I am usually off the comment section, but I really believe all humans need to listen to this video. Thank you Stanford University .
I just want to meet him and thank him for being the best teacher I've (n)ever had. That brain really is something.
2010 - I found a lecture about neural networks. 2020 - Neural networks found a lecture for me :)
I quit school at 14 now at 62 I have listened to all his lectures over and over again for a dozen years. I wish I had the text books to follow along with. We live in amazing times thanks to Stanford and Robert I am somewhat edegucated du to there help Now I’m not an idiot thanks for them I’ll keep reviewing all 25 lectures
The man has just put in one hour and a half what I have been studying for the last year and a half for my PhD. Feels weird!
quarantine and Sapolsky it's all I need. Hands up for this brilliant professor.
this guy is an incredible teacher and i'm grateful to be able to watch this
I am overwhelmed with gratitude by having access to this level of understanding.
you should enable the option to add subtitles so that we translators can make sure everybody has access to this awesomeness :(
Anything that comes out of this mans mouth is worthy of deep thinking.Seems to me.Very lucky to have these available.
1:19:40 - That bit about autism is FASCINATING. And it fits - a way to describe the effects of autism is to say that affected individuals have "trouble grasping the big picture." But they can do incredible, amazing feats of "deep thought" about little specific things. Having the brain connectivity be skewed toward more localism fits that PERFECTLY.
Great talk, and great lecturer. Also, you've got to admire the physical manifestation of emergent complexity that is the beard.
Why do I get so excited being nerdily interested in this while not understanding it (yet)? Prof Sapolsky is a great educator. Thank you. Reading his books made me happy too, he's so humourous :D
Okay, this may be the best lecture of this already great series so far.. I will definetely rewatch it again.
Every time I watch one of his lectures, I'm always fascinated that he is both great at explaining while still being funny and charismatic. There are so many likeable speakers out there that hook you but usually the content is lacking. He just delivers interesting and well thought out ideas by the minute.
The deeper the lecture goes the more it gets interesting. Sir Sapolsky, you're a LEGEND!
This lecture is a masterpiece and should be passed further to all our fellow humans so that they can be enlightened not by church and religion but with a real science! Prof. Sapolsky is a hero of 21 Century !
What a brilliant teaching style and wonderful professor. He has a way of making complex subject matter easy to access and make sense of. I am honored and grateful to be able to be part of this classroom. How lucky we all are to be able to sit in and learn from such brilliant academics at the top of their game. Thank you sir.
I don't have anything more than to say, he has a beautiful mind and he knows what the lecturing is about.. a great man so grateful to have people like Professor Robert Sapolsky.
