    Physics can discover the laws of our universe and how we can use them. That is the limit of physics. It can not explain what happened before the big bang. It can not explain how psychics can communicate with the dead. It can not explain how it is that some people can see the future. Physics can not develop equations to explain these kinds of things.

    11:26 I find the idea of a thinking universe on a large scale interesting and I hadn't known before that physicists have started to think about it. However, what I thought she would say, and this would have appeared rather self-evident to me, is that we know already that the universe can think through us. This wouldn't mean that the thinking is everywhere (in the sense of the idea that the whole universe can think), but as Sabine said herself we are part of the same universe, so apparently at least parts of it can think? So the question for me would be whether there is, in addition to the thinking that the universe already does, further thinking: among galaxies, tiny wormholes, etc.

    13:00: "That they have quantum properties means among other things that they can be in two places at the same time. We also know that those particles have masses, and mass generates a gravitational pull, which brings up the question: if you have a particle that's in two places at the same time, where does the gravitational pull go?" - Interesting point that I've not thought about before. The obvious answer would be that gravity behaves like the particle's electric charge. If a charged particle interacts with another charged particle in some observable way, then that constitutes an observation and the wave function collapses; the particle is no longer in two places at once (or rather, the amplitude of its probability distribution no longer has two peaks at different points in space). So with gravity: if the particle exchanges a graviton with another particle, then again the wave function collapses. But it's a long time since I studied quantum mechanics (and not very successfully even then), so it's probably not that at all.

    When I have heard her before she seemed to lack imagination. Now I see it's just that her imagination is strongly tempered by precise logical thought. That is the mark of a great mind, my respect for her has increased significantly. It is an annoying aspect of a scientific world dominated by sensors, people who do not delve into the subconscious as much, that these insights are frowned upon. I hope as her standing increases she becomes more free to express them.

    I don’t know if it’s the same experience with others. Being taught and given empirical meaning to what’s being taught, gives me liking and an opportunity to better interpret “stuff” and even maybe make advancement on them. I’m usually lost if I cannot pair what is taught with empirical meaning. This is why I like Sabine. She dangles these two so well. In undergraduate physics, I didn’t understand geometrical meanings of the cones in special relativity. And here she opens up so well to it.

    13:26 that means spacetime isn't the most basic property, information is, if two particles are in the same space that only means they are strongly correlated in a information point of view, and the biggest correlation between specific particles is what creates gravity, not the spacetime.
    Which is why theories can't be reconciled. one of them is basically missing "hidden variables".
    With general relativity its too easy to confuse an useful abstraction with the real thing itself. The real thing is information, not the space that information represents. Information can be duplicated, and information don't occupy space, but information can correlate with itself, that creates Shannon entropy, and that creates the effects of "gravity".
    Yes, I subscribe to the information-theoretic foundations of physics (for obvious reasons, I'm a computing scientist).

  • @benmcreynolds8581
    @benmcreynolds8581 2 роки тому +36

    In a way, she is giving motivation. Just like how dark humor can be therapeutic for a individual; being able to be self aware enough to realize when certain things get off track and it can motivate you/anyone to attempt to look at these things and try and find a new perspective/approach to solve a problem. The best inventors, philosophers, artists seem to be able to be comfortable with facing things and learning to harness the ability of how you observe things as a tool and through perspective experimenting, you can sometimes stumble upon new methods/manner's on how to solve problems in ways that others didn't notice/see/or understand. (Just like how Einstein had the ability to get lost in hypothetical thought and imagine different perspectives and then it stumbled upon his path towards learning about light/energy/physics etc.)
    That came from Einstein taking a category that previously was in a state of limbo, but he was willing to look at it and see if he could find anything else out about it.
    So if you get demotivated, or down, try and remember that even things we think we fully understand; have the total possibility that you can look at it/observe it in a new light that others haven't and totally find a new layer of complexity or depth to a topic. So even if we are faced with a lot of difficult situations, roadblock's, the best thing is the universe is full of amazing intracity so the chance of further understanding the world around us is profoundly possible and to me that's very motivational and Nature itself some how seems to have a way of always keeping that inner child like curiosity alive with-in my Life.

    Dear Sabine (I hope you read the comments), I like your work a lot! I would appreciate if you would also tell people that what you call "compatible" indeed means that our philosophical speculations are at least 50% about our own theories and not about what we call "reality". In my eyes all our theories are "compatible theories". As the observer problem clearly shows, the reality itself is and will always be beyond our knowledge. I think the works of Donald Hoffman show this very impressively.

Death might give us that answer.

    The arrow of time points forward in time because of the wave function collapse. Because causality has a speed limit every point in space sees itself as the closest to the present moment. When we look out into the universe, we see the past which is made of particles (GR). When we try to look at smaller and smaller sizes and distances, we are actually looking closer and closer to the present moment (QM). The wave property of particles appears when we start looking into the future of that particle. It is a probability wave because the future is probabilistic. Wave function collapse happens when we bring a particle into the present/past. GR is making measurements in the predictable past. QM is trying to make measurements of the probabilistic future.

