Thank you, Brian, for hosting this interesting discussions on brain research, you are a smart brain, look forward to your next show.

The work that Edward Chang is doing is extremely interesting.

Our brains are a quantum entangled neural network. The neuron is a complex standalone processor, a functional node in a neural network. Individually we only control a single neuron (node) which ties into our entire nervous system. We all exist inside of each other's neural network otherwise we couldn't share an experience. Atomic nuclei are binary switches with a twist. An atom consists of one or more of these simple binary switches fused together to produce the binary equivalent of a byte. The 0s and 1s in binary represent OFF or ON, respectively. In a transistor, a "0" represents no flow of electricity, and "1" represents electricity being allowed to flow. In this way, numbers are represented physically inside the computing device, permitting calculations. Atoms are built from quarks, two up quarks and one down quark produce a proton. Two down quarks and one up quark produce a neutron, they are interchangeable. A neutron is unstable outside of the nucleus of the atom and will decay into a proton. Protons are stable outside of the nucleus. Neutron "0" represents no flow of electricity. Proton "1" represents electricity being able to flow. The carbon atom for example represents 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons. That makes up the nucleus of the carbon atom, so it represents a 12 bit byte. Each proton and neutron represent a single binary digit. A single carbon atom representing 666, is a 12 bit byte. If you account for particle spin you realize that these 12 bit bytes of carbon can be arranged in various nuclei alignments, to represent any combination possible within that 12 bit byte. This is just a single carbon atom. 12 binary digits, or 3 nibbles (a 'tribble'), have 4096 (10000 octal, 1000 hexadecimal) distinct combinations. Hence, a microprocessor with 12-bit memory addresses can directly access 4096 words (4 Kw) of word-addressable memory. The average human cell contains roughly 100 trillion atoms and each atomic nucleus contains 1 or more simple switches. Each neuron of our brain is a sophisticated standalone processor connected to 85-90 billion other stand alone processors. Producing a very powerful processing architecture. If you can physically experience and perceive it.. consciously, you are connected to it neurologically. Our brain is a neural network of quantum entangled nodes (neurons). We only control our own individual node and the nervous system it represents. If the neurological network didn't exist, we wouldn't consciously be able to share an experience. There are only 7.9 billion other humans on earth, our neurological network consists of 85 to 90 billion neurons. For you to read what I have typed on this page right here. I must exist inside of your neurology as a node on your network, otherwise you couldn't make a neurological connection to experience what I have typed. You also have to exist as a node on my neurological network in order for me to broadcast this message to you on this binary representation of our consciously entangled manifestation. When you meet a node on the network, inside of the projected universe, your neurons connect internally through branched connections and this allows both neurons to exchange information subconsciously. If you get a good or bad vibe from someone, trust that the subconscious didn't like what it saw upon forging a neurological connection. Mine and your neurons exist inside of both of our brains but require us to interact inside the projected universe before these neurons will forge a branch connection to one another. We are all connected subconsciously, neurologically. When we meet in this projected universe, the neuron that represents me and the neuron that represents you in both of our brains will create branch connections to each other where it can project our individual but shared experience to us. We are all a projection of self. Self is not unique to the individual, the individual is unique to self. SELF is the operating system driving our individual consciousness. We are all just a duality of self.

Wow this conference covered how persons who have had cerebral vascular accidents could recuperate with pulsating or illuminating devices that sends stimuli to the brain. Like scientist Yuri said, we respond to stimuli and we react to people's and environment stimuli but the sub conscious take part in this also (in very ample way) with the mix of retrieval of memories to respond for example in certain repetitive family feud abuses. To bother or bully is morally and ethically wrong but if the persons constantly bring over and over the same issues, they are harrasing and creating trouble and the person needs to retrieve the reasons why they are repeating the harrasing to finish dealing with them. Consciousness and the sub conscious are very vast. Some philosophies say consciousness exists outside of us, as in front of our bodies, in front of our head as a source of our living halo. According to Buddhism and Hinduism, consciousness is lodged over the heart chakra centre. They say the mind is over our diaphragm, over the heart energy chakra centre and is called the Anahata chakra. In Buddhist philosophy the mind resides in the area over the heart where the Hum sound is invoked and Hum means essence, what we consider essential (as survival instinct) in our thinking feeling hearts. Just a comment, I wish to be completely free to study, work and develop myself fully and have a happy loving relationship. I never have consented to be part of an experiment unknowingly. If something was implanted in me without my consent is totally wrong. I understand the devices they explained to wake up people suffering from strokes or heavy depression are great discoveries. I personally had a pin implanted in one of my tooths but it turned out to be a device. The tooth was taken out recently but still it bothers me because I feel some pieces of it are still close to my cheek bone and it causes me headaches. I need to take it out. I think I was implanted a device not a pin without my consent and knowledge as they say it would only hold my tooth and is despicable. I truly wish the people who knew the range of utility of this "pin" to know that this has caused me pain in my tooth, cheek bone and head are cold insensitive bastards and don't deserve to be called doctors or scientists.

