Thank you very much for this brilliant, entertaining, and profound journey through complexity. You have a special talent for explaining complex concepts in a very entertaining and fun way. I hope you continue this dialogue to include more insights about complexity, a topic that needs more dissemination and discussion. Thanks again, I enjoyed every step of the journey.
Wow. I expected food for thought, but not this much! Incredible (creative) work, and thank you, Josh, for sharing this with the world. The focus on the importance of sensory interplay was very informative and well put. I loved the little foray into agents at the end. For quite some time, I have been thinking consciousness has to be in part a result of our different sensory and computational processes running at different speeds, implying the need for a "space" where they all come together, or a "working memory". Consciousness (in itself a granular concept) the way we perceive it, cannot exist in a monolithical / single track mind as most traditional current AI approaches amount to. This podcast has added inputs to my own sensemaking of these ideas and, indeed, this world.
Thanks Josh! This series was a joy to listen to, and the understanding this episode in particular has given me of neural networks is unmatched - no other overview I've seen even comes close (although I guess they weren't as long). This last episode was quite information dense and I had to rewind a few times but apart from that the whole podcast was beautifully written. Well done.
Thank you Mr. Young. Ive learned so much from this podcast and the things you taught me will continue to impact my life for years to come. What an absolutely thought provoking program! Ill miss it dearly Thanks for creating this show. I look forward to whatever you decide to make in the future :)
