I honestly thought that when he said "what goes through a potato's brain?" That the punchline would be, "its right there on the screen"
much better joke
I just dont get any of these jokes. Prob cause engish isnt my native
@@Artaxerxes. its a common joke to call people who think very slowly a "potato" because potatoes can not think. Its used for very slow computers as well.
*when your teacher tells you to put your thinking cap on*
Funny how that is an actual sentence, from who knows how long ago.. Probably back when we wore "Night-caps" too. But to think, where'd that come from? There's never been any Hats, or Caps, or Helmets, that has ever been anything like what we have today, with this thing, or nurallink.. Yet that "concept", that "idea" of a "Thinking Cap". has been around for a loong time.
@@JunkBondTrader u guys r cute
@@StanHowse Thinking caps can be traced back to Dunce Caps. Contrary to popular understanding, it was not a punishment but rather a genuine tool with no shame to the wearer. (at least in the beginning) It was created by a Franciscan teacher named Dunce. He tried methods to help students who struggled to pay attention, many I presume ADHD considering its pervasiveness. Dunce found that students who could not read normally were helped if he made them focus on a singular point above the horizon of their field of view. While fixated, dyslexic students could magically start reading if they focused on the point above their head that they could not see. The Dunce Cap's pointy top was something you could shift your mind's eye's focus too, your peripheral opening. Im not describing it well, this article clearly illustrates the phenomenon:
spdrdng.com/posts/speed-reading-technique-10-take-awareness-concentration-point
As I'm aware, this was the first type of caps for thinking, thinking caps. It is believed it was used before Dunce's creation, people using it for meditation. It is theorized that the Witch's hat is pointy for the same effect, superior focus while performing pagan practices.
@@ferrisbueller9991 Huh, interesting. Thanks for that.
Imagine a classroom full of kids all hooked up to the matrix
Lex put the raw data dump on onlyfans 😝
I'll beg for likes on behalf of this comment right here... ;)
Highly underrated comment 😂
That would be hot.
lex seems like the guy to do it for free unless its like a nondisclosure
OnlyFans is for simps and beta males
To get people to laugh, just tell them to try and not to laugh. Such a strange paradox
... Biggus Dickus
On a side note: Don't be scared, but...
I have a vewwy gweat fwend in Wome called Bigguth Dickuth
Whatever you do, don't think about elephants.
@@jackbradley4737 Always someone like you on here. Went ahead and searched the definition of paradox, which involves a seemingly “self contradictory statement or idea”, with a contradiction being an idea that is opposite of another. Being more prone to laughter while trying to not laugh in fact does seem to be a contradictory set of actions, and can thus be viewed as a paradox.
Lex Fridman is the type of guy
to use the Delorean to travel to the Present Moment .
Isn't that just every delorean?
underrated comment
@@balisticjoe Indeed it is ..
But too complicated for the Human mind to comprehend :)
Delorean like on the VeVe app
LOLOL!
Wears possibly the most advanced brain imaging technology to date
Lex Fridman: Why is this so comfortable
"Logan please come back to the mansion. The young mutants need you."
This Russian genius laughed at the word "Tater-thoughts"
Same
@@Heavywall70 yea academia nuts was good
What is tater and academia nuts?
yes tater thots are some of our favorite headless potatoes
What do fat hos eat. Tater-thots, infinitely funnier.
As someone in medicine, having a version of those in ambulances could save so many lives... Really hope i get to See something like that one day.
Mention it to the right ear, ripple effect
I was thinking stroke rehab and diagnostics. To be honest this would be useful for a tool for a wide range of treatment.
@@yepyepyep170 totally, yeah. Just as a means of saving time thats so valueable. Everything that can possibly be done on transport should be done on transport imo. The entire diagnosis ideally. Also i feel stuff like this is perfect when looking at traumatic brain injuries outside of an hospital.
@@alexanderschneider2047 absolutely!
Openwater are doing just that.
Kernel Sander’s blend of 52 nodes and spices.
