This can exactly be an alien life in another planet but much more powerful and strong totally possible and the only way u can defeat it is by eating it
At first I really have doubts why this needed to be separate channel. Now I finally know why, Verge Science team needs to separate to tell great stories specifically on science, and grow The Verge to better as a science news brand too
The answer on how it does this is pretty simple to me, its conscious of what it's doing, its making discussions based on the environment around it. Well to me anyway.
I love your website and Im happy that you have a youtube channel..I already graduated in college long ago and stop learning..my urge to learn more ignites because of your site. I realize that there are too many things to learn and learning doesnt stop as long as we live
the problem for transit is more complex than that. the experiment has to take account for the topography of the land. mountains, rivers, etc have to be taken into account.
Never licked the floor, never ate moss, but surely everyone has had a face full of dust... Not intentionally but by mistake I mean, it takes bitter and dry as you would guess, not nice :3
This video is incredibly ironic. I had done private research at high school on this specific topic last year, inspired by the cited Hokkaido project. This scientist is located in NJ, from NJIT, and I live in NJ and had the research in a major newspaper! :)
Good video, I would NEVER have realized you guys were just starting out because the quality is so great! Btw, do you guys need a musician? I've been producing for 9 years now, and have done lots of UA-cam work. I'd love to do stuff for you guys!
+ Verge Science The woman is loud enough and very clear spoken to understand. I don't think I one word that the man said. Their voices seem to be set at different volumes. Thank you for enabling captions.
Maybe I'm missing the point but it seems that the slime mold just finds the quickest route to the food which is not necessarily solving a complex problem; like the bit where they showed that it could recreate the transportation system or solve the maze. It seemed like the mold was spreading itself out until it found the food source then used the most effective route.
I’m not a scientist but it looks like the slime mold does a bit of a radar scan where it just branches out evenly over the surface looking for places of interest. Once it finds them it condenses itself into a pathway between the food and what I assume is the homebase? Because it wants the food as efficiently as possible it creates as short a chain as is possible. Optimizing it’s transfer of food.
The algorithm analogous to what the slim uses is called 'Alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM)'. This is broadly used in distributed optimization. Check it out @Verge Science.
How about something sci-fi - the slime mold you ingest while tasting it starts building a mesh inside your body.. taking over it gradually... and taking control of your thoughts
Think to get a more comparable multi million dollar international highway you will have to insert terrains and land scape such as mountains into the equation This channel is amazing, i love these science videos
yes, this is what ive been bothered about. If a e.g. country has all their vehicles A.I. driven, all the cars connect to one 'brain'. This allows, like said above, to smooth traffic congestion. Having human drivers is causing jams as every driver thinks differently and takes different actions when handed different situations. Great video, thanks, really love this channel
I'm confused, it seems that the mold joins the dots in a straight line, which is too obvious? It also doesn't consider the topography of the land at all...like the rockies for example.
The thing they should have really shown is that could the slime make the exact same pattern everytime when given the exact same condition. That will test its optimality.
How long does it take for the slime mold to generate these graphs? They are most likely brute-forcing their pathways, and it seems to me that the algorithm it uses is to expand a circle around the areas of interest until they hit another area of interest, at least from the footage at 6:39. That's a pretty slow algorithm in terms of computer science, and would not suffice at all in a real-time situation.
These scientist are fearless, this frenchie liking the floor and tasting dirtand then they both start eating this slime that's a living fungus, and the lady also seems to know what moss tastes like. I hope they both don't turn into Venom, Carnage or anybody else.
They probably won't last a day, I've never been to India and I've been told by some of my mom's friends and documentaries that basically everyone steals from you, so I'm guessing those cars wouldn't last a day in india
@@oscarkorlowsky4938 depends on where in India. India has 1.3 B people. Over 3.5x more than the US. Culture across adjacent States is more different than the entire continent of North America. Self driving cars won't function here because machine learning is not good enough yet. We're at least 20 years out from technology that can actually accomplish such a monumental task
This is being used now in some cars. There’s “Car to X” communication where all cars can link up to gather new info on the road and all. I don’t think it avoids traffic. But that’s what google maps and Waze traffic updates do right? We have harnessed this tech somehow!
One can imagine the network of beings interconnected in a symbiotic intelligence keeping the ecological balance not necessarily with an intention but by the fact that they are seeking out resources in an intelligently efficient manner there by creating an entire network of intelligent communication.. like in the movie Avatar.
I say we give this mold too much credit and it doesn't make decisions at all, it's just related to physics. It spreads out in all directions, finds a food source. The nutrients naturally move the shortest route, resulting in the unused routes dying off.
Do you think slime mold qualifies as intelligent?
Intelligent enough to be alive.
If we're prepared to call our phones smart, then hell yeah!
Are you talking about smartphones?
Duhhh more intelligent than some of the AI systems
Yes, in a low level.
"we don't need one big brain to act smart"
This gives me _hope_
Have you ever licked the floor?
That's a no for me dawg
Man, you don't know what you're missing. You haven't lived till you've licked some floors.
I recommend truck stop bathrooms.
Nobody likes a liar
@@luigi55125 Nothing compared to men's urinals. NOOB.
The eating scared me... Like the perfect horror movie. Slime grows inside humans, learning how to use our brain and suddenly spreading insanely fast
Of course the French dude tried to eat it... 🤣
I'm pretty sure he is German...
Hes french
definitely french
And he licks floor
lol exactly
The production of this video was incredible. So hyped for this new channel.
3:45 The funny thing is that we're also essentially just made up of a bunch of proteins and lipids, and yet here I am a conscious being writing this comment.
scientists: dont eat anything within the lab
them: **eats slime** tastes like moss!
This is cool and very informative. I had no idea what Slim Mold was before this video. I think I’m gonna like this channel.
Super interesting video! Subscribed :D Can't wait to see where you take this channel
but it's not this channel's own content, the content is produced by The Verge, which has 1.9 million subscribers.
Love this new channel.
"YOU'VE TRIED IT???
-Yeah like have you ever licked the floor?"
turn the caption on, at 2:50 "scientist at the al-qaeda university in sapporo". dafuq.
edited now. :)
it still is in auto-generated caption.
Lol
Where else are you supposed to get a masters degree in bomb making?
Haha yeah. Auto translate shows that.
Guys your videos are super well made, you deserve much more subscribers
Two things
1. I like the way she talks
2. We are dumber than a brainless slime
Also subscribed
Ashish kathait i dont like the way she talks
Ashish kathait we are not dumber than a brainless slime
I may be dumber than brainless slime, but I still like the way she talks.
Ashish kathait totally agree on your 1st point
We aren't dumber than them, we're differently specialized.
Incredible work, I believe that you guys are going to make this such an amazing channel, Good luck.
This can exactly be an alien life in another planet but much more powerful and strong totally possible and the only way u can defeat it is by eating it
A moez literal "pudding slime" from FF_XII ? xD
ua-cam.com/video/TSSPgTgFXcc/v-deo.html
If "eating it" would be a solid strategy to defeat it, you could just use stomach acid or stronger acids. :p
Let me be honest. I wasn't really interested in the topic until I saw the way she presented. The production overall was fab. No doubt. Subbed.
I am pretty sure Verge Science will be a fantastic Science channel and will bridge the gap between information inaccessibility and paradox denials.

