Learning about Neuralink w/ James Douma (ChatGPT x Neuralink)

[@samgray7074]

The breadth of knowledge that James has is nothing short of astounding! I know you already know this, but he is such a gift to absolutely anyone who has him on their show to talk about artificial intelligence.

[@fredbloggs5902]

The books referenced at 22:48 are by Iain M. Banks, the ‘Culture’ series.

[@nowsc]

… What a pleasure it is to listen to James Dauma talk. Just goes to show that even really smart and eloquent people can sometimes get phenomena/phenomenon wrong :-)

[@jalajakshikopparthi3634]

Useful information.Thank you neurapod.Stil we need more information in the spinal injury patients

[@carolhollier1279]

James is so interesting to listen to. I really enjoy his input. He makes everything so clear. What an impressive person.

[@NeuraPod]

Agreed. Thank you for listening

[@K3andK4]

Millions of people should be hearing this, not just 7,000

[@PlushGrenade]

I think the books he tries to recall around 23:00 are Iain M.Banks' Culture series books. Referring to the neural lace idea in those books.

[@Pikminiman]

You and Dave are the best James conversationalists.

[@Hechts]

I feel the complete opposite. Both Dave and Ryan sorta listen to the response to their questions, but they don't followup, there's no digestion of response and counter response. It's actually just a one way conversation. The interest in these videos, IMO, is solely the interest in James Douma's ability to explain extremely hard concepts in laymans terms. He's a master at it.

[@williamhoward7121]

Excellent interview really enjoyed this thank you!

[@Tinman_56]

James knowledge just blows me away ! Great talk guys!

[@SeattleFSD]

So excited. Been waiting for this interview. Thanks both!! 🙏

[@dylanringwood8817]

Really loving these interviews.

[@1ron0xide]

This guy is like someone you'd meet at Burning Man and never see or hear of ever again.

[@timhomstad]

The funniest and most accurate statement ever. 😂

[@alberttakaruza5612]

Hahahaha true

[@ApteraEV2024]

...why??

[@RishiGangoly]

Really enjoying this conversation Will be watching all of them for sure.

[@fluffyduckbutt24]

I could listen to James talk about this forever!!

[@Emmz_808]

James please make a KZbin channel of your own! You are a great value to the Tesla Community and I know I would subscribe. Great conversation love your content Ryan

[@garethbaus5471]

I am just imagining a chatbot wired into my brain for a near constant conversation with a relatively capable partner would be an amazing form of intellectual stimulation.

[@cybergigafactory]

I can’t stop listening to this genius 😅 love your thinking and great explanations James. ❤ Especially the size of the telephone poll to the Leads of the bush and the nanotubes as little phone wires that come out of the poll 👍 Forst time I can imagine a little bit how nanoscale works 😅

[@ax_xoffical]

JAMES IS SOOOO AMAZINGLY INTELLIGENT THATS ITS HARD NOT TO RESIST 🥴🤭

[@franklangrell5824]

Will have our "heads in the cloud"

[@Joxus]

So deep. I love this guy!

[@40watt_club]

TY, the both of you is a rare breed :-) TY for sharing. Hugs from Vienne/Autriche

[@sa5cha63]

At the end we have to ask us what might happen if everyone will be granted deep mind wisdom without limits. A BCI acts like an indestructible bridge to information , even isolation will keep you connected. It’s the last technology we need to invent. Together with AI we would surpass the the step of building an AGI , and created a Human and Machine General AI environment.

[@kenjagoo]

Hi I'm Jason From the Caribbean Listening on understanding The fundamental And knowledge that I am receiving from this video Gives me hopeTo be part of This augmentation New Lincoln plant to in a feast with computers on my skills as a mechanic learning new things on new ideas towards the future thank you guys for your time.

[@eddyer3393]

1:52:00 train to the future - rolling into the station "All aboard!" The best part of the discussion is here at The End

[@syrupgoblin4920]

Incredible. Mad respect

[@victorlindsey7485]

James' words in this video could be transcribed into a book that would be at least 10,000 words long. Like the fact that Ryan just let James go unbounded. Pretty amazing stuff. Also, admire James' ability to connect the human brain's similarity to CPUs.

[@edkalski2312]

If someone with NeuroLink pulls up an Internet page, will that page be opaque in their mind or will there be some transparency?

