  • In this episode I visit a researcher who is studying memory by using machine learning and neuroimaging to detect and predict people's brain states. I also travel to Japan to meet with a team working on ways to record the content of peoples’ dreams.

      First thing I thought of. There are super talented people that lack social skills we'd consider to be basic but in exchange excel at other abilities one could consider to be on super-human level, like the autistic artist Stephen Wiltshire reconstructing an entire city just by flying over it once. How would the results look for them, especially if the neural network would gather more than 2 hours of training data from them? What would the "best end result" look like?

    I love that Michael got so excited by the "blob" on a screen because he sees the bigger picture. He sees this as something groundbreaking but in its infancy, instead of just a blob.
    All great scientific breakthroughs probably started with very minor results that grew into something that has changed the world.
    Seeing him like a kid in a candy store is actually really inspiring.

Like he asks why we can't say bad words (even though we fucking can), but doesn't actually do any research into it. Bad words are bad because humans need a way to emphasize the extreme connotations of a meaning where less harsh words wont suffice. I dont want to explain the whole thing here, but Vsauce explained it really well on an older video of his.

      I would be as interested to see what they get when someone with aphantasia goes in.

      Calen Hoover It could also be that there’s part of your inner conscious experience that isn’t detectable in this way. It’s cool but let’s be honest this isn’t cut and dry yet.

      Ah @@ravencrovax, Sam. I came down here for comments like these that explore the study design. I immediately wondered about people with face-blindness (prosopagnosia is a subset of aphantasia). It would be useful to see how the results compare across these photo-blind and photographic extremes. And whether the gist attributes that fire, when thinking of an object/face, are still monitorable, regardless of whether the visual cortex is firing more or not at all. I mean... it's not like aphantasics lack object knowledge.

    I paid for two months of Premium to watch this not realizing it's now free! 😅
    Anyway, thanks Michael for such a great series!
    (Also if any y'all could recommend good series on Premium before it ends :P)
