A simple guide to chaos theory - BBC World Service 

tiny changes can have a great effect! This applies to ur habits as well.

People watching this like: - in bed - not in a full screen - reading comments

The best explanation for Chaos theory that I never see it before and in 5 min , beautifully made.

I'm writing this random comment on the hope that the butterfly effect will bring peace to everyone!

"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself." ~Leo Tolstoy

The video is total chaos.

Very nice video. A small addtion to 3:31 when you say "long-term prediction is impossible". Yes, chaotic dynamics make predicting the state of a system at a certain point in the far future close to impossible, but it is actually very possible to predict the average state of the system over a long period of time. For example the Lorenz system is chaotic and it's impossible to know excatly where the system will be after a long time, but since the trajectories follow the butterfly-shaped curves (technically called "Lorenz attractor"), we can predict the average state of the system over a long enough duration. This subtle distinction is VERY important because it addresses one of the main "concerns" of climate change deniers who say how can we predict the rise in temperature 2 decades in the future if we cannot prdict the weather 2 weeks in advance? The answer is, as above, it is impossible to know where the system will exactly be at an exact point in time, but it is actually relatively easy to know the average of the system long into the future and over long periods of time.

If not Einstein, it simply would have been someone else. History was ready for these new theories and many were on the cusps of the same results. The individuals didn't matter. Little would be different now, if anything. Each person's influence fades out with time like waves on a pond. As with most of these, "simple" is another word for "incomplete" and "inaccurate".

I think this video contains quite a few misunderstandings and confusions. 1:31 Chaos theory does NOT question the deterministic vision of classical physics. Chaos theory studies the deterministic behaviours of physics or mathematics that are very sensitive to the initial conditions. What really questioned the classical physics was quantum theory, which is completely probabilistic. 3:15 She brought up a statement that sounds like the quantum mechanical limitation of measurement but it is not the main reason why some phenomena are difficult to predict. Of course we cannot know the state of every atom at infinite accuracy, but it is mainly the mathematical structure of the equation of motion that makes some motions difficult to predict in a long term. People with more knowledge in chaos theory might be able to point out more, so if you find anything weird in this video, please write it in the reply.

One way or another, smartphones would have existed.

Day and night were born of chaos, Mother chaos had all secrets, some she has revealed us and some are still unknown to her borns.

Keep producing this kind of content.

the majority of weather models were predicting Hurricane Beryl to be a Cat 3 then cross the Yucatan peninsula and make landfall in Mexico. Instead it became the first ever Cat4 in late June and the earliest ever Cat5 in July. It did cross the Yucatan peninsula but then strengthened and veered further north into southern Texas. Both weather and climate modeling deteriorate rapidly over time.

Indeed. There are always known or unknown reasons which something happens.

