    What is Fear? Memory, Emotion & the Malleability of the Mind | Daniela Schiller

    What if our memories weren’t fixed, but flexible? And what if the key to understanding fear, emotion, and consciousness lies in how the brain constantly reshapes experience?In this episode of Mind-Body Solution, Dr Tevin Naidu speaks with Prof Daniela Schiller, a world-renowned neuroscientist, and director of the Laboratory of Affective Neuroscience at Mount Sinai. Prof Schiller’s groundbreaking work explores how we form, change, and even reimagine emotional memories, from the neuroscience of fear to the dynamic nature of consciousness and identity. Together, we dive into:- How fear memories are formed in the brain- Why emotional responses are flexible, not hardwired- The ethics of modifying traumatic memories- Social navigation: how the brain maps human relationships- The Human Affectome: a bold framework linking emotion and consciousness- Can machines ever be conscious? Free will, probabilities, and neuroscience- Memory as liberation: how to live with multiple stories of the selfProf Schiller is not only a world-leading neuroscientist with work published in Nature, Neuron, Nature Neuroscience, and PNAS, she’s also a Fulbright Fellow, Kavli Frontiers of Science Fellow, two-time Moth StorySLAM winner, and drummer for the rock band "The Amygdaloids".TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) – Introduction: Daniela Schiller on the Science of Emotion & Memory(0:39) – From Animal Models to Human Fear Studies: Schiller’s Journey(2:00) – What Happens in the Brain When a Fear Memory is Formed?(3:15) – Flexibility of Emotional Responses: Why Fear Is Not Hardwired(4:51) – Computational Psychiatry & the Brain as an Algorithmic System(6:00) – From Circuits to Consciousness: Can Neuroscience Explain Subjective Experience?(7:11) – The Human Affectome: A Framework Linking Emotion and Consciousness(9:13) – What Is Consciousness?

    Suzanne Gildert: Can We Engineer Consciousness? Quantum Physics, Robotics & Conscious AI Technology

    Dr Suzanne Gildert, Roboticist & Quantum Physicist, is the CEO-founder of Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies, a quantum-AI technology company innovating “Conscious AI” for improved AI decision-making. She holds a Ph.D. in experimental quantum physics from the University of Birmingham in the UK. Suzanne is a prolific technology inventor with dozens of US patents in quantum computing and AI robotics. She previously co-founded Sanctuary AI — building human-like intelligence in General Purpose Robots — and Kindred AI, developing industrial-AI robotics. The acquisition of Kindred AI by Ocado in 2020 for one third of a billion dollars ($339 million CAD) was the third-largest exit for a robotics company in Canadian history. Suzanne has deep expertise in quantum computing from her time at D-Wave where she ported AI algorithms to D-Wave’s quantum annealing hardware. She created quantum algorithms for D-Wave customers including NASA and Lockheed Martin, developed quantum machine learning algorithms for training neural networks and classifiers, and pioneered an online cloud service for quantum application developers.TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) - Introduction (1:26) - Consciousness & AI(7:34) - Defining Consciousness(9:32) - Quantum Consciousness (Faggin, Hameroff, Penrose etc.)(13:50) - Teleological Panprotopsychism(17:26) - Defining Free Will(23:40) - Misunderstanding Non-Materialist Theories(27:30) - From New Age Atheism to Scientific Spirituality/Free Thinking(33:20) - Quantum Computers, Robotics & AI(37:31) - How to Test Conscious AI?(41:42) - The Turing Test & the Edge of Knowledge (LLMs)(49:10) - Decoding or Encoding Consciousness?(53:05) - Agent Boundaries in Robotics (Substrate Independence)(57:10) - Scientific Testing of Quantum Consciousness(1:00:10) - Ethics of Quantum AI (Suffering)(1:03:57) - Techno-Spirituality & Mental Health(1:12:00) - Philosophy of Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies(1:15:10) - Idealism vs Panpsychism(1:22:00) - Quantum Consciousness & Occam's Razor(1:24:00) - Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies(1:31:10) - What to Expect (TSCC 2025)(1:34:25) - ConclusionEPISODE LINKS:- Suzanne's Website: https://www.suzannegildert.com- Suzanne's X: https://x.com/suzannegildert- Suzanne's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/suzannegildert- Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies: https://www.nirvanic.ai- Stuart Hameroff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iCzHwL2EY0- Federico Faggin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSn4t6fP_dc- Bernardo Kastrup 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaSIs2fp7V8- Bernardo Kastrup 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57Oguwg7omc- Johnjoe McFadden: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kldDplYKac- Johnjoe McFadden Lecture 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6FCgjOZdAM- Johnjoe McFadden Lecture 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdNz2lHz3E0CONNECT:- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com - Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- YouTube: https://youtube.com/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

    Matthew Segall: Is the Universe Ensouled with Experience? Consciousness, Cosmology, and Meaning

    Matthew David Segall, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness Department at California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, and the Chair of the Science Advisory Committee for the Cobb Institute. He is a transdisciplinary researcher, writer, teacher, and philosopher applying process-relational thought across the natural and social sciences, as well as to the study of consciousness. He describes himself as a “process philosopher” and transdisciplinary researcher, reflecting his commitment to bridging multiple fields​. Segall’s work builds on the metaphysical framework of Alfred North Whitehead, extending Whitehead’s philosophy of organism into new domains of science, religion, and ecology. In doing so, Segall reinterprets the Western philosophical lineage – from ancient ideas of a world-soul to German Idealism and beyond – to articulate a participatory, organismic vision of nature. His philosophy portrays a cosmos ensouled with meaning and experience, challenging mechanistic materialism and inviting a renewed dialogue between science and spirit​. Segall integrates insights from Whitehead, Schelling, Goethe, and Steiner into a process worldview, develops an organic (panpsychist) cosmology, practices a bold transdisciplinary methodology, and engages public dialogues that embody a form of sacred activism on behalf of our living planet.TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) - Introduction (0:43) - History of Mind-Body Problem(7:40) - Critiquing Physicalism(12:55) - Quantum Theory Interpretations(16:14) - Addressing Illusionism & Scientism(22:00) - The Metaphysics of Prehension(28:14) - Panexperientialism in Physics(31:55) - Propositional Feelings(37:09) - What is Consciousness?(45:00) - Panexperientialism & Free Will(50:00) - Bridging Science & Philosophy(54:42) - Challenging the Cold/Dead Universe tale(1:00:39) - Misconceptions about Matt's work(1:04:20) - Telos(1:07:44) - Matt's Philosopher recommendations(1:13:00) - Mind At Large (Upcoming Events!)(1:17:40) - Conclusion EPISODE LINKS:- Matt's Website: https://footnotes2plato.com-  @Footnotes2Plato : http://www.youtube.com/@Footnotes2Plato- Physics Within the Bounds of Feeling Alone: https://footnotes2plato.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/physics-within-the-bounds-of-feeling-alone.pdf- Matt's X: https://x.com/ThouArtThat- Matt's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/matthew.david.segall- Matt's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewdavidsegall- Matt's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/footnotes2platoCONNECT:- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com - Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- YouTube: https://youtube.com/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.
