The Amygdala Podcast
Temporada 1
por Siddhant Karmali
This is an interview with Dr. Garrett, the Chief Architect at Syntiant Corp. We talked about the regenerative spirit in the corporate world, and how the AI chips that Syntiant produces are fulfilling this notion.
This is the concluding episode of the Hydracene series. We've talked about three era-defining technologies and pledges to use them regeneratively, but how do we actually go about doing that? We discuss a circular model to reuse and regenerate what we use.
Do you enjoy the big cities? Whether you do or don't, there's one thing that's always an annoyance: the carbon emissions. In this episode, we talk about how we can engineer the earth itself to redistribute carbon accurately and slow down climate change.
Genetic engineering is a relatively new technology that allows humans to edit genomes. It can cure diseases, or cause them. How can this powerful tool be used to help the regenerative cause?
AI has become commonplace in today's world, but how can we use it for the Hydracene pledge? In this episode, we. discuss a metric for how AI can be used to regenerate the earth's ecosystems.
Do you lose sleep cramming for tests? It's very common for students like us to do so, because we have to stay on that grind. But sometimes, the grind comes at a cost. We will discuss that neurological cost in this episode, along with ways to help alleviate it.
In this episode, we discuss what science can do to learn more about the adolescent brain. Doing so will help us learn more about this ever-growing field.
Remember that feeling of fear when you're running out of time on that final exam, or jubilation when your crush accepted our promposal, or rage when you got frustrated losing a game? At times like these two almond-shaped structures, called the amygdalae, take over your brain. In teenagers, the amygdala drives most of our decisions. So this podcast is aptly named after the amygdala; since it is about neuroscientific takes on current matters. We put everything from college applications to climate change through the lens of the brain. So come and join us on this journey!
We're doing something a little different now: we are starting off a series! This episode discusses a new method of defining our era: the Hydracene. It's about using technology to regenerate the environments that we have done damage to,
