That was a great podcast Lex "I grew up in the Soviet Union" Fridman!
Lex Fridman needs to watch the anime: "Steins;Gate"
If there were teachers/ profs like this across the board the world would be different
If all the teachers in the world were Oxford educated once-in-a-generation communicators, the world would be a better place? I think you might be on to something.
No.
Not really , the 2nd Law of ThermoDynamics guarantees it
He's a rare human tho..
@@ShadowWizard123 if everyone understood a tiny fraction of what he does the world would be a better place...but we don't..
I see Brian Greene, I CLICK!
Great podcast Lex. :)
Same
Yup!
Yep!
It really was an awesome podcast. Deep, informative, and understandable by slow mos like me lol
Yes
I love that Lex allows his guests to respond at length, and has the acumen to follow up with astute questions. We'll done.
Vocab week at school?
Because Lex is shallow
@@MMattes C'mon, son, no need to volunteer that you're proud of being stupid. If you just said nothing, no one would know.
Brian Greene is my favorite science communicator up there with Carl Sagan. He is so articulate and easy to understand while possessing such a rich vocabulary. The way he layers his sentences is so poetic and entertaining that it's impossible to be distracted.
Dont like how hes think that humans is not that important just byproduct of "great universe".thats not encouraging way to life Greene .
@@dzenacs2011 He is not saying that humans are not important, he is saying we are not important to the universe. He is saying our importance does not come from an external source because there is not one. What we do is important to us. If life is a video game we are in sandbox mode not an RPG where we have pre-destined quests to do. If anything that makes us more important because the achievements of humanity to get this far was done without aid and by us alone.
The main difference is that Sagan was more of an intolerant atheist.
@@inglestopia understandable considering the lack of tolerance religion has had for science for 1,000s of years. Such as insisting the universe revolves around the Earth and Placing Galileo on trial for heresy for stating so and imprisoning him for stating this truth. Religion has never tolerated the truth so why should Atheists tolerate religion which is based on ancient myths and retold legends and not facts?
@@prophetofthesingularity I prefer the mindset that Greene has, he doesn't need to disqualify people for believing something or hating other beliefs like if religion as a whole is completely bad when it's not, it has also positive things. Of course, many people have died unjustly, just as religious people have died because of secular atheists, they reacted in the same way because they wanted to impose their atheistic thought, how did religions react? Religious fundamentalisms were formed, including Islamic terrorism. Both extremes are indefensible and unfortunate, but it is not good to add fuel to the fire and seek revenge on one side, so intolerance will never end. I have to read more of Sagan to be honest to have better understanding but I remember like he hated religion a lot, same case as Richard Dawkins.
Brian Greene is great because he seems socially competent with great intelligence. Not just a science/math savant who can't communicate with everyday people.
So basically he's cool.
He’s extremely intelligent and extremely eloquent! An amazing combo that I envy!
The perceived "smartest" among us is those who are able to teach others without insulting their ignorance.
Humans have a very fragile ego, and to impose new info upon it is very tricky.
Exactamente
I always thought that-
Cooliooo
Brian Greene is one of my favorite minds of our era. Beyond intelligent, and very charismatic
He’s a hack. He’s not practicing real science, he’s just re-telling fundamentally incorrect concepts that agree with the dogmatic views of Western culture.
Real science is far beyond what this hack talks about.
Hes views on aliens is prety childish. "Why they not here?"
He loves to remain blind to science.
The 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally. One aspect of the 2LoT shows that the universe is winding down, usable energy is becoming less usable. It is clear creation had to be done supernaturally yet it is still denied because people are just too proud to accept that, among other things.
@@dzenacs2011 Disappointing if true
@@dzenacs2011t's so ironic how you call his views childish but you can't even spell correctly 💀
I love how Brian is so animated when he speaks. How his hands convey his story. Truly inspiring.
Too bad he doesn't like science.

it's from fucking janna levin.
12:00 Lex breaking the 3rd wall and saying "he's onto me" while Brian debates whether or not he's conscious is comedic gold. IA Lex latest humour update seems to be functionning well. Good job devs
*This is a comment!*
Brian Greene is the best. I really wish somebody like him was teaching Physics in my highschool, maybe I would have been more interested back then.
