A new way to interact with technology

he is always so charming

Why does the chapter title for 13:10 say "Cancer Experiment"? Cancer is not mentioned at all. I think it should be "Liquid Tensor Experiment".

If a human does convert a continuous high dimensional action space (movement through space, in tiniest possible motions, and any possible direction) into a reduced graph model of relevant decisions... How could we model and study this compression process?

I think maybe a human would think about a problem like this in terms of "clear paths" / possible vectors, and add together a set of these possible moves in abstract chunk space, and only once a full solution had been made, then break it down into steps. I think you will always limit your model if the model has to think in individual moves. Imagine the grid was 1 million x 1 million, but the pattern of walls with small gaps were the same. This should be equivalent.

Really enjoy the camaraderie of these people joining ideas together, great place to work and be happy. One alternative, I'm not sure about (since the result is a constant expression) but I guess using Transformers Architectures instead of Genetic Algorithms Is generally viable for Symbolic Regressions.

Lots of great researchers in that room! No wonder she got all those questions.

Plasticity without genetic change, as seen in bioelectric embryos and synthetic proto-organisms, reveals a fascinating layer of biological adaptability that goes beyond our traditional understanding of genetics. Bioelectricity, the natural electrical patterns generated by cells plays a crucial role in shaping an organism’s development, guiding cells on when and where to grow, differentiate, or even repair themselves. This form of control suggests that biological forms can be sculpted and restructured by manipulating electrical signals, without altering the underlying DNA. In bioelectric embryos, researchers have demonstrated that tweaking electrical gradients can induce cells to form new structures or repair damaged tissues, essentially allowing the organism to ‘rewrite’ its blueprint on the fly. Synthetic proto-organisms, meanwhile, harness this same bioelectric potential, allowing scientists to create life-like behaviors in non-genetic systems. These proto-organisms exhibit forms of movement, self-organization, and responsiveness typically attributed to living beings, all orchestrated through electrical cues rather than genetic instructions. This plasticity challenges the gene-centric view of biology, suggesting that life is not solely governed by DNA but is instead a dynamic interplay of genetic, biochemical, and bioelectric signals. It opens up a new frontier in understanding how life can be engineered, manipulated, and potentially created from scratch, where the blueprint is not just written in the language of genes but in the electric whispers that flow through cells.

What a brilliant beautiful woman!

Good content, thanks for posting!

He's still wearing his shorts and sandals. You better start your correspondence with him with the term "Dear" or else he gets a little displeased 😂😂😂

Thank you for uploading the recordings! I notice that part 1 and part 3 of this series are uploaded but not part 2. Is there a plan to upload part 2? Thank you in advance. Also a small note, the title of the first video should say "Pt. 1 of 3", not "Pt. 1 of 2".

"If you're saying I want to spend a certain time in transportation systems then maybe hours is the right argument"... The audience all laughed, but this is a legitimate point, not a joke; many trip planning decisions are made with hours as a metric. Given a fixed destination, miles is of course the right metric, but very often the destination is not fixed. If the family is deciding where to go camping this weekend, you'll probably pick somewhere within a one to three hour drive, and if you can travel faster, that mostly opens up the opportunity for longer-distance trips, rather than shorter travel times. If you're planning where to work or where to live, then you'll again draw a radius based on commute time, rather than distance. Next time you open Google Maps to check for directions, make a note of which number you pay attention to -- the trip distance, or the trip time?

It's so crazy that the brain basically has a soup of ions evolved to bubble meaningfully

I just want a genome marker reset is that to much of an ask?? Bring me some Yamanaka factors 🎉

Thanks.

Excellent talk!

Excited to watch this - thanks for the upload!

“Irreducible representations and how to find them”

14:00 "I will send you the papers" "I have read those papers... and they are in my trash bin" I admire this response to what is effectively a heckle! XD EDIT: Having watched the whole thing now, the "questions" are excessive. There is a weird arrogance to so many of them, like they actively think he's talking nonsense and they know better and they are there to point out he is wrong? They often derail his lecture, because he is polite enough to address them, which is unfortunate. The content of the lecture is fascinating! Thanks for uploading these.

Really nice introduction, it took me half year to start understanding QEC.

He won’t like it but his work lends credence to consciousness is the master. Some causal astral field designing humans? Does the field stay “conscious” when cells die?

He has a lot of entrenched thinking to rewire. His work might explain miraculous healings. Need the correct morphogenetic field to push our organic goo into doing want we want

Great talk Tamara, you wrap them up very nicely.

I know you’re uso Calvin Campbell

how does laplacian method compare to computing the metric from the extrinsic curve length J^TJ?

When you explained the mystery of how Neural Networks generalize so well I really wanted to know the answer.

Brilliant and straightforward. Anybody know how he computed the standard deviation of the cash flows generating the IRR of 11.9? In his article published in 2021, he estimated the annualized standard deviation at 423.5% but I couldn't compute it based on the collection of cash flows he mentionned 😔 Any clue?

Awesome introduction, thanks!

I find this presentation very helpful. Thank you for publishing it!

Thought micheal jordan was bkack.

I was there at that lecture, it was very interesting.

Such a good talk, but the time constrain was suck. Wish he had had more time to present his work
