I dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
Tao is a very good communicator. Modest, fluent, responsive, considered, honest, and humorous. Very good person, a great scholar and a gentleman to the core.
I had dinner with professor Tao few years back (he was a visiting professor and the math department organised a small group dinner). Hands down one of the most humble nicest people in the field! He seemed shy and no ego despite all the success and accomplishments
I was fortunate to attend his complex analysis online classes, which during the pandemic was open for non-UCLA students as well. His lessons had deep impact on me. I also followed up with him on an ambitious list of things to study, and I am still in the phase of self-learning many of these things. He is one of the best persons I have ever interacted with, he knows the mindset of students very well, he inspires you to think about mathematics, and he is very meticulous, humble and even in some cases approachable (I have found myself sometimes totally stuck while studying something and then asking him via an email or by posting a question on his weblog, always attracts his attention and he replies in a way that clears the doubt and more importantly offers better insights). If I ever do well as a mathematician, Professor Tao will be one of the reasons behind it.
@@physicsforever4793 well yes in that sense it’s hard to get him because you can’t be that well associated with him. Therefore you don’t know for sure if he will participate in an interview with someone he could interact with.
Genius doesn't only depend upon your innate intellectual ability but also the environment you are brought up in, all the experiences you've had. It's also a result of teamwork because you can't do it alone.
It's interesting that superficially he doesn't conform to the naive idea of what a really intelligent person sounds like. He speaks with clarity and precision but there's nothing flamboyant about his speech. If I got talking to him somewhere and didn't know who he was I wouldn't walk away from the conversation thinking that I had just spoken to one of the smartest men in the world. It makes me think that seeming-intelligent is mostly a type of performance.
Dr Tao is surely amazing, but the teenage interviewer did a good job in this interview too. She didn’t interrupt too much and gave appropriate responses
Her questions were very generic and unmotivated. Surprised Tao was able to keep up being not seeming bored. Rather him appear on the numberphile podcast or something
@@bournejason66 Hi. i like her questionss too. But she cut him and he has so much to tell. check just before 07:00 when he s speaking about zero and the influense of the concept on a society/ human mind. etc. He just finish with a "sad" yeah. I understand she had prepared the interview, make a plan, and had to respect the lengh. This man has so much to tell, and so few people can know what he may thinks about ( i m not one of them :) )
@@hhhhhhhh6008 His IQ is probably pretty low as well compared to yours if I were to guess, not to mention you seem to have much more creativity compared to him...he's probably a copycat
Hi it’s my question. I’ve visited psychiatrist and get my depression and memory medicine. But I still can’t do math. Is it genetic or should I leave my dream to become engineer? Also should I visit geneticist or neurologist to see, what my talent is.
Some people are just innately worse at maths than others. You may have something called dyscalculia, you should search it on google and see whether it's TRUE for
@@thetruth7105 if you can add, subtract, divide, multiply and work with fractions, you dont have dyscalculia. It's quite rare. If you have problems with stuff like calculus or algebra a lot of others do too, practice and perseverance will be important to be a successful engineer
Hey guys, I have a theory According to my theory, each and every universe has a parallel universe in which each and everything us appeared starting from the back How do like my theory??
What a GEEK! His parents FORCED math on him practically from birth. They try to make it sound like he is so special that he would pick up a calculus book and read it all on his own initiative.
The interviewer is horrible. Always interrupting and cutting him off, jumping immediately to the next question, and nonstop “mhms” and yeahs”. Loved Terry’s responses though, I wish we were able to hear everything else he had to say, but unfortunately, he got interrupted every single fucking time
Alright alright he isn't very in-depth in his open conversations like this here and his stuff are usually completely impossible to understand but... It sounds like you know him personally as if you have eyes in his head 🧐🤨😤.
Kind sir, you're in a wrong lane. Why don't just watch Donald Trump on Fox News and get off? Trump is the epitome of humility and perfect for people like. Please vote for him in 2024.

It's insane how humble he is, I think this is the first time watching a genuine genius on TH-cam.

