“There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

It would be easier to erase their memory, or make them vanish into oblivion. I tell my wife, if I ever figure it out, I will likely disappear without a trace.... unless the Alphabets get me first...😂
It has. It started with the Dream Time, then it shifted into a plate supported on the back of four elephants being carried across the universe on the back of a tortoise. Then came the crystal spheres, then the sun centered solar system, then Einstein, them quantum stuff. It keeps getting more complicated in order to keep us busy.

I know what John's narration reminds me of! When I grew up in Toronto we had a planetarium (now defunct), and I attended it numerous times. As we laid back in the specially-built seats and stared up as the stellar landscape, the guy running the show would narrate in a calm, comforting voice. It was almost as if he was trying his best to simply be an accompanyment to the show, not the focal point, and speaking in any other manner would be an affront to the heavens. All right Godier, for bringing back those memories I'm going to get one of your books. Supermind, I think, unless somebody has a different idea.
I've been thinking about the one and only planetarium I visited as a child. When I finally get my own house, I am thinking a fully adjustable and reclining chair and an upward-facing projector (hooked up to a pc with universe sandbox) might do the trick....

I bet it really cool to be smart. I think I understood the word THE. I have tried wrapping my mind around things like this. You guys talk about science so passionately. I’d like that. I’m sure the content was awesome. It had pretty colors and flashing lights. That was fun.
If you got to hear about these things at length and in context, they’d be understandable, but no less amazing. You need to learn some Newtonian mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism… then particle physics, quantum mechanics, relativity, then finally quantum field theory. You can learn the ideas without the math, but learning the math will made it more believable because you can follow the derivations.
On a quantum level you understand what you're viewing while viewing it, when not viewing it you're stuck in a perpetual state of fluctuating between knowing and not knowing. Or something far simpler and more likely. One of those two lol.
Consider studying physics. It's a million time more exciting to rediscover the whole humanity's knowledge of it, and this is exactly what you do while learning. You'll be Archimedes, then Galileo, then Newton...
@Cy "kkm" K'Nelson I always enjoy reading your posts, but this one was succinctly beautiful. Eratosthenes measuring earth so long ago, Maxwell, Einstein. Science is the greatest adventure of humanity and best of all it can be relived as you say through studying its history and how our understanding came to be.
@@cykkm I understand physics on a basic level, I would have loved to have been able to study it on a higher level, but financial support just wasn't there so I've tried my best to educate myself as much as possible. I find JMGs works extremely fascinating and quite educational.. even if a lot of it is considered sci fi. I still think he's probably spot on on a lot of his theories.
@@JohnMichaelGodier 😊 _(Blushes.)_ Oh, I never expected to receive such an accolade from you, John, thank you, it really warmed my heart. People are more curious animals than even cats. The curiosity to explain. Every human culture has creation myths about the Earth and the heavens. When I see on YT or Twitter that people are curious and suddenly halt as if at a barrier, or, more often, get an illusion of knowledge, I feel an ethical obligation to give a push to the former or strongly disillusion the latter. I know I'm shifting sand against the tide, but maybe, just maybe, if I make one single fellow human being who's genuinely curious about science to make that step, and then give a similar impetus to others, I'll start a self-sustaining chain. If I would convince two, I'll make it exponentially-growing. I sound like an idealist. But, after studying W.K.Clifford's ethics and learning about his epistemic responsibility, what should I do next-shelve it to the dusty ceiling of my mind, and use it to sound smarter than I am at a party? No point, not my thing, albeit I see it quite often. Every theory of ethics-and ethics is part of the philosophy of knowledge!-comes with moral, the practical adherence to it. If I buy his theory, I can't help but act according to it. So... am I an _informed idealist?_ 🤓 I'm terrified by the thought of one or, possibly, two step that have been missed by every complex society before our current one, the reason why scientific and technological humanity may be even more alone in the Universe. There were so many highly developed civilizations in the past, with their highest art, philosophy, astronomy: Babylonians, Greeks, Chinese, Islamic Golden Age, which preserved Greeks for the Westerners when they forgot the language... “The fall of civilizations” podcast has a few dozen episodes already and counting (and I has been an ardent student of everything Roman for good 20 years, from the semi-mythical founding of Rome to its sad end). Not a single one of these civilizations developed science as an epistemic mode. Ionian Greeks come close once, tho; this gives me some hope. Our “Western,” in a wide sense, civilization is also a sample of one. We perceive both science and technology, which is in fact only science's, ehm... droppings, as a given. (Most people even in tech have a misconception that the goal of science is to produce technology.) What if that's another step that is not taken? You said that humans have been technological since they dug out and split suitable stones and attached them to sticks; I don't share that view. (BTW, I didn't comprehend the intricacy of toolmaking achieved by the biologically modern human societies of the Ice Age before I came across Brian Fagan's _Cro-magnon._ There had also been a sharp cultural explosion in H. Sapiens some ~50kya, which is attributed to the development of language, although that's speculative.) Mine sets a higher bar: we've become technological with the industrial revolution. When our civilization will have gone down-and so far, all, without exception, have-will those who come after us be scientific and technological? I'm seeing another filter on the way to what we call “alien civilizations,” in a different sense of the word. What if Attic pinnacle of art and philosophy is closer to the norm, and Western science, which arose only once in history, is a freaky accident? And, there's another step up taken for granted: technological explosion as a byproduct of science. But is technology inevitably caused by science? Seems likely, but.. Science's only real goal is science itself. Science seems to need technology: after a few decades of constructing particle accelerators, we've likely hit the wall-Higgs' confirmed, SuSy, in any sensible form, dead, Planck scale unachievable. A bleep in history, and we _happened_ to have the tech. We now want space-based instruments to observe processes in the Universe so energetic that they're unthinkable to produce in a lab. But this is still anthropocentric; we shoot them up into orbit because of our opaque atmosphere. But phosphorus-based, oxygen redox is not the only biochemistry even on Earth. Someone with sulfur-based energy storage and transport, evolved