That was *WEIRD*…. I don’t habla Espanol, but the sub-titles speak for themselves. Sorta….
The toothless guy is a *lab*manager*? WTF? Anyway, at 1 Billion Euros, to study 100 Billion neurons, that’s 1/100 Euro per neuron. That’s a *BARGAIN*!
The subtitles don’t match the spoken words. This is a joke video.
By now there have been so many resubtitled video jokes, that there are even resubtitled video jokes that are about resubtitled video jokes.
The one in the post is a bit long, but the point that simulating the whole human brain is a joke is, of course, completely spot on. The last I checked, we can’t even simulate C. Elegans. Ah, but it seems we’re getting closer.

tears are running down my face. This works for so many kinds of research funding….
