Are there certain subjects that have broad indirect cognitive benefits?
For example, if someone studies a new language or practices computer programming, would they expect to see benefits in unrelated displicines that may leverage similar neuronal circuits? Could this be leveraged by dedicating learning bouts to learning new subjects that have broad impact?
What do the recent advances in artificial neural networks teach us about neuroscience? It would be great to have an interview with an AI researcher.
Does the training process and design of modern artificial networks teach us something about the learning process and architecture of the human brain? I've heard arguments from Richard Ngo that the human brain is a larger neural network, but trained on smaller datasets compared to Large Language Models like ChatGPT. Are there certain tasks that the human brain is better suited for than an artificial neural network given these differences?
Faith Practices and their impact on body and mind for resiliency
With the well known integration and impact the body, mind and spirit have on each other can you speak about evidence based research on how spiritual practices impact happiness, mental health and overall well-being. Are those that practice some form of faith more resilient?
Does taking supplements in the morning or night break your fast?
Does taking supplements in the morning or night break your fast? For example, are they considered breaking fast if you take a sleep stack of Magnesium L-Threonate or Glycinate, L-Theanine and Apigenin like what you used as your sleep stack?
diet and dementia
I have noticed a few people have been asking questions about different diets. I would be interested to hear your opinion on the benefit of a vegan (and low sugar) diet for dementia (and brain health overall). As recommended by neurologists Ayesha and Dean Sherzai. Thank you