on a planet with barely any atmosphere and extracting energy from thermal gradients on their planet may not need to put their instruments into orbit. And, being an autothroph, he has no fear of hunger, the biggest ever driver for human development. Longing for power and wealth is another, but that is not necessary for intelligence either: our natural ancestry, strictly hierarchically organized primate troops, aggressively held together by their alphas is possibly not the only path to higher intelligence. (And we're kinda lucky: had we descended from a more baboon-minded ancestor, we would have probably still used intelligence for wars and raids on neighbors alone, possibly with stone axes to this day-ain't anyone got time for that invention.) If the planet is in 1:1 resonance with the star, like most should be, there's only a narrow terminator that is livable; no desire to travel places within own world: the sights are all the same, no point; and this may translate into the lack of even an idea of to travel to other worlds. Science may be so wonderful in itself that it may keep one busy, satisfying his curiosity for lifetime. A planet of sedentary scientists, descended from non-social, non-competitive loner autothrops, connected with a naturally co-evolved underground “internet” of symbiotic fungi: how's that? Why would they need technology at the scale we use it? Not a very strong argument, just a case to consider whether tech and science are as inseparable as we accept without much though. They may be separate filters. The linear upward development of humanity, so-called “progress,” is a Western myth-we have our myths too, like any culture/civilization before us had; in reality, it has been a long chain of ups and downs, knowledge lost and rediscovered, lost again and rediscovered again. What our civilization has achieved, for the first time in history ever, is both unprecedented and unfathomable. Poincare was probably the last person in our civilization who knew it all, and only in mathematics and physics, while knowing all that which the civilization knew was the norm for an educated Attic philosopher or an Islamic Golden Age polymath. But we've been technological _sensu primo_ for less than 250 years. Without evidence, I can't add “and forever from now on.” What terrifies me when I overdose on coffee to jitters, is whether intelligence's becoming scientific and then technological is only a freaky temporary accident even on this planet. We're not “just another primate,” as Sapolsky brilliantly shows, but we are primates indeed, with all the innate conflicting impulses to submit to alpha's authority and to overthrow alpha's authority. Unlike the baboons, we are wired with circuits that _potentially_ control these impulses and _can learn_ to use them. I would worry less if more people understood science and fewer believed in QAnon (quite possibly, it's the TV and not nuclear weapons that has been the most dangerous use of technology: nukes are in trained hands, but everybody has been allowed to plop their tired body into a comfy chair and relax before the screen without a mandatory 3-month-long mental hygiene training). I'm not a sage: where we are now has no reference to compare with in the past, not even close. But it's dangerous to unlearn who we really are, for we are really dangerous to what we think of ourselves. Going back the full circle, I'm convinced that more education never hurts a society. But what can I do... Oh. Brevity is not among my merits...
Just see this pop up my FAVOURITE playlist in the whole wide universe I suppose multiverse even and my favourite science and physics subject . Its like you listen to my thoughts JMG . Just off to beddy byes too so this is first up tonight . Thanks so very much.
2:15 Fun thing about magnetic fields -- these are vector fields, so, effectively, you are always only ever in _one._ The thing the magnetic field cares about, in a sense, is the relative orientation of two objects in terms of their charge distributions -- it tries to make these things point the same way. The magnetic field at any given location can only point in a single direction; this is like saying there is only one answer to where the nearest concentration of charge is -- the magnetic field for any given distribution of charges is a well-defined, _unique_ solution. This is why magnetic fields form domains of smooth, continuously varying field direction. Because these fields can't intersect or overlap, they are able to push and pull on one another at a distance, at the speed of light, and the resulting field lines conform to the potential energy gradient between charge concentrations. What this means: for all of its (spooky) anisotropy, if you will forgive a slight anthropomorphization, this one part of the universe cares _very much_ which direction you're looking in.
Good vid. Too many people butcher the quantum stuff and interpret it falsely or fantastically. Though, I'm not surprised. All your stuff is well-educated/researched.
My question is, could the Higgs field be the answer to the Inflaton issue as well? Basically, in the earlier universe it bogged everything down less? Perhaps due to some half-life of the Higgs Boson, or some sort? Possibly even just acting that way due to the high energy state of the early universe?
The quantum mind has every element needed to start a religion. It basically sounds like describing a god. Maybe that's all religion really is, an ancient understanding of the quantum consciousness put into words, but meanings of the words change and/or are forgotten.
Yeah except its nonsense. Observing something with instruments without consciousness also works in fixing the state or position of something so the whole idea about consciousness presented here is nonsense.
That pizza explanation was a PHENOMENAL analogy for superposition - you have a gift for taking bizarre and complex concepts and bringing them to those of us non-scientists!
There is an idea in some Buddhist schools of thought that science should not be studied as it leads to endless distractions. To this I have said that we are supposed to help others end their own suffering and science can be a tool whereby future generations can lessen their sufferings. I wonder though if there will be some point at which studying the quantum world will become an endless distraction or will concrete benefits be brought out which help people end suffering.
ive been an astronomy nerd since i was like 6 years old and stuff like this just never gets old for me. im not a nerd by any other means, i fuckin hated school and im not knowledgeable in really any subjects whatsoever, but space and quantum physics are different. theyre too far interesting to be ignored
One thing that confuses me about inflation (lots of other things do to, but let's stick with this one) We know the age of the universe by back calculating the current expansion of the universe; and re-winding it as it were. But that calculation surely assumes the rate of expansion was constant. If we have a period of massive inflation, unless we know exactly how fast that was and its duration, I don't see how we can extrapolate the age of the universe from what we see now. I appreciate far cleverer people than me are totally on board with inflation, and that it's a good expansion for the homogenous nature of the universe, so there must be an answer; but could anyone be kind enough to explain it to me as one might a moderately intelligent golden retriever?
