Brain Adaptation to Prosthetic Devices Through Brain-Computer Interfaces
33:12 - 42:09 (08:57)
The brain can adapt to take advantage of prosthetic devices through brain-computer interfaces, much like it has adapted to use electricity. This gives hope for the effectiveness of such devices.

Scientists have built an evolutionary optimization system that uses a surrogate model of plant growth to explore 300 recipes in growing basil, which is optimized to grow in a hydroponic food computer.

Summary
Scientists have built an evolutionary optimization system that uses a surrogate model of plant growth to explore 300 recipes in growing basil, which is optimized to grow in a hydroponic food computer. The system quickly identified the best-performing recipe for basil growth in the computerised environment.

The idea of using external devices to augment human intelligence might not increase overall intelligence, as the brain might not be able to handle an order of magnitude greater set of information thrown at it.
38:03 - 40:32 (02:29)
Summary
The idea of using external devices to augment human intelligence might not increase overall intelligence, as the brain might not be able to handle an order of magnitude greater set of information thrown at it. It may be more efficient to use the power of the human brain to address problems instead.