His series on Nova, "fabric of the cosmos" is incredible.
I agree with the sentiment that he is the best, but explaining things at the high level on a TV documentary is a lot more entertaining then spending hours writing out equations over and over again. I think in the classroom setting, your interest level would have been the same
The theory of everything according to humans that believe their intellect evolved from a monkey's brain. If the light waves from the sun were 8 minutes and 20 seconds in a past dimension of Einstein's space-time then people on Earth are just imagining the infrared warmth of the sun coming up on the horizon. The communications delay between Earth and Mars is approximately 20 minutes. We're either viewing the light from Mars in the future, Einstein's past dimensions of space-time or in real time, which do you think is more logical? Einstein's relativity is wrong light has no limitation of speed; it cannot be slowed down because it isn't moving. From every vantage point in the universe light is omnidirectional-instantaneously traveling in both directions. Light and electromagnetic waves are independent of each other. According to Einstein's relativity-time dilation's, photos taken of the Earth from the Discovery Space station traveled from the past to the future violating the laws of physics, conservation of energy and common sense. According to Einstein's projectile light particle proton light has a (constant speed) of 186,000 miles per second moving through spacetime, but if light has a (constant speed) then moving clocks cannot run slow through spacetime! :-)
The speed of light according to Einstein's relativity is 186,000 miles per second, but according to physics if two mechanical watches were synchronized on earth and one traveled across the universe and back, there would be no difference in time between the mechanical watches proving the speed of light is instantaneous as the only way a mechanical watch will run slow is if you tighten the main spring. Big Bang, Einstein's relativity-time dilation and nearly all of science debunked. Using optical clocks, lasers and GPS to prove Einstein's time dilation-space-time curvature is like using a metal detector to find gold at Fort Knox. The closer you are to the electromagnetic fields, mass and gravity of the earth the more light bends aka gravitational lensing. The closer you are to the electromagnetic fields, mass and gravity of the earth the more light bends aka gravitational lensing. If the speed of light is constant then past and future dimensions of spacetime and an expanding universe would not be possible, obviously destroying the twins paradox as each twin cannot move faster or slower than the other. Einstein would have made a great used car salesman :-)
Light waves can stretch, bend-curve and occupy a state of superposition, whereas the hypothetical Einstein projectile light particle (photon), a particle that has never been observed cannot. Unlike a TV or computer monitor the images we are viewing in the universe are in real time, not a series of frames that create the appearance of a moving image. There are no DCU digital convergence circuits in space yet Einstein's disciples believe the light and moving images they see in the universe aren't really there, they're just video recorded images of the past 13.8 billion years. You could lead a cult to water, but you can't make them think. Neither time, energy nor mass can create itself into nothing, reside in nothing or expand into nothing simply because nothing has no properties. Time and space are independent of each other, not material bodies or fantasy unions that magically stretch Time, energy, and matter like a rubber band into space-time dimensions. Monkey see monkey do, the science of monkeys have brainwashed you.
Will the James Webb Telescope view the birth of the first galaxies? Nope, the universe goes on to infinity. Neither time, the atom, energy nor mass can create itself into nothing, reside in nothing or expand into nothing simply because nothing has no properties. The James Webb Space Telescope is not a time machine, you can’t travel back in time to view the beginning of the universe with telescopes that were made in the future :-). Light and electromagnetic waves are independent of each other. If science uses Einstein's wrongly theorized speed of light like an odometer to calculate past dimensions of distance and time, then using that same method to calculate forward dimensions of distance and time would mean the Big Bang was created and expanded in the future before time existed. Unlike a television or computer monitor the images we are viewing in the universe are in real time, not a series of still image frames that hypothetical Einstein projectile light particles photons create to give us the appearance of a moving image :-).