The hyperinflationary period is a hypothetical period after the big bang, but before what physicists can observe. You are right that inflation being consistent is a assumption. Physics uses that assumption because assuming counter to it would not be helpful. If we assume inflation has not been consistent, we can't draw any conclusions at all. It works much the same way as the assumption we are conscious or have free will. It's just not helpful to assume otherwise.
It’s string theory. That’s the problem with it. There were a bunch of different version, then they realized they were all the same, so that string theory can predict anything, when it was founded it was believed it would predict everythin (eg the 40 or so parameters in the standard model)
Chaos is like the # of unique ways you can crease a sheet of paper by folding it, order is like the # of ways you can symmetrically fold the sheet into a bird ( symmetrical because minimal diffusion occurs in 1 dimensional, opposite directions like strand, with segments that oscillate like beads, with enough pressure one can interlock a pattern that take times to untangled in a value that takes into account the inverse square model, mainly proof of reaching temporary Singularity of a different kind before the emergence of strand in question
I hate when I order a pizza, and right when I open the box, quantum fluctuations happen and it turns into a tentacle monster, and then the pizza delivery man starts stripping, and then a police officer arrives and tells me I'm under arrest.
Don't worry. That's just the content with which your Boltzmann brain came into existence. There is no pizza, tentacle monster, policeman or any nude delivery guys. And there is no me commenting on this either. Just your brain.
Consciousness is a huge brain teaser/paradox to me and so it made me really excited to hear you talk about the potential crossover with the quantum realm. I would love to hear more about similar questions or theories that have been raised about consciousness by people smarter than I 😁
Only philosophy would say consciousness is a paradox, not science. The "quality or state of being aware especially of something within oneself", is not some mythical thing, it's just a process of the inputs we receive from our senses, and the memory of it. While quantum effects may play a role, it is not required to understand the vast majority of neuroscience. You do realize, that most animals meet that criteria, by definition, right? It's not so special.
IMO CONSCIOUSNESS HAS ITS OWN PARTICLE/WAVE💯😮💨IN THE SAME WAY THERE IS A "GRAVITON" PARTICLE/WAVE THAT CONTROLS GRAVITY I BELIEVE THERE IS A "SPIRITON" / "CONSCIOUSNESS-TON" THAT MAKES UP SENTIENCE💯EVENTUALLY WE WILL BE ABLE 2 MEASURE IT && EVEN CONTROL IT‼️😮💨
1. The dangerous Higgs boson 2. The incomprehensible inflaton 3. Weakly interacting particles 4. The undetectable graviton 5. Even weaker than gravity 6. The sterile neutrino 7. Dark photons 8. Axions 9. The leptoquark 10. The quantum mind
What if the point in space where the big bang first came to be is too far for us to see, but say every 100billion years it blows again and basically paints over the old universe with a new one
The last one seems the most intriguing because it's the source of all our experience. The philosopher Bernardo Kastrup even calls the universe as Mind at Large
Observing something with instruments without consciousness also works in fixing the state or position of something so the whole idea about consciousness presented here is nonsense
@@enterthevoidIi So its just measuring thats at play right? I mean technically even if its observed with instruments only some conscious being has to look at those results at some point, so technically there is still a consciousness involved at some point but yes its not necessarily related whatsoever
I don't really go all in on reductive physicalism, but this was interesting content. P.S. You remind me of the "Good Idea, Bad Idea" narrator from the Animaniacs.
True story, I got lost following a "bridge out" detour that was poorly marked. I finally pulled over and tried to ask the GPS where I was and to route me home. I was literally nowhere, like cornfields and the closest town was like, a road and closed up buildings. My exact exasperated question to the GPS is "Ok, where am I?". The GPS said, and not kidding here, "You are home. Why?". I was at least 50-60 miles from my home, if not more. I thought "Hmmm, maybe I am dreaming and I AM at home". Then I thought "Maybe my home IS this cornfield." LOL. So I asked again, this time it told me I was in a totally different state from mine. Clearly it was just not receiving a signal. Or was it?
{What if we are misunderstanding what we're observing? And, What we aren't observing?} Lol (The use of gravitational magnetospheres as a analogy is really nice) *I wonder how the electromagnetic force behaves in space, on massive scales, and really small scales?" Maybe we don't understand how massive things the scale of Galaxies behave? *I really wonder if Electromagnetism plays more of a crucial role in many different aspects of the Universe then we currently understand? Gravity, such a important aspect of nature yet seems like we don't understand "all the details about it yet" (In the form of a analogy) it really does seem like aspects of Gravity share similarities with the electromagnetic force. Like Static charge's act upon small dust particles & allow them to acquire mass to begin gaining density. We can't have light/radiation, electricity without the electromagnetic force. The strong nuclear force seems to share similar charge behavior as well, so does chemistry. It uses +/- charges to bond compound's. I wonder if these aspects of Nature have more of a connection than we currently understand? Maybe things on different levels, strengths, size's, scales, could alter the behavior of a force we already know about. Maybe just certain things are needed, Such as temperature, density, pressure, velocity/rotation, energy/frequency/vibration, viscosity, etc. Think of how star's are created after enough mass is acquired? Radiation, light, magnetospheres, rotational velocities. They all are so crucial to Nature and all require aspects of the electromagnetic force for it to even exist.. look at a graph that shows the levels where different materials transition into different states of matter: maybe their are threshold points of (density, rotation, heat, atmospheric pressure, etc.) It's just a gut feeling I have after watching tons of science videos covering the behavior of the Universe around us. (the only way we can obtain growth and learn the things we are right about and the things need slight adjustment on? Is to be willing to allow ourselves to be open and thinking from all perspectives even on things we think we already know about.