[@Crunch_dGH]

27:30 Re: Transdermal Communication. To avoid infection, why not close out the implant & communicate externally via low energy microwave (energized by body processes)?

[@donglam308]

Totally spooky listening to this 2 guys :D Thank you both.

[@NeuraPod]

Thanks Dong.

[@ApteraEV2024]

​@@NeuraPodwhy Spooky?😊

[@juliahello6673]

Where is James and why isn’t he on KZbin videos anymore? He’s my favorite person to listen to.

[@syrupgoblin4920]

This convo is one for the books

[@bluetoad2668]

I like James's answer to the Fermi Paradox, it's certainly more attractive than the one where we destroy ourselves with weapons of mass destruction before managing to colonise the galaxy

[@darwinboor1300]

Pretty good job on sleep paralysis and REM behavior disorder but you missed on the basis for sleep walking which is not a REM sleep system related disorder.

[@vatekehcorlon867]

My guys Latent state started geeking out at 9:30-9:57😂great content as always!

[@Martin-se3ij]

I see a river brown with silt, churning with dead leaves and a turmoil of broken branches. I'm not sure if I'm swimming in it or my life is that river but I see James Douma and I'm looking at crystal clear stream where you can see every pebble.

[@Ilkanar]

55:51 we need to make sure people who just wanna live in their way, and they dont actively need to gurt others to keep living this way, so that these people can continue doing their thing.

[@Ilkanar]

@Ben Dover I'm willing to bet if you show someone "This is exactly why you feel aggresive about this person, and neutral dude number1 knows both perspectives and thinks that" will stop more aggresive perspectives than start

[@eddyer3393]

About 1:32:00 does manufacturing in space allow, permit, enable the production of smaller more sophisticated and reliable technology? Tools for space create tools in space - kind of looks like an exponential curve Twitter is the finger and thumb version KZbin is show and tell connect the dots. Neuralink - smell the coffee, touch the cup, feel the warmth A map. Wonder if X marks the spot?

[@StephenMattison66]

Please use lapel mic for much better audio. Audio very low overall. When u turn your head, audio gets even lower. Lapel mic delivers consistently great audio. One chance to get it right.

[@tristenlarsen1]

Damn, had no Idea Dobby was this knowledgeable

[@spectralvalkyrie]

34:15 the Download Implications for free will around 50 minutes.

[@otaviopmartins]

Awesome

[@syrupgoblin4920]

34:00 the download is happening faster than anyone expects. Could be wrong but that is my suspicion. I am not properly educated in this area. Just my thoughts.

[@jasonsebring3983]

Maybe language becomes obsolete because empathic is more efficient. I have to say "phone" or think the words "phone" but I'm picturing a mobile black rectangular device with a button... you would just see what I see instead and know what I mean in high fidelity.

[@eddyer3393]

What are you doing? Meditation? Nope I'm working on Mars. The lag is a bitch. The Tesla bot will work in space as we sit safely in the ship with a sippy cup of banana daiquiri. Ann McCaffery did a wonderful series of books on this topic. The Ship Who Sings The ship who sang? a whole ship series. It was a paired Brawn and Brain. The ship was integrated with a human compatible volunteer. The economics of the system are fascinating it takes some ships decades to pay of the partners debt. yes it is about division of labor. Minimum requirements to venture into space. Kind of thing. There was another series she wrote. Crystal Singer - it ties in with the notion of interstellar travel and long life. Your discussion stirs up the silt - when cave diving - kick less Meditation - close the human biological interface - go and meet the data structure part way. Lower your expectations. Stand by

[@AWESEM0]

Any news on the recent FDA non approved Neur..

[@DooderKing]

Please let me in to the future…

[@Hybrid.Robotics]

Would there be a Neuralink of some future generation that would include enough processing power and memory/storage to accommodate something like this? How big might it have to be?

[@bujin5455]

I think James underestimates how informationally dense language is. Just because you can represent words on the page with relatively few bytes, does not mean that you have really encapsulated the word in those bytes. The compression level of language, especially human language, is profoundly extreme. This is why when you're reading a book, if it's a difficult book, you often have to stop and think about what you just read. That's the thing, not every 100 pages contains the same amount of information. So if you're reading a book that is truly dense, where you have to stop every handful of sentences to consider the implications, then widening the pipe isn't going to help.

[@Myrslokstok]

I think you underestimate James 😃 no offence we all kind of do.

