I think every single card is 3 of hearts
Thanks so much for exposing us to all these great people, and the work they're doing.
Another fantastic episode Lex.
Thank you for providing such an incredible platform for stimulating conversation that broadens the understanding of the human race’s horizon.
Amazing footage of the rare striped tie Lex
Thanks lex..can't thank u enough...was waiting for this since months.. also I commented once to one of ur podcast asking for doing a podcast with Robert Langer.. thanks for this♥️♥️
This is such a rare episode, but very underrated. Thanks
I like the sound of "The Lex Podcast" or the "Lexcast"
Lexperience
@@jayantdhiren1234 thats the one!
Lexcast
So you like a super boring, typical name. And but what about when AIs are guests on the AI podcast?
Hey, just wanted to express my gratitude for what you do Lex. Your podcast is a true candyland for the brain. Coming from Computer Science my knowledge abot medicine and biology is limited but having you ask the "dumb" questions has made this episode truly enjoyable and made me apply for an internship in Bioengineering. Keep it up!
this man has been one of my inspirations for the last few years... thanks Lex for this!
Prof. Langer was my inspiration during my PhD studies. Loved watching this interview! Thank You!
I enjoy how you stop him and ask very basic questions because most of us who watch this video dont know what all the terms he is using so understanding is limited unless we know the basic words mean and how they are being applied this makes you a very good interviewer
Thank you lex this was beautiful appreciate your work it has changed my life
The hour flew by, great episode!
Ha, I'm not complaining at all, but I do wonder how many podcasts you managed to record before the pandemic and how many there are left to enjoy.
Have a great day, Lex.
In the Ben Goertzel Podcast #103, Lex referred to a very recent challenge he gave himself (it started the beginning of June), so that means that he is perhaps actively recording some podcasts. I am also curious about how many he has in the bank.
Love the series Lex. As a chemical engineer, I would love to see more interviews like these. Although I disagree on the difficulty of questions you ask here somewhat, I understand most people here may be completely new to the biotech field and therefore you ask Bob to explain a lot of the fundamentals. I would love to see more of the 'technical type' questions, even if I/others do not always understand it I think it's always interesting to hear. Looking forward to the next interview👌
Agreed. I appreciate that this is outside of the typical sphere of subjects covered and I'm so grateful that these interviewees give up their scarce free time for these interviews. But it seems important to respect that by pursuing questions that they are likely to be able to offer uniquely insightful answers to. Definitions of blood vessels and polymers are probably not those.
Another great podcast. Thanks a lot.
As always, great questions, Lex.
As always thanks for the content and I hope you stay safe man
You have a great podcast Lex. Rare content. Keep going 🙏
Fascinating discussion. Love it ! Thx
great podcast. Biotech can be hard to navigate but this was really interesting. More please.
Professor langer changed my life 6 years ago.
This man is my inspiration
He Is the best chemical engineer, I admire him , His research inspires me to wanted to practice my profession.
Good work Lex keep it up l, from Ireland ☘
lovely answer to the last question
Keep it up lex!
As a medical student, very inspiring stuff. Thank you Lex.
I would like to see Chris Hadfield on this podcast :) honestly that would be amazing, although I have seen many of his interviews, I would like to hear his thoughts on AI :D
Lexcast or The Lexicon 😎
Just imagine.. all the people from his podcasts in a single room.. just talking and walking around (with masks ofc)
Why has not been awarded Nobel prize so far?
Lex bro let's build
Bob Langer? Wow
Lex, are my eyes playing tricks on me? Are you wearing a blue, striped tie? And is that a navy jacket?
Worst rejections ever were from Nature and Science, this dude is next level.
WOW!
I love you Lex! Oh la la
Another brilliant interview. Lex, you're getting boringly predicable in that way.
We Need one on Afrika being the Center of Higher Education!!! Plato studied in Egypt for 13 years. Pythagoras studied Philosophy, Geometry and Medicine in Egypt for 22 years. Thales, the first Greek philosopher studied in Egypt. Hippocrates studied Medicine in Egypt for 7 years. Aristotle (384-322 BCE), spent some twenty years advancing his education in Egypt until the invasion of Alexander the Great in 332 BCE! The Greeks has evidence of even who they Afrikan Black Professors were!!! We can even Jump to Picasso! It’s SAD Comrades!!!
No black tie?
No black tie? 2020 keeps getting wilder
Hold the phone, stop the presses! Lex Fridman didn't wear a black tie! Scrap the BLM and Coronavirus and print Lex wears nonblack tie as the front page cover story!
Who's more cited than him?
All your black ties were dirty that day?
Hahahha
I was about to like the video... But then I saw it was at 666... For some reason I can't mess with that number...
First
@Chris Valin Do I smell jealousy? ;) Haha, just kidding I agree. Achinth Murali, you can make it a fun challenge to have the first most thoughtful comment, rather than just the first comment :)
Well actually it's not for you to determine who the video is for and what type of comments are permitted. He has posted one word that signifies some small joy and is clearly not intended to insult, belittle, criticize or harm anyone and will give others who are interested some joy as well. You on the other hand, arguably spending more energy, have created a comment that is nothing but rude and negative.
If you consider that a win, then good for you. Keep on keepin' on. If you're interested in letting go of some of the anger and/or insecurity that causes you to lash out like that then next time you read a comment try to remember that everyone's entitled to their own opinion and their own interests, and if it's not offensive, inaccurate or otherwise genuinely deserving of a reply, just let it go.
Biology is hard / complex to Engineer . Why ? Well we don't have mathematics for that ...yes we are in stone age of Biology !!
The title of the video says Robert. But you keep calling him Rob in the video....
The Gates Foundation?? Yikes.
I wouldn't buy candy from the neighborhood dealer.
"EDISON OF MEDICINE," LOLOLOLOLOL.
Are you high?
1 3:09...There are no miracles and magic; prayer is useless because there's *_nothing_* to pray to. We ignore science at our own peril.
2 Science begins when religion and magic end. Stopped watching at 3:13.
💕 ☮ 🌎 🌌
But... isn't modern science an religion?
Another fantastic episode Lex.
Thank you for providing such an incredible platform for stimulating conversation that broadens the understanding of the human race’s horizon.
