- How does the human brain work and how is it different from computers? If you think this is too complex to explain in a few minutes, you will be surprised. In this energetic and insightful talk, neuro-scientist Dr. Henning Beck gives insights into thought processes and tells you how you can create new ideas.
Dr. Henning Beck, neuroscientist and author, supports businesses to use brain-based approaches in order to develop innovative and efficient workflows. He studied biochemistry in Tübingen from 2003 to 2008. After his diploma thesis, he started his research at the Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research and intensified his work at the Institute of Physiological Chemistry at the University of Ulm. Supported by a PhD scholarship granted by the Hertie Foundation he did his doctorate at the Graduate School of Cellular & Molecular Neuroscience in Tübingen. He expanded his scientific expertise by an International Diploma in Project Management at the University of California, Berkeley in 2013. Until 2014, he worked for start-ups in the San Francisco Bay Area to develop creative workspace designs and advanced communication styles based on neuroscientific principles.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
I have been a Software Engineer for 20+ years, in fact I worked in predictive analytics (Deep Learning) for a decade. He is actually right about deep diving into a problem and solution and then walking away to receive inspiration automatically from your mind. This is a common practice for Engineers during design and functional requirements phase of developing an innovative solution.
Yes!
In the video example ot sitting on chair and different chair types, can't a person program a code in deep learning expressing the process of sitting and afterwards simply apply it to different objects ?
@@Brightnight123 i also think like that , he said that we understand chair is something that we can sit on ,now if computer also get programmed like that they will also produce the same output as you , the difference between us computer is something else , our system is way more complex because our input is 5 senses plus the vivid memory while processor (intellect ) is likely the same . but then we are probably way more than that which we don't understand and will never may be like the memory where do it come from and probably the consciousness that we are aware of things. we are way more than intellect to be precise.
after that he goes on to show that forest and family example on board which again is slightly misleading because the input here is not just the figure on the board but his voice as well and our past memory and our already formed neural network. so there is so much more that just the diagram he is considering as input which currently is not replicable.

One of my favorite TED talks so far. Great metaphors.
Yep really really 🤩

I literally clapped after the video ended. This video must be available to every human being.
“The highest activity a human being can attain is LEARNING for UNDERSTANDING, because to understand is to be free.”
― Baruch Spinoza

Highest is to be and not understand, the universe......Universe

Baruch, Ha-Shem ....Adonai...✡
Understanding does not equate to freedom. When we learn for the sake of understanding, we realize that understanding itself has no finality. That is to say, learning is perpetual learning -- nothing else. Understanding is not some distinct state from the process of learning. We use models to understand phases in the process.
We don't just learn, we understand and change the way we process information. Im taking that with me.
Me too.
Me two.
Everett Ward and isn’t that what Einstein was about too Understanding on a fundamental level I just wish All Drug Laws we’re abolished we would see wonderful creativity without oppression
Genius.
I'm taking the pressure that has on me.
This is what my mind does automatically. It’s like a pattern recognition machine that finds sees how everything relates and synthesizes it all to produce the big picture. Knowledge and understanding comes out of silence. Keeping Quiet.
Brilliant representation skills,, i am totally captured by his way of expressing things . 👏
Yeah. Same here 😊
👧 I bet 🤷♂️
I don't think so. He is a bit self conscious and trying too hard.
@@NightRider0101 He's nervous, annoying, not funny. If a guy like this tried to sell you something, you would feel uneasy. The more he tries to de-emphasize his accent, the more it comes out. But it's not from accent reduction training, because I teach it. He's just being too forceful in delivery.
agreed
That was genuinely one of the best TED Talks I've ever watched. Thank you for that :)
Well, I have watched couple of TED talks if not many. This guy captured my attention so fast that 18 mints just went by. Amazing skills and new ideas. Bravo Dr.

So fascinating and inspiring. I’m studying deep learning and brain, but being too familiar with how machine learning works makes me feel like that’s the way intelligence works as well, which is a great underestimation of our thought.
The advice of relax, getting brain processing and generating ideas, making new connections, and constantly challenge our belief is very helpful.
Really, do not think and work like an machine!
@Sky Gardener machines cant love
@@talkingtutor9753 They can love just themselves, just like the capitalists (addicted machines ;)
I just saw this talk in the sidebar and did something I usually don't do.... I opened it and dedicated the time to watch and listen. It was Perfect for what I needed to hear now..... and excellent reference points that I will refer to again and again. Wonderful TED Talk.
Woow This guy is truly amazing. The way he put the perspective into words is so amazing. Great ted talk
Excellent lecture. I have been researching the mind and the brain lately and it just becomes more and more fascinating. You have added a wonderful way to think about all the other things I am learning at age 72. Never too old to learn. I also was impressed with your last name. :) MIKE BECK
I sometimes feel that we humans are in a race to try and understand our brains well enough to save us from ourselves before using those very brains to destroy ourselves.
Which is a great way to use a brain.
There are always two ways of approaching a problem, with two mindsets, one being quality, the other being quantity. We should show everyone both quality and quantity, before they are given a choice to choose. One way of showing people which one is better than the other, is through something called consequences.

