Vision Weekend France: Neuotech Panel
Manage episode 400096812 series 2943147
Panellists: Anders Sandberg, Bradley Love, Robin Hanson, Brett Kagan
Recorded at Vision Weekend France 2023.
Key Highlights
- The panel explored how brain emulation is increasingly becoming a viable possibility with technological advancements.
- They discussed the availability of tools that help understand the neurochemistry and biology of cells, which is crucial for brain emulation. For example, the use of expansion microscopy for imaging neurons on a larger scale was highlighted, showcasing its importance in brain emulation research.
- However, they also note that the mapping efforts required for brain emulation are proving to be more complex than initially anticipated.
- It was emphasized that there is a critical need for collaboration between biologists and computer scientists in advancing brain emulation research.
- They explored the potential of using neurons as an engineering resource to create intelligent devices.
- The panel concluded that achieving smaller milestones is crucial before envisioning the broader potential of brain emulation technology.
About Foresight Institute
Foresight Institute is a research organization and non-profit that supports the beneficial development of high-impact technologies. Since our founding in 1987 on a vision of guiding powerful technologies, we have continued to evolve into a many-armed organization that focuses on several fields of science and technology that are too ambitious for legacy institutions to support.
Allison Duettmann
The President and CEO of Foresight Institute, Allison Duettmann directs the Intelligent Cooperation, Molecular Machines, Biotech & Health Extension, Neurotech, and Space Programs, alongside Fellowships, Prizes, and Tech Trees. She has also been pivotal in co-initiating the Longevity Prize, pioneering initiatives like Existentialhope.com, and contributing to notable works like "Superintelligence: Coordination & Strategy" and "Gaming the Future".