I’m thinking that, what we are learning is mostly how much we don’t know and how clueless we are. We flail for theories that explain mysteries but I suspect we are viewing the universe through a keyhole and may never know, at least in this life. By the way, I’ve started Supermind. Captivating so far!
"In which we liive - just kidding." Yeah... I KNOW what you're doing mister! You woke me up with this deviation from the liiiive routine lol. I guess no one knows your trolling bec. everyone is deeply sleeping until they reach the end xD.
Well actually there are certain, equally valid, interpretations of QM that state the superposition/wavefunction is not real and everything is fully deterministic, but non local effects are real, such as with pilot wave or many worlds.
~I dare say, I enjoyed THIS edition of "JMG Counts to 10", quite immensely. Perhaps more than any prior U.L.s. The reason for this largely has to do with the intensity, of thought provocation it engendered in Me, by the subject matter. IMO. Alas, though I'm stretching my comment to my preferred limits, I cannot expound much further here without excessive texting. I'll settle with a fundamental notion, usually understated due to A.E.Poe's "Purloined Letter Effect". - A sort of inverse of the "Forest Hidden because of the Trees." A.K.A. The logistics of "Things Hidden (Because they Are) IN Plain Sight." ⚛ Indeed There seems to be an "Event Horizon", at the outer limits of two opposite observable spatial borders -At both the Planck extremities. At Macro and Micro cosmic realms. Unlike gravitational ones we don't "fall" into these, just the opposite. Yet still, horizons of events they seem to be. Beyond the absolute ceiling of the colossal. And the Quantum "spatial/Temporal Floor" of the most minuscule. ~That The Universe and everything in it is in between...and HAS a beginning, an existential period... and an end...is ONE anthropocentric "Syntax" we use. There are Others. A description of a totally different, yet equally valid Order of reality... ♻ What IS perceptible, is as, or perhaps a bit less valuable of a teacher, than that which is NOT. Stillness gives MEANING to Movement. The space between notes are as much a constituent of Music. One of the rudimentary conclusions I am compelled to draw is that The The Eye does Not See Itself - EXCEPT Via Reflection... This goes without any requisite inference to the metaphysical, but at least begs the primary question: Besides a "Description & Interpretation subjectively"...What is it that we are Observing, with the EYE of our personal consciousness? A reflection? (BTW Conscious awareness has a gravitational event horizon or limit. De-animation. Beyond which is the SAME place a flame goes when extinguished.) The answers might be astonishingly simple, in "plain sight"... but ...the ramifications may be almost impossible to apprehend...and yet.. I feel We NEED to understand, to break the mirror of self reflection. In order to advance / evolve further or to even survive at all ... Reach The next level... ♾ ~ In any case, An Excellent Job Mr. Godier. Really Terrific.💥💥💥💥
You could hand out empty boxes or serve empty plates and tell the customers that their pizza exists, it's just that it exist between here and the farthest away point in the universe. But a clever customer would give you no money and use your argument against you.
I find the "fine tuned for life" argument a bit of empty. Doesn't life develops and adapts to the conditions it exists in? Wouldn't it also adapt and develop in other conditions?
Was making me some lunch when watching this video. And realized another unsolved mystery: Why is the a cheese curl in my oat meal? Did Highs put it there? Cheese curls are definitely associated with the Higgs boson since it is evident you gain mass when you consume them. Or perhaps did it just appear out of nothing and the anti-cheese curl has drifted away. Now, last weekend I suffered some food poison after having eaten a bunch of cheese curls. Perhaps the anti-cheese curl had ended up among those? That would explain me spending most of my time last Saturday night at the toilet doing some fission.
I have a question for you, John. Electromagnetism, as a force, is 10^18 times stronger than gravity. Why is gravity assumed to be the primary active force in the universe, and EM is pretty much ignored? It is like attributing the force of a hurricane to a random sneeze.
At some point, yes. It's a very deep rabbit hole though, so I need to do a ton more careful research to properly and carefully present it so people don't get all crazy with it. For me, it has to be grounded. But it is intriguing. I can say that If you want a primer though, here's some reading: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mind

@@JohnMichaelGodier 😊 _(Blushes.)_ Oh, I never expected to receive such an accolade from you, John, thank you, it really warmed my heart.
