Plato's cave is no longer a place of ignorance but a nervous system organized around familiarity. The chains are early attachment imprints; the shadows are trauma-bonded patterns mistaken for love. Neural biology prioritizes prediction over truth, so the brain confuses recognition with safety and repetition with intimacy. Attachment wounds project onto partners, turning chemistry into reenactment and connection into regulation. Leaving the cave is not acquiring insight but tolerating the collapse of familiar neural patterns long enough for presence to emerge. Those who see threaten the system because truth deregulates the known. Liberation in love occurs when the nervous system relinquishes pattern for presence.
In this episode of Raising Wild Hearts, Ryann Watkin sits down with chiropractor and nervous system educator Dr. Kristina Guerriero, founder of StillPoint, to explore how true healing happens when the body feels safe.➳ Join Dr. Kristi's Resilience Reset for Free with Code WILDHEARTSVIPTogether, they unpack what neural tension really is, how living in survival mode impacts our emotions, creativity, and physical health, and why slow, subtle nervous system work often creates the deepest and most lasting change. This conversation is especially for overwhelmed moms, recovering perfectionists, and anyone feeling stretched too thin — a grounded reminder that healing doesn't have to be dramatic to be meaningful. Topics we cover:• Nervous system regulation• Neural tension + stress• Healing through safety and stillness• Motherhood, capacity, and overwhelm• Gentle chiropractic & tonal workSupport The Mission:

Our brain, much like our muscles, benefits from its own form of exercise. Through dedicated training and stimulation, we can enhance our cognitive abilities, a testament to the remarkable phenomenon known as ‘neural plasticity'. Neural plasticity is the brain's remarkable ability to adapt and reorganise itself. According to the Foundation for Brain Research, when we encounter a new concept, our brain responds by forging fresh neural connections. With consistent practice, these connections grow stronger and more efficient, leading to improved performance. What is Neural Plasticity? Can Intelligence Be Enhanced? What role does a healthy lifestyle play? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: Can you train your brain like a muscle?

We scrutinise one of the most practical yet under‑examined advances in veterinary practice: AI‑based radiology interpretation tools. I sit down with veterinary radiologist and Vedi entrepreneur Dr Steve Joslyn to unpack the rise of AI-powered radiology tools in general practice. But this isn't just opinion: Steve reveals the findings from his team's recent study that put 6 commercially available AI radiology softwares in the spotlight - or up on the light box - to assess whether they deliver on what they promise. From how these systems are trained, to where they shine (and where they fail), this conversation gives a no-nonsense look at what AI can actually do for your diagnostic imaging workflow. What You'll Learn:How these tools are built: Neural networks, down-sampling, and the truth behind “ground truth”.The data dilemma: Why most AI tools perform best in theory, not in general practice.Where they fall short: From image quality issues to breed bias and external validation gaps.New accuracy data: Insights from Dr Joslyn's pilot study comparing six commercial AI tools.A decision-making playbook: When to trust AI, when to double-check, and when to avoid it entirely.Ethics and workflow impact: Who's responsible? What do you tell clients? Can AI triage be trusted?How to stay future-ready: What's coming next – and how to adapt without compromising care.

Send us a textEver pushed yourself to work through illness or stayed late just to be present at work and be seen? Your brain might be paying a devastating price.Presenteeism, means showing up physically but functioning below capacity due to illness, injury, or simply staying longer than necessary. This costs UK businesses a staggering £100 billion annually. Yet unlike absenteeism, it remains largely unmeasured and unaddressed in most organisations.The neuroscience reveals why this matters so deeply. When we work while unwell, our brains operate in conflict, diverting precious cognitive resources to manage pain or stress before productive work even begins. The anterior cingulate cortex, which processes both physical and social pain, lights up when we fear letting colleagues down—driving us to show up when we shouldn't. Meanwhile, receiving praise for "pushing through" triggers dopamine rewards that reinforce this harmful pattern.Most alarmingly, chronic presenteeism physically changes your brain. The hippocampus can actually shrink under prolonged stress, affecting memory and learning capacity. Neural connectivity in the prefrontal cortex weakens, reducing judgment, concentration, and emotional regulation. What many attribute to "just getting older" might actually be the cumulative effect of insufficient recovery.The good news? Our brains possess remarkable neuroplasticity. By prioritising psychological safety, resilience training, and supportive policies, organisations can combat presenteeism while enhancing performance. Leaders play a crucial role by modelling healthy boundaries and creating cultures where wellbeing and productivity coexist rather than compete.Ready to transform how you think about rest and recovery?

