latent space & mat space this weekend at the soon to be legendary Foundation Models for the Brain and Body Workshop #neurIPS2025 by @mehdiazabou.bsky.social, @colehurwitz.bsky.social Et al. and the legendary Atos
Pleasure to support the workshop through @e184media.bsky.social

I see proper snow first time since I last visited Moscow in 2019.
Hello Denver
On my way to #neurips2025 - meet me there to talk about how AI will make high performance non-implantable neural decoding possible.
We are developing a thesis for a neuro AI lab. Reach out if you want to collaborate or consider joining us at @e184media.bsky.social
On my way to speak (and more importantly - to listen) at #NYBCI25 - say ‘hello’ if you are there!
If even a small percentage opt into brain scanning, that’s enough training data to put Elon Musk on the back foot.
And the distribution matters: the majority of those eyeball-scans came from Mexico, Germany, Japan, Korea, Portugal, and Thailand.
Some of these are markets where you can move faster, cheaper, and with far less regulatory friction than in the U.S.
Super exciting news for the industry and very interesting how it all plays out
#BCI from Sam Altman has a massive strategic advantage via Tools for Humanity’s user base.
They’ve already scanned/'verified' 13M people - way under their initial target, but still one of the largest pre-qualified pools for any neurotech experiment in history.
‘… If you think you'll lose, you've lost;
For out in this world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will
It's all in the state of mind.’
See you in SF
Ping me here or via p@e184.com if you are there and want to talk about frontier sensors for brain imaging/recording and translating insights and discoveries into understanding of the internal world in our minds, I'll connect you with Sofia; or reach out directly - www.linkedin.com/in/sofia-koz...
‘…physics and neuroscience are ... the most fundamental subjects: one is concerned w the external world out there, & the other w the internal world in our minds’, Demis Hassabis.
So our own e184's Sofia attends the Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Atomic, Molecular & Optical Physics #DAMOP2025
Dorian (MintNeuro.com) and I (e184.com) are very excited to host a round table (aka Synapse) at the SEC Summit by Science Entrepreneur Club on June 5th.
Join the discussion on brain-computer interfaces.
Life science investor/founder who wants to get involved? Find out more - lnkd.in/ewBmCxHn
Morning Banff! Super excited about @bcisociety.bsky.social 11th meeting.
Ping me to talk all #BCI, sensors, venture capital, science funding, progress
Hey, sorry to miss you, I’m sure we’ll have another chance to chat on PsyMed’s events or otherwise in SF!
The ‘control tower’ view mode by @unitedairlinesual.bsky.social is soo cool. I wonder when we have something like this for our own health, real time map of critical processes and functions
I’m traversing the Bay Area today, already planned a string of exciting conversations. Tomorrow will attend the PsyMed Ventures Frontier Neuro Unconference (🙏 to Matias Serebrinsky and the team) if you are there - let me know. #neurotech #bci
if you are up for a #bjj roll in SF - give me a shout!
Petefect day - 11 hours of reading and emails while on a plane + a discussion about cell replacement to fight neurodegeneration and approach enhancement + hard rounds on the mats (they call it ‘a beginners class’, don’t trust them)
SF here I come
'... If we r information, we can potentially travel at the speed of light. So we should not be designing rocket engines to take 100kg human beings 2 other star systems. We should be figuring out how 2 copy this information so that it can be put on a laser beam and beamed to the next star system' 2/2
I have always believed that space and the human mind - the outer cosmos and the inner cosmos - are deeply intertwined. One profoundly philosophical and technological way of viewing this interconnection is by @kennethhayworth.bsky.social 1/2