People are more curious animals than even cats. The curiosity to explain. Every human culture has creation myths about the Earth and the heavens. When I see on YT or Twitter that people are curious and suddenly halt as if at a barrier, or, more often, get an illusion of knowledge, I feel an ethical obligation to give a push to the former or strongly disillusion the latter. I know I'm shifting sand against the tide, but maybe, just maybe, if I make one single fellow human being who's genuinely curious about science to make that step, and then give a similar impetus to others, I'll start a self-sustaining chain. If I would convince two, I'll make it exponentially-growing. I sound like an idealist. But, after studying W.K.Clifford's ethics and learning about his epistemic responsibility, what should I do next-shelve it to the dusty ceiling of my mind, and use it to sound smarter than I am at a party? No point, not my thing, albeit I see it quite often. Every theory of ethics-and ethics is part of the philosophy of knowledge!-comes with moral, the practical adherence to it. If I buy his theory, I can't help but act according to it. So... am I an _informed idealist?_ 🤓
I'm terrified by the thought of one or, possibly, two step that have been missed by every complex society before our current one, the reason why scientific and technological humanity may be even more alone in the Universe. There were so many highly developed civilizations in the past, with their highest art, philosophy, astronomy: Babylonians, Greeks, Chinese, Islamic Golden Age, which preserved Greeks for the Westerners when they forgot the language... “The fall of civilizations” podcast has a few dozen episodes already and counting (and I has been an ardent student of everything Roman for good 20 years, from the semi-mythical founding of Rome to its sad end). Not a single one of these civilizations developed science as an epistemic mode. Ionian Greeks come close once, tho; this gives me some hope. Our “Western,” in a wide sense, civilization is also a sample of one. We perceive both science and technology, which is in fact only science's, ehm... droppings, as a given. (Most people even in tech have a misconception that the goal of science is to produce technology.)
What if that's another step that is not taken? You said that humans have been technological since they dug out and split suitable stones and attached them to sticks; I don't share that view. (BTW, I didn't comprehend the intricacy of toolmaking achieved by the biologically modern human societies of the Ice Age before I came across Brian Fagan's _Cro-magnon._ There had also been a sharp cultural explosion in H. Sapiens some ~50kya, which is attributed to the development of language, although that's speculative.) Mine sets a higher bar: we've become technological with the industrial revolution. When our civilization will have gone down-and so far, all, without exception, have-will those who come after us be scientific and technological? I'm seeing another filter on the way to what we call “alien civilizations,” in a different sense of the word. What if Attic pinnacle of art and philosophy is closer to the norm, and Western science, which arose only once in history, is a freaky accident? And, there's another step up taken for granted: technological explosion as a byproduct of science. But is technology inevitably caused by science? Seems likely, but.. Science's only real goal is science itself. Science seems to need technology: after a few decades of constructing particle accelerators, we've likely hit the wall-Higgs' confirmed, SuSy, in any sensible form, dead, Planck scale unachievable. A bleep in history, and we _happened_ to have the tech. We now want space-based instruments to observe processes in the Universe so energetic that they're unthinkable to produce in a lab. But this is still anthropocentric; we shoot them up into orbit because of our opaque atmosphere. But phosphorus-based, oxygen redox is not the only biochemistry even on Earth. Someone with sulfur-based energy storage and transport, evolved on a planet with barely any atmosphere and extracting energy from thermal gradients on their planet may not need to put their instruments into orbit. And, being an autothroph, he has no fear of hunger, the biggest ever driver for human development. Longing for power and wealth is another, but that is not necessary for intelligence either: our natural ancestry, strictly hierarchically organized primate troops, aggressively held together by their alphas is possibly not the only path to higher intelligence. (And we're kinda lucky: had we descended from a more baboon-minded ancestor, we would have probably still used intelligence for wars and raids on neighbors alone, possibly with stone axes to this day-ain't anyone got time for that invention.) If the planet is in 1:1 resonance with the star, like most should be, there's only a narrow terminator that is livable; no desire to travel places within own world: the sights are all the same, no point; and this may translate into the lack of even an idea of to travel to other worlds. Science may be so wonderful in itself that it may keep one busy, satisfying his curiosity for lifetime. A planet of sedentary scientists, descended from non-social, non-competitive loner autothrops, connected with a naturally co-evolved underground “internet” of symbiotic fungi: how's that? Why would they need technology at the scale we use it? Not a very strong argument, just a case to consider whether tech and science are as inseparable as we accept without much though. They may be separate filters.
The linear upward development of humanity, so-called “progress,” is a Western myth-we have our myths too, like any culture/civilization before us had; in reality, it has been a long chain of ups and downs, knowledge lost and rediscovered, lost again and rediscovered again. What our civilization has achieved, for the first time in history ever, is both unprecedented and unfathomable. Poincare was probably the last person in our civilization who knew it all, and only in mathematics and physics, while knowing all that which the civilization knew was the norm for an educated Attic philosopher or an Islamic Golden Age polymath. But we've been technological _sensu primo_ for less than 250 years. Without evidence, I can't add “and forever from now on.” What terrifies me when I overdose on coffee to jitters, is whether intelligence's becoming scientific and then technological is only a freaky temporary accident even on this planet.
We're not “just another primate,” as Sapolsky brilliantly shows, but we are primates indeed, with all the innate conflicting impulses to submit to alpha's authority and to overthrow alpha's authority. Unlike the baboons, we are wired with circuits that _potentially_ control these impulses and _can learn_ to use them. I would worry less if more people understood science and fewer believed in QAnon (quite possibly, it's the TV and not nuclear weapons that has been the most dangerous use of technology: nukes are in trained hands, but everybody has been allowed to plop their tired body into a comfy chair and relax before the screen without a mandatory 3-month-long mental hygiene training). I'm not a sage: where we are now has no reference to compare with in the past, not even close. But it's dangerous to unlearn who we really are, for we are really dangerous to what we think of ourselves. Going back the full circle, I'm convinced that more education never hurts a society. But what can I do...
Oh. Brevity is not among my merits...
I adore you and your channels! By far my favorite channel on UA-cam. Thanks for making my day yet again. Blessings and abundance to you, John💯🌏🦾🙏🍀
I always watch your videos 3 times haha once to fall asleep, another time to try an comprehend, and the third time to fully grasp the subject matter 😂
I think that's most of us 😅
But that's ok it gives him more views 😊
Love your work!❤
Just what I needed after getting this new job and working all week, thanks Mr JMG much love man
JMG top 10s are undefeated.