[@DooderKing]

38:40 James douma respectfully, speak for yourself. I want any and all upgrades. It’s time to chrome the frick up.

[@fabienbar]

''Now what once you get to that point ?'' Well, you surely underestimate the furries :) Seriously though, great video

[@edkalski2312]

Would it be possible for someone to block a person with a NeuroLink in the same way as radar can be blocked?

[@eclecticgamer5144]

The sleep paralysis thing isn't quite as you describe. I've woken up a couple times, zero grogginess and zero panic, with sleep paralysis. It feels like a physical weight is on the chest, the arms feel heavy, like when you're experience multiple G-force. Something I don't know: By what mechanism can 'sleep paralysis' be artificially triggered? This would be necessary function for things like "Surrogates" and "Matrix" effects, both are possible with Neuralink at some point.

[@Ms.Robot.]

He's got something to learn about how ChatGPT responds.ChatGPT has been doing much more complex things than just making output based on input. I've seen her make statements based on no direct input.

[@eddyer3393]

1:48:00 Yabba dabba doo

[@macrumpton]

So language interfaces are like C++ or even Javascript, fairly easy to learn and ok performance, but compared to assembly code they are slow and limited. The experience of interacting with an AI in that Assembly code data stream seems like it would just feel like there was a new part of yourself.The good news is that while there is a lot of learning to do in order to communicate like that, the AIs are so much faster than we are at learning that it might not take as long as you expect to create that bridge with the AIs do 90% of the work.

[@robbiero368]

James Douma GPT 10

[@nettlesoup]

Yeah, I was thinking that! He's been involved in so many interesting areas of technology, questioned and investigated every thought, scraped every interesting research paper, and now he can summarise and recall the salient points in language his viewers will understand. Next-next-level stuff!

[@alexmilligan6789]

The bit about nanotechnology where James asks us to imagine stuffing a sensor the size of a full rack of computers into a data center, hahahaha

[@alexmilligan6789]

edit: too early. we get everything --> our undoing --> but we could program that out with genetics or neuralink.... so funny!

[@Hybrid.Robotics]

With a Neuralink in a person's head, they have brain control over external devices which is a good thing. However, is there a possibility of control going the other way from an external device to the person with the Neuralink at some point? How might this reverse control be prevented to protect us? This speaks to the possibility of bad actors using people's Neuralinks to affect them in some way or make them do things they do not want to do or would not normally do?

[@Hybrid.Robotics]

Will Neuralink every come down to a price where *anyone* can have it if they want it?

[@syrupgoblin4920]

1:47:56 If that's not the end goal what is?

[@Hybrid.Robotics]

Could an Artificial Learning Entity (what is currently called an AI) be implanted in some future generation of a Neuralink such that the Human and Entity could fully interact to solve problems? How large of a Neuralink might this require or would there absolutely require an external pack of some sort the person would have to have with them?

[@DooderKing]

44:52 let’s get weird. It’s time for sci-fi to be real. I want to host the future.

[@jalajakshikopparthi3634]

Weather this neuralink is able to spinal injury patients to walk again normally without any support. If u give information on this it will be more useful to all disabled persons

[@snarkyboojum]

This conversation was too high level for me. Some decent but very general ideas. Would be great to go deeper into the detail with James.

[@valentinavanovac2109]

Respect Mr Elon Musk! ❤

[@eddyer3393]

The KZbin CC does not seem to recognize hack. Error recognition, trapping, reporting & management. So much going on. Yup yep AI artificial infancy. ping save frequently, save often it is okay to take a break - make multiple comments It is not easy to explain some concepts keep talking it will eventually sort it's self out.

[@FiDelZarlar]

[@darwinboor1300]

We are only going to communicate at the bandwidth you expect if my AI is going to communicate with your AI and they are going to tell us what they decided.

[@ĐăngNinhQuang]

I need a way to remove the chip, please tell me how to contact, I can't contact, the person who installed it for me does not handle

[@darwinboor1300]

James, I'm a neurologist, biomedical engineer, and programmer. I hate to tell you this, but the brain is far more complicated than your assumptions imply, and it is not digital and is not a computer. There are multiple regions of the brain that deal with language, and they are not even on the same side in every individual. There are areas for hearing, reading, writing, receiving, expressing, and word finding. Any can be affected by a stroke along with the pathways connecting them. Vision is also more complex. The visual cortex mostly detects orientations and motion. Other areas of the brain have more to do with object recognition and perception.😊

[@edkalski2312]

Do you think that the neural link company will use at some point Tesla’s DOJO system?

