00:04 SW starts talking
00:26 Is there an actual use case for AI math proofs? Would they ever have come in handy in your work?
39:35 Will there be famous AI proofs the way there are famous human ones today?
41:32 How is it this related to a physical proof? Can anything be proved?
44:23 Should students still learn to construct proofs if AI can do it better?
47:03 Could there be proofs that are true but fundamentally impossible to communicate?
47:37 Whats the strangest kind of proof you think could exist?
51:59 Should proofs be optimized for correctness, brevity, or interpretability?
56:09 Can AI resolve all zero day exploits before software is released and is attacked by exploit finding AI?
1:03:49 Is an AI hallucination a bug, or just part of how the system works?
1:09:09 Should proofs be optimized for correctness, brevity, or interpretability?
1:09:59 What makes a cat a cat...

00:18 Why do we have a brain when all of our cells have a brain aka nucleus?
8:03 If I made a very tiny robot the size of a dust speck, what would be the hardest thing for it to understand about the world?
10:26 Why did evolution settle on cells as the basic unit of life[LongDash]could there have been a completely different architecture?
23:42 If humans had evolved during the time of dinosaurs would we have had giant humans?
28:23 Is evolution still happening to humans in any meaningful way, or have we kind of stepped outside it?
34:36 Could there be fundamental computational limits to how complex biological organisms can become through evolution?
46:28 Why has evolution repeatedly converged on similar solutions—]like eyes, wings, and social behavior? Does that suggest deeper laws constraining biological design?
50:04 Perhaps pearls and seashells of gold instead of calcium?
51:31 is the fact that we have a somewhat centralized and unified brain just an anatomical coincidence? octopuses are thought to have somewhat independent brains in each arm...
56:42 Do you think the little brains they create for computing in labs now have a consciousness?
1:02:50 Do you ever think that there are types of evolution that might be more efficient in computing? In nature an organism has a genome, but digital strategies dont have to follow the same rules, so just curious if youve thought in this area.
1:08:55 Why do humans not have the ability to turn half their brain off to sleep like dolphins? That seems like a useful survival tactic
1:13:31 How does the brain turn chemical signals into specific tastes like sweet or bitter, and why do certain molecules taste the way they do?