The speed of electromagnetic wave is 186,282 miles per second vs Einstein's projectile light particle proton at 186,000 miles per second. Is this a coincidence or did Einstein plagiarize yet another phenomenon to fit the math of relativity? Electromagnetic waves in space can neither slow down or speed up, this is consistent with the law of conservation of energy. If light slowed down, its energy would decrease, thereby violating the law of conservation of energy so the speed of light is instantaneous and cannot travel slower than it does. If Einstein's projectile light (particle photon) had mass it's light could not travel across the universe, high speed particles traveling at 186,000 miles per second would break the Hubble and James Webb telescope mirrors, debunking the speed of light, Big Bang, Einstein's relativity and any science that uses relativity in their theories.
Everyone knows cell phone electromagnetic radio waves travel both ways, yet Einstein's disciples believe time energy, mass and light can only travel one way back in time. If you simply run the Big Bang theory in reverse you reveal the insanity of Einstein's relativity and Big Bang theory. If the expansion of the Big Bang were true, time, energy, mass and light would be in the future from the vantage point of an expanding singularity-Big Bang and planet Earth would now reside in a past dimension of Einstein's time dilation (moving clocks run slow) space-time 13.8 billion years ago :-).
It's truly amazing how the science and politics of the left are able to keep people denying reality, there are no DCU digital convergence circuits in space, yet Einstein's disciples believe the light and moving images they see in the universe aren't really there, they're just recorded images of the past 13.8 billion years. Pretending not to notice the gross contradictions-pseudoscience in Relativity is typical of Einstein's disciples, devaluing the source of any information that's in contradiction with their beliefs-theories. You could lead a cult to water, but you can't make them think. If the light from the universe travels to past dimensions of time then it's light is also traveling into future dimensions of time (instantaneously). “And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.” a state of superposition where time and gravity run inwardly, outwardly, in all directions in the same time frame, similar to the electromagnetic field having no beginning and no end. "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End" Revelation 22:13. Disciples, remember thy 1st commandment, thou shalt not question thy lawgiver of relativity for blasphemers are the devil's pawn. Let thee not dwell in dissension of our Lord Albert, shun them, drive them back to their jungle lair amen. Albert Einstein, an autistic violinist patent clerk that had access to more papers than Suzanne Somers litter box yet creates theories with more bugs than Terminix- Magnetron
I love Brian Greene! Thanks for the series recommendation!
Light and images travel both ways, aliens in distant galaxies using similar James Webb telescopes would also see the light and images from our Milky Way galaxy but if they believe we're in the past dimension of big bang space-time they'll never bother to contact us. According to time dilation there is no universal time in the universe so all the stars galaxies and planets have different coordinates in space-time, if that were true astronomy software wouldn't work, light-speed and space travel couldn't be calculated. Explain how the James Webb space telescope can time travel into the past to view the physical properties of matter as it was 14 billion years ago with the simple technology of a telescope :-). Explain how you can see and feel the infrared warmth of the Sun coming up on Earths horizon when light-speed (Einstein's space-time) tells us the Sun is supposedly 8 minutes and 20 seconds in a past dimension of space-time . If the speed of gravity and light are 186,000 miles per second and the Sun is 8 minutes and 20 seconds in Earth's past dimension of space-time, explain how Earth and planets in our solar system can maintain orbits without gravity? :-) Relativity debunked with celestial mechanics.
The time traveling Voyager 1 space probe launched in 1977 is still communicating with Earth having left our solar system, even if it traveled another 14 billion years provided the circuitry held up it would still communicate back to Earth. Light and images travel both ways, aliens in distant galaxies using similar James Webb telescopes would also see the light and images from our Milky Way galaxy. Just because the light and images from planet Mars are assumed to take 20 minutes to reach earth does not mean the Martians have traveled into another space-time dimension where the stars, planets and galaxies are in different locations from Earth. Time and distance cannot be relative to other objects in space-time as that would violate the law of conservation of energy. To travel distance requires potential energy, an observer can have no effect on a moving objects kinetic energy-Relativity debunked. If there is no universal time in time dilation then there are no universal coordinates so time couldn't exist. Explain how moving clocks can run slow without having a universal time :-). Traveling at a different speed from the stationary clock having no universal time, all the stars, planets and galaxies would be in a different place in the universe so distance for the observer could never be calculated. When certain frequencies of light are shined onto metal electrons are ejected instantaneously without delay according to the photoelectric effect yet Einstein's disciples tell us the speed of light is limited to 186,000 miles per second. Doublethink is the act of accepting two conflicting beliefs as truth. Time and distance cannot be relative to other objects in space-time as that would violate the law of conservation of energy.
