E130 - Gregg Braden: Artificial vs Ancient Intelligence: The Rise of Tech Without Losing Our Power

when we were working in the high-tech industry during the Cold War, and engineers working on nuclear triggers for our weapon systems were glued to their screens playing this game of Pong because nothing had ever been seen like that before. I mean, you know, it's hard to think with the advanced gaming world we live in now. It's so simple. But here's the point. They took

They took that computer chip with the neurons, they hooked it to a computer that was loaded with this game Pong, the neurons started playing the game. And the longer they played, the better they got. They were learning from playing this game. So the question becomes, how does a neuron not hook to a person in a Petri dish know how to play Pong, where are the instructions for the Pong?

The answer is the instructions are not in the neuron. The neuron is the resonant antenna that tunes to the place in the field that scientists now have acknowledged. July 4th, 2012, the CERN superconducting supercollider announced the existence of the field underlying all existence. So this is not a metaphor, not new thought, new age make-believe.

So the neurons are tuning to the place in the field where Pong lives. There's a place in the field.

Yeah, his morphic resonance, morphogenic field. But we all know this in everyday life because when we choose to learn something new, Andre, and you and I are both guitarists. If you're learning another language, you know, a foreign language, You, the first time you try to learn something guitar, it feels awkward or you're speaking phonetically in a foreign language and it sounds weird.

All of a sudden you wake up one morning and you're playing like Steve Vai, hopefully. Or, you know, you're speaking French or you're speaking English and you say, well, God, you know, what happened? It was hard a couple of days ago. Here's the answer to that. The time-lapse photography shows it takes about 72 hours for neurons to find one another. They're very social cells. They want to hook up.

Absolutely. We all have them. So it takes about three days, about 72 hours. And you can see under a microscope, here's where we come in. It is the act. The act.
