Send us a textHow brains compute and learn, blending neuroscience with AI insights.Episode Summary: Dr. Marius Pachitariu discusses how the brain computes information across scales, from single neurons to complex networks, using mice to study visual learning. He explains the differences between supervised and unsupervised learning, the brain's high-dimensional processing, and how it compares to artificial neural networks like large language models. The conversation also covers experimental techniques, such as calcium imaging, and the role of reward prediction errors in learning.About the guest: Marius Pachitariu, PhD is a group leader at the Janelia Research Campus, leading a lab focused on neuroscience with a blend of experimental and computational approaches.Discussion Points:The brain operates at multiple scales, with single neurons acting as computational units and networks creating complex, high-dimensional computations.Pachitariu's lab uses advanced tools like calcium imaging to record from tens of thousands of neurons simultaneously in mice.Unsupervised learning allows mice to form visual memories of environments without rewards, speeding up task learning later.Brain activity during sleep or anesthesia is highly correlated, unlike the high-dimensional, less predictable patterns during wakefulness.The brain expands sensory input dimensionality (e.g., from retina to visual cortex) to simplify complex computations, a principle also seen in artificial neural networks.Reward prediction errors, driven by dopamine, signal when expectations are violated, aiding learning by updating internal models.Large language models rely on self-supervised learning, predicting next words, but lack the forward-modeling reasoning humans excel at.Related episode:M&M 44: Consciousness, Perception, Hallucinations, Selfhood, Neuroscience, Psychedelics & "Being You" | Anil Seth*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Today we will discuss two murders that occur on the Isle of Man in 2002. This tiny island seemed to be overwhelmed with youthful offenders and not enough successful strategies to regain control of the delinquent minors. No matter the offensive behaviors, 16-year-old Samantha Barton and her best friend, 16-year-old George Green did not deserve the brutally they endured at the hands of 21-year old Peter Newbery. Listen to today's episode to hear about the tragic deaths of these two youths and how their families have to relive their brutal deaths every two years to keep this murderer behind bars.

Judge's Fatal Decision - Why Travis Decker Got Unsupervised Visits Despite Living in His Car Description: The Travis Decker case reveals one of the most catastrophic family court failures in recent history. Despite being homeless and living in his car, Travis Decker was granted unsupervised custody visits with his three young daughters - a decision that ultimately led to their brutal murders. In this explosive analysis, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers host Tony Brueski to expose the judicial negligence that cost Olivia, Evelyn, and Paityn Decker their lives. Court documents reveal that Travis Decker was homeless, mentally ill, and exhibiting dangerous behaviors, yet family court judges continued to prioritize his parental rights over child safety. Our expert examination reveals how the family court system systematically failed to protect three innocent children from a father who showed multiple warning signs of being a danger to his own family. We break down the specific judicial decisions that enabled this tragedy, analyzing how custody evaluators missed critical red flags and why mental health professionals' concerns were dismissed. The case exposes fundamental flaws in how family courts handle cases involving mentally ill, homeless parents with documented instability. Shavaun Scott provides crucial psychological insights into how judges and court officials failed to recognize the escalating risk factors that preceded this familicide. This in-depth investigation examines the custody timeline, the specific warnings that were ignored, and the systemic changes needed to prevent similar tragedies. We explore how "father's rights" advocacy can override child protection when courts fail to properly assess parental fitness and safety risks. The Travis Decker case serves as a devastating example of what happens when family courts prioritize parental access over child welfare and safety assessments. Join us for this critical analysis of judicial accountability and the urgent reforms needed to protect children from dangerous parents who manipulate the family court system. #TravisDecker #FamilyCourt #JudicialFailure #ChildProtection #CustodyMurder #MentalHealth #Homeless #TrueCrime #SystemFailure #HiddenKillers YouTube Tags: Travis Decker, family court failure, judicial negligence, custody murder, homeless parent, mental health, child protection, familicide, true crime, judicial accountability, parental rights, child safety, court system, custody evaluation, Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski, Shavaun Scott, Washington state, family court reform, domestic violence Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, Niall asks: Should learner drivers be allowed to drive unaccompanied? The debate heats up after Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe suggested that current rules — which require learners to be accompanied by a fully licensed driver — are too restrictive, especially for students and young people living in rural areas.Supporters of relaxing the law say it's a practical move. In rural Ireland, public transport is limited, and many young people are left stranded or dependent on others for the simplest tasks — from getting to work, to attending college, or even visiting the GP. They argue that responsible learner drivers, especially those with some experience or awaiting a delayed test, should be trusted to drive alone under certain conditions.On the other hand, critics warn that relaxing the law could be dangerous. They argue that L-plate drivers lack the experience and judgment to drive solo, and the current system exists for a reason — to protect everyone on the road. Some callers highlight the increase in road deaths and say safety should come before convenience. If learners want independence, they say, they should wait until they pass the test.This episode weighs freedom against responsibility and rural need against national safety. Where do you stand?