Vastly underrated comment. 😂🔥🤖
Been watching your videos for a while now, just want to say thank you for having educational guests on the podcast, a lot of videos has helped me as a person, keep it up 🙌🏾
I have a brother that is a pretty big opiate addict, and everything I’ve researched says that the receptors in the brain go absolutely crazy when they are both high and also in withdrawals. It would definitely be amazing to see how it changes in real time from the time that person gets high, to the time they’re in a bad withdrawal from the drug. I bet it would be quite the light show. Just a thought. It would probably show the brain firing on both ends of the spectrum. On the other end of things, I think having this in a hospital or emergency room setting would be or could be extremely useful in so many ways. Really enjoyed this and it wasn’t at all what I’d expected it to be.
This is impressive! The current NIRS or EEG caps take a long time to set up, but the Kernel Flow took the assistant only a minute to fit on Lex!!
Ok. Would have been nice to see some feedback and then have it explained what it means.
Agreed, I was hoping they would explain what was happening.
He said it measures the electrical and chemical excitations in the brain
Anybody else randomly stumble across this clip and have no idea what the hell is going on?
@@triton62674 I think people are more talking about the scan itself. Would have been cool to get insight about why specific regions were lighting up as they were
@@MixMastaCopyCat Yeah, it's interesting and kind of strange that regions with more activity reflect/emit more photons back, that could use an explanation
I've have literally never seem Lex smile this much and look this happy! :D
I love how when he gave the last joke which didn’t make sense at all, Lex’s brain when everywhere trying to find an explanation to the joke. You can see the brain say wtf?
And finally that 'Demolition Man' scene is becoming real
They banged
The subtle awkwardness makes this feel like a PingTrip cut lol
Then: “to name a thing is to have complete control over it”
Now: “to blast a thing with 52 lasers and upload the readings to a digital schematic instantly is to have complete control over it”
This is incredible. Words can't describe my amazement right now. I didn't even know this was possible.
@@TheDankFarmer I did see that, it is pretty crazy. This type of technology is the precursor to technology that will help us figure out our own consciousness
IMAGINE studying the difference in brain activity of people that are meditating, dying, tripping, sleeping, etc, and all in their most comfortable settings. The possibilities are endless
'Nothing vast enters the life of mortals without a curse.'
Electroencephalography goes back to the 1950s.
@@JohnSmith-cf4vl my max dosage of shrooms was 6.5g of good ones, at once. I've been there lol
seeing the frontal cortex light up before laughing for a joke is so fascinating.
you can see the brain activation while understanding the joke and the social responce of laughter when the joke has been elaborated by the rest of the cortex.
just stuning
So stoked to see Lex's podcast blow up the way it has
It's breath-taking. I swear, so many people fail to just sit back in awe at this accomplishment. Hundred's of thousands of years, and we have come so far... Just a century ago, computers did not exist, but here we are in present day with this hell-of-a device. We are all going to see magic within the next 50 years
They really nailed the artificial brain on this L3x version. Congratulations to Dr Alexander Fridman and all the dev team
I am quite intrigued by Lex's response to wearing the helmet and feeling genuinely heard, followed by a concern for how fricken awesome it felt to be heard.
I kinda want to give his heart a hug.
Ive had a lot of concussions and a TBI, I’d love to use one of these one day, if I get the chance.
First neuro link, now this… SO COOL!
Coolest bicycle helmet
Yeah and when we connect it to the emergency operators theylle know when not to bother to hurry.
Magneto
Expensive bicycle helmet
I have never seen Lex so happy!!
It’s cool to see that center spot on the right side light up as soon as words leave their mouth.
5:05 "100 picoseconds" ..... Jon Jones must have had a hand in making this
1 second is the Olympic sized swimming pool in this case?
😂😂🤣
Nice
this would be great to see musical progression, or how you learn diff academic subjects
That thumbnail is the happiest Lex has ever look
Throw a NY Yankee sign on that and I'll rock it.