Thanks!
Just see this pop up my FAVOURITE playlist in the whole wide universe I suppose multiverse even and my favourite science and physics subject . Its like you listen to my thoughts JMG . Just off to beddy byes too so this is first up tonight . Thanks so very much.
Great as always JMG! Thank you!
I’ve always learned a whole lot more on this channel, than I ever did in school.
Well Mr. Godier, it's not even Halloween yet but you've managed to give me goosebumps this beautiful Spring morning. Cheers!
I love listening to a new a exciting episode from JMG!!! Thank you!!!
Truly amazing video, John! Thanks a bunch!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
+John Michael godier; I just wanted to thank you, for making some of the more esoteric parts of science much easier (and clearer) to understand.
2:15 Fun thing about magnetic fields -- these are vector fields, so, effectively, you are always only ever in _one._ The thing the magnetic field cares about, in a sense, is the relative orientation of two objects in terms of their charge distributions -- it tries to make these things point the same way. The magnetic field at any given location can only point in a single direction; this is like saying there is only one answer to where the nearest concentration of charge is -- the magnetic field for any given distribution of charges is a well-defined, _unique_ solution. This is why magnetic fields form domains of smooth, continuously varying field direction.
Because these fields can't intersect or overlap, they are able to push and pull on one another at a distance, at the speed of light, and the resulting field lines conform to the potential energy gradient between charge concentrations.
What this means: for all of its (spooky) anisotropy, if you will forgive a slight anthropomorphization, this one part of the universe cares _very much_ which direction you're looking in.
I love that I got here so early, but I have to save this video for when I do the dishes later tonight ❤️
Good vid. Too many people butcher the quantum stuff and interpret it falsely or fantastically. Though, I'm not surprised. All your stuff is well-educated/researched.
I finally observed the release of a new video by JMG from the first minute of uploading!
11. The Quantum Fart - If you smelt it, you dealt it. To this day, a mystery.
I can't thank you enough for unraveling the secrets of the universe through your videos. Your dedication to spreading knowledge is truly admirable.
When I see a new download from John it's good day.
Excellent video. Very interesting, informative and worthwhile video.
Thank you for all that you do sir John Michael Godier
Problem: *exists*
Scientists: Lets slap a field on it
Scientists explaining a pizza: It's an excitation in the pizza-field.
Seems to work
Would it be a super-position pizza, all toppings all at once, until you open the box?
What about a field that predicts the likelihood of over-modeling something with a field? 🥸
It's just not the same without the long drawn out..." In which we livvvvvvvve."
Awesome channel John! 🤓👍💭
Thank you for the work you do
Oh, yes!!!!! My favorite subject!!! Thank you, John!
One of my favorite topics rewatched it. And glad I did
What got me back here was the livvee I herd on today's video.
Your speaking voice rates right up with some of the all time greats. Not naming names.
I run a bowling alley called Bowlski's in El Jebel in Aspen valley and I'm just stoked you threw in a bowling reference! Thanks you rock!
My question is, could the Higgs field be the answer to the Inflaton issue as well? Basically, in the earlier universe it bogged everything down less? Perhaps due to some half-life of the Higgs Boson, or some sort? Possibly even just acting that way due to the high energy state of the early universe?
The quantum mind has every element needed to start a religion. It basically sounds like describing a god.
Maybe that's all religion really is, an ancient understanding of the quantum consciousness put into words, but meanings of the words change and/or are forgotten.
That is a very interesting take, thank you for the brain food
Yeah except its nonsense. Observing something with instruments without consciousness also works in fixing the state or position of something so the whole idea about consciousness presented here is nonsense.
Best content on the galactic interwebs
Well done. Good summary
When you are literally eating pizza right now. It's almost as if JMG has been observing me 😂😂👀👀
That pizza explanation was a PHENOMENAL analogy for superposition - you have a gift for taking bizarre and complex concepts and bringing them to those of us non-scientists!
And now I'm craving pizza...
Dark atoms and dark chemistry… now there's something I want to see explored in sci-fi!
You should do a vid on how we could possibly communicate with the universe simulator
If they do find a new particle, I hope they name it the Cruton .
Crunchy!
It's almost as if someone *designed* the joint for us. :)
There is an idea in some Buddhist schools of thought that science should not be studied as it leads to endless distractions. To this I have said that we are supposed to help others end their own suffering and science can be a tool whereby future generations can lessen their sufferings. I wonder though if there will be some point at which studying the quantum world will become an endless distraction or will concrete benefits be brought out which help people end suffering.
Love these videos 🤯
ive been an astronomy nerd since i was like 6 years old and stuff like this just never gets old for me. im not a nerd by any other means, i fuckin hated school and im not knowledgeable in really any subjects whatsoever, but space and quantum physics are different. theyre too far interesting to be ignored
One thing that confuses me about inflation (lots of other things do to, but let's stick with this one)
We know the age of the universe by back calculating the current expansion of the universe; and re-winding it as it were. But that calculation surely assumes the rate of expansion was constant. If we have a period of massive inflation, unless we know exactly how fast that was and its duration, I don't see how we can extrapolate the age of the universe from what we see now.
I appreciate far cleverer people than me are totally on board with inflation, and that it's a good expansion for the homogenous nature of the universe, so there must be an answer; but could anyone be kind enough to explain it to me as one might a moderately intelligent golden retriever?
The hyperinflationary period is a hypothetical period after the big bang, but before what physicists can observe.