Light travels in both directions, anyone having a conversation with their friends understands this simple phenomenon yet Einstein's disciples believe people on earth are time traveling backwards and forwards in space-time relative to one another. Testing the speed light on Earth is like riding a bicycle up hill, gravity will show you down. The biggest threat to humanity is human stupidity. Explain how you can see and feel the infrared warmth of the Sun coming up on Earths horizon when light-speed (Einstein's space-time) tells us the Sun is supposedly 8 minutes and 20 seconds in a past dimension of space-time. Explain how moving clocks can run slow without having a universal time :-). Doublethink is the act of accepting two conflicting beliefs as truth.

If the speed of light is constant then past and future dimensions of spacetime and an expanding universe would not be possible, obviously destroying the twins paradox as each twin cannot move faster or slower than the other. A mirror is a wave reflector that flips images from left to right, but according to Einstein the images you see are the result of projectile light particle photons being transported into past and future dimensions of space-time. Explain how particle light photons can re-converge their molecular structures in mirrors and how this is done without violating the law of conservation of energy.
From every vantage point in the universe light is omnidirectional-instantaneously traveling in all directions (forwards and backwards through Einstein's space-time) while violating the law of conservation of energy. Explain how Einstein's projectile light particle proton can travel all directions having a (constant speed) of 186,000 miles per second. Einstein would have made a great used car salesman :-).

Einstein's projectile light particle proton has a (constant speed) of 186,000 miles per second moving through spacetime and because so wavelengths of light cannot stretch through spacetime! Red-shifts are simply the result of decelerating electrons, as moving electrons of charged electromagnetic waves-light travel through the plasma of the universe each lump (or "quanta") of energy in the electromagnetic waves are charged then discharged to the next lump, eventually the energy dissipates causing the delay in radio communications giving the appearance of time dilation - longer wavelengths in red shift. Will the James Webb Telescope view the birth of the first galaxies? Nope, the universe goes on to infinity. Neither time, the atom, energy nor mass can create itself into nothing, reside in nothing or expand into nothing simply because nothing has no properties.

Similar to a mirror light is a real-time wave reflector where light and images travel in straight lines-in all directions in space as they do on earth. The faintest stars and galaxies are neither in a past or future dimension of Einstein's space-time, they're in real-time.

The Doppler effect is wrongly conflated with cosmological Redshift. As one approaches a blowing horn the perceived pitch is higher until the horn is reached, then becomes lower as the horn is passed. This phenomenon is caused by the physical movement of a mechanical soundwave traveling through the medium of air, similar to throwing a rock in a pond, the rock creates physical movement in the medium of water. Cosmological Redshifts are merely the GoPro fisheye effect where wavelengths appear to lengthen-stretch from the phenomenon of gravitational lensing. "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End"
. According to general relativity ie gravitational lensing (a warped field of vision in telescopes) is due to (mass) between a distant light source and the observer. If that were true earths huge mass would distort the light of the observer as well making telescopes unusable. So only other planets in the universe are affected by gravitational waves? In 1916 before it was known that man could travel in space Albert Einstein based his gravitational wave theory on relativity. In 2021 most of us realize if gravitational waves existed in space astronauts would be crushed like an underwater diver traveling to the bottom of the sea. Einstein's disciples defend relativity by saying gravity is a weak force, yeah so weak it affects planets and galaxies just not astronauts, the discovery space station or droplets of water in space?

Maxwell's equations state light has a constant speed of 299792458 m/s but if light slowed down its kinetic energy would decrease, thereby violating the law of conservation of energy. To govern, limit or decelerate kinetic energy takes more kinetic energy duh

Stole my comment. Great communicator. My commute tomorrow has been blessed!
One of the dumbest smart guys around.
100% agree!