Chaos Theory according to you the Universe follow the cause and effect, a knowledge Satan observed and used often as he saw his benefit on that to propell himself. That's his know how of that, aside from other knowledge he oftentimes ignore as he seemed irrelevant because he likes the Biggies, the Macrothings, he forgot what God said, " the small things are greater than the largest", simple explanation, what constitute the big stars and galaxies in space which makes that work and move, you can make a guess, and that's only the surface knowledge of that. Chaos, why chaos, according to you there's slight time variation from an alteration of what's previous wherein everything become copycat of that as the cause and effect. It's because there's a study that were living in a 3 Dimensional world. Why 3? Of course that shall be sourced from the reason why everything was created, it's origin and the Real beings involved. God the Creator, His only begotten Son, the Holy Spirit, and everything created follow that Source of beings in essence and spirituality. Why Transfiguration, why 2 is to 1 from that parallelism. Because of the Father of Spirits God. Meaning Elijah have deeper meaning and Moses have deeper meaning the reason why as the dove land on Jesus shoulder the Father God said follow and obey my Son. The reason why Satan and Archangel Michael fought for the body of Moses because the name and word Moses have deeper meaning and the Angel Michael and Satan have both deeper meaning. If you will look at the surface the surface shall answer you, if you look at the depth or deeper that will answer you the way you tune your mindset to a reality of what your mindset comprehend for the time being the way your mindset shall be in that state of mind if you will stay that way of thinking. The Holy Spirit speaks primarily of the Spiritual then every wisdom created because the Holy Spirit was present when God and his Son created everything, read the scriptures and you will find they were 2 of them in Creation. The Son of Man is being human not just in appearance but in the heart and mind but he wasn't limited to that really, but being human in heart and mind is the start of the wholeness of a being and spirituality to the better. Know what Satan and Angel Michael represents in connection to Moses and youre closer to comprehension, know what Moses and Elijah represents in connection to Jesus, and know why in scriptures it was said by Christ " No one comes to the Father except through me, and why Jesus said I am the way and the Life no one comes to the Father except through me." Scientifically if time had beginning and end there's a median the present time, and if there's to and fro of time of like a pendulum there's O'clock in every angle of the pendulum, what's then are the cause and effect, of course the marbles hit by a marble to another marble of a pendulum of to and fro of time, what then are the marbles, the end marble from the start marble are our usual mindset to the later mindset then from the latest mindset as a new start to another end of that progressive mindset if progressive or becoming worst copycats. Mindset. States. States of Mind. Why? Because it's up there in the mind and body interaction, mind has electricity so is the heart moving the body with such. Mind have waves and frequencies and time have indentation, to what's your attraction point from the reference point because it creates weight in concentration the way there's mass in gravity, not just sins cause weight but states of minds. How can we then define the effects of chaos. It either conserve time in gravity, it either become chaos and creations of good or bad, better or worst, it either becoming simultaneously preo ccupied in thinking of so many things to do first because of knowledge accumulation of a being at versed with so many topics in speaking of a busy type intellect of not actually showy and the chaos internally of a composed mind thinking of control most of the time wherein he himself unknowingly being controlled by his uncontrolled sigma male hideous mindset of a chaos within the silence like how Einstein explained of the velocity and parallel movement of someone in a Train with other beings inside the carriage and someone horse back riding outside a train one enclosed one in open space, one observed, one not observed inside, expound in science prior to delving to the 3 dimensional Earth wherein Earth in Solar System said by experts to have singularity the reason why almost everyone on Earth wants to be number one but actually there's a 3 in them of not in particular order depends on mindset as the other 2 converged.

I'm genuinely grateful for the opportunity to engage in such stimulating discourse. It's a privilege not to be taken lightly.

Stream 'Butterfly Effect' in the debut album 'Divine All Love & Live' of ARTMS

you forgot to mention no atom bomb without Einstein

Your English provides an incorrect assumption. Einstein's work would EVENTUALLY have been duplicated and it is meaningless to speak of probabilities and actual inventions AFTER a sufficiently efficient butterfly behavior. A guesstimate of speculative or hypothetical nature: the new history might have taken ? long to duplicate. WW2 might not have happened at all....or rather an analogous conflict. Hirohito could have won antiwar fight in 1930s. Mussolini could have choked on linguini in 1928. Jews might have stayed in Germany....enough time after cause, the more and more incalculably unpredictable. Manyway fun have. What and which whyevs.

BBC great at such documentary/educational content.

The video is complete chaos. Even small adjustments can yield significant results! This principle extends to our habits too. 🌟

sometimes I wonder what big events could have been happened but the Butterfly Effect "prevented" such things becoming reality in our timeline.

This is wrong, we talk about albert as if there weren't other physicists..or would be the last one, what he learned came from books other people wrote lol. This is complete bs.

That introduction is highly misleading. Eistien died of heart failure not the strange car running over him theory....? Wtf was that seriously

So it's not predictable that without Einstein his models wouldn't have come out of any other's work.

beautiful explanation!!

Its true I don't have a clue about the markets most of time why and how why it moves❤❤🎉🎉

@Camilla Costa, excelente matéria! Congrats! Stay safe. Best from São Paulo, Brazil.

