real peppers for real spice lovers.

Um, who would that be? How

today. Coming
2:05
up on StarTalk special edition, rather
2:08
than attach computers to your brains,
2:11
what happens if a
2:13
computer is made of
2:15
the building blocks of brains
2:18
themselves? Coming up on
2:20
special edition. Welcome
2:24
to StarTalk, your
2:26
place in the universe where science
2:28
and pop culture collide. StarTalk
2:32
begins right now. This
2:37
is StarTalk special edition. Neil
2:40
deGrasse Tyson, you're a personal astrophysicist.
2:42
I got with me my co-host,
2:44
the dynamic duo. Gary
2:48
O'Reilly. Gary, how you doing, man? I'm good, Neil.
2:50
Good to be on again. Former soccer pro. You
2:52
staying in shape a little bit? No. Okay.
2:56
We'll do a separate episode on staying in
2:58
shape. Just as it should be. And that
3:01
other voice is, of course, longtime StarTalk co-host,
3:03
Chuck Knight. How you doing, Chuck? Hey, what's
3:05
happening? So Gary, what did you and your
3:07
producers cook up for today? Well,
3:09
once we came across this particular
3:11
project and this particular guest, this
3:14
was a given. We had to do it.
3:16
So let me put it to you this way. Everyone
3:19
wants to know what tomorrow's
3:21
world will bring. We
3:23
all know you can put technology
3:25
into biologists, think Elon and Newerling.
3:28
But is that the only route to the
3:30
future? What if we flip
3:32
the script? Yeah. What
3:35
if we introduce the biology to the
3:38
technology? Oh. Then
3:41
what happens? You get what I'm
3:43
reliably informed is called synthetic biological
3:45
intelligence or, as we will
3:47
learn further into the show, SBI for short.
3:50
And so during this show, Neil, we're
3:53
going to get into AGI ethics, comparing
3:56
SBI with silicone
3:59
intelligence. Squeezing
22:49
everything you want to do into one
22:52
vacation can make even the most experienced
22:54