Worry seems like something most people do from time to time, but for some people, severe worry can become an overwhelming sensation, and for older adults later in life, severe worry has been associated with an increased risk of stroke and coronary heart disease. Carmen Andreescu is a professor of psychiatry and bioengineering at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. She says mild worry is useful evolutionarily, to help us make plans or adapt behavior.Read the full study here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41386-025-02193-1 Hosted on Acast.

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.

On today's page, Zevachim 37, the rabbis teach that Torah can be shaped by both how it's written and how it's heard. Modern brain science agrees, showing that reading silently still lights up the mind's acoustic pathways. What happens when ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience harmonize? Listen and find out.
In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John talks about the struggles singers face when returning to their voice after time away, whether from the pandemic, health issues, or life changes. He explains why the voice can feel weak or uncoordinated after too much time off and how neuroplasticity, consistency, and self-compassion can help singers rebuild. Your voice isn't gone, it just needs time and care to find its way back. Episode highlights: Neural pathways for singing do not disappear; they just need to be reawakened through consistent practice. Start small, stay patient, and track your progress to build momentum and confidence. Approach your return with curiosity and forgiveness, not judgment. Your voice is resilient.

While Artificial Intelligence seems to have just popped up when OpenAI brought ChatGPT to the consumer market it has its roots in the mids of the 20th century. But what is it that all of a sudden made it into every conversation we seem to have?Thomas Natschlaeger, Principal Data Scientist at Dynatrace, who has been working in the AI and Machine Learning space for the past 30 years gives us a brief historical overview and describes the critical evolutionary steps and compelling events in that technology that made it to what it is today. Tune in and hear about how AIs are trained, how they are optimized and most importantly: how their outputs can be tested and validated!In our conversation we discuss current trends towards small language models that will help model digital twins of our existing roles and how AIs are used to Validate other AIs like we humans do when a senior engineer does pair programming with a junior and with that provides essential feedback on current accuracy and input to improve the outcome of future tasks.Links we discussedLinkedIn Profile from Thomas: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-natschlaeger/Ask Me Anything Session on Davis CoPilot: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/grabnerandi_llm-copilot-activity-7373837743971393536-QgxV?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAABLhVQBbh8Jkn_K8din5tsQlMCpXRNzlKUVoxxed Conference Talk: https://amsterdam.voxxeddays.com/talk/?id=39801Attention is all you need paper: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention_Is_All_You_Need
This week Mike Burke is back and joins Elizabeth for discussion about the neuroscience of polarized attitudes. A recent article suggests that regardless of which side of the political aisle we inhabit, those with more extreme views may experience similar neural activity and physiological responses to the same political content and emotionally charged language. Research participants who self-identified on the most extreme ends of the ideological spectrum exhibited the most so-called "neural synchrony effects." Mike and Elizabeth talk about the implications of these similarities as well as other examples of what is often called the horseshoe theory, which suggests that those at the far ends of the political spectrum may view the world through a shared lens and that their behaviors and strategies are nearly indistinguishable. Mike describes his relevant article in which he argues that too often "those who claim to be the defenders of Western civilisation seem not to notice that they are the ones burning it down from within." Podcast notesTopic article: de Bruin, D., & FeldmanHall, O. (2025). Politically extreme individuals exhibit similar neural processing despite ideological differences.

This week on Schauer Thoughts we're discussing cognitive labor: what it is and isn't, situations you use it in, and how to tell when someone is using you for your cognitive labor via thought-terminating cliches! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the discussion. Also, I do want to apologize for how disorganized this episode is, I forgot to take my ADHD medication that day and I was really struggling to order my thoughts. I have also received some feedback that my podcast is unpolished and a bit of a “burden” and I completely understand the intention behind those comments. I really do appreciate feedback and I feel so bad that this is the episode going out with those comments in mind. I have ordered a couple books on how to polish your research, I'm currently reading Polish Your Academic Writing by Helen Coleman and I also signed up for a *free* seven week online course on scientific communication. (If you'd also like to take the class here's a link: https://sciencecommunicationlab.org/research-skills/presentation-on-science/ - you don't have to, it's just to share!) It will take me a few weeks for you all to see these new skills in the podcast, so thank you for your patience and hopefully you see that effort payoff soon. I am talking about neuroscience and more technical things but I want to do so in a way that's more easily understood and accessible so I am working on that! I do genuinely want to share what I'm learning and while I love research I love connecting with my audience more and that's not really possible if I don't make more of an active effort to structure and translate concepts in a more accessible way. I promise I am working on it, I deeply appreciate the feedback. There will be a part two to this episode and I am making sure that it's more cohesive, organized, and delivered in a more accessible way!

