- Brains are the fleshy masses of nerve cells and supporting systems in our skulls. All animals have brains of one kind or another. So what are brains?

"Well the brain is an amazing object.." says the brain
no, brain can't speak. I think any 5+ year old knows that.

@@user-ol2gx6of4g It's the brain that speaks. Without brain's instruction , you can't even move your lips 👶.
And no 5 yrs. old kid knows that 😀
what an amazing mind
RIP Marvin Minsky :(
Don't worry, he will come back soon. He sleeps at Alcor.
Wikipedia lists him as dying two days before this video was released. Eerie.
I have to strongly disagree, child molestation is disgusting and he should suffer in hell and know that Satan is not his ally.
Marvin Minsky - thank you!
There seems to be a problem with the playback volume on this upload. With my computer and the playback window volume controls both turned up to max, it's barely a whisper.
Minsky must have been an Italian in a past life. Wonderful expositor.
1:30 when he starts explaining how evolution could potentially bottleneck... well evolution; that's really a remarkable insight, i've never realized that something as fundamental as a neuron, once formed and used effectively, would have a very limited mutation compatibility because other systems require it to work a certain way.
Brain is alive n Conscious 😇
That is interesting. Though arguably Nature has overcome such 'bottlenecks' before, like the limitations of cramming larger human brains into smaller primate size skulls. So Nature reverted to 'Neoteny', and instead borrowed the 'design' of primates at the infant stage, which allows greater skull-to-body-size ratios. And explains why adult humans more closely resemble the infants of gorillas and chimpanzees than the adults.
This was thoroughly enjoyable to watch, thank you
Bunson Baker! Hello I hope you get this message!
I like Minsky's hand gestures when he talked
Mind Blown Again
Interesting perspective, levels of abstraction and organization.
13:27 A moment of revelation for the interviewer!
love it!!
One day you will want to conduct an interview with me!
I like how animated his hands are.
Brains on Brains is really good for Brains
Beautiful mind.
That knew Mr. Epstein, that had little girls working for him.
If this guy where a wizard, his spell casting would be destructive. This guy speaks with his hands as he does his mouth. Nothing wrong with it i just noticed hes very visual and express alot with his hands.
If there is such a thing as a soul, then the conscious mind, instincts, emotions, behaviors and sense of self don't seem to be part of it. Those arise from the brain. Idk what's left.
Twirlip Of The Mists Consciousness IS the soul. And we would be nothing but lumpy matter and robots.
After listening to all these genius' interviews, I have come to the conclusion that Robert Kuhns is a very, very smart man.
yeah and humble
Some of our cells are bones teeth skin liver nails marrow and some is brain and nerves, evolution chose only the brain cells (and nerves) to be brains because these cells have the capacity of sense pro actively and reactive, the intresting thing is that what makes these brain cells sense and think and not other cells
But as Marvin would say: "Everything I just said is a lie."
how thoughts stores in brain ?
I respect his enthusiasm and genius. But there are clearly so many holes in this cluster of imaginary processes formed into a theory that has never been proven. So many questions that are left unanswered and explained away. Still a very interesting video and person
Exactly most things he says are contradicting honestly some things they are geniuses but also that can a flaw he can’t prove that’s how we were made, or that’s how evolution was. This is all assumptions and theories in all honestly just like he doesn’t believe in God he said before “we’re in a simulation” or something like that. So he also says “if there’s a God who created God” ok that SAME QUESTION goes for his theory if we’re in a simulation, WHO MADE THE SIMULATION. Also if this is a simulation wouldn’t there be an explanation as of how we were made whatever you wanna call our “evolution”?? It doesn’t make sense if we evolved from nature how is it a simulation? That makes 0 sense.
ohh Marvin, you came up with Pavlov 1930', please watch a little bit Hameroff-Penrose about the brain, ohh old man
No one actually knows this is what happened.
This guy is nutbar 3000.
A 'brain' there is no such thing as 'The' brain.... a brain [singular] is a physical memory of function and experience, thinking has nothing to do with 'a' brain. Meta-physical memory of function and experience is not physical ..The link is memory...
Why don't we ask God
Animals are not my ancestors.
There is zero proof of any of this.
Exactly! People talk about listening to the science but all they do is listen to the scientists (who among the highest ranks have been compromised)
They're childish and a waste of potential if they deny the existence of God.
