Question Markas in “your last question, the question for which you will be remembered.” Some interesting answers (in the form of questions) emerge:

Can we program a computer to find a 10,000-bit string that encodes more actionable wisdom than any human has ever expressed? – Scott Aronson

Are complex biological neural systems fundamentally unpredictable? – Anthony Aguirre

Are the simplest bits of information in the brain stored at the level of the neuron? – Dorsa Amir

and many more. Everyone seems to be trying their hand on the 20th anniversary.
