The New Laws of Robotics - Dr. Karl Friston, Cognitive Neuroscientist

Dr. Karl Friston is the most widely-cited neuroscientist in the
world, known for his development of parametric mapping, a method
for comparing brain scans between different patients that
basically enabled the whole field of functional neuroscience. To
follow up his insights into the human brain, Dr. Friston has
turned his mathematical mind to other questions of life and
consciousness, such as the distinction between living and
not-living, the simplest division imaginable between things, and
the great challenge of encoding emotional states. We dig into
what a soulful robot might look like, and the new class of myths
that humans and robots are going to have to write together.

PODCAST INFO:  Anastasia completed her PhD studying
bioelectricity at Columbia University. When not talking to
brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting,
reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Michael Shilo also
did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of
molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring
sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various
universities.
