For someone who has Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (chronic fatigue syndrome), there is an intense, first hand knowledge of metabolic efficiency and how it effects every second of our lives. Everyone experiences it in different ways but from what I've experienced, it's like having difficulty doing 2+ things at once at the risk of burning out my internal "battery". Sitting up while eating and being able to hold a conversation is now impossible. Sitting up, which uses your muscles and balance systems is an action, coordinating your hands to bring the food to your mouth is another, digesting is another and being able to string words together to verbalize is another. The brain takes up so much energy so the power needed for other parts of the body isn't there when trying to do things simultaneously. Digesting food then takes energy away from the brain so I need to lay down in silence. When I try to talk, it comes out gibberish like I'm having a stroke. Once I'm done digesting my food, my speech comes back. Before getting sick, I didn't even think about how so many things in the body need to be coordinated at every moment to allow us to be functional. It's truly a miracle how many reactions and mechanisms must work perfectly just for simple movements. This is something that should never be taken for granted!

"Lizard" is just shorthand for "primitive". I wouldn't worry about it too much or take it too seriously.

Considering we evolved from primates... "the only animal that has a lizard brain-is a lizard." Yuhhhh. 😅

Sensory systems, called taxis, are far more remarkable beyond humans and wonder if the brain and its level of consciousness would make sensory awareness, beyond what we have, intolerable-- never able to get enough restorative sleep, etc. If we were fine with a few minutes of sleep, our taxis consciousness may be far greater than the basic taxis survival brain. An aside, it irked to hear that she has no clue from where the oldest part of the human brain is derived/shared. We clearly share most of our brain evolution with mammals...

basically the brain more likely evolved to efficiently coordinate the sense and motor functions of the body, minimizing energy loss and maximize chance of reproduction, even if the brain consumes most of the energy of the body.

Brains are also like internet browsers with search-assist turned on. When presented with sensory input they respond as a browser would searching our memories - even if only tacitly - looking for "something" to make sense of what one experiences. p.s. - this coincidentally is what is behind all the "UFO's" nonsense. People having been inundated with narratives about UFOs/aliens via our largely entertainment-based culture - hence _"priming"_ in neuroscience speak - subsequently are predisposed to associating otherwise unexplainable phenomenon as the same. Hollywood "planted the seed" in our imagination and confirmation bias sometimes takes over to lead these individuals to such conclusions. 🤷

Predatory behaviour seems to be almost as old as life itself - single-celled organisms prey on each other... This makes suspect the proposed "best guess" for brain development in this talk. At least it might indicate that the evolutionary "pressure" for brain development would then be much earlier in the evolutionary history. The teleological "why things develop" studies are very important, but have to be tested/modelled to identify if pure mechanistic structural and dynamical probabilities allow any novelty to persist - structurally and dynamically proven to be an advantage in the sense that it has higher probabilities to reproduce and persist with only beneficial random modifications - Otherwise the existence of those structures cannot be ascribed to the actual mechanisms that caused it. Are they doing those structural and dynamic probability analysis in their studies or are they just assuming higher probabilities because they observe the structure exist or existed, and they have a viable teleology or evolutionary pressure narrative? That is not a correct scientific approach and will lead to wrong conclusions about the underlying mechanisms that caused the evolution that is observed. Without that analysis, you will not be answering the question of why the probabilities are higher, because mechanistically and dynamically those probabilities might in fact be much lower from any previous ancestor in any possible environment. It will cause the same kind of failure as the lizard brain hypothesis... it is dangerous to our own understanding and how we act on our understanding.

So we evolved the brain(animals), becouse at some point one organism ate another one - and that lead to arms race between different organism to develop limbs, eyes, ears, claws etc. To be able to hunt or escape in a more efficient way than your competitor. And all the organs and limbs needed to be coordinated in an efficient way - hence the brain. This is what I understand from this video.

_"Predators"_ by definition must exhibit = _"problem-solving intelligence."_ We however are not merely predators = we are _"omnivores"_ as well. So man having access to a varied diet which supplies our bodies with a high nutritional content allows for that body to develop a higher level of functioning and subsequent cognition. As far as "the arms race". We are predatory towards other species - while some other species are predatory towards us. Thus we were forced to constantly evolve our senses and thinking so as to survive. You can see this on a "micro" level with microorganisms per _"The Red Queen Hypothesis."_ Viruses battle against bacteria - who battle against fungi over resources to sustain themselves resulting in a continual evolution of new traits amongst themselves and sometimes new species arising. An example would be Penicillin. We developed it from mold - it representing a novel enzyme developed by fungi as a way to destroy bacteria which also inhabit some "food source" they are all trying to consume. The more we are forced to use our brains towards some end = the more we subsequently learn - which can foster increased cognition and brain development as new neural pathways are formed and our brains draw more upon our "metabolic gas tank" derived from what we consume.
