    As a biochem prof, I teach the bio and chem of these ideas in my classes, but don't touch so much on the philosophical areas which are interesting. One area I wish the video had explored is the fuzzy distinction between a colony and individual. Some colonies of individuals (such a bees, ants, termites) exhibit properties of a single multicellular organism. In some organisms (sponges, slime molds) the distinction between colony and organism is even more blurry.

      Well, sorry for yet again touching the metaphysical part of it; but - assuming we're a pattern - wouldn't the whole structure of the colony be a single living being? I mean, cells pretty much do the same, and are not considered individuals of their own. If a cell of yours died, would you be dead? Colonies just went bonkers with the idea.

      Indeed, curse Human's complex emotion systems. He baited us with the use of 1. cute design which stimulates pre-evolved baby sympathy emotions, 2. sad face self explanatory. 3. change in tone of voice to a more sympathetic one. We're very sensitive to tones of sound, since we're one of millions of organisms that have evolved to communicate with sound and since we're 1 of 2 groups of organism (primates and cetaceans (whale family) that have evolved really complicated vocalization systems. It's why we make/are sensitive to things like music. Well played.

      Itsa Me MrO not really. Science actually emerged from, yet is also distinct from, philosophy. They use two different methods of reasoning. Science is inductive, using observations and predictions to make claims that are very highly probable but never unquestionably true. Philosophy and mathematics use deductive reasoning. Logic is used to pursue and hopefully arrive at claims that are true by necessity. The line between the two can get very blurry though, as both types of reasoning have borrowed from the other. Hope that helps!

      You can replace your whole bode anatomically except your brain and you will still be you.
      You change something in your brain and you feel changed.
      Your same body with a different brain is a totally different person.
      A clone of your brain on a different body or an artificial body is still a clone of your brain.
      Yes it will have your memories and pattern of thinking, but once it starts its consciousness that cloned brain will experience life Different from you.
      2 brains although similar will not be the same for not two things can exist in the same space.
      Even Molecularly speaking it is impossible.
      A cloned brain is a cloned brain, once conscious, lives and experiences a different life.
      Your brain is you.
      Mental health is as important as Physical health.
      Mental exercises, INTROSPECTION diet, and many more can be done to boost your daily mind.

    As the video stated, this topic leaves science and enters philosophy. This has been a long standing philosophical question usually know as Ship of Theseus. The original question was: if you gradually replace every part of a ship, is it still the same ship?
    Heraclitus was also perceptive enough, depsite not having the knowledge of modern science, to suggest that since we're perpetually chaning, we don't actually have identities. "You can never enter the same river, since the water is always moving". Thus he said that "nothing is, but everything is becoming." One of his students, who's name escapes my memory at the moment, went even furhter and jokingly said that since names are attached to identity and we have no lasting identity, we shouldn't even name things, but simply point in them. (Kind of reminds me of that passage from '100 Years of Solitude' when Marquez writes: "It was back in the days when a lot of things weren't named yet and we had to point at everything").
    Another philosophical reference I rememebr is that of Marcus Aurelius in his "Meditations" who takes the view expressed in the video around 05:27, that since we all share the same elements and atoms (which at that point was thought to be undivisable (the meaning of the word atom) and eternal), our identity remains in them even after our death.
    Another view on the subject, also mentioned in the video, is that identity from the very get go was a mistaken concept. This view has been held by certain religions in Eastern Asia, such as certain types of Buddhism and Hinduism, and is also thoroughly discussed in Herman Hesse's "Steppenwolf".
    My own personal opinion is that identities are simply useful. Somewhat of a pragmatic view. As Bertran Russell said "matter is simply a convenient way of grouping events" so is identity a quite handy tool in order to actually avoid simply pointing at stuff. Alternatively one could say that the illusion of identity, if it is indeed an illusion, is so strong that for us it may as well be true. Once again, this a sort of pragmatism of Peirce and James, but in this insatnce I'm willing to subscribe to it. I am a completely different person, both physically and mentally, from that time when I deposited money into my bank account, but let me pretend for the sake of convenience that I'm the same person, so I can have the money to buy things...

      Very well thought-out comment. Reminds me of the way Alan Watts put it:
      "The feeling that we have of an enduring organism -- I meet you today and I
      see you, and then tomorrow I meet you again, and you look pretty much
      as you looked yesterday, and so I consider that you're the same person,
      but you aren't. Not really. When I watch a whirlpool in a stream, here's
      the stream flowing along, and there's always a whirlpool like the one
      at Niagara. But that whirlpool never, never really holds any water. The
      water is all the time rushing through it. In the same way, a university,
      the University of California -- what is it? The students exchange at
      least every four years; the faculty changes at a somewhat slower rate;
      the building changes, they knock down old ones and put up new ones; the
      administration changes. So what is the University of California? It's a
      pattern. A doing of a particular kind. And so in just precisely that
      way, every one of us is a whirlpool in the tide of existence, and where
      every cell in our body, every molecule, every atom is in constant
      flux, and nothing can be pinned down."

      I would like to point out that this comment is much deeper than it appears when you think about it. It is easier to deal with absolutes than it is to deal and properly work with foggy/hazy borders. It is also easier to be bad than it is to be good, and less comes from being good than from being bad on an individual scale.

      I thought the upload timing was just a lucky coincidence and was about to comment on that... when the voice transitioned to that of CGP grey!
      (awesome transition BTW!)
