Machine Consciousness - with Nicholas Thompson and Geoffrey Hinton
What if the most advanced AI models could think and respond in a way that felt like a human consciousness? How might that transform our understanding of intelligence itself?

This episode explores the idea of AI consciousness and delves into how the act of dreaming is connected to neural networks in unexpected ways.
