Dear Comp-neuro colleagues,

 

I have attached below the title and url of a two-hour video podcast about my life and work developing neural network models of how our brains make our minds, and applying them to solve large-scale problems in engineering, technology, and AI.

 

The podcast discussion is wide-ranging, including:

 

How I came to introduce neural networks in 1957 as a college Freshman, and

 

How I came to model how resonant brain processes embody conscious awareness.

The title of the podcast is:

How Do Resonant Brains Make Conscious Minds?
Towards Solving the Hard Problem of Consciousness

This is a discussion with Tevin Naidu from his series Mind-Body Solution.

The podcast was motivated by my Magnum Opus

CONSCIOUS MIND, RESONANT BRAIN: HOW EACH BRAIN MAKES A MIND

https://lnkd.in/eiJh4Ti

that I wrote to be self-contained and non-technical for a general audience.

 

Best,

 

Steve Grossberg
