Cortical Labs is a startup building brain cells to perform machine learning, instead of just using conventional silicon chips. When both the in vivo and in silico were trained at the same rate, the in vivo brain cells learned to play pong faster than the in silico silicon chips. This means the brain cells were more efficient at learning that pure silicon neural nets. What is the future of this startup? What are the applications? This is a great conversation with the founder of Cortical Labs, Hon Weng Chong.  Hon's Twitter: https://twitter.com/dr1337 Cortical Labs Twitter: https://twitter.com/CorticalLabs Their site: https://corticallabs.com/ My twitter: https://twitter.com/nasjaq__ Video on youtube: https://youtu.be/Y1R5k5QWPsY FIND ME:  Twitter: https://twitter.com/nasjaq__ Instagram: https://instagram.com/nasjaq_/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/nasjaq Subscribe: https://youtube.com/c/nasjaq/?sub_confirmation=1 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nasjaq/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nasjaq/support

Jean Hebert runs the Hebert lab at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Hebert is paving the way for longer lifespans by means of replacing aging brains. We may soon live in a world where a 90-year-old person can possess the brain of a young, sharp 20-year-old.  Check out https://hebertlab.einsteinmedneuroscience.org for more information about what the lab is up to and follow Jean Hebert on Twitter at @Replacing_Aging  (https://twitter.com/Replacing_Aging) Video Podcast: https://youtu.be/803WyWZkCaM FIND ME:   Twitter: https://twitter.com/nasjaq__ Intermittent writings (terrapunk manifesto soon): https://nasjaq.substack.com/   Initial terrapunk tweet: https://twitter.com/terrapunk/status/1444410112685133825   CAMEO (new): https://www.cameo.com/nasjaq   MERCH: https://nasjaq.shop/   Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nasjaq   All my links: https://beacons.page/nasjaq   --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nasjaq/message  Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/nasjaq/support --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nasjaq/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nasjaq/support

Beans are an algorithmic stablecoin that represent an evolution of stablecoins - kind of like going from USDC to DAI to FRAX to BEANS. The problem with USDC is that since each coin is backed by the collateral of $1 US Dollar, they can't grow the supply fast enough to keep up with demand. This means that interest rates on loans are extremely high (like 30-50%) and this is, of course, unsustainable for the average person. Beans is designed so that the supply can increase beyond USDC and other stablecoins to provide lower interest rate loans - the end goal is less than 0.1% interest rates. To get there, they've designed an algorithmic stablecoin based on credit and debt cycles instead of collateral.  Beans is still in the infancy stage - they are currently working on integrations with other protocols which will increase demand and therefore increase supply.  There are two ways to invest in beans right now - the silo or by sowing. Sowing gives you a fixed amount of pods based on the weather at the time of sowing, you go to the back of the pod line and wait for them to harvest. Each pod turns into one bean, which should be worth approximately $1 (algo-stable). Silo-ing entitles you to passive income through receiving an amount of beans every season (hour) based on your ownership percentage of the Silo - half of all beans minted go to the Silo, the other half go towards moving up the pod line.  You can read the whitepaper here: https://bean.money/docs/beanstalk.pdf Or follow bean_merchant for incredibly simple breakdowns (and good memes): https://twitter.com/bean_merchant ALSO: This podcast was recorded a few weeks ago. Since beanstalk is constantly moving forward - some numbers may be outdated! But the ideas still stand.

Yanni Barghouty is the founder of Cosmic Shielding, a startup building new materials to shield astronauts from space radiation - especially secondary radiation. Their materials can eventually be used to shield space stations like the International Space Station, protect satellites from radiation, create radiation-shielded astronaut suits and even possibly build rockets from this material. Absolutely insane.    They are crowdfunding here: https://www.spacedventures.com/offers/cosmic-shielding-2021/pitch  As always, go follow us on twitter, linked below.

Sam Kriegman is a computer scientist turned postdoc researcher at the Wyss lab for Biologically Inspired Engineering with Michael Levin, the bio electricity researcher who regenerated limbs on a frog. Sam has focused on evolutionary design for creating xenobots, which are created from frog embryos and sculpted into tiny living organisms. They are absolutely incredible and I recommend looking up a picture of them. If you’re on YouTube, then it’s in the thumbnail haha. Anyways, we discuss the xenobots, and the future of biological evolutionary design, now let’s get into the episode!

Milan is a machine learning engineer newly focused on the field of neuromodulation. Neuromodulation is the science of using inputs to the brain to modify brain and nerve cell activity. Most devices are 'wellness' devices, such as Halo or Neurable, that can increase your muscle growth or focus, but there are also more advanced devices coming onto the market. For example, Cognito Therapeutics is working on a Phase 3 non-invasive device that can reduce or halt the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimers. We talk about this and much more.    https://twitter.com/MWCvitkovic Twitter: https://twitter.com/NASJAQ__ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/nasjaq All links: https://beacons.page/nasjaq  Affiliate links for awesome startups to support the podcast:  Zbiotics: https://zbiotics.com/discount/nasjaq use code ‘NASJAQ’ for 10% off this probiotic drink that prevents hangovers  EightSleep: https://eightsleep.com use code NASJAQ to save 10% on a temperature controlled mattress that can massively upgrade your sleep quality --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nasjaq/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nasjaq/support
