Have you ever wondered how similar information encoding and processing of artificial intelligence (AI) is to our own human brain? How are our minds incredibly energy efficient compared to the bucketloads of energy required to power these sophisticated yet oftentimes naive AI models? These are all questions we explore, and practical advice on how students can get involved in answering these types of questions as well as pursuing interdisciplinary studies!
In this episode of Brains, Black Holes, and Beyond, Aanya Kasera sits down with Dr. Leslie and Dr. Lombrozo, professors and researchers who are part of heading the brand new interdisciplinary research initiative, Natural and Artificial Minds (NAM), to learn more about AI models and how that may enrich our understanding of the ever-enigmatic human mind.
This episode of Brains, Black Holes, and Beyond (B cubed) was produced under the 148th board of the Prince in partnership with the Insights newsletter.
