Good question! The "Neanderthal neurons" are grown from human cells that are "Neanderthalized" using genetic engineering. Dr. Alysson Muotri explains the research here, relevant part starts around 7 min: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3elqaGhr65sfrc

"if they're having any time at all" - interesting way to phrase it. Reminds me of two other concepts I've read about: that animals with a smaller body size/higher metabolic rate (e.g. flies) experience time more slowly (that is, they experience "more" chunks of time, allowing them to react more quickly), and that many mammals across the size spectrum have lifespans that end up being around 1 billion heartbeats. I wonder if these could have any implications for the time perception of neurons in a dish that have no heartbeat or metabolic rate to speak of... assuming they could reach the step of perceiving time in the first place. Perhaps they would simply experience time the same way humans do because they're human neurons.

The combination of sentient mini brains and the Unreal Engine's 3D environment is mind-boggling. It's fascinating to think about the cognitive abilities and neural networks at play as these mini brains navigate the virtual world. The visuals are stunning, and I can only imagine the depth of perception they must experience. The idea of virtual societies emerging within this environment is thought-provoking, raising intriguing questions about consciousness and artificial intelligence. Kudos to the cortical labs and the creators for pushing the boundaries of cognitive exploration. This video has left me with so many questions and a newfound appreciation for the intricacies of our own minds. Can't wait to see more mind-expanding content like this! Keep up the great work!

I think this is why it's good to keep the ideas of sentience and sapience separate. Imo, sentience just means 'capable of sensing and responding', and has nothing to do with consciousness. So by that definition practically all life and many robots we have today are sentient. Sapience is the far more difficult to define, and I would say that true sapience requires some degree of free will.

@@billymonday8388 I'm not really sure about that. AI programs are rewarded or not rewarded all the time. It's not like a reward and that it feels good or that it makes you happy it's reward and that by changing a value or giving it a certain kind of stimulation you cause the behavior to repeat. Reward is probably not a great word to use because they don't mean it in the sense that people in their day-to-day life would use it. Unfortunately all I know about this so far is really what I've learned in this video and a couple of headlines that I've seen so I can't say this for sure but this video seemed to suggest that people are worried that the organic brain might actually experience reward as a reward in day-to-day life but it could just experience the reward in the same way that we "reward" an AI. One example of a way that you could think about a reward is that it could just be a reflex to a certain kind of stimulation or action. I think about the reflex that occurs when you're hit in your knee and your leg goes up. Or any other kind of automatic instinctual action. In other words it could just be that these neurons instinctially seek out repetitive understandable behavior so that they can survive but not with any actual intention to survive. When you look at animals and whatnot they typically try to be around things that they understand because something they don't understand is more likely to hurt them. Hell humans even have this behavior in the fear of the unknown and I'm sure all other kinds of areas. Sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes or any strange word usage I'm using speech to text because it would take me all day to write this all out.

Even single celled organism exhibit signs of sentience by adapting to novel stimuli, even stimuli that would not be found in nature and therefore not specifically evolved for. Seemingly, they do this through problem solving, often in ways that is beyond trial and error (which would be expected if there were no sentience) I think basic sentience emerges at the cellular level and the intracellular communications just organize the sentience of each individual into a hierarchy of increasing complexity, giving rise to the emergence of abilities that would not be achievable by the individual. Each cell contains the ability to store information endogenously... But, only when organized into a network, can they begin to store information exogenously. Animals(typically) are able to store information endogenously, but not exogenously through symbolisms. Humans gained the ability to store information exogenously through complex symbolism, and therefore we were able to communicate complex ideas reliably. This collectively amplifies our consciousness, and ability, to a level that would not be possible otherwise. Neurons increase their sentience collectively in the exact same manner. While each individual neuron is sentient to some extent, the collective sharing of exogenous information gives rise to a higher consciousness. The mushrooms tell me that this is true. As within, so without.

i think the simplest answer is that concepts like "sentience" and "life" don't really have any definite meanings. there isn't any law of the universe that makes some things conscious and others not, if you look deep enough into any living being, we're all made of the same fundamental particles that everything else in the universe it. there's nothing differentiating living, breathing beings from other matter; it's not like there's any way to quantify consciousness. is artificial intelligence sentient? are cells sentient? are cities and countries sentient? i think the true answer is that sentience itself is just a concept made up by our brains, and as such, there are no real borders between what is and isn't alive, and trying to find that line is a fruitless task. i think that instead of trying to simply categorize things as either "conscious" or "not conscious", we should look at it as a large spectrum where some things are more conscious/aware of their surroundings than others. thats just my perspective, though. im not like a philosopher or a scientist or anything like that, so im not an expert on this subject, but this is just what makes the most sense to me.