Yankee with no brain
@@Boyfriendsushitown 🤣
1983 film "Brainstorm", starring Christopher Walken & Natalie Wood (her last role). This is quite reminiscent of that movie. The future is now.
Nice to see your lovely smile, Lex! You really did seem delighted by this headgear
I kept waiting for it to clamp down on their heads like a face hugger from alien.
Kernel Flow: Tell me your 1's and 0's... Lex: No one's ever understood me on such a deep level
Is there an SDK out for it and is the sample data from this podcast available online?
As a Kid I had Several times received hard hits to the head. ( at 3 or 4 years old I fell out of a tree [ about 8 to 10 feet ] and landed on my head. I thought I split my head wide open it hurt so bad. That would have been around 1967 or 68. Then when I was around 5 or 6 or 7 I was hit in the head with a Baseball bat from the back side playing back yard baseball. I saw stars and of course it hurt. in 3rd grade I was hit in the face in the nose really with a hand sized rock ( blood everywhere ). Then in 4th grade I fell 15 feet from a hayloft and landed on the concrete floor hands and head first. I was knocked unconscious for 30 seconds at least to maybe a minute and broke both bones in each wrist.
I have issues learning with short term memory. Reading a book takes me forever as I have to often read the same page several times for the information to even click BUT then once I remember the information I usually retain the information for a long time Some people say How can you remember that instance from so long ago ? I CAN remember things long term ONCE the information is forced into my brain. In high school I graduated in the Top 1% of the Bottom 10% of my graduating class. lol True Story though.
***QUESTION*** Would this instrument show if people have any brain damage ??? Is there a test that can show Brain damage and ways to improve memory . I know there is NEW or NEWER information on repairing brain cells or actually creating NEW brain cells. I WOULD LOVE TO BE A TEST PERSON IN THOSE STUDIES.
This is really interesting.
This is only a hypothesis, but I would imagine the answrr to your question is yes.
From my limited understanding, memories work through electro-chemical synapses. This device may be able to monitor the activation activity in the relevent parts of the brain. If they observe unusually low activation for any given stimuli, then it may be infered that your brain was damaged.
Side note, please wear a helmet my friend lol.
it would be nice to have a link or the timecode to see the rest of this..
I immediately thought of that scene in demolition man
Amazing video! Let's see what the future brings
I find myself buying a kernel flow over a neuralink N1, because of multiple reasons :
- it's cheaper than the N1
- the flow looks like its out of a sci-fi movie
- it doesn't require brain surgery because it's a wearable
- it can produce data like the N1 with similar accuracy
Looking forward to it.
Yo this dude is next level, he was able to put an animated gif in the corner of the video, live. Whoa.
The podcasts are not live
@@philsburydoboy He was doing it in a post process on an offline video??
This just made me think of back to the future with Doc wearing that thing on his head haha
7:21
never thought of it like that
Lex is transcendenting intellectual thinking and stoner thoughts into a single continuum.
I want to wear this at work. Im a line cook and there's so much going through my head at work. I would love to see the data on people in different work environments.
Lex, you should do this more often. Testing out advanced tech before anyone
Reminds me of the brain interface in the original Judge Dredd movie! That movie is getting to be closer to reality every day.
Next step in evolution of "you laugh you lose"
What I gathered from a few seconds
Middle cortex constructive thinking
Top cortex question
Back cortex input listening dual reaction with the
Frontal cortex attentive
Imagine a device, that can transformer entire memories into a MP4 file.
A military threat
"Doc! I'm from th future, I came here in a time machine YOU invented, Now i need your help to get back to the year 1985"
"The Only way I've analyzed myself is my talking to myself and thinking " 🤣🤣💀💀💀
do we have scans of this on advanced meditation practitioners?
Pretty neat. Although, I wish there was more dialogue into the functionality behind the device and not the headshape modularity.
Lex, you Rock! (I "feel heard" ;)
That is an awesome, on the spot, point of view!
7:09 to 7:34 I have never heard it more eloquently put.
