You are such an amazing talker and writer, the way you explain things either by speech or by written you have a unique way to teach complicated concepts in an engaging manner. I started reading book in the english language because of you; your books were very interesting to read so reading was became more enjoyable for me thanks to you. I'm about to finish your last book: ''livewired''; an incredible as all the others.
great episode. ironically enough, maybe 2 months ago, was wondering exactly this, from a science pov. your previous, "[x] echo illusion", is such a great way to accurately describe that phenomenon. it has stuck with me (since ep.72). that along with theory of mind/world model really opens up the Nature of humanity in a more analytical/scientific endeavor. (and for me, analytically/scientifically helps shut down the common idea of "machines (currently) becoming humans"). thanks for sharing…
The 2 best central nervous system releases are laughing and crying, and our go-to is usually laughter. Because it feels good a nice positive release. My go-to if I'm feeling alexithymic is jump scare humor, which is such a feel-good euphoric feeling a nice boost. I also have a dark side of humor, shock humor is a fun one and will include some too soon off humor. Sometimes my autism/adhd need that outside the box humor!!🤔🤭 Thanks for the fun thoughts on this. The AI may have intended to be putting a spin on the fact the crab is a shell and shell out for. The other perspective could be the crab always shells out cash for peanut butter. It's just mostly a dud factor all around with presentation.👻🤪🌶🤘😎♾️
Very interesting lecture! Thank you for presenting this. How much does current culture influence what is funny? I have noticed that what was funny when I was a kid (50s-early 60s), kids don't find funny, and what my adult kids find funny today (30s-40s) I don't get. The concepts of humor possess a consistency in pattern construction with a cultural influence?!
AI can be witty. I asked Meta a question about Elon Musk; it gave an answer. I then asked if 'grok' would give a similar answer. Meta replied saying the information would be much the same, but there would probably include some sort of Martian Mysterism. I thought that was pretty funny. 😅
32:43 you laughed in the same way a soldier laughs after something terrible happens in a war. Next time don't be ashamed, explain exactly what you mentioned, including reducing stress hormone levels. 36:23 Scary situations also strengthen group cohesion, especially if someone laughs wholeheartedly 😂
@@AttackChefDennis I get the joke, but it could be improved. Particles don't 'walk' thus unlikely to 'walk' into a Black Hole; drunks however do 'fall' as well as 'walk'. also the term "fall into a Black Hole" is already in us, hence using the term in a twisted way.
Too bad you don’t appreciate AI humor. The idea that the lobster wanted to shell out something because of his amorphic abilities of being allergic to peanuts could be rather funny.
I also didn't find it amusing... Overall it just created a story failing in constructing a joke. Did you honestly laugh? The way I see it is it failed at connecting variables in a meaningful amusing way: 3 actors enter a store type of joke, butter in the _seafood_ section and "shelling out" (since protagonists are seafood), the last lobster goes to the right section (pantry) but since it wants something else it is confronted for the "final pun", peanut butter allergy is a common issue but it was associated the other way around (never heard of butter allergy, intolerance perhaps?), allergy symptoms were attempted to be both connected to seafood, but lobsters don't have shells (the model would have to get that)... Probably you may find more incoherences if you keep looking. Sure, if you throw a bunch of stuff together something might be funny, I've seen kids also attempting this when trying to create a new joke. It's a similar logic of that book that solves 50% of your problems: just one more will solve them all 😂
@@andanssas no I didn’t feel the joke was funny but that’s a personal preference. Lobster do have shell , which is why his early joke about them being “shell fish” sounding like selfish was suppose to make it funny.
@@richardjaffe9972 lobsters have an exoskeleton, the carapace is part of it... So to get the "joke" you need to be someone who thinks that the exoskeleton is a shell... Oh my xD
@@andanssas not saying most people would think the joke is funny but I do believe most people think that lobsters have shells. Some even Know there is difference in hard and soft shell lobster. 🦞
@@richardjaffe9972 thank you for explaining, just checked the definition of _crustaceous_ and besides considering animals with crust, it includes those with shell... 🤯 So not being a native English speaker would also be an issue to get the joke
Could this be the evolutionary benefit of humor: To communicate to others that one is not a threat when surprised?

I don't think you understand what ironic actually means. Putting that aside though I really like this guy's videos.
Thank you so much for your point of view about it rair😅
This was very interesting as I always try to inject humor into the shows that I write.
Thank You AGAIN for this unique series. An excellent episode. Ευχαριστώ πολύ.

Excellent exposition, thanks
There is an aspect that is interesting, to ridicule someone . A way to punish socially. A way to celebrate a goal achieved too.

Comedy can challenge our way of thinking
we laugh because the alpha is funny to laugh at and it gives us a chance with the ladies
Watch a 70s show, "All in the Family"

The Eagle Man speaks much wisdom. Too bad graphics so ugly.
What about this joke, only two steps, but uses a familiar structure of the joke.
A proton and a neutrino walk into a blavk hole........
It would be funnier if you said: "A proton and a neutrino fall into a black hole."
@@Mirrorgirl492 the idea is to copy the old rabbi and a priest walk into a bar joke from back in the old days