He believes in things, but can't proof anyting. Terrible scientist!
@@jacobvandijk6525 many scientists did that before they could prove theyre theory. Thats how science works in the field of physics. Newton, Einstein, Tesla,...
I love the fact that given the "right" teacher, i.e., someone articulate and able to speak in simple terms, one can pleasingly listen to studies beyond our personal journey. Letting us enjoy their voyage while remaining in our own. A well-spoken, articulate person with a thorough handle on the topic at hand and presto... the magic begins.
He just lies and hates what science shows.
The 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally. One aspect of the 2LoT shows that the universe is winding down, usable energy is becoming less usable. It is clear creation had to be done supernaturally yet it is still denied because people are just too proud to accept that, among other things.

"Deep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense. But the real universe is always one step beyond logic." - Frank Herbert, Dune
Seems to be true.
it can still be logical but you dont have the information to come to the fitting conclusion
The universe is both logical and chaotic. Just look at what we know about quantum physics & fractals (Chaos theory)
@@morgangreen2601 Yeah, logic is all relative to the intelligence of the observer. And ofc the information you have.
Or maybe what we consider logic is always one step behind the universe.

Brian Greene is the man.
Because he explains stuff so well
This is why I love Physics and Mathematics. Great guest!
Brian's NOVA documentary, The Elegant Universe, is what first piqued my interest in physics. That documentary also has a very special place in my heart because it was the only thing that would help sooth my daughter to sleep when she was an infant. :)

Same story and "The Elegant Universe" the documentary and the book peaked my interest in physics and also I liked this episode before watching/listening
OOOh man this is one of my favorit person to listen to, thanks Lex
Yeah, the guy is great. Unfortunately we have to listen to little Lexi talk cause he isn't too smart. neither is his little daddy. Hate the guy. Great guest though!
@@mattolivier1835 never seen someone hate on lex lol
@@bchandy98 He's annoying. Hate him. And he's super statist.
Brian Greene is by FAR one of the most well spoken and insightful people of these subjects that can easily speak to the lay.
I have listened to & read SO MUCH from Brian Greene, and yet he always manages to blow my mind with something new.
Brian Greene is one of favorite guests! I can listen to him all day
Brian Greene's Nova program back in '07 changed how I viewed the world. Shout out to one of the OG's of scientific communication.
Same same :)
Brian Greene is one of my all-time favorites bc he articulates his perspective spectacularly. Best guest I’ve seen on your channel Alex. Side note, I also love the dark backgrounds and clothes as most of my watching occurs late at night.
Brian is such an excellent communicator. I love listening to him
You can quote me Lex: “The physics we think we understand today is but a mere fraction of a fraction of what’s really there and how things really work.”
Yes, and most of the advanced life is probably a lot further on with revealing it.
Brian Greene's UA-cam videos was one of the few things positive that came out of the pandemic. He has a way of making even the most difficult topics understandable for the average person
Yes! The Daily Equation was amazing. It's truly bonkers that a man this brilliant and famous took the time out of his day to answer literally ANY question posed to him for three hours a day, 5 days a week.
He helps you understand that you have no chance of understanding it
So true! One of the best teachers of our time :)
These men need scientology! Look at the success Tom Cruise has with the help of scientology!
Brian Greene is such an extremely amazing human being. He is so perfectly balanced, so intelligent, so knowledgeable. This is no coincidence he's now right here on the best podcast of all times. Thank you Lex, for distributing so much quality to the world. You really are a true legend. Someone who our civilization will remember for the longest time for only the best reasons. You are such a profoundly good human being, I admire you so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything that you are and everything that you do Lex.
I started to be obsesed with Brian's books years ago and I recently discovered Lex's channel and spent days and nights listening to it. Now I found out two of my favourite people had a podcast together!! WoW❤
Arithmetically, I cannot figure out how you make time to prep and do all of these multi-hour interviews and still have a day job as well.
I cannot even make time to watch one in ten of them, but I really appreciate it all when you talk with a guy like Brian Greene. Thanks for your hard work.
What kind of day job does lex do ???
