Watch long and short-form videos on nearly every science-related topic including physics, biology, the brain, robotics, medicine, space, engineering, and the Earth. We gather great minds in science and the arts to produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to engage with scientific discoveries. Through discussions, debates, original films, lectures, and intimate salons, the World Science Festival takes science out of the laboratory and out into world.
The World Science Festival is a production of the World Science Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit headquartered in New York City. Our mission is to cultivate a general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.
In regard to the distortion of the spinning merry go round- the radius immediately from the rider to the center would be unchanged, but all of the other radii on the circle would be contracted, according the sine of the angle between the radius and the rider's radius. So the shape the rider sees would be a rotating ellipse, according to Lorentz. So it is true that the geometric relation of the radius and the circumference would appear not to hold in the rotating reference frame. But that does not pose any problem, if the rotating reference frame reports an ellipse, rather than a circle. I am trying to figure out what observation would require you to resort to curved space time, to account for it. There would be angles that the rider could see around the elliptical shape, that a stationary rider would not be able to see around the circular shape. Similar to gravitational "lensing". But it does not seem that that requires curved space time, either. Because those same angles would be visible to the stationary rider, at different times. Something to think about.
I don't understand why everyone is so surprised that the universe is random. Life... For instance... Nothing is 100% predictable in the end it's all governed by quantum mechanics and it scales up to macroscopic sized things through DNA. Search for the preons. But I doubt it stops there, it's all fluid.
science is lying to everyone or has been omitting it for years... . This experiment has already been proven since 2001 with the book Holomovimento: Espelho d'Alma, and the book The Unified Theory. art science religion by Melinda Garcia
I dont see how it follows if you treat people like computers you can destroy society... Of course this is possible. Its also possible to destroy or put another way, become evil while still treating people like people. Conversely since ive abandoned free will I feel more sympahy for humans as creatures or machines or whatever you want to call them, its all the same.
If everything is quantum waves in Einstein's time-space understanding the quantum entanglement of particles is closer to the advancement of overall physics. May the pioneers keep pushing forward. I especially like the equal and opposite spin after the measurement. I am exploring spin propulsion
If there was a big bang and particles get entangled when they are created. Then all particles in the universe got entangled when they were created from the big bang. If they all communicate faster then light they might communicate across time as well. The question is why can't I use them to send myself winning lottery numbers?
Conjecture module and theorem prover module are interesting. I don't see a problem though. We'll just need a third module: the translator module! In general, whenever someone conceives of a problem with AI, surely just think of this problem itself as a computer science problem, then there will also be an AI solution?
Guy #2: same as the first, but only 2 eyes. I see the pattern here and do no #3 before watching: I am not sure AI is a field they should work in. The first one even said "Our AI can even censor hatespeech". Yeah, let's enjoy the vibe of 1984 (the book). Censor everything. Let their AI do everything for us. These guys will make a murder robot if allowed to get resources.
Gravity is memory!! 🐘 Gravity reflects our thoughts!!💭 A black hole is a thought!!💭 We’re thoughts of the universe!! Moons are like black holes!! 🕳️ We’re becoming powerful stars!!⭐️ I know I’m dreaming!! 🛌 If you’re dreaming too, then you’re the conductor of your dream. You have to imagine the best you can, what your dream is all about. ✍️ I can help you!! 👼 All the galaxies are meant to gravitate to each other, as we would to each other!! Magnetism!! 🧲 Like a parachute of stars!!🪂 Andromeda galaxy would represent the Milky Way’s twin flame!!🔥 🔥 Galaxy collisions!! Twin flame connections!! Quantum entanglement!! 👻 We’re more like holograms here and ghosts!! Pretending to be human!! We’re playing a very silly game!!🥸 We come here as a moon or seed!! We evolve into the universe itself and explode like a star!!💫 I’ve already exploded at least once. I’m trying to help others now!! 😇
Quantum mechanics imply multiple extra dimensions within the one universe. Assuming it indicates entire multiple universes is a huge stretch and leap. I enjoy Brian Greene, by Sean Carroll is pretty good.
Where is the ruliad a better perspective than topos theory? Is there a way of composing rules to tie them to things like fundamental constants inherent to the theory? I feel like the kind of relativity the ruliad speaks to is inherent to humans. Feels like a teaching tool almost, to open researchers mind.