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become a dominant architecture in modern AI deployments, and in this episode, we sit down with Douwe Kiela, who co-authored the original RAG paper in 2020. Douwe is now the founder and CEO of Contextual AI, a startup focusing on helping enterprises deploy RAG as an agentic system. We start the conversation with Douwe's thoughts on the very latest advancements in Generative AI, including GPT 4.5, DeepSeek and the exciting paradigm shift towards test time compute, as well as the US-China rivalry in AI. We then dive into RAG: definition, origin story and core architecture. Douwe explains the evolution of RAG into RAG 2.0 and Agentic RAG, emphasizing the importance of self-learning systems over individual models and the role of synthetic data. We close with the challenges and opportunities of deploying AI in real-world enterprise, discussing the balance between accuracy and the inherent inaccuracies of AI systems.Contextual AIWebsite - https://contextual.aiX/Twitter - https://x.com/ContextualAIDouwe KielaLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/douwekielaX/Twitter - https://x.com/douwekielaFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) Intro(01:57) Thoughts on the latest AI models: GPT-4.5, Sonnet 3.7, Grok 3(04:50) The test time compute paradigm shift(06:47) Unsupervised learning vs reasoning: a false dichotomy(07:30) The significance of DeepSeek(10:29) USA vs. China: is the AI war overblown?(12:19) Controlling AI hallucinations at the model level(13:51) RAG: definition and origin story(18:46) Why the Transformers paper initially felt underwhelming(20:41) The core architecture of RAG(26:06) RAG vs. fine-tuning vs. long context windows(30:53) RAG 2.0: Thinking in systems and not models(31:28) Data extraction and data curation for RAG(35:59) Contextual Language Models (CLMs)(38:04) Finetuning and alignment techniques: GRIT, KTO, LENS(40:40) Agentic RAG(41:36) General vs. specialized RAG agents(44:35) Synthetic data in AI(45:51) Deploying AI in the enterprise(48:07) How tolerant are enterprises to AI hallucinations?(49:35) The future of Contextual AI

*NOTE:The following interviews contain descriptions that some listeners may find disturbing.* Just before Christmas, 11-year-old Kamara White was on her lunch break in a classroom at Sprucewood Academy in Grand Falls-Windsor. Some of the grade six students in the room decided to play a physical game while the teacher was not present. As things got rougher, Kamara fell and ended up having the tops of two of her fingers severed. The CBC's Leigh Anne Power spoke with Kamara, as well as Kamara's mom, Annette.
In her second appearance on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Linda Flanagan, author of Take Back the Game, dives into the critical topic of giving kids the freedom they need to grow. Linda and Ginny Yurich discuss how the pressures of modern youth sports and adult-driven parenting can unintentionally rob children of the unsupervised time essential for creativity, confidence, and resilience. They explore how this over-structured lifestyle impacts not only kids but entire families, often presenting adulthood as a joyless grind instead of a vibrant destination. This thought-provoking episode invites parents to step back and reconsider what truly matters. With actionable advice, Linda highlights the benefits of unsupervised play, reconnecting with nature, and cultivating family moments that aren't dictated by sports schedules. A must-listen for those looking to embrace a freer, more balanced approach to childhood and parenting. ** Get your copy of Take Back the Game here Learn more about Linda here Get information about Linda's new documentary coming soon here ** Download your free 1000 Hours Outside tracker here >> https://www.1000hoursoutside.com/trackers Find everything you need to kick off your 1000 Hours Outside Journey here >> https://www.1000hoursoutside.com/blog/allthethings Order of copy of Ginny's newest book, Until the Streetlights Come On here >> https://amzn.to/3RXjBlN Learn more about your ad choices.

