Don't computers have something like mirror neurons? That's like the basis of machine learning.

Deep. Some food for thought: Elon musk recently said that raising a child is just 18 years of “prompt engineering”. Similar to how we would train an AI model, from its original training data to the parameters we set, it’s able to be trained to do ANYTHING - all dependent on the prompts we input. Therefore the real value lies in engineering the “best” prompts to get the desired results. Akin to raising a child, if we can engineer the right environment or thought patterns to allow the child to make the connections and conclusions based on that environment we have solved the puzzle to get whatever outcome we want from that child. This is why they call them neutral networks because they are literally modelled off the brain. I imagine watching an AI model grow and make its own connections between data points is just like watching a child grow and make connections between different data points in the real world. Interesting stuff.

Didn’t Elon musks child disown him? 🤣

This makes me both lonely and less lonely :)

True talk

"Wireheads are beings who have changed their reward architecture in order to be happy all the time". Sound like any being you know?

amazing reading, thank you

i think lb is a good start

amazing piece

Eye opening POV

putting all that old gear in you skull? i just can't put my head around this ;)

somebody get apple on this

I’m more impressed you pay for the Financial Times

its insane that all of them aren't open source

doesn't this effectively make our brains open source at some stage?

Its worth noting that they were NOT using the processes usually associated with tdcs and so it not something that can be replicated at home.

Thanks I looked this up and found a vid about the details. This is currently working better than brain invasive approaches because it doesn't get taken over by surrounding tissue, it holds a lot of hope for paralyzed people for a start.

thanks, very helpful :)

Great video! We believe that Micro-Dosing helps with this awareness, the thinking, feeling and e-motion is under a spotlight. We have felt that Micro-Dosing gives you the time and mental clarity to become more conscious. And after time you start to become more in tune with that heart-brain coherence even when you are not Micro-Dosing.

@samCHED thanks for sharing ;-)

What a video. Coherence is key

why doesnt he talk about how to have coherence consistently or how to avoid this? :( or did my high ass just not listen properly.

id settle for every other day

Fascinating! so if the chip can convert signals from the brain and use them to control a computer, does that also mean there is potential for the computer to control the chip, and therefore control the brain?

i suppose none of us could even make an educated guess but still very interesting

yes, very

Can't see a scenario where that does not happen.

It will have too much to offer because it will understand what we want moment to moment.

Wow that’s insane 👏🏼

Insane in the brain

Interesting characters but it doesn't seem that original

I think that's it, as archetypical millennials they give Buddha a context for our age. They are a specific antidote to the online wuwei of today.

But you know this has to lead to an app

now that would be dope
