Inside a mini-brain (with eyes?) lab - Science unscripted 

13:45 ⏯️

​@@dw_podcasts It makes the video much worse

I guess to imagine how the mini brain sees the world.

There’s no scientific evidence that those eyes see using a 360° field of vision. I see no relevance nor justification to fisheye being added other than the camera crew having access to 360° camera and wanting their moneys worth. qwq lol

@@dw_podcasts I feel like instead of budgeting for a second camera (and another camera angle) they went for this 360. Then they got too stoned in the edit bay.

well what else am i… the tiny brains. what are they supposed to do? i wouldn’t know, i’m not a tiny brain. i’m not. i’m not a little brain in a lab.

Lol😅😅😅 what if there conscience

@@vitmartobby5644 a small little brain like that couldn’t do much except cry for help online after finding a way to brain hack into a computer snd learn english. i wouldn’t know though

Perception is a quintessential pillar of life, without perception stimulus would be meaningless, you wouldn't be able to differentiate food from adversary, etc.

100%. WHY do they put in just eye cells? They try different ways to make conscious brain. Like they got brain cells to play ping pong- here we have to use our brain, intuition, and gut feeling, and not accept being silenced bc “you don’t understand science”. What happens when they put this into chips in large computer systems? We have no idea if this really was the reason for ChatGBT breakthrough. HOW will they eventually break this to us? Sooner or later they will have to.

Hi Massa - those were definitely the goofiest questions we asked, but they're also questions we saw real people posing when this research was first published. And we think it's fair to try to answer those, even if they're not you're looking for, since for some people they're as important, or more important, than the hard biology itself (which we got into later).That said, we'd love to hear what you would have asked Jay and his team if you don't mind posting a question or two here? There's a good chance we'll see him again, and we'd be happy to ask on your behalf.

See in a bigger picture. 🙏🏻GET THOSE DEBATES OUT FOR ALL TO SEE. Closely connected to AI, (OpenAI?), “brain-chips”, neuroscience, Brain organoids, consciousness, ethics, G5 arms race, NPUs, bio-cybernetic cerebral organoids, Synthetic Biological Intelligences, Antagomirs etc.

@@dw_podcasts Yes, and you forgot my most pressing question: does it poop?

@@jianju4916 😆

Noted!

Same. Had to stop watching 😞

well, isnt that impressive how well somebody predicted the future someone is living and you are not even out there, facing the science, instead leaving some comments about a Skit that didnt impress you

People like me who get overstimulated by it can just look away from the screen occasionally. I spent maybe ~50% of the video looking away from the screen. 😅

@@JoBot__ i love that im not alone fighting that fight, it was pure adhd joy trip, there is just 100 comms here, and all hate on my fav feature, no worries, im a good bot too, i can multitask myself to the oblivion so everyone will know how much i hate yall haters for telling those extremely talanted folks what tot do.. they could me so much more creative if not your constant guidance... the fate of those who giver a fuck about you nasty little gremlins

Hi Tom, we actually did ask this question of Jay but the audio was unusable (due to construction noise outside the window). Here is the transcription: CONOR: So, at the very least you're saving some animals out there from having to undergo experiments? JAY: Definitely! Not only are we saving the animal models in this case, but we are trying to understand the human-specific mechanisms that these animal models may not be able to offer to us. We are speaking about human materials. And we are able to generate hundreds of organoids, not just one or two, so we have a better understanding of the biology, of the statistics, how many data points are validating our findings. We don’t have to sacrifice animals for this research. Animal testing is indeed important to understand better the biology in a living organism, but in my opinion it is better in our experiments to study the human-specific biology using human-derived materials.

4:30 a.m. Canada crew, represent! Thanks for coming over here to say hello, Adrian, you made our day 😀

👍🤝 Course - feel free to flash our email so students can give feedback, would be interesting to hear their perspective! 📧 su@dw.com 📧 Lepo pozdravljeni!

@@dw_podcasts Perfect! Thank you very much, will do. :)

well, you dont like it, I do :)

To some degree I suppose they do

I heard somewhere however that the human brain is more like a cellphone in terms of computing power but has a lot of memory and can paralellise processes very well, thus its speed.

the only limit to lab grown meat was that it couldnt get oxygen into the core so it could only grow so large, now they formed lattice work of veins and a pump to transport oxygen bearing protoplasma into the inner muscle, whatever however im not sure, but now they can grow larger pieces of muscle with this method and keep it alive indefinitely provided of pumping action, make a heart, you have a brain, grow a chicken without a womb, imagine the technical progress one could make. you could grow your little thing around an organoid linked to a quantum processor fiddling with them every once in a while because they are within a transparent growth chamber/artificial womb. you could make a creature with smarts that you could control completely.

your comment is emberassing sweetie, you are a hater,but dont worry, you will grow out of it, plenty of people before you did, wellcome to the internet. nobody likes toxic comments, you will need to remember that your digital footprint lets plenty room for consequenses

nice concert btw

@@SillyTech-gf3mi I don't give a shit

Like it’s not edgy at all.

