    #126 Noam Chomsky: Decoding the Human Mind & Neural Nets

    Welcome to episode #126 of Eye on AI with Craig Smith and Noam Chomsky.

    Are neural nets the key to understanding the human brain and language acquisition? In this conversation with renowned linguist and cognitive scientist Noam Chomsky, we delve into the limitations of large language models and the ongoing quest to uncover the mysteries of the human mind.

    Together, we explore the historical development of research in this field, from Minsky’s thesis to Jeff Hinton’s goals for understanding the brain. We also discuss the potential harms and benefits of large language models, comparing them to the internal combustion engine and its differences from a gazelle running. We tackle the difficult task of studying the neurophysiology of human cognition and the ethical implications of invasive experiments.

    As we consider language as a natural object, we discuss the works of notable figures such as Albert Einstein, Galileo, Leibniz, and Turing, and the similarities between language and biology.

    We even entertain the possibility of extraterrestrial language and communication. Join us on this thought-provoking journey as we explore the intricacies of language, the brain, and our place in the cosmos.

    Ep.12. Barry Komisaruk: The Scientist of Orgasm

    Ep.12. Barry Komisaruk: The Scientist of Orgasm

    Barry Komisaruk, PhD, pioneered the study of the brain-body connection in orgasm.

    He is the world's leading expert in this domain.

    His work began with animals, progressed to those with spinal cord injuries, and now encompasses women and men of all ages.

    His unique approach to studying orgasm will...blow your mind!

     

    Listen in as he shares the stories that made him a legend in his field with Dr. Marco Pelosi III.

     

    SHOW NOTES

     

    Neuroscience [5:00]

    emerged as a field in the 1960s.

     

    There are [6:45]

    at least 50,000 neuroscientists in the world.

     

    You are known [7:38]

    as The Orgasm Guy on the basis of things you did in your research.

     

    We were [9:45]

    studying brain activity in response to vaginal stimulation first in animals.

     

    Vaginal stimulation [11:15]

    in rats appeared to block pain receptors in the brain, so I had to do a human study.

     

    Surprisingly [13:30]

    women with complete high spinal cord injuries can feel vaginal stimulation.

     

    Functional MRI [14:45]

    was the best way to study the brain response in this situation and some women had orgasms.

     

    Nobody [15:30]

    knows where orgasm occurs in the brain so that led me to study healthy women under MRI.

     

    LEEP [17:00]

    procedures can cause loss of sensation throughout the body.

     

    I have [20:30]

    an animal lab and a human lab.

     

    I recruit [23:20]

    study subjects by word of mouth.

     

    Persistent [26:45]

    genital arousal disorder is caused by pressure from discs, etc.

     

    Others [27:45]

    develop genital numbness preceded by a period of hypersensitivity treatable with spinal surgery.

     

    What [29:00]

    prompted you to write your first book?

     

    To get [33:00]

    funded by the NIH, I couldn’t use the word vagina.

     

    The media [35:00]

    has interviewed you extensively.

     

    I grew [36:00]

    up in the Bronx.

     

    A few [37:00]

    crystals of estrogen placed in the brain of a rat turned on sexual behavior.

     

    Aside [38:45]

    from a group in Holland nobody else is doing neurological orgasm brain activity research.

     

    A typical [40:15]

    MRI session for this study takes two hours.

     

    I have [42:00]

    two sons both in education.

    The Science Behind Chiropractic: Live at FCA’s The National | Episode 73

    Heidi Haavik, DC, PhD, is a chiropractor from New Zealand who got her doctoral degree in human neurophysiology to understand more about how and why chiropractic works. Recorded live at the Florida Chiropractic Association (FCA) annual event The National in Orlando, Florida, WholisticMatters Podcast Series host John P. Troup, PhD, talks with Dr. Haavik, who is an award-winning author, scientist, and clinician. Interestingly, Dr. Haavik’s great grandfather on her mother’s side was one of the first one thousand chiropractors to graduate from the Palmer College for Chiropractic. She is also the author of New York Times best seller “The Reality Check” that discusses the benefits of chiropractic.

    Dr. Puentedura discussed his research into spinal manipulation, particularly in the cervical spine. He talked about his preliminary studies into a clinical prediction rule for manipulation of the cervical spine. We also talked about the importance of pain science education utilizing the biopsychosocial approach in accordance with manual therapy and exercise. Dr. Puentedura stressed the […]

    Episode 18: Where Love Begins: In the Brain

    Lucy Brown, a neuroscientist at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine, has studied romantic love using functional magnetic resonance imaging. Dr. Brown will talk about her studies on what happens in our brains at different stages of love: falling in love, being rejected by a lover, and longterm love. 

    Obstructive sleep apnea is the most commonly diagnosed condition among sleep-related breathing disorders and can lead to debilitating and sometimes fatal consequences for the 18 million Americans who have been diagnosed with the disorder.