He is so happy :D
This would be great for biofeedback for learning skills, meditation, and hopefully one day, mind-to-mind communication via non-invasive means
Wonder if the benzos lex takes is affecting the reading
So the key to making the normally serious Lex smile is through Dad jokes? Okay, I'm in! I can make a lot of puns, Lex!
I wonder what kind of responses can be recorded when you do the Wim Hof breath work
I like to rewatch this and and hypothesize about what the activation data points to.
I'm assuming a increase in occipital, activation would be indicative of image retrieval.
Both of these guys are way to relaxing to listen to.
Hey Lex, you should ditch the color grading, it looks worse than just the flat color you used to use! How can I help haha
judges so hard walks around with a gavel..
+Arcane Bear Agreed. It's quite "something"...
Sincerely, a video editor by trade currently working in the tv / film industry.
Yeah I'd back off the red/orange.
@@cruzc5frc ita called being supportive dingle berry.. something you may have never had it appears
It looks nice 😔
Great. Thanks
When Marty meets Doc for the first time in 1955 and Doc tries to read his mind. I'm just waiting for him to stick a suction cap on his forhead 😂
My childhood sci-fi comics are coming true. Wow💯
Lex after he loses his hair, he's going to drop the L and E, they're too cumbersome. Slim it down, and from then on he'll be a professor, professor X.
Legit reminded me of the new cerebro Xavier wears in the current comics
Or Lex Luthor
Kernel helmet apparently helps growing hair...
@@Name-mi7bx when he merged with brainiac? I see where you're going.
Lex luthor dude
Is this the helmet where you choose on an app what you want to experience and it simulates the frequencies to your brain? I cant remember which device that was.
watching lex fail with the first joke made this my favorite clip of his 😁
yes. I will use this for my business.
7:09 cool point of view
ok i had to google this thing just based on the picture, and i kind of want one of these now
I love that this technology is becoming more prevalent. I aim to assist in the delivery of devices like these to the mass market 🔥
is is sending and receiving? or just receiving?
“This is like a much better friend”
If you want to read the mind just use a sound amplifier on the basilar membrane thought has to demodulate to be interpreted
The only request I have is if they ever make a commercially available product out of this to leave the ribbon cables and hinges exposed like that. It looks rad as all hell.
I lost at "What goes through a potato's brain"
Wasn’t even funny you’re just reacting off the guys reaction.
@@eggheadusa9900 How could you possibly understand what I do and don't find funny? You know nothing about me and you assume the reasons for my response?
@@Gaurdian55 I guess I know you better than you do yourself
2:27 "and we would love to see your thoughts" - 💀
This reminds me of a scene from Ghostbusters I love it
Wondering what the effect is on some cases of coma patients
watching lex laugh is everything
Next step is turning green, collecting entire cities in a glass biome and having a 12th level intellect.
I like green.
this was in my recommended and i just want to say he looks so much like Dale Cooper in the thumbnail
Amazing. This could lead to so many positive outcomes
And there is the flip side to it too when the technology matures and is in the reach of controlling authorities.
In this very moment, there is beauty in code running in tandem with our mind. But like the fear that Lex had when he was talking with Jocko about AI and war, unforseen consequences of a giant technological leap weighs heavily on the mind.
Cool are they on Amazon?
Can Kernel Flow detect single point focus success during meditation? (Whenever I get really good at single point focus during meditation I can have amazing out of body altered reality experiences, so this is really important for me to know)
This is epic!
I wish they would have kept the Brain video throughout the clip!!!!!
Why was the first thing to come to mind when they put those on their heads; I thought of Demolition Man? 🤣
man i been to gigs with people wearing these chill
Ok Lex used Ubuntu in this clip. Confirmed we are the same.
i want to work with technology like this.
mainly to develop the sleaves for videogame avatards
bascailly NPCs that can sense like humans within a digital enviroment then syncronize the tech so the human mind can opperate in a digital worl
first overlaying sensery input to allow compleat digital immersion and even allow memeory overighting etc applications are endless.
2:56 I cracked up on this one xD
