Episode 323 Temperatures in Antarctica have soared by over 35°C. Scientists are concerned about how quickly things are changing on the continent as these warmer temperatures impact the polar vortex. Coupled with record lows in sea ice cover over the last decade, this could be a sign that Antarctic weather patterns have shifted permanently. What's driving this change - and what happens if we have reached a tipping point of no return? Many mammals, including cats, can pivot their ears to focus on a particular sound. But our ears aren't quite so flexible. But now it appears that a similar process happens inside our brain - ‘swivelling' to focus on sounds from different directions. This has only recently been discovered thanks to new portable EEG equipment, as the process only happens when we're moving. This finding may help us better understand how movement changes the brain - and could even help improve hearing aids.  Why do women tend to live longer than men? It could have something to do with the very chromosomes that determine biological sex. By looking at birds, whose sex chromosomes differ from those of mammals, researchers have discovered an intriguing hint at what's going on. But does their new hypothesis hold up? Alongside all the emerging science, Rowan shares his own theory. And the team discusses the disappearance of the Y chromosome - and what that really means for men.

Dr. Amy Albright is a Doctor of Chinese Medicine and clairvoyant healer with 23 years of experience reading and transforming the human energy field. She's the co-founder of Holon, where she partners with leading neuroscientists to deliver intensive neurological transformation retreats that produce EEG-verified brain changes in just four days.But here's what makes Amy different: she doesn't believe in processing trauma. She believes in paradigm shifts so profound that the wound doesn't just heal—it disappears entirely, leaving you stronger, wiser, and more expansive than before.Most of us have been taught that healing means understanding our problems, labeling our pathologies, and slowly working through the pain. But what if that's the exact reason we stay stuck? What if the mind's need to process keeps us trapped in the story, while the energetic body holds the key to instant liberation? In this transformative conversation, Raj and Amy dismantle everything you thought you knew about healing and reveal the quantum mechanics of true transformation.In this episode, discover:• Why most healing modalities keep you stuck in your story—and what actually creates lasting change • The "tailbone technique" that activates biological safety in seconds (you can do this anywhere) • How to identify when you're truly healed vs. when you're still carrying trauma you don't realize • Why "processing" emotions mentally keeps you trapped—and what the energetic alternative looks like • The "coordinates method" for flipping paradigms instantly instead of analyzing problems for years • How to hold space for others' pain without getting pulled into their suffering • The foundational ingredients required for transformation that most people miss entirely • Why becoming grounded means remembering you're an "endless soul on an infinite journey"You are not broken. You never were. You are an energetic being capable of quantum shifts that transcend everything you thought was fixed. This conversation will show you how to stop swimming in circles and start embodying the freedom that's already yours.Connect with Dr. Amy:Instagram: @dramyalbrightWebsite: https://www.holonexperience.com/Connect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host. Quick-Glance Summary I walk you through an MIT experiment where 54 EEG-capped volunteers wrote essays three ways: pure brainpower, classic search, and ChatGPT assistance. Brain-only writers lit up the most neurons and produced the freshest prose; the ChatGPT crowd churned out near-identical essays, remembered little, and racked up what the researchers dub cognitive debt : the interest you pay later for outsourcing thought today. A bonus “switch” round yanked AI away from the LLM devotees (cue face-plant) and finally let the brain-first team play with the toy (they coped fine), proving skills first, tools second. I spiced the tale with calculator nostalgia, a Belgian med-exam cheating fiasco, and Professor Felienne's forklift-in-the-gym metaphor to land one mantra: *scaffolds beat shortcuts*. We peeked at tech “enshittification” once investors demand returns, whispered “open-source” as the escape hatch, and I dared you to try a two-day test—outline solo, draft with AI, revise solo, then check what you still remember.

