@kidgill2000 I agree, and so does David as that is essentially the conclusion of his book titled: Incognito: the secret lives of our brain.
A question about the free will part of the presentation. When he says that it is your unconscious brain that makes all of your decisions, does it take into account what you have consciously learned? Like when people say, “Say no to drugs”, and I take their word for it, does my subconscious brain take that sort of thing into account when someone offers me drugs? If not then i should consider myself very lucky in composing myself the way I should growing up in a place that doesn’t support at all
An intelligent computer that gets shut off is still able to be rebooted and thus brought back to life, therefor you can’t be sentenced for computer-murder.
I find that studying socio-economic problems only brings forth personal agendas. What is bad for one person might be good for another. The difference between right and wrong are clearly distinct and observable by everyone at the core. It is what creates chaos and order. One cannot live without the other. A fix for order can not be attainable. It can only be swayed by the pointing finger of a regulator. Neuroscience uncovers the specifics of such behaviors already observed not projected.
At about 28:40 minutes into it, its important to pay attention to what he’s saying. That lie detectors do not work. They are pseudo science.
You’ve got me Googling “robot legislation,” thanks Mr. Eagleman and ObvJ…
@Shadow9392 But the idea of socialism to a certain level is actually very sound, where everyone would be equal there wouldn’t be a drive for people to do many things, and would help end many crimes for happening a step before even the idea has been made.
@kidgill2000 Sounds like a convenient argument for socialism.
Wow! Such an interesting speaker!
Interesting talk. The Norwegian prison system is streaks ahead of the U.S. “correctional” system with respect to rehabilitation of prisoners.
It is not murder in, the legal sense, to switch of a computer which has artificial intelligence or “consciousness”. Murder is the unlawful, intentional killing of another human being.
Wow’ just imagine the future. You won’t be able to think of anything without people knowing your thoughts! Scary.
Wait a minute, Benoit’s murdering/suicide wasn’t a roid rage. Studies were carried out and his brain was revealed to be in a battered state. He had the brain of an 80 year old Alzheimer’s patient, much like some NFL players who had also committed suicide.

mmm, I should’ve watched before commenting…looks like he touched briefly on that…
@pooch1208
Are you familiar with the free-will/determinism debate? I mean people are nothing more than the product of the way their own brain takes in information and problem solves, and the environment/its influence on the brain. When did not choose our brains—not the disorders, not anything about our brain. It just is. From birth people are destined to one and only one path, it could not be any other way.
