  1. Brain Rot and Your IQ: What Science Actually Says About Screen Time, Social Media, and Intelligence

    Henry David Thoreau coined “brain rot” in 1854 in Walden, writing about society’s preference for simple ideas over complex thought. The complaint maps remarkably well onto algorithmic content feeds 170 years later.

  6. Is Gen Z Getting Dumber? What the IQ Data Actually Shows About the First Generation to Score Lower Than Their Parents

    The Gen Z IQ story is not a story about a broken generation. It is a story about what happens when environments change faster than our understanding of what those environments are doing to cognition.

  11. This is likely the most influential interview (30m) that you will hear in your life.
    Alex is a #physics and #neuroscientist professor.
    As far from #woowoo as you can get...

    He rationally critiques the ossified #materialistic #science and offers an opportunity for humans to expand its myopic and destructive obsession with a very narrow perspectives if the hard problem of #consciousness

    He touches on #AI and the toxic ideology of #broligarchy , #transhumanism

    The amazing #Neuroscientist Roddy Grieves has finally joined us on Mastodon / Fedi!

    Roddy does really cool research on rats navigating in 3D and the coding of boundaries in our memory. He will be very interested in following any neuroethologists, neuroscientists, or anyone interested in animal behaviour... But most importantly, he loves photography!

  24. ✨ Consciousness – the government spokesperson 📢 of our brain 🧠

    In our #Zoomposium, #neuroscientist #GerhardRoth describes #consciousness as a kind of government spokesperson: it interprets and legitimizes #actions whose actual reasons lie in unconscious neural processes – processes to which we have no direct access.

  29. How did human consciousness evolve? Neuroscientist Nikolay Kukushkin traces our sophisticated brains back to the first complex cells – Live Science

    1. Health Mind Neuroscience

    The evolution of life on Earth ‘almost predictably’ led to human intelligence, neuroscientist says

    Interview, By Nicoletta Lanese, published 2 days ago

    Neuroscientist Nikolay Kukushkin spoke to Live Science about how human consciousness evolved.

    “Consciousness,” although challenging to define, can be thought of as a first-person awareness of one’s surroundings and oneself. You sense the world through your eyes, nose, ears and hands, and track your internal bodily states via interactions between your cells. These data streams collide to give rise to your personal perception of the world, your place within it, and your motivations for moving through it.

    An enduring question about consciousness is how this state of awareness comes about. Is consciousness simply the result of a bunch of chemical reactions? Or is there some extra “secret ingredient”?

    In the book “One Hand Clapping: Unraveling the Mystery of the Human Mind” (Prometheus/Swift Press, 2025), New York University neuroscientist Nikolay Kukushkin explores these questions. To do so, he traces the evolutionary history of human consciousness from the formation of Earth’s first DNA molecules to present-day Homo sapiens. Kukushkin studies memory in non-brain biological systems, such as human kidney cells, as well as in simple organisms such as sea slugs. He also considers himself a “molecular philosopher.”

  31. I am not a #neuroscientist, but what if hard work studying actually helps synapses connect, and what if using LLMs is only a fraction of that?

  36. @Swede1952

    Cool Story.

    Have a look at the work of Professor Donald Hoffman a #neuroscientist.

    He has a theory that humans evolved their senses to only pick up and process sensory data that immediately aids survival.

    Considering this, humans are functionally blind, we only pick up about 0.3% of the EM spectrum, not to mention any pan-dimensional shenanigans.

    TLDR; Shits real yo, we can't see it tho.

    Some species of rodents have a region of the somatosensory cortex that was named the #barrelcortex after its shape, and which contains the barrel field. 🧵
