    This is a video about how science is both inherently political and apolitical. And how hopefully we won't end up in nuclear war...

    "Genetic modification isn't always bad."
    Dude, genetic modification is AWESOME! That is, it is when you have proper controls on it and you make sure you do all the proper testing to make sure your result is safe to use in its intended manner. It ain't GMOs that are bad, it's companies not caring if the GMOs they make are safe or not and releasing them either way.

    • @KalStorch
      @KalStorch 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      The thing that stood out the most in the entire video (for me) was when he said, "Curiosity tells me things I don't want to hear, like... genetic modification isn't always bad." It saddens me that such a bright guy's default worldview is that genetic modification is *always* bad, since, like you said, genetic modification is awesome, and we owe a lot of modern day life to it.

    • @AuroCords
      @AuroCords 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I wouldn't interpret it like that.
      Keep in mind the videos are about 3 mins long and he has to fit a lot of important info into them, so he can't have the freedom fully to explain his viewpoints on all things he considers relevant to mention, especially in this one.
      To me he wanted to throw it out there, for people who might be very close minded about it, that GM isn't always bad, along with other examples.
      Similar to when he said that "curiosity tells me I'm not gonna live forever" it's obvious that he didn't think that before LOL
      So yeh I'm sure he knows about the bacteria modified to produce insulin and other examples of GM working out well.
      However, GM is still very delicate when it comes to higher organisms, and I reckon we should always be very cautios about it, especially things we eat and or put out in ecosystems, or that could destroy the economy of already poor countries through nonsense intellectual property laws or abusive contracts they trick farmers to sign to get them in debt (monsanto).

      @Johnathan Swagg, North Korea isn't really a problem. If they become, its like 3 nukes on their capital and the entire elite is gone there. Not that most of the population there would even notice, most of NK doesn't have cars, electricity etc. They just haven't the capacity to start a full world war 3. They may have maybe 2-3 nukes at some point tops... go look at the superpowers... much more problems there. On both sides a 5 year old kid with a tantrum on top.

    Don't blame curiousity, blame greed, envy and all other factors. It's as if you fault freedom because some people kill. That's stupid, curiosity is inocent, has no intentions, the production of weapons are not directly related to it, fact is, it gave us freedom. And how we use it, defines good or bad.

    • @GermansEagle
      @GermansEagle 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Henry, it's such an amazing video! I'd like to say that recently, on my second year of college, I feel like my brain is going to explode, saturated with info, and I don't even watch the news... I kind of got stuck at 'I know that I know nothing'. I've always been curious to understand how things work. Instead of just accepting formulae and theories, curiosity makes me want to understand deeper what leads us to believe they're true... But sometimes I feel exhausted (like this emoji: 🤤), like it's not worth it to seek for so much knowledge and then I wish to simply do nothing or go live a simple life far away in the country side. I am curious, I want to build knowledge, but often I find myself in this dilemma of 'is it worth it?'.
    Maybe I'm having too many classes... Well, I'm trying to sort it out and find a way out of this dilemma and find pleasure in curiosity again.

    20 years ago I understood the exact thing this video talks about.... now, I'm cured.
    I'm like a branch on the ocean, just going where life takes me. I put no effort in, I try for nothing and I aim for nowhere.
    The ocean of life shows me what it wants to show me, nothing more, nothing less.
    I've met some amazing people, not that I wanted to meet them or tried - they just happened to be where I was, at the same time I was there. I've also met some nasty people, for the same reason.
    Curiosity helps you learn about the world you live in, a lack of curiosity helps you learn about yourself and others around you at the time.

      Luisa Botero I don't think annoyance at being wrong is a natural human condition, I mean, surely being wrong can be a good thing because it provides an opportunity for further learning. Schools are the reason for people being annoyed at discovering they're wrong if they thought they were right, in my opinion. They teach you not to fail, not how to learn from that failure.

    Aaaaactually wars and battles got much smaller with the passage of time. Archeologists found prehistoric war sites with evidence for hundreds of thousands of warriors. While the ancient armies counted in tens of thousands, medieval armies were regularly only a couple thousand strong. Now we count armies in battalions, which are measly around 500 each. We deal death faster and more efficiently, but on a much smaller scale.

    It's a matter of perspective.
    If I'm about to freeze to death, I'd gladly go through door #2
    If Zombie moon-Nazi's who are riding mecha-pterodactyls that shoot lasers threaten to destroy the world, I wouldn't mind going through door #4 either.
    Sometimes going through the doors teach us alot of new things, (mostly more bad things), but then we strive to create even more doors, (therefore making even more bad things)
    Such things can barely be avoided, but as long as we know something is bad and refrain from doing it again, we should be good.. unless of course, it's a major fuck-up that wipes the entire planet from existence in one go.

    I've worked with a lot of "practically-minded" folks who consider satisfying curiosity and seeking understanding (how stuff works) to be a waste of time (money). They are more interested in short-term productivity than long-term payoff. Then when something goes wrong, they are completely clueless on how to proceed or correct the problem, and will often just ignore it, or push it onto someone else.

    All powerful tools have the potential for both "good" and "bad". The tools themselves have no biases, we're the ones that bring that to the table. But I'm not so sure that means that we shouldn't ever use any tools. I feel like it's more about learning how to use them "properly" (without destroying ourselves, for example). So don't give up on curiosity just yet! With the right balance of understanding the tools, each other, and ourselves, we can achieve great things!

  • @maxwellgrossman
    @maxwellgrossman 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    If we weren't human, curiosity would be the greatest thing of all time, but being human is unstable. We have emotions and sometimes we don't know how to deal with the answers we get back. This ironically causes you to ask another question, "Should we follow our human side or get out their and explore even if it hurts us?"

  • @njarlblack1467

Our curiosity is so big, we can't control it. Even if we know it's theoretically false or not logic. It pushes us so hard, that we HAVE too explore unknown things.
    Just one thing is bigger. Money. The materialised form of time. But this is another story.

    I have a superposition question. I apologize if my diction is incorrect or not percise enough. This may have already been asked and answered before, but I was unable to find any answers.
    So let me begin
    What if you had a treat on a table and a dog was staring straight at it. You then proceed to use your hand to block the dog from being able to see the treat. And kind of like with Schrödinger's cat, you place something that has a 50% chance of destroying the treat. This experiment occurs and the dog is unable to see the outcome but you can. What would the superposition of the treat be.? Would it be destroyed and not destroyed or would it also be those along with the actual outcome? Or would there be no superposition because you can see the outcome and the result is certain? Essentially, does your POV and the dogs have a different definition of the superposition of the treat or does it eliminate the superposition altogether? Once again I apologize for the diction. I am only in high school physics and I do not know much of the terminology beyond kinematics. Thanks!

    Let me point out an issue with this point of view : curiosity and human nature are two different things. animals have curiosity, like when penguins try to see what's going on with researchers around them. the ingenuity to transform a tool into a weapon is distinctive of humans' pursue of vital needs, as survival, food, and reproduction became power, shelter, and entertainment. In the end of the video, "curiosity only opens the doors and lays down the facts, it's up to us to decide which doors we want to go through" (something like that) - that's completely correct. but it's not a reason to break up with curiosity, as curiosity and innovation are not incompatible.

    Swords are more of a self-defense weapon. For cold steel weapons that kill, you'd rather say the spear (war) or dagger (assassination). But the sword is inefficient as a weapon of war, unless it's paired with a shield (the shield very much is a weapon of war). However, it is an easy weapon to wear at the hip as a back-up or for emergency in an ally-way.
