205 - Neural networks, AI, and consciousness
Manage episode 240024108 series 2350236
Tom Burns is a computational neuroscientist who uses artificial neural networks to simulate the human brain and understand how it makes sense of the world. His research focus includes spiking neural networks, the so-called third generation models taking on deep learning.
In this episode we cover some basic neuroscience before moving into the realm of the artificial, looking at how neural networks have evolved since the early days, and how they might be applied to real world problems. We also talk about the importance of philosophy in science, and what this research can reveal about the nature of our own minds.
To find out more about Tom’s research, including a selection of projects, papers, and presentations, head over to tfburns.com.