Mathematically*
@@honeyahlawat2917 the p.o.s. is a car salesmen… says a lot about his character …
@@macysondheim It's just arithmetic; nothing fancy involved. Unless, of course, Lex moves so fast that there is a relativistic effect, which might explain how he does it.
If we're here for the blink of an eye on a cosmic scale, then where does a lunch break fall? Just started listening and have to get back to work. 😭
A lunch break is just a cosmic fart.
@@pcproffy no, a cosmic fart is a star's entire life-cycle.
The lunch break infinitesimally small. So small in fact that it can not be perceived by our technology
equivalent to .00000024 seconds cosmically, (if the cosmic blink of an eye is at a value of .33 seconds)
Amazing how well he express verbally and not verbally all the ideas and responds every single of the questions asked. 👏
Great convo. Brian is the reason I fell in love with physics almost 20 years ago and he still keeps me fascinated today
This episode felt like it was only 30 minutes long! Great conversation!
Exactly what I thought - it flew by!
YES! This is the man who got me interested in science and physics! Great work Lex.
Same :)
"Time is the most essential quality of experience while simultaneously being the most mysterious" - Thought provoking and brilliant. I have lost count of time trying to digest that statement.
Loosing count at that digestion for some reason makes me think of a litebrite board and the pegs. Although by themselves they remain the same physically... When they come together in the process of a being "digesting" by the "user", that makes an experience and an expression. Also meant to be taken apart. Not be be stuck in one particular pattern. As is the life cycle of the digestion process.
I love it, this makes my mind feel at ease with everything especially death and nothingness. the concept of space and time itself really fills me with joy, I used to get really anxious about it all but listening to these kind of podcasts puts me at such ease, I don't believe in god, never have and never will but I do believe in such a great force of energy, somewhere everything, every being, everyone came from together.
Sounds like you believe in God
@@mathewgladden8914 I think your wrong .
It's the notion that all particles of energy were once one , singularity that I think the original poster feels they belong to the universe so although we pass on/die the universe will go on and that in itself gives comfort to them .
Or its pantheism of sorts
Well stated, friend.
Higher level Christian consciousness knows that God is Spirit. Not a father in heaven with genitals.
Jesus spoke in parables for a reason. The positive use of energy is Agape Love, introduced to the world 🌎 by Jesus.
What was once called the Holy Ghost, then called the Holy Spirit, could now be referred to as Energy.
Positive Loving Energy.
That can neither be created nor destroyed...
I miss him so much. I watched everything from World Science Festival in first month of lockdown.
He's been putting out like a video every few weeks lately.
Hell yeah! Brian Greene is one of the best public outreach figures in physics. So hyped you got a interview with him
Right on !
Honestly after the first 5 min I really had to look at things from a different perspective and in a more positive outlook. This was definitely eye opening for me in a lot of ways. Appreciate this perspective for sure.
I watch slot of podcasts and other stuff on UA-cam. And I really like the way you come across your smart witty and there is great information that Comes from them. Your algorithm is spot on as it pushes you over people I've followed for years. Keep up the good work 💪👍
Brian is such a wonderful communicator.Never get tired of listening to him.
Briane greene is so good at explaining things thoroughly i actually understand 95% of what he is talking about
Its not about you.
@@TailoredReaction yet here u are making it about you by getting offended by a compliment that was made to Brian.
It’s not about you.
@@lizzymonster Americans are just clueless.
That’s how you can tell someone is truly knowledgeable on a subject - they can explain complex issues in a way you or I can understand. If you enjoyed this, the episode with Alex Fillippenko should be interesting to you.
He doesn't know what he's talking about.
The 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally. One aspect of the 2LoT shows that the universe is winding down, usable energy is becoming less usable. It is clear creation had to be done supernaturally yet it is still denied because people are just too proud to accept that, among other things.
I love watching the videos on the world science Channel that Brian Green hosts. He's right up there with Brian Cox as far as being very engaging, intelligent and able to take such large concepts and make them understandable and fascinating to the layman.
Incredible incredible interview and discussion. Thanks to you both.
