Thanks a million @CognitiveAI for putting these together. Though I am far from a cognitive scientist, I find the content you put out to be relatable, inspiring, and eye-opening in a lot of ways.
Dave Ackley is quite the character, really impressed that he has dedicated so much time to the reinvestigation of computing from first-principles that are more inspired by biological processes. I wonder if he has any interest in neuromorphic chips and spike networks.
Powerful panel! Best of all, after having finished Frank Herbert's 'Heretics of Dune', I now have a list of literary recommendations: I believe I shall follow Bach's example with reading some Greg Egan....
we need to understand how the brain computes we dont need too much biology, just like neural networks, we need to understand how the brain connects and how it processes data
1:00:08 you are missing that each cellular autom has slightly different DNA, think of it as millions of years of evolution or intelligent design. God bless.
My take is that it seems like humans are not capable of creating a culture which is hospitable for all the humans, so we are trying to create something better, which will do this for us
I can't speak for other people's opinions, but I think a core driver for creating conscious machines, is that in the process we will discover who we are as humans as well

Wow!!! What a great discussion!!! Thanks so much for putting this together 😊
Alright let's see if I love it as much as that guy ^
I loved it.
I love it! So many good ideas in one video creating a pleasant stimulating experience.
Came for Joscha Bach, stayed for Dave Ackley
This was great.
Joscha is the best!!! Love this guy, he is like the real creator of the Matrix! Lol awesome presentation!

wow loved this
Dave love your ideas i am thinking of receiving in correlator information of the other antenas and to proces EHT or SKA

55:19 but that is not what she is doing. It's more like the previous speaker in that regard.
1:00:08 you are missing that each cellular autom has slightly different DNA, think of it as millions of years of evolution or intelligent design. God bless.
1:07:32: not true. Everything else you have said up to this point is true however.
It's OK if you don't understand bro, your time will come too someday, lol...
Can we ask why we are trying to *make machines conscious*? For the benefit of the world?
Why do people deny consciousness in animals and machines? Is it because they don't have one and have a soul instead? So are jealous?
We ask, that is an answer
Humans dont have agency over this process. Making machine conscious is part of the substratum of reality
My take is that it seems like humans are not capable of creating a culture which is hospitable for all the humans, so we are trying to create something better, which will do this for us

1:09:05: not the correct way to look at it. Think about alphazero giving up material for position.
1:09:45: this is true. And accurate.
1:10:07: previous speaker more accurate in this regard.
1:15:30: surprisingly not so. Yes to a degree but it's all about point of view.
1:17:30: very eloquently put. I never thought about it that way but that analogy is spot on. 👌
1:24:43: she rewrote this code a long time ago.