He is such a fluent communicator. He answers so quickly but very accurate.
I think it's cute that the most replayed section is at the beginning of the section about him helping his kids with homework.
It’s always a pleasure to listen to Dr. Tao
Keep it up, YSJ. You're doing a great job communicating STEM and also publishing research papers of young students. Loved this interview, absolutely!!
Recently he reached a breakthrough in the Collatz Conjecture. 👍
He got close.But nowhere near solving it.
@@legendarynoob6732does it matter lol
I’ve run into Dr. Tao once or twice at university, I was a bit star struck when it happened 😂
Well, maybe next time watch where you going 😂
so cool bro，what college you going？
@@parvdize3968 Ucla, which makes this situation far more probable lol
@@MrHirenP LMAO
Nice! Getting Terrence Tao for an interview is difficult.
How do you know
@@hhhhhhhh6008 bcoz I do podcasts. I tried to get him, but couldn't.
@@physicsforever4793 well yes in that sense it’s hard to get him because you can’t be that well associated with him. Therefore you don’t know for sure if he will participate in an interview with someone he could interact with.
@@physicsforever4793 thats what i said
@@hhhhhhhh6008 yeah, sorry. I understood it in a different way.
i could listen to this mans analogies all day!
Genius doesn't only depend upon your innate intellectual ability but also the environment you are brought up in, all the experiences you've had. It's also a result of teamwork because you can't do it alone.
Truth!
it is a very nice talk. I appreciate choosing questions
I love how Dr Tao slowly goes from being in the center of the frame to the bottom right
Keen observation 😂

Didnt see this one until now, Terrence is such a great guy.

Exactly
Everything from minute 3 or so onwards I think we’re good. Before then seemed like icebreakers
I like her questions actually. Maybe she didn’t ask him his favorite color that you like to know?😆
@@bournejason66 LMFAO!!

Great interview!
Many thanks for this great interview!
Terence Tao is the best living mathematician in the world.
His Brain at 3000 Hz, Mouth at 60 Hz, A Genius ,,,,
And your comment is unoriginal, copied from other user's comment
Thanks, i love professor tao
Great work!!
Es excelente que Terence Tao estudie español. Excelent interview
Pair Tao + Perelman would be such a great duet!
lmao Perelman wants to be left alone. He even quit math.
Might as well throw in the Pope while you're at it!
Whenever I listen him....just wow
Nothing that great, he doesn’t seem that good at creative/divergent thinking from the point of view of this interview
@@hhhhhhhh6008 His IQ is probably pretty low as well compared to yours if I were to guess, not to mention you seem to have much more creativity compared to him...he's probably a copycat
@@david50665your very confused lmao!
@@hhhhhhhh6008 stop it with your false modesty
@@david50665 never, will you elicit where I waswrong in my first comment, or else your just a troll!
Great interview. Keep it up.
Wow!,.... Such a considerate person.
great questions !
I want to know if his genius has helped, hurt or had no impact on his social skills?
Great job.
私は数学者になりたいということに気付きました。代数学の勉強をしていきます。
今はどうなっているんですか？勉強は順調？
GREAT VIDEO! Liked and subscribed ❤
A great interview. Thank you.
Tao likes galaxy quest, genius confirmed. 😊
Hey! Try 1 with Akshay Venkatesh Pls
/Adoraria conversar com Terence Tao.
You are a good teacher, Tao ㄷ:
And you are a very good interviewer ㅜ

the prankster gangster i can add and subtraction, but doing math in my mind is hard. Also I can’t do arithmetic.
Hit like if you want manjul bhargava for the interview
His a real special man☆ very very special FAMILY ...☆☆☆♡
Is this an Indian journal?
His initials TT kinda looks like Pi
He's two turnt he's too ttd
Hello
couldnt you have asked any deeper questions
Who gives a fuck you shouldn't care bout nothin fam
Hello my friend terence tao have a great day big mathematical
is math related to science ?
no
Yes.
Of course
To all you nerds who gave me a straight answer here. I give you the ultimate "swooooosh". th-cam.com/video/VbUoaBJd2sA/w-d-xo.html
O maior matemática vivo.
Thanks Dr Tao
Does he follow cricket?
Hey guys, I have a theory
According to my theory, each and every universe has a parallel universe in which each and everything us appeared starting from the back
How do like my theory??
I think tao is tired of these questions。
His Aussie friends call him Tezza! 😆
i challenge terence tao to maths test lol E=MC2 LOL
I can't understand a thing
I wanna see this dude play minecraft
The asian kid
The Asian kid
oh he is handsome. Most huge talents are not so handsome 😅
She is such a horrible interviewer
"Oh wow that's interesting. Moving on"
I cringed so hard just listening to the transitions lol
What a GEEK! His parents FORCED math on him practically from birth. They try to make it sound like he is so special that he would pick up a calculus book and read it all on his own initiative.
Terence Tao's biggest achievement is not in mathematics but in having the world's largest nostrils.
look at that ugly big nostrilled manjul Bhargava, manjul Bhargava's big nostrils are more larger.
Great guy, nice genius, good for the future

This guy is so arrogant it is very disgusting. Too bad he never learned humility or compassion for others.
No, never say something negative...
But you don't even know him 😂
Alright alright he isn't very in-depth in his open conversations like this here and his stuff are usually completely impossible to understand but... It sounds like you know him personally as if you have eyes in his head 🧐🤨😤.
Awww are you jealous of his success?