Send us a textDr. Amy Albright's journey from atheist neuroscience student to pioneer in the field of consciousness transformation began with an unexpected spiritual awakening at age 18. This profound experience launched her on a path to explore the intersection of brain science and spiritual alignment—a quest that would eventually lead to groundbreaking work helping people access their highest potential through advanced neurofeedback technology.At Holon, the organization she co-founded with Dr. Drew Pierson, Dr. Albright has created what she calls a "laboratory temple"—a space where cutting-edge neuroscience meets sacred healing practices. Using medical-grade EEG technology, they measure thousands of brain data points simultaneously, identifying not just problems but inherent gifts and untapped abilities. "If we can measure it and name it," she explains, "we know how to help you change it."The results are remarkable. Participants often experience up to 40% change in brain function within just five days, with benefits continuing to develop for months as new neural connections grow. Through a process that looks like playing a video game with your mind, the brain—not the conscious mind—receives immediate feedback on how well it's performing the desired functions. This direct brain training helps people reduce anxiety, improve focus, access altered states of consciousness, and even enhance natural abilities like clairvoyance or healing.What makes Dr. Albright's approach revolutionary is her philosophical framework. She challenges the conventional psychotherapeutic model suggesting we can only achieve marginal improvements through years of work. Instead, she maintains that "we're on the precipice of a miracle at any given moment" and that "radical transformation is available without more suffering." This perspective stems from understanding ourselves as connected to something greater—capable of healing and transformation when we align with our true nature.Ready to explore your brain's untapped potential?

Anfallsformen, Ursachen, Diagnose, Therapie – bei jedem Menschen verläuft die Erkrankung Epilepsie anders und bringt individuelle Herausforderungen und manchmal auch Unklarheiten mit sich. Warum zeigt das EEG in einigen Fällen nichts? Wieso wirkt ein Medikament bei einer Person sofort, während andere Betroffene mehrere und andere Präparate benötigen? Und weshalb treten Nebenwirkungen so unterschiedlich auf? Viele Faktoren rund um die Erkrankung Epilepsie lassen sich nicht mit Sicherheit vorhersagen und so entstehen manchmal auch Fehleinschätzungen, die korrigiert werden müssen und aus denen wir lernen. In unserer neuen Podcastfolge sprechen wir mit unseren Kollegen Lt. OA Dr. Tobias Baumgartner und OA Dr. Jan Pukropski darüber, warum Diagnostik und Therapie sich bei Epilepsien oft so komplex gestalten und wie sie und ihre Kolleg*innen in der klinischen Praxis damit konstruktiv umgehen.   Haben Sie eine Frage zu Epilepsie oder epileptischen Anfällen, die wir in einer unserer nächsten Podcastfolgen beantworten sollen?

Meditation is Associated with Increased Brain Network Integration explores how mindfulness meditation enhances brain connectivity. In this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and his colleagues discuss their EEG-based study comparing novice and experienced meditators. Their findings reveal that experienced meditators exhibit significantly higher brain network integration in the alpha frequency band, suggesting improved information exchange between brain regions. These results provide key insights into how meditation may foster cognitive resilience and enhance mental well-being. Join us as we break down the neuroscience behind meditation and its transformative effects on the brain.Reference:van Lutterveld R, van Dellen E, Pal P, Yang H, Stam CJ, Brewer JA.

Mind-Body Connection: How Thoughts Trigger Immune Responses and Stress Affects the Gut