Wow! Discoveries that had been shared are fascinating indeed!

Great. These sorts of talks are awesome.

The brain is the only organ to name itself

Fascinating and intellectually stimulating / satisfying discourse. Study of consciousness goes beyond Physical World and unless and until the self is separated from the thoughts within the realms of mind (which are a direct result of numerous neurological events) the consciousness can't be experienced. That's one explanation, and we should be open to other ideas that could possibly give a better interpretation. The person who has no memory is still conscious and alive except that his brain neurons don't send right signals to the right spot to re-ignite that memory sphere or re-cap the memory map, but that must be happening nevertheless. As per Indian philosophy, I believe, the consciousness is one throughout all humans and other living things on Earth and elsewhere and everyone's consciousness is loosely connected and therefore helps (though unequally ...depends on memory storage of individual brain and the memory recall efficiencies) in recognising each other and identifying the similar things in similar manner within the brain. There is also a school of thought that says this consciousness is further stated to be a part of larger consciousness. But that takes us to the realms of philosophy and it is best left to individuals to believe or not.

Despite all our materialist scientific progress, we're only just beginning to scratch the surface in our understanding of the brain, it's purpose and how it works. There isn't even a consensus or agreement on the definition and purpose of the brain. Then, there's the unanswered and more complex & immaterial nature of the"Mind" and finally the holy grail, the ultimate question ... the big "C" .. "consciousness". Thanks Brian, 🙏

@@Onestringpuppet this would imply a significant difference between human and animal brains. I posit that the results would be the same no matter the brain type observing the interaction. Otherwise If humans are the only creatures that can affect reality in this way it would be defining sentience with a real test and a true measurable outcome. And what does this mean for the cameras we made? Do they possess our sentience? I suggest that anything with a brain can observe the collapsed form and see two bands of electrons but does a camera have a brain? I suggest the actual answer lies in the connection between our mind and the electric and chemical signals that arise in the brain and the way those actual particles of matter affect the quantum level of matter and entangle themselves with the cameras particles, leaving an impression that is then directed at the particles afterwards, or directly entangling with their presence while they observe first hand. But also there's the chance that some humans don't observe the function to have collapsed. We don't know what the true cause is. It could be a bacteria found in humans and on our stuff, or something about brain cells and their ability to organize electric signals is able to extend beyond the body it is in. We need more testing.

In my view, the unconscious patterns underlying human intelligent actions such as articulating or speaking described by Edward should be the similar mechanisms of representative learning as the deep-learning, while the consciousness is based on the reinforcement-learning alike action-evaluate-reward loop, described by Gyorgy as inside-out mechanisms.

I strongly believe computer is more than just the metaphor of brain, and the Ai machines will definitely have consciousness emerged someday, as mentioned by professor Buzsaki, if they got chance to communicate with each other as a million-sized community.

@@waterproof4403 Thank you for asking. Before BigBang, nothing is there including time. That's to say, no substance, no mind before the BigBang and everything is meaningless then.

This inspires me a lot

We just finished reading your astounding book until the end of time ... we love it all the way BUTTTT in regards to the new human form the evolved version we disagree because we believe it will be a combination of both Physics and Biology not pure physics as you mentioned

Physics explains biology and chemistry. It is the principle field that governs all the sciences so it is actually more accurate and concise. You can obviously disagree but it would be wrong. You can derive all chemistry and biology though physics. You can also derive biology through chemistry as biology is the 3rd hierarchical scientific principle. Just so I don’t sound like a facetious I see why you would of said it but couldn’t resist correcting it sorry. Peace and love ❤️

That was a good chat. I hate to say it, but I prefer this style to the live panel discussions in a theater with an audience. The editing here is tight, useful, and focused.

This started playing when I was dreaming and after people started talking about the brain and neuroscience and motivation, everyone who had been gathered nearby started walking away but I stayed to listen.

e brain was aurious organ it was a master ofulti-tasking and a wonder in te world of neuience. It conrolled every aspect of aperson's life, from memories to movement, and every thought in betweenThe complexity of its inner workings was breathtaking, and yet, it remained a mystery as to how it operated. Thebrain captivated the world's leading scentists, and they invesed their lives in studying and dephring its mysteries. It was a marvel of the huma body, a creationthat never ceased to amaze, and yet it remained one of the most fascinating and misundersod orans of alltime.
