Exactly. Typically, what we have now, though, is that you can volunteer. You say, hey, I would like to take the lie detector test and present that as evidence. The court doesn't have to accept it. That's true. Yeah. It's minority report ish. Yeah.

Now, the interesting thing about Minority Report, which is important, is that it is a total fantasy to imagine that you could ever predict what somebody is going to do. Why? Because the world's really complicated and every moment your brain is changing based on what the whole world is doing to you. So we can't ever know, oh, now we've got such great technology.

We know that in a week Jordan's going to commit a crime. No possible way of ever knowing that.

Exactly right. So there may or may not be a next step. That's right.

Great. Thanks, Jordan.

The conscious mind just gets access to the very top little bit, the newspaper headlines. And the reason is, you know, you've got almost 100 billion neurons. Neurons are the specialized cell type in the brain. These are doing incredibly complicated things.

And by incredibly complicated, I mean things we haven't even scratched the surface of yet in terms of the algorithms that they're running that make us up. I don't think we could even function at our scale of space and time if we had access to that level of detail. I mean, you can't keep 100 billion things in mind and each one of these neurons is talking about 10,000 of its neighbors.