Brian is by far the most watched JRE episode for me! Absolutely love listening to this man
Brian’s great but so is the other Brian( Cox).
@@geraldbutler5484 Meh...
I hope this convinced Brian to go with the 3 hour version next time, this is probably the first interview which he didn't need to bring up the "ball on a sheet" analogy.
Well done Lex!
I don't understand why the mystery of consciousness would go away if robots randomly start having it. That just makes it even more fascinating and mysterious to me lol
That would definitely disprove god one and for all
To describe conciousness as fascinating ....wouldn't you first have to be able to define what exactly it actually is ,(something we cannot do).
@@kenadams5504 Doesn't fascinating almost always describe something we don't fully understand?
@@StickHits I don't understand why Russia is attacking its neighbouring Country...and I wouldn't say their Policies are fascinating .Having said that , in Science , the counter-intuitive traits of Quantum Mechanics /Relativety are fascinating .
I really like this guys outlook..i miss being this thankful and humble and quick to recover from life's head slams.
Brian is so seamlessly, fluidly articulate. What a pleasure. Thank you
Loved it, get Brian back for another session in the future. By the way Lex , your podcast is just the best
"10,000 likes" VS "0 dislikes"
Best review possible.
🥇🥇🥇
@Lex Fridman
Being a normal human, not having degrees in robotics, science, string theory or anything remotely associated with this conversation. I must admit much of this conversation is on a plateau beyond my comprehension, but being a normal, understanding seeking entity, I love listening to these 2 share their thoughts, knowing they too have lapses in understanding the totality of these subjects. How long does one have to exist to begin to feel a faint understanding of life, the universe, the ultimate destination of we silly humanoids. If I could jump a million years, a billion years, 100 billion years, will this conversation still be playing in my mind, still seeking the answers. Thanks Brian and Lex for this awesome conversation.
Omg so stoked to spark one up to this..two of my favorites!!!
Yup but to do the same haahha
So inspiring as always, thanks Lex. I'd really love to see you interviewing the philosopher Franco Berardi (have a look on one of his conferences on you tube or articles around the web).
Brian is so great at this because he's able such a great story teller. It's hard to make it interesting. He has an almost Carl Sagan vibe to him.
Rogan hasn’t had many of these science educators back on in a long time. I’m glad to see you’re giving them light . I know Brian Cox is likely very busy but he’s always fascinating to listen to if you can book him
Thank you Lex for all the great interviews that you do. I really enjoy these intellectual conversations.
Excellent! Thank you both for this sharing of scientific perspective and enthusiasm!
The immensity of the universe, the power! It really makes my day every day!
I love this guy's attitude towards consciousness! It's so refreshing 🦋
No, it’s not.
tnx for showing your understanding, keep on going!
This was an EXCELLENT podcast. Getting at the grips of what makes us, us; and what may make other sentient beings, themselves. An incredible intertwine of philosophy and physics!
Keep sippin that COPIUM. The attitude of of we can't answer this so let's brush over it and proceed to step 2, invalidates everything.
@@calapsesathir4408 uh, no YOU'RE sipping insane amounts of copium for being unable to understand anything that the geniuses think about, and rather than attempting to understand it, you resort to your COPIUM way by making nonsensical comments about it.
Geniuses are out there discovering incredible stuff, and with the right mindset. But you sir can keep up with the copium
Absolutely compelling content.
Thanks Lex, thanks very much-
Love listening to these on midnight shift on my break
Lex you have become an amazing interviewer. Not everyone can hold a conversation with such a mind. Bravo
Ah, I love listening to an intelligent conversation. Great questions, great insight. Thank you again Lex.
Wonderful conversation guys!
lol nice that he mentioned peter woit also from columbia. Was so happy to see lex fridman also talk to brian greene after seeing he interviewed peter woit as well. on string theory
Fantastic discussion. Thanks for sharing it because there is no way I can have a discussion like this with anyone I know.
Amazing podcast, two giants Lex and Brian. Was waiting for this. Thank you so much for all that you do, both of you!
