2:35-10:23 Do you have any plans, and when can we expect to see a S. Wolfram AI chatbot with voice?
10:33-13:22 Do you think each AI iteration of the person would be similar at the start and then diverge in personality/intelligence as they continued to "live" and develop?
13:27-18:03 Are you comfortable with the average quality and correctness of AI-generated answers and commentary?
18:10-26:29 Due to the success of nature-inspired computing, I am really wondering if like our best bet is creating full-on human replicas, meaning similar learning experiences/processes...
26:42-28:06 I like the architecture of having many bots with like a base that confer and like upload their findings to a global knowledgebase, then disperse on like new assignments or what have you after returning.
28:23-30:50 Do you think human brains compress data in a lossy way, and will future AI brains also have to use lossy compression methods to be more human like? Or would AI perfect memory be more desirable?
30:54-50:00 Could an element printer theoretically work, e.g. one feeds it with carbon atoms and it prints out an arbitrary element?
50:06-54:24 Can you explain the quantum LLMs idea, and what advantage exists in applying multi-computation, if any, to LLMs?
54:53-58:04 What would an AI look like that is rewarded based on questioning rather than answering?
58:09-1:01:35 What do you think will happen when we understand prime numbers to their fullest? And when we can translate this knowledge to AI?
1:04:03-1:06:33 About SW's Upcoming Eclipse Stream

3:33 SW starts talking
3:44 May I ask a simple question? What aspects or elements of a probability distribution can be computed or quantified, and how are these computations used to describe the distribution?
28:21 Why are some creatures nocturnal? Why arent humans?
35:04 Is the normal distribution related to the complexity of the dynamics, or is it found equally at all scales?
38:16 Does pi have a normal number distribution?
39:40 Google says the average human height is 59–its 510 in the US.
41:16 I read that there is a puzzle over why no new body plans developed since the Cambrian. In your machine learning view of adaptive evolution, whats happening here?
54:31 Apparently Japanese kids are getting taller, correlated with red meat consumption.
1:02:04 Do you think there are so many variables that its impossible to figure out? Everyone knows about corn syrup, but there are also things like smoking was very common, etc.
1:07:58 What kinds of diseases that have afflicted humanity for almost all of our history would stunt growth?
1:12:05 If you consume less energy, your processes including various damage and aging slow down, right?
1:15:19 Could we have evolved out of needing an appendix because of diet?
1:20:21 Is it possible to measure somehow the intelligence of dinosaurs?