Good video, really interesting imo. It almost seems like maybe neurons have evolved in a way where their reward mechanism is to detect new patterns and adapt to seeking that out again next time. It's a very simple idea but seems like it could be at the root of much of intelligence as we know it. I'm reminded of the neural nets that were improved significantly in navigating maze like games by introducing a curiosity reward function - they were rewarded for seeking out novel stimulation (in the form of frames/images of the game not seen before) and therefore they developed a kind of memory since the areas they had been to before would be less reward than going to new areas. One fly in the ointment there was that when a TV showing random images was introduced to one of the walls in the maze, the AI got completely stuck on watching the TV because it was always showing new images, so it stopped exploring the maze altogether (which really has a lot of real world implications for people IRL being distracted by movies/games/TV tbh lol).

It has a hunger level between 0 and 100, (100 is full stomach), and each moment the magnitude of the pain is equal to some constant k*(100-hungerLevel). This dull pain will help the the agent to learn faster compared to a sudden shock of pain at 0 hungerLevel. In A.I. literature this is called dense rewards and sparse rewards.

neuroscientist that works with these types of neurons here. i sometimes wonder about this very question when im doing my experiments, but i think the anthropomorphizing assumptions in this vid are a bit too much. there is a learning mechanism that is part of how neurons work and how we learn called homeostatic plasticity that goes with the phrase "cells that fire together, wire together". basically, the more neurons get activated by each other, the stronger that path gets, and the more they will fire together in the future. this is thought to be the biological mechanism by which we learn / how behaviors get engrained. that's probably what's causing this learning phenomenon from the synchronized bursts. it doesn't feel quite right to call that "liking predictability", but it certainly does make you question what consciousness even is. is it just a by product of these cells happening to follow this fire together, wire together rule? really thought provoking stuff, thanks for your video! i will add though that artificial intelligence is definitely going to outpace our research in biological intelligence. biology is slow af, AI research is going basically exponentially rn.

Like all things, experience exists on a spectrum. You cannot perceive the mind of something else, you cannot feel exactly how someone else feels. It's alive, and it wants to live, regardless of what it can or cannot comprehend. It does not have organs, or ideas, or anything else. But it is alive. We are not any different from a cell, A cell wants to live, a cell wants to reproduce, consume, grow, just like us. A neural network is a system of cells communicating.

It sounds like sapience is an emergent behavior of sentience. If the synthetic brain was given the ability to define its own goals - or the ability to 'play' with it's senses - would that open the door to creativity? Is the ability to create their own patterns at will enough to be considered sapient?
@DefineMeAsOne

It does makes sense why it wants patterns. Patterns allow the system to adapt and reduce the energy expenditure of neuronal cells. This happens in humans all the time. It takes more effort to learn new things because a pattern hasn't been created yet. Once a pattern is created it becomes easier to do the required task.

My greatest concern regarding these technologies is the risk of people devaluing life after it gets packaged into an everyday appliance or some other soulless product. When you become surrounded by things used as tools for everyday tasks: you associate their value with the tasks or products they are involved in. So what will happen when life is turned into a product? Eventually life may become so devalued that rights and dignity no longer mean anything.

I guess the important question is, if we can grow a brain that learns. How big can we grow it, how correlated is size of the brain to intelligence. Are the neurons in the dish brain as dense as ours? Is super intelligence just having a brain like this the size of a room? I don't know much and I feel like I need to know more.

It's on a much more simple level than a human brain but you can essentially wire it up to something as simple as pong and it learns to play it through electrical pulses.