Who is trying to understand is the brain itself .. there is no you trying to understand anything.. :)
Never seen a more informative video with such beautiful explanation. I understood the whole topic effortlessly. Thanks
Wow, the speaker looks so young, yet such brilliance...!
Complex concepts explained with such simplicity... Amazing! 👏👏👏
Age is not proportional to knowledge
@@202aaaaaa the brain stops developing at 25, so there's some truth to the age-knowledge thing
Is he or the talk better?

WE ARE THOUGHT
I find this a brilliant TED talk. Such great examples to explain what you were saying and very interesting thought provoking thoughts you had. You're a great speaker too.
You have no idea how much interesting it is!!!
Thank you sooooo much!!!
Dear Henning, That's 100% true and really amazing to hear. Thank you for this gap filling lecture.
Great talk! I would love to hear more about the specific learning from mistakes and adjustments of neural networks aka "backtracking" which is said to involve electrical synapses. Hope to see more of you in the future!

One of the best presentations. Just beautiful.
Loved each and every word of the talk. Thanks Beck!!
This is a subject I'm extremely familiar with and experienced in. So I like listening to it explained by others.
The way Dr Beck presented the concept is very remarkable
The best ted talks video I've ever watched so far💥cheers for humans
What a nice comparison between brains & computers, Analysis & Understanding, Algorithmic processing & Innovating...... Youngman you deserve salute for mind capturing presentation. Great.
Thank you for taking time and putting so much efforts to make us more aware of ourselves!❤❤🙏🙏

This must be THE best explanation of what makes being a human more superior than computers and why we should love our abilities and not be fearful of rejection or trying new things. Thank you 🌅 definitely going to share. So algorithms stiffle creativity, seeing things from a different perspective ignites it!

Amazing illustration for the thought as a pattern of multi neuronal activity
Thanks a lot 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Fantastic Talk! I’ve enjoyed a lot watching this talk. It has reminded me D. Hofstadter's Book "Surfaces and Essences" in which he defines Intelligence as the ability to get the point, the essence of any situation or reality. This would be at the heart of our ability to make "Analogies" (That book's second title being "Analogy as the Fuel and Fire of Thinking")
Wonderful speech. Love to hear it again and again.The speeker is too good. Each and every word he delivered is very clear . super.
Thanks a lot for such a fantastic presentation revealing how humans need to get back to the practice which is natural, required and need of the hour. I strongly agree that we must stop focussing and running after only and only intelligence.

This was the video i was searching for! 🌳🔥
this guy is truly amazing .He just gave me an answer i was searching for a while and specially in a manner that''s very understandable and not require anymore work, now i'll just have to break that filter bubble and get flooded with new ideas.

Education through these lectures.
Thank you.
Mind blowing...crucial to move beyond industrial age machine style thinking
One of the bests talks i have ever heard
This talk made me understand! It added a new pattern of understanding for IT challenges. I'm making customers understand the meaning of context for more them 20 years. Your explaining made it simple to understand for everyone who is willing to understand.
This has become so relevant in the last year. And honestly, the points they're making hold solid.
The greatest ideas and innovation coming to thinking like differently
What an amazing talk. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Very insightful. Bravo!!
What a great speech ! . No words to say and what a great message.
Brilliant, a clear example of just how creative the human mind can be!

Two great examples 1. Music and 2. Flower and child. its a great presentation
This is so clear. I've always wonder what leads to a thought. Now the craziest part is the curiosity within humans would made us lead to this? Love this so much. It really made me Cleary up my mind.
This offered so much more insight than I expected. Much appreciated!
I've no word to praise and express my gratitude to you......it was life time favourite Ted Talks..

