Interview: "What Neuroscience Tells Us About AGI"

Host: @sopharicks

[Sophia @sopharicks]

According to Karl Friston, a sure sign of AGI is when your chatbot gets curious. Imagine being prompted by an AI instead of the other way around.

Interesting to see that the UK is number 2 worldwide (after the USA) in terms of consumer neurotech employment, number of companies, and funding deals...

We attended the Great Exhibition Road festival in London over the weekend and more than 250 people tried our Zenbud vagus nerve stimulation device!

One person who suffered from anxiety/depression even came back on the second day with a friend because she felt so much better after her first try...

Implantable BCI company? Not for the faint hearted. It’s ~ 15+ years. Control your burn if early. You can’t spend to accelerate safety.

(Below, “clinical” means fully implantable technology stack and company sponsored trial)

Assumptions based on class 3 PMA stories and looking at market leader histories. Where are my assumptions wrong?

Synchron
8 years preclinical: 2011-2019
6 years so far clinical: 2019-
2028 target approval date for PMA

Neuralink
8 years preclinical: 2016-2024
1 year clinical: 2024-
? target approval date (is it 2032?)

Paradromics
10 years preclinical: 2015-
Not yet clinical
? target approval date (is it 2033?)

Precision
4 years preclinical: 2021-
Not yet clinical
? target approval date (is it 2037?)

Echo
2 years preclinical: 2023-
Not yet clinical
? target approval date (is it 2039?)

BlackRock Neuro
Not sure here - they have a long history of clinical trials but without fully implantable system. Now well funded and kicking off effort to develop a commercial tech stack, so let’s start from Tether funding but presume their preclinical phase is brief…

Preclinical: 2024-
Not yet clinical
? target approval date (is it 2039?)

1/ How can AI transform British science? 🚀

Building on brilliant proposals in @matthewclifford’s AI Opportunities Action Plan, the next report in @InstituteGC's New National Purpose series outlines steps necessary for the UK to reshape research for the AI era.

highlights...🧵

[Charlie Harris @charlieharris01]

1/ Just read through the @matthewclifford AI Action Plan now.

Tl;dr: it's great but here are a few things that stood out to me as someone interested in AI for Science and sovereign compute and data capability.

A thread: 🧵

[ARIA @ARIA_research]

Do you have an idea to tackle a critical bottleneck in science and technology that cannot be addressed through current institutional structures?

Our Activation Partner, @Convergent_FROs, is seeking proposals that could unlock transformative progress in our opportunity spaces👇
