“Overeducated fish farmers”. haha I love your narration, most of all your questions and visual reveals of the most cutting edge science on consciousness.
Slicing of brains into small pieces & studying it is a start - it is one difficult task but i hope many years from now we get a better understanding of how our complex brain works
The idea of understanding my condition - Tourette Syndrome - on that level of detail is tantalizing af. I wonder how far science/tech/humanity will come on that front in my lifetime.
10:59 It breaks my heart to see that guy cruising along on his roller blades with no safety gear. Not even a helmet! I'm 67 years old and have over 4000 miles on my blades and always where the appropriate exoskeleton, elbow pads and all. I have had a few spectacular wipe outs but get up and keep going. That poor man only has to hit a small stick on the trail to end up a bloody mess.
The Human brain is so complicated even in a million years time humans will barely understand it, and its said to be the ''most complicated thing in the universe'' which surprises me knowing how stupid some people on the internet are (not talking about you lol).
@@davidpark761 arent we kinda already neo fuedalism? after just looking up the definition you could make the argument that we already are. a small group of the rich largely determine the outcome of the world right now and workers have less rights than they've had for a while. it's nearly impossible statistically for a person who didn't start out in this controlling class to end up in it.
10:10 If a bird can determine the orientation of magnetic field by triggering quantum mechanical effects in its eye, I wouldn't consider that idea so outlandish. Sounds quite reasonable even
But wouldn't every single human have a different wiring diagram in their brain? It's like having a wiring diagram of one city and applying to every other city in the world.
I think you might be right. But there could still be value out of figuring out how things work. For example, the tall big buildings in cities are skyscrapers and most are corporate headquarters. And buildings with lots books in them are libraries and every county seems to have one. And the bad guys are held in prisons, etc. If you can figure it out for one brain, then it could make it exponentially easier to figure it out for ANY brain. But you have a great point!
first off once we manage one we're for sure doing hundreds or thousands more at some point, and while it may not be a perfect map to your brain it'll give us way more insite than we've had until now. especially on what kind of connections exist. it's like getting a book that teaches you about cities using an example of a specific city. there's still tons to be learned about "cities" in general, specific cities isn't what we're focused on.
Just like the DNA of humans and apes differ at about 1.2% and 0.1% between individual humans respectively, for me it is safe to say that the difference in brain wiring is not that significant. "Form follows function" come to mind. It will serve as a general map for future brain mapping :))
Not millions probably hundreds considering even with our current technology we can already map out a cubic millimeter of brain and judging by how fast out computer technology is advancing I think in a couple hundred years we should have most diseases cured
Expectation of Immortality is immature once you understand our own self is only a stream. A much better way to perpetuate self is procreation. It drives the evolution forward, unlike the stagnation in immortality.
Could train a AI to analyze every picture and construct the image for you. Then you can reconstruct the entire construct of a brain into a supercomputer. Then have a virtual brain.
The point I was trying to make is that it would be an interesting template you would still have to give each individual neuron and its connection its weights
Really liked the "expectations management" point , try explaining how a pc work to a kid starting from the wall outlet, to the monitor and the pixels.... keep in mind :) it's made by a human. I think a human is a lot like a PC , hardware only is absurd , software only is absurd as well, only the sweet spot between them
we can now seriously consider we can have a brain copy but just a single cubic mm is 1.4 petabyte of raw data then to actually completely simulate it or also whole of the brain of it ..can we actually do it ?!
One glaring fault is when he states that memory is 'almost certainly in the wiring diagram' [of the brain] - that is not (a) a proven statement and (b) not supported in the research. If you start from a faulty base, everything you build will have that inherent fault built in. Much like last year's Nobel Prize winner that demonstrated what transmitters were responsible for chronic pain showed that the use of pain medications which are aimed at the pain nerve fibers and acute pain do not work because they are not the neurons involved in chronic pain.
Other people say it's a colossal waste of money and time. Well, even if we won't benefit from it.. Even just knowing after trying that it's really not the way, is golden knowledge that worth the effort. Someone believes in this, well, let's be happy that he has so much interest in this that he pours a lot of money and human resources into this. And also, if we don't manage to find what we are looking for with these brain maps; there might be a lot of other potential things we can find out that we are not looking for. I hope they will open their maps to the public. Then anybody with an idea can see if their idea makes any sense. Alchemy: what a waste of time and money was it, right? Oh; hell No! Just look at where we got because of alchemy. We didn't manage to create gold in the end, but look at all the other things we got from it without even looking for them.
9:06 That's already newly discovered, as I understand. If you don't do these scans, you can never know what information you could miss that's important. If you do the scans and find nothing new, that's also much informative, as you don't have to waste time thinking about what if there are important things we don't know about.
Big Data means that all sorts of audacious scientific research is now possible. Everything that is learned will help us in the future in some way. And science is synergistic, so things learned in one area often become useful in another area. Just do it...
Dr. Lichtman lists a bunch of brain diseases and forgets the most important one before autism, that neurotypical-ness devastating large swathes of the human population for millennia. I diagnosed the man himself having this disease- stay strong Dr.lichtman you brave soul
clearly the connectome will only be a small part of a person just like the genome is a small part of an organism. the 4 pieces ATGC the code of dna only mean so much now that we know about gene expression and epigenetics and also all of the other things that interact with the organism like environment like nutrients, microbiome(bacteria, viruses, etc). we will need many connectomes to see the variety
this isnt the research that would make that possible? they're mapping a brain not your brain. the current map making for a brain requires you slice it thinner than a human hair how would they figure out what you're thinking?
they aren't? when i look it up i see an increase of below 64 demtia of 131 percent but the original number was only 37,000 meanwhile of the people who've made it past 71 3.4 million (or about 13.9%) have dementia, and the increase could easily be explained by better diagnostic practices. dementia is caused by accumulation of a broken protein in the brain, so the only thing that could even cause more dementia in young people would be something that increases the error rate for this protein.
Why this lab is slicing human brains into little pieces: Starting in 2022 the human race will 100% evolve to homer simpsons. That lab will shutdown soon.

“It’s an additional tool”, I agree with that. Mapping the human brain is a tool, not an answer
Our brain is so complex and there is much more to find out about it. Increasing neuroplasticity should be a priority for everyone.
Great job, Mr. Vance!
Wow, that last part is certainly something to be concerned of.
