Brain(s): automatons, accidents and sinthetic evolution
Lecture by Ricard SoléThe human brain has extraordinary capacities, including language and awareness but it is also the result of an evolution that is full of accidents and makeshift developments. Could humans have a synthetic artificial brain? What might we learn from the historical process that has endowed us with the human mind?
Ricard Solé, ICREA research professor at the Pompeu Fabra University (UPF)
Presenter: Jaume Vilalta, director of the TV3 (Catalan Television) programme “Quèquicom” [What Who How]