At just 16, Os Aponte was running a martial arts school in Puerto Rico with over a hundred students. Today, he's a U.S. Army veteran, author, and strength coach known for blending martial arts discipline, neuroscience, and movement mastery into a philosophy of lifelong fitness.In this conversation, Os shares how leading soldiers in the Army shaped his approach to strength, why “less is more” in training, and how neural efficiency—not just muscle size—creates real, lasting power. You'll also hear how kettlebells, gait mechanics, and breathwork can rewire your body for performance at any age.Whether you're a coach, athlete, or weekend mover, Os's story will challenge how you think about fitness and inspire you to see training as a lifelong pursuit of self-mastery.We discuss:How Os became a martial arts instructor at 16What the military taught him about leadership and physical masteryThe difference between strength, conditioning, and fitnessWhy neurological training beats burnoutThe power of the Turkish get-up and “leaving one in the tank”How to make your fitness serve your life—not the other way around
This week's episode is all about Reading. We will go through the entire process from the moment light hits the retina (50-100ms) to formulating speech (600ms or so). That is, either speaking out loud or silently speaking while reading, a phenomena called subvocalization. We do this when reading to the self. Either way, we speak while reading.We will compare so called normal readers, the Autistic phenotype, and dyslexia, and at times the odd contrasts of the Autistic phenotype AND dyslexia. Lots of neurobiology, measurement instruments, brain waves (oscillations, frequencies), however, I will hopefully provide easy to understand analogies.The entire reading process is covered.Daylight Computer Companyuse "autism" for $50 off athttps://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devicesuse "autism" for 10% discount athttps://getchroma.co/?ref=autismCognity AI for Autistic Social Skillsuse "autism" for 10% discount athttps://thecognity.com00:00 - Overview of reading process and neurobiology03:28 - Visual processing in V1 (primary visual cortex), V2-V4 (secondary visual cortex)4:42 - Neuroplasticity of Blind using V1-V4 for Braille07:17 - Neural oscillations (Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Gamma)10:07 - Visual word form area (VWFA) recognizes patterns, begins sequencing letters & recognizes the word, Example: "d-o-g" & 'd' not 'b', 'o' not 'c,' 'g' not 'p.'13:01 - Phonological processing in temporal-parietal cortex15:54 - Fractional anisotropy (FA) & Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) and arcuate fasciculus; Myelination, Water Flow, Garden Hose example18:06 - Detailed discussion of orthographic processing begins (VWFA's role in recognizing visual word forms)21:26 - Detailed discussion of cerebellum's role in eye movements begins (Purkinje cells and saccades)24:07 - Detailed discussion of spelling difficulties begins (orthographic processing challenges in autism/dyslexia)27:41 - Detailed discussion of semantic integration begins (delays in dyslexia, inferior frontal gyrus)30:55 - Detailed discussion of orthographic confusion begins (e.g., "except" vs. "expert")33:30 - Detailed discussion of phonological processing begins (temporal-parietal cortex mapping words to sounds)34:18 - Cerebellum mentioned regarding tongue movements (Purkinje cells refine timing for speech)36:10 - Subvocalization in silent reading37:07 - Oscillations in VWFA for autistic phenotype; Comprehension lags in Autism due to delayed N40039:19 Daylight Computer Company (and Daylight Kids !), use "autism" for $50 discount41:40 Chroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount44:52 Reviews/Ratings, Contact InfoX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com
I did an interview with Scott Stein at Meta Connect 2025 reflecting on the biggest news of the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses and the associated Neural Band. Stein has been covering the XR industry since 2012, and always has some deep thoughts on the broader implications of the latest news. You can check out his hands-on first impressions in his CNET video here, and his interview with Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth here. Stein and I had a chance to catch up after the day 1 Meta Connect keynote announcements, and also speculate on the future of the ecosystem in around the Meta Ray-Ban Display Glasses. The Meta Wearables Device Access Toolkit wasn't announced until the following day at the end of the developer keynote at Meta Connect, but there still hasn't been any announcement about if or when third-party developers will get access to develop apps for it as Meta seems content to focus on their own first-party apps at the launch of the device today.