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 9-18-2025: Dr. Dawn opens by establishing her psychobiology background and introducing the neurohormonal axis connecting mind and body. She describes revolutionary research published in Nature Neuroscience showing that simply seeing sick people in virtual reality triggers actual immune responses. The study used VR avatars displaying infection symptoms approaching participants, measuring brain activity with EEG and fMRI while analyzing blood samples for immune cell changes. The research demonstrates that infectious avatars approaching in virtual reality activate the same immune pathways as actual flu vaccination. Brain areas including the salience network and peripersonal space system detect potential threats and communicate with the hypothalamus to trigger white blood cell activation. Proximity matters - threats 20 feet away don't trigger responses, but approaching threats do. Dr. Dawn explains the sophisticated methodology, including 128-channel EEG monitoring and flow cytometry analysis of immune markers. Participants showed faster reaction times when infectious avatars approached compared to neutral ones, demonstrating subconscious threat assessment. The study reveals built-in disgust responses that evolved to protect against pathogens. She comments on how her medical training rewire the protective disgust reaction through repeated exposure.. She transitions to discussing stress effects on gastrointestinal function, explaining how the gut-brain axis operates through the vagus nerve and neurohormonal pathways. The adrenal glands produce both immediate epinephrine responses and longer-term cortisol release, with chronic stress leading to digestive disruption, increased intestinal permeability, and microbiome changes that can trigger food sensitivities and autoimmune conditions. Dr. Dawn details the difference between acute and chronic stress responses in the gut. Acute stress redirects energy from digestion for fight-or-flight responses, while chronic stress causes mast cell activation, histamine release, mucus layer thinning, and bacterial overgrowth. These changes can lead to irritable bowel syndrome, increased food allergies, and even celiac disease in genetically susceptible individuals. The discussion covers various brain networks including the default mode network active during rest, the central executive network for problem-solving, and the salience network that switches between them when detecting important stimuli like threats, food, or reproductive opportunities. Functional MRI studies show these networks' activity patterns and their connections to immune system regulation through the hypothalamus. Dr. Dawn emphasizes practical implications for modern life, warning that constant screen exposure and doom-scrolling activate chronic stress responses unnecessarily. She recommends avoiding phones upon waking, spending time outdoors, wearing amber glasses for evening screen use, and practicing specific breathing techniques - inhaling for 5 counts, holding for 5, exhaling for 5, holding for 5 - to regulate nervous system activation and reduce inflammatory responses.

In this episode, neurologist and author Pria Anand helps us get a little more intimate with that grey, wrinkly seat of our consciousness.Together we explore both the structural architecture and the musical synchronies of the brain. We travel across the left and the right brain, "listen" to the meaning of different brain waves, and discuss some of the most perplexing examples from the annals of neuroscience. What emerges is not just an intimate journey through the organ that makes us who we are, but also an exploration on the meaning of pain, identity, and storytelling.As always, we finish with my guest's reflection on humanity.

Paul Buitink spreekt met Jort Kelder over de democratie in Nederland, de EU en de euro.Is Nederland vastgelopen? Jort noemt ons land extreem gebureaucratiseerd en een ambtenarensamenleving, waarbij die ambtenaren niet worden afgerekend op hun prestaties. Hij legt uit waarom hij Singapore als voorbeeld ziet van hoe het beter kan.Ons EU-lidmaatschap ziet Jort als een belemmerende factor. Hij vindt dat we het bij de EEG hadden moeten houden, of opt-outs hadden moeten regelen. Tegelijkertijd is hij geen voorstander van een Nexit en ziet hij federalisering juist wel zitten. Wel vindt hij dat politici eerlijker moeten zijn over de kosten die de EU en de euro met zich meebrengen voor de belastingbetaler, en benadrukt hij dat we geen Italiaanse schulden zouden moeten overnemen. Zou Nederland welvarend kunnen zijn zonder de euro? Is de EU te hervormen? Jort bespreekt de omgekeerde solidariteit in de EU, waarbij Nederlanders met minder vermogen Italianen met meer vermogen subsidiëren. Volgens hem zullen Fransen en Italianen uiteindelijk hervormen omdat de wal het schip keert. Nederland moet daarvoor wel harder onderhandelen. Ook bespreken Paul en Jort de mogelijkheid van een experiment met een parallelle munt om de Nederlandse onderhandelingspositie te versterken.Jort noemt Milei de meest interessante economische gebeurtenis sinds Thatcher. Waarom horen we zo weinig over hem in Nederland? En zou zijn beleid hier ook werken? Ook bespreken ze een hervorming van de Nederlandse democratie. Jort is erg kritisch op de Nederlandse kiezer.Tot slot bespreken ze het afnemende concurrentievermogen, de Nederlandse bevolking en saaie politici.

