“Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void, but out of chaos; the materials must, in the first place, be afforded: it can give form to dark, shapeless substances, but cannot bring into being the substance itself.”― Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, FrankensteinJoin us here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wearehorrorweeklyTheme by Nicholas Savard L'Herbier

Many Minds
What is memory for?

Many Minds

Everyone loves a good evolutionary puzzle. Why do we have appendices? Why do we dream? Why do we blush? At first glance, memory would not be in this category. It's clearly useful to remember stuff, after all—to know where to find food, to remember your mistakes so you don't repeat them, to recall who's friendly and who's fierce. In fact, though, certain aspects of memory—when you hold them up to the light—turn out to be quite puzzling indeed. My guests today are Dr. Ali Boyle and Dr. Johannes Mahr. Ali is a philosopher at the London School of Economics (LSE); Johannes is a philosopher at York University, in Toronto. Both have written extensively about the functions of memory, and, in particular, about the functions of episodic memory—that capacity for calling up specific events and experiences from our own lives.  Here, Ali, Johannes and I lay out the textbook taxonomy of memory, and discuss how episodic memory has drawn the lion's share of philosophical interest. We pick apart the relationship between episodic memory and another major type of long-term memory, semantic memory. We sketch a range of different accounts of the evolved functions of episodic memory, including Johannes's proposal that episodic memory serves communication and Ali's proposal that it fuels semantic memory. And, finally, we consider what this all means for our understanding of memory in children and in animals. Along the way, we touch on Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory, infantile amnesia, evidential systems in language, imagination, "simulationist" theories of episodic memory, what it feels like to remember, collective memory, the hippocampus, cryptomnesia, and the cow's digestive system as a metaphor for memory.  If you're enjoying Many Minds, you might consider leaving us a rating or review on your platform of choice, or maybe giving us a shout-out on social media.

Idea: A tent-like semi-portable structure for a suburban yard in which you can sunbathe (especially in the winter) and where you can take your indoor cat who wants to go outside. Also: it'd be designed so you can get into the tent and close it while holding the cat against your chest with one hand and without bending over (because if you bent over the cat could squirm away); it would use thick fabric and thick clear greenhouse plastic to keep heat in; it could be tinted to allow you to sunbathe in privacy (possibly even in the nude) and maybe also be used as an outdoor shower; you could maybe connect a "cat tube" to your house so the cat can come and go as they please Chris Barnwood (facebook.com/chris.barnwood instagram.com/chrisbarnwood) Alex Wilson (youtube.com/@thedropoutprofessor instagram.com/thedropoutprofessor Email: alexwilsoncomedy@gmail.com) Wes Allen (facebook.com/wes.allen.264240 instagram.com/wesallencomedy Email: wesallencomedy@gmail.com) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com/creativitywasted x.com/thomaswalma twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetant.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Pourquoi la climatisation est-elle une invention sexiste ?

Choses à Savoir

Play Episode Listen Later Nov 2, 2025 2:17


La climatisation, symbole du confort moderne, cache une histoire étonnamment… sexiste. Ce n'est évidemment pas la machine en elle-même qui l'est, mais la manière dont elle a été conçue et réglée depuis des décennies. Derrière la fraîcheur des bureaux se cache un biais scientifique ancien : la climatisation a été pensée pour les hommes, au détriment du confort — et parfois de la santé — des femmes.Tout remonte aux années 1960, lorsque les normes de climatisation ont été établies pour les bâtiments modernes. Les ingénieurs se basaient alors sur un modèle physiologique unique : un homme de 40 ans, pesant 70 kilos, vêtu d'un costume de bureau. Sa température corporelle, son métabolisme et son niveau d'activité servaient de référence pour calculer la température dite « idéale » — généralement autour de 21 à 22 °C.Problème : le métabolisme féminin est en moyenne 20 à 30 % plus lent que celui des hommes. Cela signifie que les femmes produisent moins de chaleur corporelle, et qu'elles ressentent donc davantage le froid. Des études, dont une très remarquée publiée dans la revue Nature Climate Change en 2015, ont confirmé ce déséquilibre. Les chercheurs de l'Université de Maastricht y démontrent que la température idéale pour la majorité des femmes serait plutôt autour de 24 à 25 °C. Autrement dit, ce qui semble agréable à un homme en chemise peut être glacial pour une collègue en blouse ou en robe légère.Ce biais n'est pas seulement une question de confort : il illustre une inégalité structurelle dans la conception des espaces de travail. Pendant des décennies, les standards techniques — qu'il s'agisse de température, de sièges, de ceintures de sécurité ou même d'outils — ont été définis selon des données masculines. Résultat : dans de nombreux bureaux, les femmes enfilent des gilets, des plaids ou des manteaux en été, pendant que leurs collègues masculins travaillent tranquillement en manches courtes.Les choses commencent toutefois à changer. Certains architectes et ingénieurs repensent aujourd'hui les normes thermiques pour les adapter à la diversité des corps, des vêtements et des usages. La climatisation devient ainsi un symbole du débat sur le genre dans la conception technologique : un rappel que même les inventions les plus neutres en apparence peuvent refléter des biais profondément ancrés.En somme, si la climatisation est considérée comme « sexiste », c'est parce qu'elle illustre parfaitement comment l'homme-type — au sens littéral — a trop longtemps servi de modèle universel.

In the six months between his first appearance on GDIY and this one, we've witnessed some of the biggest breakthroughs in AI history.But those same six months have also deepened the rift between the U.S. and Europe.While most of Silicon Valley's leaders are bowing to President Trump's politics of fear, Reid remains one of the few willing to challenge it — defending freedom of speech in its purest form, not the version sanctioned by power.After co-founding PayPal and LinkedIn, he went on to serve on the boards of dozens of companies including OpenAI until 2023, and Microsoft, where he still sits today.He also advises several governments seeking to understand how AI can be deployed responsibly across society — and even in governance itself.In this episode, Reid shares how to unlock AI's full potential, and how he personally uses it every day : to write, to think, and to challenge his own ideas.A brilliant, grounded mind — far from the radical “tech bros” — driven not by hype, but by a genuine belief in progress.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : “AI is a fantastic enablement of human connection”00:10:05 : Reid's best hacks for daily uses of AI00:20:13 : How to help governments deploy AI in society00:31:24 : What Trump's fear-based government is changing in the US00:49:48 : The vibe-coding revolution and why you should pay attention01:01:53 : Curing cancers with AI?01:06:55 : Why everybody should use AI, even retired people01:13:23 : Start a company with $0 in 2025: what would Reid do01:20:14 : Amazon, Microsoft, Google: who's winning the AI race01:28:17 : “Don't be anxious.

What she finds in the dust and shadows of his abandoned study challenges everything she thought she knew about him. Piece by piece, the truth begins to take shape: a machine built not to serve, but to remember; not to live, but to linger.As the story unfolds, the line between creation and curse grows dangerously thin.

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.
