In less than seven min you explained to me what the teacher spent 4h talking about. I can not find words to thank you. You saved me from failling the test
I absolutely love stuff like this...being a fan of all things scientific in nature, this gives me a massive, unrelenting mindboner...and this video explains why!
I just watched a video by a flat-earther who believes the moon is a hologram. I'd love to see a 3D diagram of his brain. Thanks for sharing this enlightening presentation. Just found this video 10 years on.
So what I am understanding based on this is that the way we make decisions is a branching effect, in which a neuron decides based on certain perimeters whether or not to give out a signal to another neuron, and the process repeats itself many times until a conclusion is made, and then an action can be decided based on that conclusion
My text book made the transfer of ions through the cleft sound like rocket science. Thank you so much for explaining it in a way that is understandable. Ions are atoms with + or - charges, they travel through the neuron and enter through receptor sights on the next neuron. This transfer of ions changes the charge of the next neuron which is what keeps the current going. The neuron animation is cool!
You can think of it as a program, implemented on interconnected neuron set. The bytes that represent a program are independent entities, but they form a program, and one function of such bio-program is to form a control entity - mind
while i had no problem with the accent, i think that subtitles are still a good idea because for alot of people all these terms u use are new and unfamiliar and i'm sure you posted this great video to help people understand their own brain and through it their own personality - and subs will help them.
Yes, but how does the brain does what it does ? For example, how does a neural network can process vision, recognize sounds and words, recognize people's faces or have emotions ?
i think if your brain contained too much hatred, for any subtle reasons it is likely rather you can makes things worst especially you're processed power in you which can causes devastation.
The truth is we know a ridiculously small amount of how the brain 'works'. I would really like to know exactly how all the emotions, memories and perceptions we have change and link together in the brain. But right now all we can really do is stick a bunch of electrodes on peoples heads and make vague connections between parts of the brain and certain events. Imagine a world where every single thing we feel could be explained fully in terms of the complex workings of the brain.
interesting, i was just thinking to my self that we base so many of our inventions on the human body. If you look at the concept of a house it has an exterior, like the human epidermis which protects us from outside elements. studs and beams are our bones wiring much like our central nervous system & plumbing much like our gastrointestinal intestinal system. Of course the human body is much more complex but interesting if are creativeness subconsciously comes from the way our body is designed
I'm sorry but it takes a brainless person to dislike this video. In a very pleasant voice, with amazing graphics, and in less than 7 minutes, he summarized key elements of the most complex and remarkable organ in the human body. Thanks!
If we understood how it really worked, we could process high level language and complex visual scenes. We could also understand consciousnesses. Even if we have a lot of anatomical detailed knowledge, the overall mechanics remains a mystery.
one day we will have such an advanced knowledge of how the brain works in relation to how individual functions relate to specific structures that we will be able to map these structures to physical silicon based hardware that will allow a more natural form of computational processing. this will allow the creation of androids, mechanical humans with the same reasoning power as humans, dare I say the same emotional capabilities as humans. this will not be science fiction forever
Great video! My only disagreement with it is the idea that different parts of the cortex are so different. They all work the same way, except they have different input sources.
One should not have to struggle with words when watching this sort of video. It would be nice, if someone who speaks a little more distinctly would be kind enough to remake this video. No offense intended for the person who made this video. It seems to be a brilliant video. I just don't want to struggle with interpretations.
Great video. Very informative and useful. However, it implies that the brain and the mind are the same thing. The brain is part of the body that can be photographed, operated on, seen and touched. The mind is non-physical. You cannot see a thought or a feeling. The mind and body (of which the brain is a part) influence each other but are not the same entity. They are in a relationship. When we see part of the brain light up, it is the effect of the mind on the brain. I hope this helps.
Very low quality audio. It is like listening to a video off of one of the first camera phones with that capability. ): This video would be very good otherwise, but I unfortunately cannot understand some of the words. On a lighter note, the auto captions are hilarious.
there no reason the brain shouldn't be able to understand itself. we aren't born with any knowledge of the world around us, we have to learn it from studying it. if you take the time the human brain can wrap itself around anything even itself. humans are the only species with an imagination. we have the ability to imagine different worlds, and make assumptions based on any evidence we can find. the brain is a truly remarkable organ.
The brain is a receiver and consiouness is the Earths energy which is harvested as awareness into a physical body. The birth cycle of evolved consiouness currently ends with humans. When we die I guess our mature Entergy parts to complete another cycle.