We're joined by Hongi Ngo, who developed a revolutionary technique for manipulating sleep oscillations during his PhD.  Closed-loop Auditory Stimulation (CLAS), which uses bursts of pink noise which are carefully timed to a particular phase of an existing brain oscillation to either boost or dampen the target oscillation.  It has been used to selectively strengthen or weaken memories, improve the immune response, reduce epileptic seizures, and even potentially to slow down age related cognitive decline.Hongi tells us how he got got the idea for CLAS, explains how it works, and tells us about some of his existing studies.  He talks about combining CLAS with Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR) and discusses the ideas for future of brain modulation methods with techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Some of the key papers discussed are:Auditory closed-loop stimulation of the sleep slow oscillation enhances memory (2013)Auditory closed-loop stimulation of EEG slow oscillations strengthens sleep and signs of its immune-supportive function (2017)Thalamic spindles promote memory formation during sleep thrugh triple phase-locking of cortical, thalamic and hippocampal rhythms (2017)Examining the optimal timing for closed-loop auditory stimulation of slow-wave sleep in young and older adults (2019)Auditory stimulation during sleep suppresses spike activity in benign epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (2021)Shaping overnight consolidation via slow-oscillation closed-loop targeted memory reactivation (2022)Check out our NaPS website to find out more about the podcast, our research and events.

Is ChatGPT Dumbing Down your Kid? New MIT Study Says, “Yes.”