You must be the alpha on your own brain. You command him with your power that was given by God as long as you understand love and Gods love. With that access you can command your brain at anything you want to have as a human as long as it is possible for a human body. Anything is possible, because of brain i could probably create stars and planets. Amazing right?🥰
When I think about densities and then I address the issue of time space itself I find it hard to believe that Time exists without the fact that vibrations FALLOW a path that time cant slow down or speed up the pathways itself is entangled with the reflection of the vibration that makes it continuously floating in the spacing process circles within circles of billions of trillions of particular vibrations Crystals record the tracks of time space itself vibrations are exactly what we are experiencing
Wobble your pencil it looks like your pencil starts to become more fluid like does that make the solids bendable. NO the light is a plasma of course you put ripples into it. Lets think about the reality how much more force does it take to create a ripple in metals vs liquids hell even a plasma?????
Much appreciation, this is a lifestyle vlog request for Dr Greene if possible, habits, food family etc. If you have one please refference it. Thank you in advance. People might find some inspiration in ur well-being. Cheers.
Thank you for the wonderful discussion, amazing scientists simplifying the complicated concept of AI & & to have an idea as to which direction world is moving with this incredible technology. Very humbling experience. Hope & pray these scientists will help to navigate nations in right & productive direction so human race can wake up to righteous way of life with much compassion
I wonder why this RU-vid recommendation is nested amongst links to science fiction episode analyses. The difference is that I actually do like Doctor Who.
General relativity and quantum mechanics will never be combined until we realize that they take place at different moments in time. Because causality has a speed limit(c) every point in space where you observe it from will be 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
3 observations: 1. The example of the backpack (how you perceive an uphill road in front of you as steeper if you have a heavy backpack on your back) is interesting and congruent with Bergson's idea that perception is virtual action, action-oriented in the sense that it prepares us for action. 2. I find Hoffmann's and Seth's narratives a bit pernicious. The way they push the idea that we have no access to what reality "really is" (Hoffmann) or that perception is "controlled hallucination" (Seth) is an exaggeration, but also a bit of a dangerous one. One thing is denying naive realism, another thing is undermining our "contact with reality" completely. It is, after all, a performative contradiction, because science is done by human beings with those same perceptual limitations, so they are essentially cutting the tree their own scientific conclusions sit on. We have direct contact with reality because we participate in reality. The fact that perception is "transjective" (neither fully objective in the sense of independent of the subject nor fully subjective in the sense of mere creation of the subject) doesn't undermine that. 3. As Varvaeke would say, "real" is a comparative notion, like "tall". You say that something is real as compared to something else that is not, or that something is "more real" than something else, and that is contextual. The chair I'm sitting on is more real than its reflection in the mirror, if by real I mean that I can sit on the former but not on the latter. My brother is more real than Sherlock Holmes if by real I mean my brother is a human being in flesh and bones that I could play tennis with (while Sherlock Holmes lacks such physicality). The park outside my house is more real than a park I may have dreamt of last night, if by real I mean, again, having physicality, being better defined, having more stable presence, etc...
This was a very good video description by Dr Green which explains what happens with time dilation, but I still can't understand why. I do understand that the object that is accelerating makes time slow down for them, but what if 2 objects traveling at a cruising speed of 99.9% the speed of light, each flew by each other, let's say somewhere between the Earth and the moon. One of them traveled 5 light years to a star in one direction and the other traveled the same distance to the nearest star in the opposite direction. How much would the observer on Earth have aged to the astronaut's point of view and how much would the astronauts have aged in comparison to each other? also, each ship would have a very bright rounded beacon light which the earth observer would be able to see as they crossed each other.
I think there's different kinds of dark energy. In the early universe the nuclear force dominated and produced "nucleated dark energy" because the universe was so tiny that atomic forces were prominent. And now that quantum gravity effects have become prominent as the universe expands. "Quantum dark energy" is the prominent form of dark energy. Nucleated dark energy still seems to exist unchanging though as it's many orders of magnitude stronger than the cosmological constant.
Just started the video, but I think the answer must be “yes?” If you entangle two clocks, then accelerate one, time dilation will occur and they will then have different times, yet still be entangled… just a guess
Is inflation from the virtual particles? What ifbthose virtual particles that pop up in empty space are glued to spactime somehow but also repel eachother. So there would be a constant never ending expansion from virtual particles stretching the space between them as they repel each other.
