In this conversation, Drs. Gaurav Suri and Jay Mcclelland delves into the intricate relationship between artificial intelligence and human cognition, exploring similarities and differences, the evolution of AI from rule-based systems to learning models, and the concept of emergence in both fields. The discussion also touches on the efficiency of human learning compared to AI, the role of consciousness, and the ethical implications of AI technology.Takeaways AI and human intelligence share similarities in neural network frameworks. Artificial systems lack the goal-directed nature inherent in humans. Humans learn more efficiently than current AI systems. Neural networks can adapt to language nuances better than rule-based systems. Emergence explains how collective intelligence arises from individual components. Memory in neural networks is represented through connections, not individual units. Mathematics is both invented and discovered, shaped by human needs. Understanding consciousness is crucial for AI development. Human misuse of AI poses significant risks. Recognizing ourselves as processes can foster empathy and morality.Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Backgrounds 01:00 AI vs Human Mind: Similarities and Differences 03:32 The Shift from Rule-Based AI to Learning Systems 09:07 Emergence in Cognition: Ant Colonies and Intelligence 15:25 Distributed Representations and Memory Storage 23:53 The Nature of Memory and Its Malleability 25:40 Emergence of Mathematical Concepts 29:50 The Invention vs. Discovery Debate in Mathematics 32:19 Learning Mechanisms: Brain vs. AI 36:48 Consciousness: Function and Implications 41:13 AI Risks: Human Misuse vs. AI Autonomy 43:45 Living with Emergence: Understanding Ourselves and Others 48:22 Exploring the Emergent MindFollow Gaurav Suri on LinkedIn.

In this episode, Casey sits down with Ty Nielson and Tim Miller, the entrepreneurial duo behind Ninja Kids, for a candid masterclass on building creator-led experiences with heart, vision, and relentless execution. Fresh off a Tony Robbins immersion, they unpack how state, story, and strategy helped catalyze new habits and higher standards; and why the energy of an aligned community can flip limiting beliefs into bold action.Ty and Tim trace their path from shaping the trampoline park industry to founding Ninja Kids; along the way they learned that it's rarely a lack of resources, but a lack of resourcefulness that holds leaders back. Their time scaling hundreds of locations provided a front-row education in private equity, deal structure, and culture; lessons they'd later use to design on their own terms.They also share the scrappy stories that shaped the brand's creator partnership strategy; from pursuing real estate with nothing but conviction, to a chance introduction that led to the Ninja Kids collaboration and a new growth thesis.

They discuss the challenges of facilitating in corporate environments, the value of addressing fears, and the benefits of working with challenging groups. The conversation emphasizes the need for facilitators to trust their intuition and adapt to the needs of the group, moving away from rigid agendas to a more fluid approach. Rebecca shares insights on how they teach emergent facilitation at AJ&Smart, highlighting the importance of resilience and adaptability in the role of a facilitator.   Emergent facilitation is about adaptability and flow. Unshakeability is crucial for facilitators. Experience helps build resilience in facilitation. Preparation involves both mental and physical readiness. Connecting with participants is essential before diving into content. Addressing fears can shift group energy positively. Challenging groups can lead to greater facilitator growth.

Nick Turley is Head of ChatGPT, the fastest-growing product in history, with 700 million weekly active users (10% of the world's population). He was part of the original hackathon team that shipped ChatGPT in just 10 days, helped it grow from zero to billions in revenue, and leads product for what may be the most consequential product of our time. We recorded this the day before GPT-5 launched.We discuss:1. The 10-day sprint from deciding to ship ChatGPT to Sam Altman's tweet (and why it was originally called “Chat with GPT-3.5”)2. How they ran a willingness-to-pay Van Westendorp survey in their Discord to decide on the $20/month price point that everyone copied3. The “Is it maximally accelerated?” philosophy that drives OpenAI's insane shipping velocity4. Why ChatGPT's retention curve “smiles”—users leave, then come back months later using it more5. The accidental decisions that changed history, including not having a waitlist6. The impact ChatGPT will have on SEO and product growth7.