Thanks for sharing this new knowledge with us. 😊❤

Einstein admitted he did not know where all his ideas came from. Maybe from the Universe itself? If he or an Edison or a Tesla had never lived, someone else would have had similar ideas. "There is nothing inevitable as an Idea whose Time has come" - Victor Hugo

If i dont look in the toilet does it mean im not shitting blood😮

You know why the narrator sounds like robot? Because this video doesn't exist.

I would call Domino effect!!!

Baloney. Others would have done Einstein's work, with some delay

The same can be said of EVERYTHING we do 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Even all randomness that we realize mathematically is pseudorandomness

Chaos has always inspired me. Whether it's in stock market, nature or in human's lives. Chaos is everywhere around us and within us.

I don't know why but for me quadratic formula is more easier than factorisation

I think chaos theory effects events but that there is a higher level of determinism at work. NEO X

Every one say the final result is because of our work but there is luck which guide the road to success or deth. In my case deth.

Poincare was closed to discovering relativity. Other scientists like Feyman would have discovered quantum theory. No biggie.

In another variant, this video didn't feel like a complete jip

We don't invent anything, we only discover. The capability to make a smartphone has always been there if you think about it

Truly a simple guide to Chaos Theory, best presentation ever....

He was a black scientist I guess. Chaos theory lol

We will show them Our signs in the universe and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that this ˹Quran˺ is the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord is a Witness over all things? Holy Quran 41:53

This probably wouldn't happen. The discoveries were "in the air." There were problems that physicists faced that Einstein managed to answer. Had he not answered them, someone else would have. It might have taken longer, but it was going to happen.

it's like the series James Burke Connections you find 5 or 6 moments in time and then in retrospect you search for some connections, it doesn't matter how far fetched is long as it comes out looking like scientists know what they're talking about , example Thomas Edison saw a black dot inside a light bulb there for he invented television

A self-created phantasy.

The example sounded more like a many worlds exploration. How does Chaos theory and many worlds interpretation of quantum physics work with each other?

BBC should propagate the Gene Sharp theory.

maybe we have already killed someone who can help the technology enchanced alot, but we didn't know it, we might should have been living in galaxy, but without him/her, we failed to achieve it, and we don't know 😂

Imagine how knowledgeable and wise the creator must be who not only created every single particle in the universe and beyond but also knows the direction and speed of its movement, he can manage the direction of where they move, and how fast, creating newer things as per his wish.

Nice. Brief and simple explanation. The last statement says it all. "Our" limits of understanding. What are we and how significant are we in this universe or all the universes.

Mankind has always and will continue to strife for Perfection even though there is nothing like Perfection🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤

Millions of Monarch butterflies begin migrating from Mexico to North America. Do they cause any hurricanes or winter storms?

Thanks madam for your clear voice. Though I couldn't understand what is chaos theory, your talking give some understanding. As a believer in The Almighty God JESUS CHRIST, all things are under His control, I assure.

does someone know how this video was edited??

You may be able determine the speed of a particle. You may also be able to determine the position of the very same particle. However, by definition, if a particle has position then it has no speed. Similarly, if it has speed than it has no position. Vectors, I hear you say? Oh, please!!! You can not, therefore, simultaneously determine both speed and position. This makes accurate prediction impossible. It may be that a chain of events is predetermined, but ya just gotta wait to see how it all shakes out. Although, to be honest, I don't really know what a particle is, so my foundational basis for spouting off is shaky. Does anyone else believe that the Universe is the Creator, and created itself? I feel it has a much higher degree of plausibility than all those nonsensical origin stories that depend on obedience and money for survival, i.e. religion.

This video does a great job of breaking down chaos theory! 🌪 One key takeaway is how even minor events can have far-reaching consequences, which is crucial to understand in various fields. I think it's also important to recognize that while chaos complicates predictions, it doesn’t mean we can't identify patterns. For anyone interested in practical applications, consider how this theory can help in decision-making or risk management in business.