You are right that inflation being consistent is a assumption. Physics uses that assumption because assuming counter to it would not be helpful. If we assume inflation has not been consistent, we can't draw any conclusions at all. It works much the same way as the assumption we are conscious or have free will. It's just not helpful to assume otherwise.
The inflationary epoch lasted from 10**-36s to 10**-33 or 32 s, so it’s not a big change to 13.8By
Where's your ball? Heres your ball. Get your ball. Good boy.
I'd really like to learn more about the competition to string theory
It’s string theory. That’s the problem with it. There were a bunch of different version, then they realized they were all the same, so that string theory can predict anything, when it was founded it was believed it would predict everythin (eg the 40 or so parameters in the standard model)
Chaos is like the # of unique ways you can crease a sheet of paper by folding it, order is like the # of ways you can symmetrically fold the sheet into a bird ( symmetrical because minimal diffusion occurs in 1 dimensional, opposite directions like strand, with segments that oscillate like beads, with enough pressure one can interlock a pattern that take times to untangled in a value that takes into account the inverse square model, mainly proof of reaching temporary Singularity of a different kind before the emergence of strand in question
Never been this early, love your channel man, greetings from Ireland
Had a really good time listening to this!
I love these looks at deeply weird quantum effects!
"you can only take it as far as the evidence". Great audible quote.
awesome, new JMG video
I hate when I order a pizza, and right when I open the box, quantum fluctuations happen and it turns into a tentacle monster, and then the pizza delivery man starts stripping, and then a police officer arrives and tells me I'm under arrest.
Don't worry. That's just the content with which your Boltzmann brain came into existence. There is no pizza, tentacle monster, policeman or any nude delivery guys. And there is no me commenting on this either. Just your brain.
Consciousness is a huge brain teaser/paradox to me and so it made me really excited to hear you talk about the potential crossover with the quantum realm. I would love to hear more about similar questions or theories that have been raised about consciousness by people smarter than I 😁
Only philosophy would say consciousness is a paradox, not science.
The "quality or state of being aware especially of something within oneself", is not some mythical thing, it's just a process of the inputs we receive from our senses, and the memory of it. While quantum effects may play a role, it is not required to understand the vast majority of neuroscience.
You do realize, that most animals meet that criteria, by definition, right? It's not so special.
@@kennethc2466 I don't think really you understood the consciousness/quantum realm argument
IMO CONSCIOUSNESS HAS ITS OWN PARTICLE/WAVE💯😮💨IN THE SAME WAY THERE IS A "GRAVITON" PARTICLE/WAVE THAT CONTROLS GRAVITY I BELIEVE THERE IS A "SPIRITON" / "CONSCIOUSNESS-TON" THAT MAKES UP SENTIENCE💯EVENTUALLY WE WILL BE ABLE 2 MEASURE IT && EVEN CONTROL IT‼️😮💨
@@francobuttarelli760 i think you and the OP are not fully understanding neuroscience - you likely have just enough to knowledge to be very wrong.
Well I liked the background music .
"Pizzas are not subject to many quantum effects" - That's quite a relief!
This reminded me of LEXX
Gah! I needed the liiiiiiiiiiiive! 😊
1. The dangerous Higgs boson
2. The incomprehensible inflaton
3. Weakly interacting particles
4. The undetectable graviton
5. Even weaker than gravity
6. The sterile neutrino
7. Dark photons
8. Axions
9. The leptoquark
10. The quantum mind
Thank you the quick list my friend!
Awesome. Love the videos. Thanks alot
What if the point in space where the big bang first came to be is too far for us to see, but say every 100billion years it blows again and basically paints over the old universe with a new one
2:14 Great. I hadn't noticed until you pointed it out...
The last one seems the most intriguing because it's the source of all our experience. The philosopher Bernardo Kastrup even calls the universe as Mind at Large
Observing something with instruments without consciousness also works in fixing the state or position of something so the whole idea about consciousness presented here is nonsense
@@enterthevoidIi So its just measuring thats at play right? I mean technically even if its observed with instruments only some conscious being has to look at those results at some point, so technically there is still a consciousness involved at some point but yes its not necessarily related whatsoever
I don't really go all in on reductive physicalism, but this was interesting content. P.S. You remind me of the "Good Idea, Bad Idea" narrator from the Animaniacs.
True story, I got lost following a "bridge out" detour that was poorly marked. I finally pulled over and tried to ask the GPS where I was and to route me home. I was literally nowhere, like cornfields and the closest town was like, a road and closed up buildings. My exact exasperated question to the GPS is "Ok, where am I?". The GPS said, and not kidding here, "You are home. Why?". I was at least 50-60 miles from my home, if not more. I thought "Hmmm, maybe I am dreaming and I AM at home". Then I thought "Maybe my home IS this cornfield." LOL. So I asked again, this time it told me I was in a totally different state from mine. Clearly it was just not receiving a signal. Or was it?
Was it Apple Maps?
It wasn't receiving a signal. Check that location access is turned on for that app.
Are you even really you?
You should ask it.
{What if we are misunderstanding what we're observing? And, What we aren't observing?} Lol (The use of gravitational magnetospheres as a analogy is really nice) *I wonder how the electromagnetic force behaves in space, on massive scales, and really small scales?" Maybe we don't understand how massive things the scale of Galaxies behave?
