I am concerned he says it's "googling itself". what the hell does google have to do with it...
why would you intentionally use a misleading term..
and beyond such unimpressive choices, are we looking at a novel brain derived learning algorithm? or just old existing machine learning algorithms that have nothing to do with reverse engineering the brain.
and what's with the arrows and the usb interface and the computer with an S on the screen... it's... bad

Why do I have -2 on my previous comment.... And why did you say "I have absolutely no idea what it is." This is truly amazing. And if you people don't approve of understanding the universe then you might as well choose another profession.

I'm all for figuring things out. that's why I applied my considerable insight into AI to deduce this is at best not the clearest and most honest of presentations. there is no communication of method, merely alleged disconnected result and as mentioned, muddled by a lot of nonsense such as saying it's googling itself.
just look at the title of the video. "googling the brain on a chip". complete nonsense.
this isn't amazing. this is hollywood science. from a b movie.

I understand that it is relatively "Hollywood science," but he is making it palatable to the crowd. He could start explaining long term potentiation and the differences of how the actual program differs in the way it learns, but it depends on the crowd. Is the crowd full of computer scientists/ human physiologists? I don't think so. But still, the notion of a chip learning the letter S is amazing, I don't see how it is not.

im not a scientist, but i suggest first civilizing then start messing with the brain.

How can so many people get this concept wrong? It's about modeling the brain....not putting anything into it.

This is reverse-engineering the brain, not sticking chips into living brains.

...conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it." -----David Rockefeller

Just a sugar coating it to keep you asleep!
Sure, it's great research but it is NOT NEW!

CHECK>>>>Rockefeller Reveals 9/11 FRAUD to Aaron Russo'!!

'The Brain Chip - A Prison For Your Mind'' This is a MUST SEE!!!!