The Critical Thinking Initiative

Is ChatGPT dumbing down your kid? It is and here's what you can do.A new MIT study reveals the powerful consequences of artificial intelligence on actual intelligence, and guess what? Simply (and terrifyingly) put, the use of artificial intelligence undermines your child's actual intelligence. In short, when children don't think for themselves, they don't learn to think for themselves. That should surprise no one.I'll get to the disturbing details of the study in a moment, but let me first explain why these outcomes were obvious and inevitable. In a nutshell, the brain functions like a muscle insofar that it becomes stronger when it is used and atrophies when it is not used. I could list a thousand additional factors that affect thinking, but that simple premise really is enough for this discussion.And when I say that the brain functions like a muscle, most people think I'm speaking overly metaphorically. I'm not. While the brain, of course, isn't actual muscle tissue, its functioning is remarkably similar. Much in the way that exercising muscles builds more muscles, exercising the brain builds the brain—literally. Every single time we engage in a thinking act, the brain builds more wiring, such as synapses through synaptogenesis, for that thinking act. On the flipside, the brain not only allows existing pathways to diminish when they're not used, it actually overwrites existing pathways with new ones.Watch this play out in the MIT study …The MIT StudyThat study is Your brain on ChatGPT: Accumulation of Cognitive Debt when Using an AI Assistant for Essay Writing Task, by a team of researchers led by Dr. Nataliya Kosmyna. The scientists broke a group of students down into three essay-writing groups: An “A.I.-assisted” writing group that used multiple LLMs (not just ChatGPT), a “search engine” group, and a “brain-only” group. The students then engaged in three writing sessions while the researchers monitored their brain activity using an EEG. Each student was interviewed after each session, and all of their writing was assessed by humans, as well as an A.I.So, what happens when one group is required to use their brains more than the other groups? Would it shock you to know that the group that needed to do their own thinking actually thought more? I hope not, not anymore than it should be surprising that a group of kids who practiced hitting a ball did better at hitting a ball than a group of kids who watched a robot hit a ball for them. (Okay, that's not a perfectly fair analogy to the A.I. usage in this case, but it illustrates the point.)And the point is that brain-only group performed better and scored higher on their essays. But that's not the most important outcome for us. What's more important is that “the brain-only group exhibited the strongest, widest-ranging networks” of brain activity, while the group with A.I. “assistance elicited the weakest overall coupling.” In other words, the brain-only group thought a lot; the A.I.-assisted group did not. Do you remember what we said about what happens when the brain “muscle” isn't used?But it gets worse. The researchers brought those two groups back for a fourth session and switched their roles. They gave the A.I. group a brain-only writing task and the brain-only group an A.I. writing task. And here's what's so important: the brain-only group still performed better, even when using A.I., and the A.I. group still performed worse, even when given the opportunity to think for themselves. Or should I say, it did worse because they now had to think for themselves.Over the first three brain-only writing assignments, the brain-only students built their brains for the task, and they built mental frameworks (read: habits) to rely on when engaging those tasks. Thus, that they then “gained” an A.I. assistant did not suddenly degrade all of the wiring that their brains built. But the A.I. group, when suddenly given the opportunity for a brain-only task, not only had built no wiring for accomplishing that task, it also, and this is the most critical part, created wiring and mental frameworks for using A.I. instead.What that means in a nutshell, and these are my words not those of the study, is that the brain-only group got smarter and the A.I. group not only failed to become smarter, they got dumbed down—they became habituated to relying on A.I. Thus, when given the opportunity to do so, they were incapable of thinking as well as the brain-only participants did.All of that should be concerning enough, but there's more. In addition to the direct cognitive effects, the researchers also found that brain-only participants “demonstrated higher memory recall” and engagement of thinking-related brain areas compared to the A.I group. Meanwhile, compared to the brain-only group, the A.I. participants reported lower “ownership of their essay,” which is an educator's way of saying that they didn't care about it as much and did not feel as though it was their own.Thus, to sum it all up, A.I.-assisted writing made the kids perform poorly, made them dumber, and made them less invested in their own thinking and writing.What to doIn light of this study, one school of “thought” could be that since everyone is going to rely on A.I. in the future anyway, kids who do so will be no worse off than their peers, and using A.I. might free up time for them to do things that are more valuable than writing essays, which, again, they won't really ever need to write on their own anyway because A.I. will be there to “assist.” Those who subscribe to that position probably should stop following me here at Actual Intelligence right now as we will be rather inclined to disagree.The other school of thought is that thinking skills, such as those developed through writing, which research repeatedly shows is the best way to teach critical thinking, are far more important than any and all expediencies achieved through A.I. assistance. Let me rephrase that: If you want your kids to build their brains rather than have them degenerate into relatively useless gelatin that can only write A.I. prompts or order burrito online, then keep their brains as far from A.I. as possible.Obviously, there's not much that you can do with your college-aged kids other than share this information with them and hope they make the right decisions. But for kids still under your roof, there are things you can do:1. Share this information with them. Most kids don't want to become dumber; they do value their ability to think. So, take time to explain, and then reinforce, the consequences of A.I. In fact, start thinking of A.I. as something about which you need to begin messaging no differently than alcohol, drugs, and sex.2. Ask them how they use A.I. Understand their current relationship with A.I., and please keep in mind that the MIT study does not speak to other ways that students might interact with A.I. beyond this one context. Using A.I. in other ways might be more or less consequential.3. Check their work: There are plenty of sites out there that scan essays to see if they were written by A.I. Those sites are not perfectly reliable, but they might offer useful information about what your kid is up to.4. If you want to get serious, have your kids download all their source materials before writing, then shut of their internet while they write. Take away the temptation; make them use their brains.ConclusionThe implications of A.I.-based “thinking” work are becoming clear, but for anyone who has thought about it or who values thinking, they're also not surprising. Every time we use A.I. to “assist” our thinking, it not only prevents us from thinking, it degrades our capacity to think in the future.Worse—much, much worse—is that those of you reading this built your brains before A.I. existed, which means that even if you gravitate to using A.I. now (please don't), you've got a lot of “muscle” built up to abate its consequences. A.I. will still degrade your thinking, but those sound neural pathways you built up all your life won't all turn to jelly overnight.But for your kids, it's different. Their neural pathways are still in the process of building up for the first time. Even though we are all always rewriting our brains, kids' brains have not even fully developed, so whatever they habituate to will become hardwired moving forward. Consequently, kids who are raised as A.I. natives might never develop their brains for thinking in the same way yours did. And that will not only affect their lives, but a generation of lesser-thinkers will affect all our lives.But there's good news! Somewhere down the line, kids who actually learn to think for themselves will stand out against the emerging generation who might not. So, if you can raise your own child to think critically, they might just be among the few who lead the world to a better place.And that, once again, is why actual intelligence is so important.