Love it.. Much love & gratitude for sharing.. God bless..
The best Ted Talk I've seen in a while. Not sure why it took so long to come up on my list.
I was so afraid of not finding this talk again, I saved it, I liked it, I even took ss! I have listened loads of Ted talks so far, but I found this one outstanding, exactly what I was looking for unconsciously! Thanks a lot! I'm pretty sure this will be one of the sources I will lean on. Especially "animals learn, we understand. One can unlearn, but can't ununderstand". I'm about to change my career and the sphere is completely different to what I have done for 22 years and what I actually am. I decided to go with IT because it was challenging for me, because I had never done anything connected with computers. Oh there are thunders and lightnings right now in my brain!
Nice to hear! Wish u good luck!
Amazing talk, thank you for your wonderful post
It's disappointing that this great video has less views.
An absolute stand up presentation👏
you start up my mind this morning thanks my boss
This is truly a very good 18 minutes I spent. It is something that sparked me an idea and confirmation of the things I am trying to build. Thank you.

that's such a great presentation and also easy way to explain quite hard theory for me. the point about how human's mistake is the perfection itself about human because we can learn and think about the alternatives is mindblowing.
This is the best presentation I have seen in my life!
लई भारी... I am amazed by contents and presentation skills.. thanks for the knowledge...
What a lecture it is. Thank U so much sir.
More than imperfection the ultimate edge is true curiosity.
Thank you very much for such a wonderful Talk.
Very informative Ted talk so far 👏👏👏👏
This is brilliant. Well done! Great presentation, so helpful!
Such a new perspective to the concept of thinking and how its different from machine learning
Brilliant! Hard to believe this wasn't viewed tens of millions of time, 6 years later. Bro, not only did you made a scientific talk understandable to non-scientific, but you do what you say doin so!
That's a 5 Stars Talk & +. Thanks!

@@jeffforsythe9514 Then you would agree, that certain animals if not all, as well as insects and perhaps other living entities, all of them have a soul.
We all know primates, land and sea mammals, spyders, ants, bees, and more; are capable of resolving problems and taking decisions that require some type of thinking, planning and orderly execution. In your own words: "their soul is the pilot" . . . . . . . . . . . . .Zhen-Shan-Ren Hao

10:39 - The core point taken from this talk is to understand the difference between understanding and learning. Once you learn something there is a chance that you can 'unlearn' it later and change it but once you understand something you can't de-understood it. we understand very fast on the spot, we don' t need to do the processing. So deep learning is good but deep understanding is better.
that was genuinely an amazing speech, thanks !!
One of the best Ted talks
Just Amazing. I totally agree. Maybe it's just the way beginning of creating the Real AI instead of more computational power etc. Understand, Challenge and Thinking. Simply Superb. 👍☺️

Great video, I have ever watched, this feeling is also comming from my human brain which computer cannot identify yet

good ted talk bwt

My favorite video of TED TALK
What a wholesome TED talk.We are slower, irrational and imperfect. We understand instead of analysing.We should be proud of this as it makes us human. It differentiates us from the computer which runs by an algorithm, error free, efficient and quick. Proud Humans give this a thumbs up!

Interesting. Perhaps we might say 'Knowledge is the what things are, Understanding is the why things are' ? And there are levels of that
Brilliant! Finally something that actually makes sense instead of mere statements.

Nuevas ideas creativas me llegan en ese estado de soñar y estar casi despierto simultáneamente. Después de leer o platicar de algo totalmente fuera de cualquier experiencia previa. Por ejemplo leo simultáneamente 5 o 6 libros de temas diversos. Y los dejo que aniden en mi mente y a los pocos días se van recombinado y vienen a mi consciencia pláticas con ideas totalmente diferentes que van creando, nuevos diálogos que me sorprenden porque no estaban ahí. Es como descubrir un nuevo universo o algo muy raro verdaderas aventuras de la mente
In my opinion consciousness is physical understandable by memories + the functional areas of our bodies, so what makes us different from everyone else (including twins) is going to be everyone's personal memories. Every part of the Central nervous system (in the same way as the rest as the body does) has its specific functions. An amazing property of the brain is the neuroplasticity, the fact that when we think it reacts changing the "highways"= dendrites between neurons. The limbic system (the emotional center) plus the frontal cortex (the brain's area for reasoning) interact constantly (in processing the inputs coming from the sensory and the motor areas) and they "work producing the memories". Memories are thought to be created in the hippocampus (located in the limbic system) and during sleep stored back to the cortex in form of consistent long-term memories. There are several types of "memories", like when we learn cycling or doing some movement, the "central processor" of the motor is the Cerebellum and it's believed it also stores these kind of memories, but I'm specifically referring to the memories that makes us who we are.
Consciousness is the process of creating multiple feedback loops to create your model in space with respect to others and in time to satisfy certain goals(malikaaqib09.blogspot.com)
Very inspiring and useful content,
It gives an completely different and important view on life and intelligence...💯🔥🔥
