Movie on *Quantum Physics" & NeuroScience

Though the name of this movie is a bit uncomfortable, Seems like it might have some science,
I’m yet to watch it but ChatGPT says it has the following science in it.

Quantum Physics

  • The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that it is fundamentally impossible to determine both the exact position and exact momentum of a subatomic particle simultaneously.
  • Measurements of subatomic particles involve interactions between the measuring apparatus and the particle. During measurement, photons or other measuring interactions affect the particle being measured.
  • In quantum mechanics, the term “observation” refers to a physical interaction or measurement, not necessarily conscious awareness by a human observer.
  • Subatomic particles exhibit quantum behaviour that differs from the behaviour of everyday macroscopic objects.
  • Quantum particles can be described by probability distributions until interactions occur.
  • Quantum fluctuations allow particles or excitations to appear and disappear according to the laws governing quantum fields.

Neuroscience

  • Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can identify regions of the brain that become metabolically active during specific mental tasks.
  • Brain imaging studies show that recalling an image and visually perceiving an image activate overlapping brain regions.
  • The intensity and pattern of brain activation differ between actual visual perception and memory recall.
  • The human brain processes vastly more sensory and physiological information than reaches conscious awareness.
  • Most neural processing occurs outside conscious awareness and regulates functions such as heartbeat, hormone regulation, metabolism, and other automatic bodily processes.

Let me know if you get time to watch this so that I can plan watching it some day