We laid low, but now we're back, and you'll be happy as a scarecrow listening to our so-long episode finishing up John Flansburgh's debut album Unsupervised from his supergroup Mono Puff! Who'll teach you all about the history of Dr. Kildare (the man, the show, the song)? We will! I can read your mind, you want us to then discuss the quiet resentment of So Long, Mockingbird, correct? I don't mind! Because you've been so good all year long, we're going to fulfill your one Christmas wish and unwrap Careless Santa! What's perfect these days? How about our discussion of Don't I Have The Right?, featuring an interview with singer Nancy Lynn Howell!? The only thing we ask is that you trust us, as we naively march along with To Serve Mankind, and peruse the Twilight Zone episode that inspired the song! When you look back and weigh everything we've done, you will realize this episode can only end with a secret oval office recording of our confidential discussion of Nixon's The One! If you leave us we'll be destroyed, so press play NOW! Join us on Patreon!: patreon.com/dontletsstartpodcast --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dontletsstart/support

Why are we seeing such a rise in youth mental health diagnosis? How do we relativise this against the rise in mental health awareness? What's the best approach for parents seeking solutions? How can social-connection and loneliness completely change trauma integration? What role does the recent explosion of persuasive technologies in young peoples lives play in the changing situation? In this episode we have the important topic of Youth Mental Health to get ourselves up to date on. Today we're going to try and unravel these often divisary issues in a balanced way; we're going to be discussing the importance of threat and safety to a child's state of mind as they develop; the power of the parent or carer's own unresolved issues to transmit to young people, creating symptoms in the child; the importance of going to the root of the problem rather than just treating symptoms; the role of escapism as an emotional avoidance strategy, and how digital platforms and device providers have taken advantage of that tendency, and the parenting strategies to guide this; and we're going to discuss the role of shame in us avoiding facing these issues. Fortunately, considering the nuanced and potentially triggering topic of the mental well being of the children we parent and teach, today's guest has just released the paper back version of his new book on exactly this topic, “How the world is making our children mad and what to do about it”. As a hugely experienced child psychotherapist and founder of the charity “Apart of Me” that supports children to transform their loss into compassion, he is perfectly placed to give us un update on this, and is filled with excellent stories and advice to help us face it. He is of course Louis Weinstock, a transpersonal psychotherapist and mindfulness specialist, who has worked with a wide range of sufferers from the criminal justice system, to drug addicts, to homeless people, to troubled teens and their parents. What we discuss: 00:00 Intro. 09:00 Our mental life is inseparable from our environment. 11:45 ‘Fetal programming' is applied in utero by the mother's environment. 14:10 Improvements in kid's mental health, simply from parents doing the work. 18:45 Children having behaviour issues at the same age as their parent's had trauma. 21:20 The evolutionary history of shame. 25:40 The difference between shame and guilt. 28:00 Rupture & repair: conflict in relationships is bearable and repairable. 29:25 Is psychotherapy worth it for kids, considering the stigma? 34:15 Mental health awareness can exaggerate our negative view of ourselves. 38:30 Massive jump in recent stats on youth mental health. 41:00 ‘Roots' of mental health issues and ‘fruits' we can learn from them. 45:20 Suffering and transformation: post-traumatic growth. 49:50 Escaping into virtual realities: Dissociation. 53:00 The ‘freeze' response - shutting the body down. 01:00:40 Resilience explained - fragile vs anti fragile. 01:04:00 The connection between loneliness and trauma. 01:05:25 Youth mental health and device/internet addiction. 01:07:25 ‘Variable reward' strategy taken from gambling slot machines. 01:12:30 Clear differences in kid's moods and sleep after too long on devices. 01:14:20 Parenting solutions to regulating screen time peacefully. 01:16:40 No devices in the bedroom, particularly in the evenings before bed. 01:20:30 Awareness: they're capable of reflecting on their behaviour. 01:24:20 Unsupervised play outside and in nature. 01:25:40 The world is safer rather than less safe than in the past.

Transpower says contractor Omexom is working through its own recommendations after the June pylon topple that caused a power outage in Northland. An Electricity Authority report found bad practice that caused the Transpower tower to topple had probably happened before. Unsupervised, inexperienced maintenance crews from contractor Omexom unfastened three legs at once. Transpower Executive General Manager Mark Ryall told Mike Hosking you do need to be able to train people on the job, otherwise they'll never become competent. But he says a trainee needs to be under direct supervision, and in this case they weren't adequately supervised. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I hear the phone ring, and it's John Flansburgh's solo project Mono Puff calling! Back in the day, we were distracted by They Might Be Giants, but now we're hear to sing the praises of this strange yet cohesive collection of side-project gold! Your appreciative hosts Jordan and Dave go into the formation of Mono Puff, the inspiration behind the band name, an investigation into the band members, and ask deep, challenging, philosophical questions like: could these be TMBG songs? We strap on our gig bags and rock out to Guitar Was The Case, then strap on our sad bags as we ponder our mortality during Unsupervised, I Hit My Head. We had a real good time, AND SO WILL YOU!