This was the best podcast I think I've ever seen. Thanks man.
love Brian Greene, watch all videos with him, would watch hours and hours, and then watch it again ; the way he explains all is easy to understand ; he's highly intelligent human as well, make me vey happy we have people like Brian Greene, love love him :)
More guests like Brian, please! Listening to him is so riveting.
One of the best conversations yet!! Thanks to Lex and Brian for this amazing and inspiring content.
Thank you Lex. Can’t get enough of Brian Greene. And you two are so perfectly complementary.
Idk how i got here i fell asleep on my phone but i watched a total of 4 hours of these podcasts.
Brian Greene is a national treasure! His last book is one of the best I have ever read.
I love this so much. Thank you for having him on!
Got huge admiration and respect for Brian Greene. He has a great knack of articulating complex things and making it accessible for the layman.
My favorite intellectual today and one of my all time favorite writers! Just pure brilliancy!
Saw your whole podcast on JRE and I would love to give Lex a good amount of engagement by watching this whole podcast ❤️
Maybe I’m crazy and just imagining things but it feels like you’ve improved greatly in the quality of questions that you ask
Hi Lex Fridman!...I truly love the way your guest explains things here...🌲
We need another Brian Greene episode soon!
Oh HELL YEAH, Brian Greene is my #1 favorite physicist, I could listen to him for hours.
How comes did you not have previous conversation with this guy, I was expecting part 2.
18:00 good point from Fridman. Perhaps consciousness is a type of very complex and advance “sensors” that we have evolved into, to help intelligent beings experience & react to each other
I like this idea of fear of death that was discussed. I believe we got it all wrong. One can never stop existing at least from ones' own perspective. Remember when you went to sleep and then you woke up? Do you know how much time has passed while you slept? Your experience might tell you it was approximately 8 hours but you don't really know. Might have been 10 years. For you it's only the momement just before you lost conciousness and then regained it again. So when you die there may have trillions of years passed before your conciousness reappears again but from your own perspective it's a continuous experience. You may not remember what happened before but it is still YOU.
Lex and Brian Greene, that's a duo I would watch until the end of time. I can't describe how much I love these podcasts where there are scientists from physics and astronomy.
Brian: "I'm not fully convinced you're a concious being..."
Lex: *Looks at camera* "He's onto me."
Hahaha
Lex has such a deep sense of humor!
Happens at 11:51
Dudes low key hilarious
"Rocks will probably stay quiet on the matter."
No.
I just love Dr. B. Green, he’s so smart and sensible, capable to get to the intricacies of the existence . Thank you Lex for all the beautiful minds you share with us, the commons
"The universe is not about pleasing any individual. It is what it is" love that
11:58 I’m convinced Lex is an AI overlord gathering all the worlds intellects on his podcast to learn all the worlds knowledge to perfect his algorithm before overthrowing mankind.
The second I heard those words I immediately scrolled down to see who posted about it, and if no one, I was ready to say the same
Lol...and then the mischievous look that Lex gives the camera.
Still more human than the thing from Facebook
Npc confirmed 😝
Great podcast, love Brian Greene. Please don't put your camera on automatic. The lighting is always the same thru the podcast, ISO (exposure) should be fixed. This would eliminate the exposure/light fluctuations in the video. ;)
HI Lex...I really love this podcast!Thank you...This is an eye opener...Meta Leigh
When Dr. Greene brought up the Feynman interview about the wonder of experience, I stood up and clapped. I read "The elegant universe" in 2006 and it remains one of the most beautiful books ever written by humans! 👏👏👏
These men need scientology! Look at the success Tom Cruise has with the help of scientology!
An excellent interview. Thanks Lex. Been looking forward for this one for a long time.
I love Brians Voice, it so soothing. I love how lex always asks the questions to physicists that I would want to ask. Thank you so much lex for this. I've been here since this was AI podcast. :P I literally dance when you bring someone from STEM field. Your podcasts and reading the books by just people who come here have completely redesigned the way I think. :D
thx for putting up pics of the scientists when mentioned. good idea!
Time, is most likely an emergent phenomenon, from a progressive series of events as seen by the observer?
I would love to see this discussion with Micheal Levin.
It’s interesting to see how they think alike but from such different places.
