way would be arrogant.
Some of today's most brilliant minds are actively considering whether life got to Earth from elsewhere in the Universe. The idea is that life would form in one place across space and then by some mechanism or another, transfer from that place where it formed to another place. This leads to the question whether liv...

Are we all living in a simulation inside our brains? Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Chuck Nice and Gary O’Reilly learn about the root of perception, if AI really is intelligent, and The Free Energy Principle with theoretical neuroscientist Karl Friston.
Discover the Free Energy Principle as a framework for understanding how the brain self-organizes and minimizes uncertainty about the world. Does the brain keep an internal model of the world that it continues to update? How does this principle relate to perception, decision-making, and the human experience? How does our brain, a blob of neurons locked inside a skull, make sense of the chaotic data it receives from the world?
Friston introduces us to "Active Inference," the application of this principle, explaining how the brain samples the environment and updates its beliefs to create a cohesive understanding of reality. He discusses how psychiatric disorders, like schizophrenia, can arise when there’s a mismatch between the brain’s internal model and external reality, and how this theory could one day help explain and treat these conditions.
We explore how these ideas from neuroscience can be used in artificial intelligence and large language models, discussing the limits of machine learning. Can AI truly possess intelligence? Or is it merely following pre-programmed paths, unable to build the complex internal models humans use to navigate the world? Can AGI– artificial general intelligence– ever be achieved in a machine? What do we even mean when we say AGI? Does an objective reality even exist?

How did life begin? Neil deGrasse Tyson gives his take about life on Earth and beyond. Tyson also explains Panspermia.
Earth is the only place we know of so far that’s inhabited by living things. It is the only world in our solar system with liquid water on the surface. Does this mean that our beloved planet is the only planet in the Universe that supports life? According to Neil deGrasse Tyson, to think that we are the only place where life found its way would be arrogant.
Some of today's most brilliant minds are actively considering whether life got to Earth from elsewhere in the Universe. The idea is that life would form in one place across space and then by some mechanism or another, transfer from that place where it formed to another place. This leads to the question whether living organisms have been transported between the planets of our solar system by the same mechanism.
Scientists are exploring several possible locations for the origin of life. One hypothesis is that life originated near a deep sea hydrothermal vent. The chemicals found in these vents and the energy they provide could have fueled many of the chemical reactions necessary for the evolution of life. Furthermore, using the DNA sequences of modern organisms, scientists have tentatively traced the most recent common ancestor of all life to an aquatic microorganism that lived in extremely high temperatures — a likely candidate for a hydrothermal vent inhabitant!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8tX7kMJDT4&list=PLjXIWFqq10SLNrD1YZenZQ88kMg_msS5x&index=3 Interview with Brett Kagan from Cortical Labs on their synthetic biological intelligence.
FinalSpark have developed an AI-human brain hybrid which they claim is 1 billion times more energy efficient than other AI. My initial reaction was somewhere between concern and horror. I think that creating a sentient AI is something we should be very cautious about, and this feels like it might edge closer to that line.

Consciousness is feeling. Thoughts are ways we maintain our homeostasis. A quick conversation with Mark Solms and Andrea Hiott on the topics of Mark's wonderful book The Hidden Spring.
The Mysteries of the Mind: From Childhood Trauma to Neuroscience Insights
In this thought-provoking episode, we uncover a deeply personal journey sparked by a childhood trauma that led to a fascination with the brain and consciousness. Join us as a dedicated neuropsychologist and psychoanalyst shares how their brother's severe brain injury at a young age ignited a lifelong quest to understand the mind-body connection. We explore reflections on mortality, the challenges within academia, and pivotal discoveries about the brainstem's role in consciousness. Delve into Freud's neuroscience roots, the subjective nature of the mind, and how feelings underpin our conscious experiences. This episode bridges historical perspectives with contemporary research, offering profound insights into the architecture of consciousness and the essence of human awareness.