This somehow reminds me of arranged marriage. We plan everything, verify & cross check everything, analyse the data, have a spy over them, still after marriage we suffer & ask ourselves why did I marry in the first place? How stupid I was? Its the same right? its unpredictable, it has minor things which go unnoticed & then suddenly wife pickup the issue like a storm which we never saw it coming....Same same but different

How many Ancient Indian Texts translated to English by Max Muller while Colonial Period?? I wonder that how much those texts could helped the modern science through a team of people. We can still get the group photo of that team. They are now called as Modern Scientists !!

Too confusing!! Let's just call it "Shit happens, shit always happen effect!" Sounds like glorified BS to me. Wise ancient ones would just call it fate or destiny without the white gloss paint! The movement of a butterfly's wing tips will not cause a cyclone on the other side of the word.

Explaining the a event which happened and sayimg it a butterfly effect is a worst thing. It's like in world everything happening can be linked to butterfly effect. If it is a concept make it to predict what's going to happen. It's like in india most BABA's ready to deliver this kind of stories that you narrated and names it as butterfly effect as KARMA

Sorry, but not very accurate, or true. Unpredictability of outcomes derives from the inherent instability of apparently stable structures. Entropy rules in our universe. At times, stable structures can arise due to the energy expended by living beings, and other forces/agents of energy, that create more stable forms, but the inherent disorder we live in will always have its due. In the long run, we are all dead. The weather results from the interaction of an infinity of forces, particles, and spirits which are not possible to "model." The notion that one person, or a group of people, can use their combined energies to create a stable structure that predicts the weather, is a classic example of human hubris and myopic awareness.The unpredictability derives from our ignorance and limited understanding of how our universe works, not some theory of chaos. If these wannabe scientists can tie any proposed 'chaos theory' back to the fundamental uncertainty of quantum mechanics, then fine. Otherwise, please . .

The butterfly effect has very little effect within a regulated system, such as the planet Earth. Thus endless supplies of butterfly's on this planet have not led to daily unpredictable massively shocking chaotic outcomes. Meanwhile, capitalism, which does dictate a minimum wage, does not regulate maximum wage. Thus tiny butterfly effects here will lead to total disaster in the long run.

This video is totally misrepresenting the probabilistic nature of dynamic systems. Not to mention, due to the trends in science often makes different scientists (without knowing one other) work on same topics, so in case not one, then the oter will come up with a certain solution/theory/application/invention. Furthermore Einstrein and his theory of relativity is especially a very bad example because Finnish theoretical physicist Gunnar Nordström was also working on the topic.

The probability that an atom causes the regulation a of ALL is also very high for Believers.

The assumption of "we know how the universe works" is not right or an exaturation, actually we don't even know how much we don't know! And the "don't know" part is wayyy bigger than what "we know".

Chaos theory and it's butterfly effect has changed into bullshit theaory😂😂😂. Every change in present or future depends upon past ,still we humans haven't the wisdom to find this truth.😂😂😂😂😂.

Hers the real thing about butterfly effect, sure things that are known to exist become historical. But it’s only mans imagination that makes up different scenarios. If Einstein had not existed another man likely would derive his results, through out history only the man who climbed Everest first wins notoriety, while many men after and before tried and succeeded. Chaos theory is a better thought because everything has no true path, or least is harder predict.

I immediately think of life is strange

You people are already sold at a very cheap rate! No news so far regarding R G Kar Hospital murder in Kolkata! Probably your Kolkata correspondent received huge cut money but should not claimed that you are impartial.

The last sentence makes sense.. our knowledge about the universe is very much limited. Butterfly effect is in all our daily tasks,words and behaviours. This can be taken to measure how climate changes caused by humans greedy expansion as well

The stability of the Universe is because of String Theory Super Symmetry. Not even chaos could exist without them ;-) **EINSTEIN**

Really? These men of “science” take decades to understand the most simple principles of the universe, something you can understand after a couple of meditation sessions. Keep the good work Western “wise” men.