*I really wonder if Electromagnetism plays more of a crucial role in many different aspects of the Universe then we currently understand? Gravity, such a important aspect of nature yet seems like we don't understand "all the details about it yet" (In the form of a analogy) it really does seem like aspects of Gravity share similarities with the electromagnetic force. Like Static charge's act upon small dust particles & allow them to acquire mass to begin gaining density. We can't have light/radiation, electricity without the electromagnetic force. The strong nuclear force seems to share similar charge behavior as well, so does chemistry. It uses +/- charges to bond compound's. I wonder if these aspects of Nature have more of a connection than we currently understand? Maybe things on different levels, strengths, size's, scales, could alter the behavior of a force we already know about. Maybe just certain things are needed, Such as temperature, density, pressure, velocity/rotation, energy/frequency/vibration, viscosity, etc. Think of how star's are created after enough mass is acquired? Radiation, light, magnetospheres, rotational velocities. They all are so crucial to Nature and all require aspects of the electromagnetic force for it to even exist.. look at a graph that shows the levels where different materials transition into different states of matter: maybe their are threshold points of (density, rotation, heat, atmospheric pressure, etc.) It's just a gut feeling I have after watching tons of science videos covering the behavior of the Universe around us. (the only way we can obtain growth and learn the things we are right about and the things need slight adjustment on? Is to be willing to allow ourselves to be open and thinking from all perspectives even on things we think we already know about.
I’m thinking that, what we are learning is mostly how much we don’t know and how clueless we are. We flail for theories that explain mysteries but I suspect we are viewing the universe through a keyhole and may never know, at least in this life. By the way, I’ve started Supermind. Captivating so far!
Superb as always..livvvvveeeee
Love this topic and how trippy it is.
"In which we liive - just kidding." Yeah... I KNOW what you're doing mister! You woke me up with this deviation from the liiiive routine lol. I guess no one knows your trolling bec. everyone is deeply sleeping until they reach the end xD.
Well actually there are certain, equally valid, interpretations of QM that state the superposition/wavefunction is not real and everything is fully deterministic, but non local effects are real, such as with pilot wave or many worlds.
"11. I never knew that the universe is constantly expanding. It's mind-blowing!

~I dare say, I enjoyed THIS edition of "JMG Counts to 10", quite immensely. Perhaps more than any prior U.L.s. The reason for this largely has to do with the intensity, of thought provocation it engendered in Me, by the subject matter. IMO. Alas, though I'm stretching my comment to my preferred limits, I cannot expound much further here without excessive texting. I'll settle with a fundamental notion, usually understated due to A.E.Poe's "Purloined Letter Effect". - A sort of inverse of the "Forest Hidden because of the Trees." A.K.A. The logistics of "Things Hidden (Because they Are) IN Plain Sight."

Indeed There seems to be an "Event Horizon", at the outer limits of two opposite observable spatial borders -At both the Planck extremities. At Macro and Micro cosmic realms. Unlike gravitational ones we don't "fall" into these, just the opposite. Yet still, horizons of events they seem to be. Beyond the absolute ceiling of the colossal. And the Quantum "spatial/Temporal Floor" of the most minuscule. ~That The Universe and everything in it is in between...and HAS a beginning, an existential period... and an end...is ONE anthropocentric "Syntax" we use. There are Others. A description of a totally different, yet equally valid Order of reality...

What IS perceptible, is as, or perhaps a bit less valuable of a teacher, than that which is NOT. Stillness gives MEANING to Movement. The space between notes are as much a constituent of Music.
One of the rudimentary conclusions I am compelled to draw is that The The Eye does Not See Itself - EXCEPT Via Reflection...
This goes without any requisite inference to the metaphysical, but at least begs the primary question: Besides a "Description & Interpretation subjectively"...What is it that we are Observing, with the EYE of our personal consciousness? A reflection? (BTW Conscious awareness has a gravitational event horizon or limit. De-animation. Beyond which is the SAME place a flame goes when extinguished.)
The answers might be astonishingly simple, in "plain sight"... but ...the ramifications may be almost impossible to apprehend...and yet.. I feel We NEED to understand, to break the mirror of self reflection. In order to advance / evolve further or to even survive at all ... Reach The next level...

~ In any case, An Excellent Job Mr. Godier. Really Terrific.💥💥💥💥
I'd love it if someone opens a food service called "Quantum Pizza" because of this episode
You could hand out empty boxes or serve empty plates and tell the customers that their pizza exists, it's just that it exist between here and the farthest away point in the universe. But a clever customer would give you no money and use your argument against you.
I find the "fine tuned for life" argument a bit of empty. Doesn't life develops and adapts to the conditions it exists in? Wouldn't it also adapt and develop in other conditions?
...and if it didnt it wouldnt be there to ponder the question
The perfect accompaniment to Advance Wars: Reboot Camp. : ) 💥
Was making me some lunch when watching this video. And realized another unsolved mystery: Why is the a cheese curl in my oat meal? Did Highs put it there? Cheese curls are definitely associated with the Higgs boson since it is evident you gain mass when you consume them.
Or perhaps did it just appear out of nothing and the anti-cheese curl has drifted away. Now, last weekend I suffered some food poison after having eaten a bunch of cheese curls. Perhaps the anti-cheese curl had ended up among those? That would explain me spending most of my time last Saturday night at the toilet doing some fission.
Didn't know I needed a new religion. Thanks Quantum Mysticism
I have a question for you, John.
Electromagnetism, as a force, is 10^18 times stronger than gravity.
Why is gravity assumed to be the primary active force in the universe, and EM is pretty much ignored? It is like attributing the force of a hurricane to a random sneeze.
"It's holding you to your chair."
Bold of you to assume I'm not in bed!
I can't find any other videos talking about the "quantum mind"
Can you make a full video on this subject?
At some point, yes. It's a very deep rabbit hole though, so I need to do a ton more careful research to properly and carefully present it so people don't get all crazy with it. For me, it has to be grounded. But it is intriguing. I can say that If you want a primer though, here's some reading:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mind