@@Guckeezy Who said it was supposed to be edgy? If you had even watched the video you'd know it was there for a purpose, that being to give you a perspective of what it might be like to be one of those brain organoids.

There are no sensory nerves on the brain itself, brain way too small to have consciousness

the best kind

Hi Nerona, one day no one will believe that you were number 37 on this channel. Our suggestion: Take a screenshot of your comment, print it, and have it professionally framed - and then create a digital non-fungible token as well. Anything less would be a grave error...

Well, I've already screenshot the proof that I'm your 37th subscriber (I screenshotted it before I subscribed to this channel). Tomorrow I'll print my screenshot that proves that I'm your 37th subscriber. I'll put it inside the frame and display it on our front door so that if someone asks me what my biggest achievement in life is, I'll tell them to "look at the front door of ours." You'll see my biggest achievement in life and I'm the 37th subscriber of DW Science Unscripted, the most famous podcast channel in the whole universe, and they will be proud of me". LMAO. You know, I'm a psychic, and I can feel that you'll hit millions of subscribers before 2022 ends. I tried to find your Instagram, but I couldn't find it. Do you guys have Instagram? By the way, I'm just kidding that I'm a psychic. If you reach millions of subscribers before the end of 2022, you'll give me $1,000. LMAO! Deal? just kidding.

We liked this comment so much that we printed it and put it on a wall here at DW

@@dw_podcasts WHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHGHA 💀💀💀💀

@@dw_podcasts you made my day 💀💀💀

It's all good Gimbatul - we're going for the slow burn 😉🔥🚀

oh, unfortunately i dont see any progress on that regard, well id suggest a part two, this time visit The Thought Emporium, he will have plenty more to say , as his cells learn to play doom as you read this comment

We dropped the 360 camera after this video, but the conversation was a real one - not sure what you mean there? - Conor

Interesting.

yeah, ever played with it? i guess not , so dont dare ruining the fun for those fellas, who tf are you to tell them what to do? you are just a randonm ass youtube user, know your place

NOPE , its my favorite effect, screw you , if you dont like it, just dont look at it, you can still hear it, its not your job to dictate what artistic choice was unessesary. do you go to a gallery and mock the artists? thats a fun life you have

Thank you for your feedback.

they are cells, they are swiming in a nutrious puddle and absorb the yummi folded strings of mass thats been provided to them by HIM

They are already conscious to some extent. Anything capable of thinking to any capacity has some degree of consciousness. It's just very small. So if these really are mini brains like they say, they must be capable of very minor and simple thought, less than even an insect though probably

its the delirium that science gets, if you dont like it, its not for you then, leave

well, then you didnt vibe with the humor, happens

im sorry bro, perhaps i would even try arguing with you , but trust me with your thumbnails you have no say, get more creative, you have so many artistic potential you can furfill instead of just sticking ur face everywher, you will notice a significant boost in interest, trust me

Hi Chailyn, welcome to the channel! 🤝🥨🍻

rip

Nobody said ever that'd be uncanny as hell

@@brunitoforrester I didn't say that!?🤣

I can think of absolutely zero potentially unethical consequences of this idea

@@catpoke9557 Its a joke

@@mrnobody.4069 so is my comment

awful, unserious commenter, should not be taken seriously. grop up dude. you can express yourself better on the internet. i reccomend you trying , youll notice that people will be invested in you if youll get more elaborative about your stuff, and will actually have suggestions instead of unreasonable toxic hate you and people before you ... and unfortunately after will keep spreading but not if you will wake up and decide to mature out of it, to actually use the internet with its true intention. to exchange data. your comment fr just wastes space on big corporation's server dont you feel litlee ashamed leaving it there, most likely knowing nobody would notice, and yet, here we are, you are cursed by alghoritms my friend, as i do not know what will come afte this comment, but im sure, one day ill come there with marshmellow and some friends, and well have a lot of fun :)

Nope, stfu, it’s interesting and the brains still aren’t capable of having a consciousness, and if it gets a consciousness then the scientists will take care of them, after all, its already possible to connect them to a computer

@@pezequilibradohace5anos538 Yeah not only aren't they advanced enough to have the ability for consciousness, but these braicells are grown from stem cells, just like most of your more advanced cells. Even then it's basically just cell replication just like all cells do. It'd be like saying it's unethical to scratch your arm as you're killing thousands of human skin cells or to extract cancer cells and grow them outside the body for research.

@@matheussandbakk9959 fair enough. Though I have a different perspective…that you should treat the small things as alive cause they are…even the skin you scratch off was once alive…and they should treated with respect as we do ourselves. Same thing with the inert components of your computer, rocks on earth…those are just as alive as we are and we should respect their existence not demean and destroy it
