FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

THE VIBES LAB PODCAST - PI DAY LAUNCH

Q: What is "The Vibes Lab" podcast?
A: "The Vibes Lab" is a new podcast from Vibes AI that explores the science, research, and development behind brain health and cognitive wellness technologies. The podcast features Notebook LM deep dive discussions about approaches to understanding and enhancing brain function. Each episode offers accessible explanations of complex brain science, AI and sound therapy in order to introduce listeners to the technologies that can help maintain cognitive health over a lifetime.

Q: Why is the podcast launching on Pi Day?
A: We chose Pi Day (March 14 or 3.14) for our launch because it perfectly represents our mission. Pi is an irrational number with an infinite, non-repeating decimal expansion, yet it's fundamental to rational understanding of mathematics and the universe. Similarly, Vibes AI takes complex, seemingly irrational neuroscience and transforms it into rational, accessible tools for everyday brain health. The paradox of Pi—being both precise and infinite—mirrors our approach to cognitive wellness: precise science made infinitely accessible to all.

Q: What topics will "The Vibes Lab" podcast cover?
A: The podcast will explore a wide range of topics related to brain health, including:

• The science behind 40Hz restorative audio and its impact on brain function
• How voice biomarkers can be used for early detection of cognitive changes
• The development and application of voice and brain-computer interfaces
• Understanding the 12 factors of brain health identified in our research
• The concept of Joy-Span™ versus mere longevity
• Real-world applications of cognitive wellness technology
• The intersection of AI, neuroscience, and consumer technology

Q: What is 40Hz restorative audio technology and why is it important?
A: 40Hz restorative audio technology uses sound waves at a specific frequency (40 hertz) to stimulate neural plasticity and potentially enhance brain function. Research suggests that this frequency can synchronize neural activity in key brain regions and may help clear toxic proteins associated with neurodegenerative conditions. Our podcast explores how this technology is being developed and implemented in consumer products to potentially delay cognitive decline and enhance overall brain health. The technology is non-invasive, accessible, and can be easily integrated into daily life through our devices and applications.

Q:What is Ancestral Intelligence?
A: Ancestral Intelligence refers to the collective knowledge, instincts, and wisdom passed down through generations, shaped by cultural traditions, lived experiences, and deep connections to nature. It encompasses the ways our ancestors adapted to their environments, solved problems, and developed intuitive understandings of health, survival, and community. In modern contexts, ancestral intelligence is often explored in fields like cognitive science, AI, and wellness, where researchers and innovators seek to integrate ancient wisdom with emerging technologies to enhance human decision-making, resilience, and well-being.

Q: What do you mean by "Joy-Span™" and how does it differ from health-span or lifespan?
A: Joy-Span™ is Vibes AI concept that focuses on maximizing the quality of cognitive health throughout life, rather than simply extending lifespan. While life-span measures how long you live and health-span measures how long you remain physically healthy, Joy-Span™ emphasizes cognitive wellness and the ability to continue experiencing joy, meaning, and purpose. Our podcast explores how modern neurotechnology can help extend this Joy-Span™ by maintaining cognitive function and preventing decline, allowing people to remain mentally sharp and engaged throughout their lives.

Q: How can voice biomarkers help detect cognitive decline?
A: Voice biomarkers are measurable characteristics in speech patterns that can indicate changes in cognitive function. Our research, along with studies from institutions like Boston University and the Framingham Heart Study, has shown that subtle changes in speech—such as rhythm, hesitation patterns, acoustic features, and word choice—often precede clinical symptoms of cognitive decline by several years. The podcast will explores how AI technology can detect these changes earlier than traditional screenings, potentially allowing for earlier intervention and better outcomes. This technology is non-invasive and can potentially monitor cognitive health through everyday conversations.

Q: Who is the target audience for "The Vibes Lab" podcast?
A: "The Vibes Lab" is designed for anyone interested in brain health, cognitive wellness, and cutting-edge neurotechnology. This includes:

• Health-conscious individuals who want to be proactive about their brain health
• Family members of people affected by cognitive decline
• Healthcare professionals seeking to understand new technologies in the field
• Researchers and scientists interested in the commercial applications of neuroscience
• Technology enthusiasts curious about the intersection of AI and healthcare
• Anyone looking to understand how to maintain cognitive function as they age
