In this episode of Deep Nonsense, we tackle the science behind one of the most iconic movie ideas ever: bringing dinosaurs back to life using ancient insect DNA.

Is the Jurassic Park concept just movie magic, or are we actually getting close to resurrecting long-extinct species? With help from Google Gemini’s deep research tools, we dig into fossilized mosquitoes, the fragility of DNA over time, and the real-world breakthroughs in cloning and genetic engineering.

Join us as we break down what’s possible, what’s plausible, and what’s pure prehistoric nonsense.

Can you really learn kung fu in seconds, just by uploading it to your brain? The Matrix made it look easy — but how close are we to making that real?

In this episode of Deep Nonsense, we jack into the science behind brain-computer interfaces, memory encoding, and neuroplasticity. With Google Gemini’s deep research, we explore:

• How the brain stores complex skills like martial arts

• Whether memories and muscle memory can be artificially implanted

• The cutting-edge tech behind Neuralink and BCIs

• If we’ll ever be able to “download” knowledge into our minds like Neo

• The philosophical implications of instant learning

Is it sci-fi fantasy, or just a few decades away? Let’s find out.