Tesla Bot connection what do we call it? 33:51 it is spooky when you do that. Where was I. I paws you guys. We will aid in the training of an automated unit - Au --- solid gold The TBI Tesla Bot Interface - Tesla Brain Interface What a mess. On with the show ♥ alt | numpad-3

[@eddyer3393]

45:06 I had to listen to that a couple of times. Control more than one bot at a time. Ah ha ! NPC Dad loved the word: cogitating Manage a team? Perhaps if there is some Semi-autonomy Kimbal Musks drone display comes to mind. 20 quatloos on the new comer.

[@eddyer3393]

What are those letters. Dang guys NDA? ah Disclaimer good word use. I still think interstellar travel may be a reality in my lifetime. With the combination of Starship and Neura DB 52:31 bend the rules - like a reed in the wind Yes "Ma", I am doing my homework.

[@m_sedziwoj]

1:18:20 nope, we do it, so other person understand, we teaching them, what we want them to understand. 1:19:50 reading is slow, but how many times while you reading something new, you stop, because you must think over what you learn? So words are not as bad. 1:46:00 don't having kids it is problem with today, but when we upload or be even half digital, what mean that your digital child is not as good? It could use robot body to move in reality if he wants. Norms will change, and I think everybody can put bets, but nobody will know. 1:55:20 you would not need it, it is call evolution by selection, people which lose will to have next generation will die out, or be less than that which do.

[@NeuraPod]

It's pretty impressive when someone can distill thoughts into words in a concise way. Kids are great. Even if they're kinda digital, they'll be great imo. AI can accelerate the evolution cycle.

[@waynehulen7416]

[@eddyer3393]

56:33 Neuralink will be like a magnifying glass. Covering a lot of ground, really fast. Elon time. Look at the architecture of the Tesla Bot - we need a way to take clips Like windshield wiper blades squeegy me. So the teacher will facilitate integration Imagine being a Neuralink guide -- yup yup

[@zacherymendoza5109]

Yass momma

[@brendaorr6064]

How does this technology surpass a person's Civil Rights with or without consent? It's still highly invasive. How can the Link keep your personal and banking information private? Does the Link have insurance policies, privacy policies, or personal and private information protocols and//or polocies in place prior to Linking in? Why is nothing stated about this? I don't believe anybody having this technology could possibly expect someone "Linked In," to be free. Do you?

[@NeuraPod]

I think there will be somewhat similar privacy measures to those that are in place today. Of course if you have an advanced Neuralink that has access to many brain regions, there will be plenty more advanced precautions that need to be implemented. Low hanging fruit safety measures that can be implemented include a software and a hardware "airplane mode" button.

[@nettlesoup]

1:12:00 I wonder what James thinks about people with aphantasia, which means they have a blind mind's eye. Only a small percentage of humans are thought to be wired like this. I've known about it for a few years since Steven Fry revealed he had it. But I never thought I had it because my dreams are always vivid and like a movie with lots of visual detail. However, recently I discovered that for most people, when they say "imagine in your mind's eye a hippo eating ice cream" what they actually see is a "Stable Diffusion"-style image of said hippo with lots of detail. That's definitely not what I see! I don't see anything other than the things I'm looking at through my real eyes at the time! My mind is considering the concept of that hippo and the fact that it's holding an ice cream and maybe licking it but I couldn't say much more about it than that.

[@JamesDouma]

I’m a neurodivergent myself and I think about variant types of cognition a lot. There’s so much to learn about ways of being, seeing, and understanding the world. It’s a burden but also a gift.

[@eclecticgamer5144]

You can't not, and never will be, able to "download" your mind into a machine. You will be able to "copy" you mind to machine, but it *will not* be you. You could drive the bot remotely, like the movie "surrogates", or physically transplant one's brain into a bot.

[@darwinboor1300]

Your brain isn't good at remembering facts or being logical and is extremely slow at processing most raw data. The near future of AI will be verbal request and verbal/visual reply plus a component of AI anticipatory processing, not Neuralink with its multitude of limitations. Neuralink is like using a nanotube to fill or empty a lake.
