AI Meets the Mind - Neuroscience, Consciousness & the Brain with Dr. Larry Farwell
Applied Intelligence by Roderick Bates & Kelly Sarabyn
Episode notes
What happens when a Harvard-trained neuroscientist who has spent decades studying the brain meets the AI revolution? Hosts Roderick Bates and Kelly Sarabyn sit down with Dr. Larry Farwell - son of a Manhattan Project physicist and a pioneer at the intersection of neuroscience, quantum physics, and consciousness research.
Dr. Farwell traces his journey from asking life's biggest questions at fourteen to earning his PhD in neuroscience at Harvard, and explains why understanding consciousness may be the key to understanding - and better using - artificial intelligence. The conversation ranges from higher states of consciousness and Plato's Republic to quantum physics, intentional AI use, and his research into applying consciousness to create improbable outcomes in the physical world.
If you've ever wondered where the brain ...
