  • Amazing video presentation. Thanks for sharing those mechanisms on how neurons and or activities are differentiated to have those impressive simplicity to complexity of a human brain.

  • He really loves what he does.

  • If you can make 2 neurons connect like Hibbean learning (stimulating one input neurons dendrite and one output neurons axion at the same time --> so that the input neurons axions synapse made a connection to output neurons dendrite). If input and output signals could directly/indirectly be electrical it would have DIRECT APPLICATIONS IN ROBBOTICS!

  • He uses apple. No need to watch more...

  • boop

  • so, the growing neuron navigates by smelling its way through chemical fields. but how did those fields get there?

  • @F2sT man stupid people like you are the disease of modern times

  • @mysticgeek what the shit are you talking about man!!!?