Be grateful that slime isn’t testing us in Petri dishes
Very interesting video but my big question is who licks the floor and eats moss or dust??
#whitepeople
People with more curiosity than common sense.
A bit weird, but... A useful trait for a scientist in some ways...
Ligma
Never licked the floor, never ate moss, but surely everyone has had a face full of dust...
Not intentionally but by mistake I mean, it takes bitter and dry as you would guess, not nice :3
I'm really into verge lately! They are exploring and sharing some super interesting information! Keep up the great content Verge! 👍

When u can relate slime mold to self driving and make it interesting 👌🏽 +1 subscribers
This will be the best Science Channel on Earth!!! 🌏

I came looking in the comments for you. I have the very same understanding how it works.
Women do the same.
This was very unexpected, just shows to see how serious the researchers are...cool
Love her energy! Pairs great with such an interesting topic

Keep up the good work
It's exciting to see the birth of a great new science channel. Already subscribed and loving every video.

This is a very interesting channel explaining the world we are living . Good
Absolutely mind blowing! Never thought something like this could happen, such a great opportunity.
Oh boy! The Verge + science! Heck yeah im subscribing
This is scary.. reminds me of that one movie I watched where a whole space crew got killed by a bacteria that grew into a octopus sort of thing..
I needed this video during my case study in biology class last year
Nice. Great, high quality video. Can’t wait to see what’s in store!
I just saw bunch of videos....fell in love with the channel..
I always follow The Verge and watch every video. Immediately subscribed to this new channel. Alessandra complimenti! Ottimo lavoro. Well done!
Awesome initiative, learned a little bit about slime molds. Subscribed, Thanks
Extremely well made, subscribed, looking forward to more.
Loving this New Channel
that last question simon, it's give me goosebumps

Bring those self driving cars to learn in India and those cars will learn more than travelling the entire world!! 😂
Venkat Narahari i don't think you want them to dump THEIR waste on the street too
Those self-driving cars will learn to poop on the streets.
Faizan Ali and pollute their rivers

Your tone of voice is great! Its make me want to dive in further. Eventually I follow along to the very end of vdo
That's fascinating.. All I know was aggregation of these unicellular organisms behaving like a multicellular creature but this is another level..

That maze shot is amazingly creepy
Very well presented, the pacing kept me interested entire video. Definitely subscribed. Keep good work! Au revoir :)
the first "ants" showed here are actually termites.
I noticed the same thing and "control + f'ed" the comments to see if I was the only one :)
And ants and termites are in different orders of insects
Great work! Really liked it. Subscribed!
That slime mold is smarter than me 😔
🤣
Non vedo l'ora di vedere i prossimi! Daje Ale!
Verge, thanks for being awesome,
I say we give this mold too much credit and it doesn't make decisions at all, it's just related to physics.
It spreads out in all directions, finds a food source. The nutrients naturally move the shortest route, resulting in the unused routes dying off.
I got my answer, tastes like dirt, I'm so glad he did that because now I don't feel odd for wanting to know what it tastes like.
Loved this channel
3:40 "That's a problem we need supercomputers to solve..." Proof that we're already living inside a supercomputer.
A welcome addition to my sub list!
Crazy fascinating.
Superb video and I loved it
I clicked the thumbs up but the Display was sideways. I‘d like to see the slime mold do that
Who would look at a damn slime mold and wonder "what does that taste like?"
Don't think big cooperations will be able to build a network as specificated as the slime molds
This is a really good channel...
