There is something beyond the human body that is not accounted for in scientific models, which science must come to terms with to remain valid.

We are at a pivotal point where technology can change who we are genetically, and we need to understand what it means to be human before we give that away.

As science advances, it expands the boundaries of philosophy, allowing us to learn new things and refine our understanding of universal truths.

Science is not just about memorizing names; it's about understanding principles and concepts that explain the universe.

Despite over 20 years of studying consciousness with neuroscientists, we have not made any progress in understanding how consciousness comes to be, which I find categorically different from anything else science has studied.

Artificial intelligence is today just outside of our understanding, and we have to reach for it to uncover the mysteries of the human mind and build human-level and superhuman-level AI systems that transform our world for the better.

We need to conduct more human experiments to improve our understanding of drug effects and their mechanisms in the human body.

I believe there is so much in nature that we have yet to leverage and understand, and much of our work is about unveiling new truths about the natural world.

While we are approaching human-level computing power with supercomputers, we still lack a clear understanding of how to replicate human intelligence.