What's driving the rapid evolution of AI? Where do emergent behaviors come from? In today's episode, Sanjay Krishnan joins us to unpack how modern machine learning models are developing specialized skill sets, solving increasingly complex problems, and adapting in surprising ways to real-world data. Sanjay is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the University of Chicago, where his research group focuses on making data systems more reliable – even when the information they handle is messy or incomplete. In the real world, data is often missing, corrupted, or uncertain, and Sanjay's work aims to help databases and information systems still function accurately under those conditions. Currently, Sanjay and his team are exploring several key challenges. One area of focus is building systems that can still provide accurate answers even when the underlying data is only partially complete. They're also developing ways to measure the trustworthiness of a result when the data has been corrupted. Another project involves automatically detecting when sensitive data may have leaked, helping improve both privacy and security in data systems. This conversation outlines: The natural progression of AI over the past 15 years. Three factors that make AI powerful. The role that human-provided data plays in machine learning.  What AI poisoning is, and how it can be identified.  You can learn more about Sanjay and his research by clicking here!

Moshe's swan song isn't just a list of commandments, it's an attempt to coax a fledgling nation into seeing itself as more than the sum of its parts. We'll look at how his words frame freedom not merely as independence but as an emergent reality that arises when individuals embrace a shared destiny and a common love of God.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, host Dennis interviews Jeff Ory, a recent medical graduate and former infantryman, discussing the critical topic of tension pneumothorax and the techniques for needle decompression. They explore the historical data on tension pneumothorax mortality, the effectiveness of different decompression sites, and the risks associated with the procedure. The conversation also delves into the importance of ongoing training for medics, the debate over who should be trained in needle decompression, and the best practices for chest tube placement. The episode concludes with thoughts on the future of trauma care and the need for continuous improvement in medical training.TakeawaysTension pneumothorax is primarily a blood flow issue, not a respiratory one.The fifth intercostal space is often preferred for needle decompression due to safety and accuracy.Hubbing a needle during decompression poses significant risks.Many patients do not show objective improvement after needle decompression.Training in emergency procedures must be continuous to maintain skills.The placement of chest tubes is debated, with various opinions on the best approach.Most patients with pneumothorax also have other injuries that complicate treatment.Emergency procedures should be simplified for better retention and execution.The risk of injury from needle decompression is a significant concern.Emergent decompression is crucial for patient survival in trauma situations.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Guest01:08 Understanding Tension Pneumothorax07:04 Needle Decompression Techniques and Efficacy12:20 Risks and Complications of Needle Decompression20:03 Training and Skill Retention in Emergency Medicine30:44 Debate on Needle Decompression in Military Training39:04 Chest Tube Placement and Techniques49:22 Conclusion and Future Directions in Trauma CareThank you to Delta Development Team for in part, sponsoring this podcast.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠deltadevteam.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠

Trump has been making some foreign policy moves I didn't entirely expect. He seems determined to get a nuclear deal with Iran. He's been public about his disagreements with Benjamin Netanyahu. He called Vladimir Putin “crazy.” And he keeps talking about wanting his legacy to be that of a peacemaker. So what, at this point, can we say about Trump's foreign policy? What is he trying to do, and how well is it working? If he succeeds, what might his legacy be? Emma Ashford is a senior fellow at the Stimson Center, a foreign policy think tank, and the author of the forthcoming book “First Among Equals.” She comes from a school of thought that's more sympathetic to the “America First” agenda than I typically am. But she's also cleareyed about what is and isn't working and the ways that Trump is an idiosyncratic foreign policy maker who isn't always following an “America First” agenda himself.  Book Recommendations:A Superpower Transformed by Daniel SargentThe Strategy of Denial by Elbridge ColbyA World Safe for Commerce by Dale CopelandThoughts?
