Mind Reading

In this episode I visit a researcher who is studying memory by using machine learning and neuroimaging to detect and predict people's brain states. I also travel to Japan to meet with a team working on ways to record the content of peoples’ dreams.

imagine you're sleeping and your dad checks your dreaming history

[rhinoboy]

Michael comes out of the FMRI. "So Michael let me debrief you, the FMRI is switched off, this was a psychological experiment..."

[_motho_]

Dr. Kami is so humble. Dude’s reading dreams and he’s like “well it’s not that accurate”

07:10
Normal people: Good morning, how are you?
Michael: How are my results?

[SmoojerCharles]

Doctor-Hey how you doing.
Michael- “how are my results”

[YeloPartyHat]

Its so wholesome that in Michael's memory everyone is smiling

[umadbroyo]

"Mind reading? Of course not, I love reading."


*I AM DYING*

[PegasusIII]

I wonder if they tested someone with perfect picture memory.

HIS LITTLE SMILE WHEN HE SEES HIMSELF WITH THE CELEBS IS THE MOST WHOLESOME THING EVER WE MUST PROTECT THIS MAN

[Jesus_in_the_Coliseum]

Micheal: it’s so fascinating!

Dr. Kamitani: it’s actually boring

[spoiltmilk]

Dr. Kamitani is so humble like Michael is just marveling at his technology and he's like, no but it's not it's not finished it's not accurate yet

[diegohuijbregtsgarcia]

Dr. Kamitani was so incredibly humble about his results, even though they were great! Very cool to see somebody doing that good of a job stay so humble.

[NACtheMC]

i feel like he was still thinking about john cho through the entire process.

*If 2 mind readers are reading each other’s mind, who’s mind are they really reading?*

[ArowStone]

"So follow your dreams
and, as soon as you can,
show them to me"

I love how he meant this figuratively and literally

[sythdude]

You know... I always thought that this Mass Effect music piece (14:08) was just some stock music meant to sound 'science-y', but after watching a playthrough of Mass Effect, I find it so weird that this piece of music is just so freaking universal on the internet (and that it doesn't cause endless copyright strikes)

[androidgamer]

Can we appreciate the fact that this is free?

[generalkt]

“Pardon my language, *Bullshoot.”*



Woah man, watch your language.

[bongobongo]

Vsauce: *makes midfield free*

Me, a broke college student: My time has come.

[infrakazos]

I like the fact that he smiled when he saw himself.