Use a time machine to move a quark out of place in an atom in a grain of sand on a beach 1000 years ago, and this is enough to change all human history and everything from that point. Everything you do means something, no matter how small, or worthless you think you are.

intro explanation is wrong. multiple events are occuring inter-relatedly so if a dont do it others may fill the gap due to pursuit of equilibrium outcome of vast interactive variable. butterfly effect is over rated. the more complicated a system the equilibrium condition is more robust. a mis-flap of a butterfly wing will not result in absolute unpredictability : chaos

This is embarassing, there is something called a damping factor in nature, f(x)=e^(-x) , so no butterfly effect...sorry dreamers.

No estoy de acuerdo. Si hubiera muerto, era cuestión de tiempo que otro lo hubiera hecho. Tardaría más o menos pero los descubrimientos son debidos a una atmósfera que impregna a mucha gente y no hay una única persona con ese conocimiento. Un ejemplo son Newton y Leibniz y el cálculo infinitesimal.

What's up with the backdrop

আপনি যদি আপনার সময় নিজের নিজস্ব ঘড়ি অথবা সার্বিক কোন বস্তুর অন্তরক্ষে রেখে দিন এবং নিজেকে অন্য সময়ের সাথে আগের সময়ের মিথস্ক্রিয়া করেন তবে আপেক্ষিকতর সাপেক্ষে সময়কে গাঢ় অনুভব করবেন

You should read bhagawat geeta..All Questions of universe will be answered..Thats the reason why people like steve jobs came to india :)

Nonsense, arrant nonsense. For any tiny little unusual or unexpected action or thing that might change the normal course of events, there are an infinite number of usual, logical and expected events oppossing or neutralizing the former.

If Einstein died before publishing his work then there would have been a delay by a few years for these theories to come out . Other physicists would have developed them . Just a delay by a few years .

If not Einstein, other man will come with that theory.. just like a car.. without Benz, everybody else will built a car.. it just a matter of time, because this life just have a linear and the same fate.. it always like that until the end of the universe

" O " is a letter and only has ' 1 ':syllable The correct pronunciation is " 0 " ( zero ) " The Year Is nineteen ZERO five. "

The beginning is not particularly smart, this would all happen, maybe a bit latter and as result of work of different people, could also happen earlier if medievalical ages were shorter due to some other accident

Hmm I understand the butterfly effect but I think somebody else will have discovered this and somebody else will have invented these things maybe just slightly later

Fatalism and predetermined fate. This all were practiced in southern india in th names of idealistic aasevagam . Life never always follow Newton laws, it will as uncertainty principle.

You are explaining the wave theory. One man's wave couldn't able to complete with the total population waves in the world. Or the other people human brains not yet ready to know his new inventions. Or the nature is not ready to gift the humans with new inventions or time doesn't come or the earth still needs to get approval from the sun or want to go more rotations around the sun.

The narrative around 01:00 that nothing would have happened without Western Scientists defining stuff on the basis of which edifices were built thousands of years ago itself is flawed.

The universe is not random and all other things she said at the end is exactly what God is Saying. This world is not random and they all follow the Will of God and the Will of God is not for man to predict so they can't.

For the same reason astrology predictions are never accurate. It is near impossible to predict who will be present when the predicted event is supposed to happen and how that person's stars will affect the people nearby.

I am a fluid dynamics engineer, and the butterfly effect has never made sense to me. This is because our atmosphere is self-calming. Without constant energy input from the sun it would rapidly calm itself to complete stillness. I think everyone can grasp this by imagining a butterfly flying on the other side of the yard. The butterfly effect suggests that this should sometimes result in a puff of chaos reaching you that can blow your hair back. This never, ever happens. And the laws of fluid mechanics applied at the scale of your backyard prove that it never will happen. The eddies produced by those wings will rapidly dissipate. The same laws apply globally.

So you mean to say that if the person who invented the wheel had somehow died before inventing it, we wouldn't have any machine that uses a wheel as a part of it's functional mechanism???
