Your brain isn't a mirror of reality, proposes Karl Friston. It's a prediction machine, constantly constructing the world it thinks it's about to experience.
In this interview, Friston argues that perception is never passive.
Drawing on the Free Energy Principle, he explains how perception, action, and consciousness all emerge from the same underlying drive: minimising surprise.
Reality isn't something we observe, but something we actively build.

A new framework for consciousness:
Can we read conscious brain activity by measuring spikes of neural entropy? @DrTomFroese

Listening to music with a friend syncs up your emotional and brain responses. According to a recent Cortex study, sharing a musical experience increases the moment-to-moment similarity of subjective pleasure and enhances neural alignment between listeners. dlvr.it/TSHPgK
Daniel Goleman, Harvard psychologist, spent decades studying why brilliant people self-sabotage.
His finding: 7 emotional patterns quietly wreck high performers — and the smartest fall for every one.
Here’s what’s running your life. 🧵🧵
🚨 AI just redesigned a waste-heat generator and boosted performance by up to 8.2x.
The breakthrough wasn’t a new material.
It was shape.
Instead of the old rectangular thermoelectric block, topology optimization created strange hourglass/I-shaped structures that control heat flow and electrical resistance better.
That matters because humanity wastes enormous energy as heat.
Factories. Engines. Data centers. Exhaust systems.
If AI can sculpt materials around physics instead of human intuition, waste heat becomes harvestable power.
The future of energy may be weird-looking geometry.
Follow me I track where physics becomes structure.
Dreaming EXPLAINED 🔥
When you go blind, your visual cortex gets taken over by your other senses. That’s why blind people can still dream in vivid detail.
This is exactly why Jedi train blindfolded — to stop relying on their eyes and tap into the Force.
It’s also why Arya Stark trained in total darkness with the Faceless Men… to sharpen her other senses before becoming an assassin.
Mind officially blown 😂

Blind people still dream… right?

🧠 Could Your Brain Be a Quantum Computer?
Scientists are exploring a mind-bending possibility: tiny fibers in your brain, called microtubules, might be capable of generating quantum entanglement — the same strange connection that links particles across space instantly. Imagine your thoughts and memories being influenced by quantum physics, operating in ways we barely understand. This isn’t science fiction — some researchers suggest it could play a role in consciousness itself.
But here’s the catch: it’s still a theory, and experiments are just beginning to test these ideas. Could our brains really tap into the quantum world? The answers could change everything we know about thought, perception, and reality.