      Newcastle is a bonnie city. It used to be part of Scotland and for a time it was the capitol of Scotland. Well. I do not believe in the multiverse and I think the theory was born out of arrogance and fear. The universe is vast and incomprehensible and we belittle the universe by stating there are many. This makes us feel safe. My theory is that there is some kind of subconscious interaction between the brain and the universe and that computers are evolving our brains. If the universe was a gigantic brain it would send and receive messages through thought which is instantaneous and faster than the speed of light. Obviously if it is the universe that is thinking it will not be subject to the rules of time and space as we perceive them.🌱

    I am uncertain if "Can the universe think?" is the right question as it implies a certain human characteristic.
    I am more toward "Aware" but in an abstract non human way. All information across the universe being directly connected in the now moment, and that universal connection of information as a combined set forms a kind of non human knowledge.
    To use a human analogy, the universe knows the entirety of itself in any now moment. This is not human like though.

    Physics might be the most powerful tool we have to make sense of our own existence but it is not powerful enough. Even if physics came up with a perfectly complete set of theories that precisely describe existence and for which no violations could be found we would still be asking "why universe is that way?" The answer to that question seems to be important for making sense of existence yet it is a question which no answer could completely satisfy.

    Is there another way to measure the speed of light. The way it is done now might present a rubber ruler problem.

    How do we know that we aren't already constantly jumping between universes?

    What about quantum entanglement? If one quanta reveals its self, don't the paired quanta across the universe happen NOW? They happen at the same time regardless of time.

    _My_ past present and future don't exist simultaneously in my own reference frame, only in some combinations of other reference frames. No _individual_ reference frame would perceive them _all_ as simultaneous, excepting the reference frames of some photons, were they capable of perception.

    If all particles are associated with fields isn't it possible information is associated with a field also?

    Now did she step of the red circle because she didnt pay attention
    Or
    Did she intentionally step out so we pay more attention
    Or
    Did she step out unintentionally and the realised so she kept stepping out
    Or
    Maybe she was stressed and though moving was a good idea

      She was reading her notes from a screen that was not in front of the red circle. Didn't you notice how she kept looking down at it?

    Can the future influence the past? As my memory gets less good it sometimes seems that I can remember the future in an anticipatory fashion better than I can remember the past...

    Just because a system would have an unbearably low frequency for our mortal standards, doesn't mean it can't think, just that if it does the timescales involved are much larger. Unless the expansion of the universe rules this out someway I guess?

    I've wondered if the universe was like a brain, with all those interconnecting filaments, made of galaxies, that look like the neural networks of a brain. Then I realized, that everything my consciousness interacts with comes from my brain, and when I interact with my environment, I'm not really interacting with it, but with a copy of my environment that lives in my brain. I'm probably an imperfect copier, who copies the universe and tries to fit it into my brain. Then we make A.I. and we make copies of copies of the universe, and so on and so forth, like a fractal or an infinite mirror.

    8:20 Just a minor correction; an agnostic atheist doesn't "have no opinion" on religion, they just don't think it's possible to know if a god exists or not for sure, but they've chosen not to believe in it anyway.
    Theist - believes in god/s.
    Atheist - doesn't believe in god/s.
    Gnostic - thinks it's possible to know a given thing for sure.
    Agnostic - doesn't think it's possible to know a given thing for sure.
    Agnostic Atheist - doesn't believe in god/s but thinks it's not possible to know for sure.
    Gnostic Atheist - doesn't believe in god/s and thinks it's possible to know for sure.
    Agnostic Theist - believes in god/s but doesn't think it's possible to know they exist for sure.
    Gnostic Theist - believes in god/s and thinks it's possible to know they exist for sure.
    I hope this is useful!

    People are confused because they fail to see the cycle of expansion, transition, contraction. Light only shows us what is in relative expansion. Apparent relative Cosmic Expansion and its acceleration is due to spherical expansion's radial divergence. The radial speed of the universal quantum expansion is the universal constant. Matter fractals are able to exist in this radial expansion by resisting 3 dimensions of expansion and just moving radially. This means energy transfers from atom to surrounding space will expand in radial trajectories of an expanding sphere, away from the transfer point.
    In the co-moving quantum expansion matter is moving radially @ c whilst Newtonian physics is going on between co-moving matter.
    One second worth of Newtonian physics happens over 186,000 miles. So trajectory through time in our perspective is constant motion in a straight line. 👌

    2 points....one, the universe doesn't have to think, it already knows everything, and, i love how Sabine refuses to stand in the red speaker's circle, she seems to prefer to stand to the side, in the shadows.

    There could be an Absolute Time measured not by light, but by entropy. The Universe is 13 billion years old. Everyone in the Universe agrees with this value, and also that the rate of increase of entropy in the Universe is the same for all observers. This rate of increase in entropy could be used as a unit of time.

    perhaps it is just SH's analogy, but surely information can ONLY be contained in a mind? Until it is read by a mind, a book is just paper and ink...which I guess reduces ultimately to mind-stuff. So destroying a book destroys no information.

    I HAVE READ THAT THEORY IN BUDDHIST CANON.“Don’t run back to the past. don’t hope for the future. What’s past is left behind. the future has not arrived.
    and phenomena in the present. are clearly seen in every case.