I did an interview with Michael Markman at Meta Connect 2025 talking about all of the latest updates to the VR design and prototyping tool of ShapesXR, and then we start to dive into some of his hot takes after getting a chance to try out the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses and associated Neural Band. He sees that the neural band is essentially transforming your hand into a mouse that is providing a simplified navigation system (probably closer to a D-pad on a TV remote), but the index-finger-to-thumb serves as a functional left click and middle-finger-to-thumb serves as a functional right click, which has been enough to build the foundation of most modern HCI for computer software for the last 57 years since The Mother of All Demos debuted the mouse in 1968.

In this episode, ARK's Brett Winton, Charles Roberts and Frank Downing sit down with Stephen Balaban, CEO and co-founder of Lambda Labs — a company building AI-specific cloud infrastructure. The conversation explores Lambda's role in the AI value chain, the evolving economics of data centers, and why traditional hyperscalers might be too slow to meet the moment.Stephen explains why he believes we're transitioning from deterministic, rule-based software to what he calls “neural software” — stochastic, neural network-driven systems that will eventually replace nearly all traditional software. He shares Lambda's mission to enable this transformation by rapidly deploying GPU infrastructure and supporting the AI research and application build-out happening today.The discussion spans infrastructure strategy, regulatory bottlenecks, AI safety, energy constraints, and long-term visions of neural operating systems. Stephen offers a bold perspective on the hardware demands and philosophical shifts required to usher in a world where software is generated, not written.Key Points From This Episode:00:01:21 How Lambda positions itself as a “neo-cloud” provider competing with AWS, Azure, and GCP for AI workloads.00:02:46 Why ARK estimates $1.5 trillion in annual AI-related data center investment by 2030 and what it could mean for Lambda.00:05:26 Why hyperscalers may be too slow to meet the unique demands of AI training compared to specialized players.00:06:29 How AI infrastructure requires new rack designs, higher power density, and different utilization patterns.00:09:20 Why AI may disrupt the entire computing stack—from Nvidia overtaking Intel to reshaping platform and cloud services.00:14:50 Stephen explains Lambda's “secret mission” to replace all traditional software with neural networks.00:16:36 Why companies trust Lambda to deploy GPU infrastructure faster and more reliably than incumbents.00:20:27 How the concept of a “neural operating system” reframes software as stochastic rather than deterministic.00:23:04 How hallucinations in neural systems could be managed with checks and balances similar to financial approvals.00:25:04 Why Stephen sees AI safety and alignment as the cybersecurity of the future.00:39:00 How real-time AI tasks may run locally at the edge, while deeper reasoning gets pushed to the cloud.00:44:11 Why running modern large language models still resembles the supercomputer era rather than the PC era.00:46:06 How Stephen views the long-term convergence of AI with quantum computing and brain–computer interfaces.00:50:20 Why scaling AI requires the “heroic effort” of Nvidia, TSMC, OpenAI, energy providers, and Lambda together.00:53:43 Back-of-the-envelope math on CapEx per megawatt—from power plants and data centers to GPUs.00:57:11 Why power infrastructure and deregulation could become the biggest stumbling blocks for AI growth.01:02:02 How software creation is shifting from a labor-driven process to a capital-intensive one.01:06:06 Why Stephen and Brett describe data centers as “AI factories” producing custom neural software.

Ann Kennedy is Associate Professor at Scripps Research Institute and runs the Laboratory for Theoretical Neuroscience and Behavior. Among other things, Ann has been studying how processes important in life, like survival, threat response, motivation, and pain, are mediated through subcortical brain areas like the hypothalamus. She also pays attention to the time course those life processes require, which has led her to consider how the expression of things like proteins help shape neural processes throughout the brain, so we can behave appropriately in those different contexts. You'll hear us talk about how this is still a pretty open field in theoretical neuroscience, unlike the historically heavy use of theory in popular brain areas throughout the cortex, and the historically narrow focus on spikes or action potentials as the only game in town when it comes to neural computation. We discuss that and I link in the show notes to a commentary piece Ann wrote, in which she argues for both top-down and bottom-up theoretical approaches. I also link to her papers about the early evolution of nervous systems, how heterogeneity or diversity of neurons is an advantage for neural computations, and we discuss a kaggle competition she developed to benchmark automated behavioral labels of behaving organisms, so that despite different researchers using different recording systems and setups, analyzing those data will produce consistent labels to better compare across labs and aggregated bigger and better data sets.
