Sickening having one of these fascistic social engineers on, Lex. Do your research on the WEFs nwo agendas mate.
Well, its funny how hard working Asian American men are castrated and neutered by the western media while at the sametime promote racist Asian fetish. Now, that shows you human nature, this is what happens when you are too nice. I'm really surprised Asian men didn't fight back for so long. They should
Lex, you don't know what means "home" for russians? Go home means go into your borders and stay there!
Always edifying conversations with Yuval, Lex. Oчень хорошо!
Yuval : 'Cabals don't control everything'
Blackrock , Vanguard State Street : 'Yet'.
I sometimes, just sometimes get the feeling some interviews are intended as a subtle 'look ..over there' way of dispelling one narrative and inserting another.
he spiced a lie with some truth and clearly it's visible which one is which one, guy is just too confident in his lies and his ego is orbiting
@@tommyp1494 Yeah, very few comments on the actual show content just the same botlike repetitive Lex love.
@@tommyp1494Exactly I agree. Lex wont do it. He is smarter than he wants you to believe and his kindness persona seems fake Because Where are the TOUGH questions??? Maybe he is a weirdo as well Lex and likes to go to go deep in shit without actually understanding the consequences of not being careful with your words.
@@tommyp1494Id be willing to bet they are bots. I can’t remember the number but something like 50% of internet users are bots now. We should trust nothing.
@@tommyp1494bru i was starting to think i was the only one. the comments straight up have a template and it’s not even subtle. on some chat gpt sht with good grammar and everything
The ability to cooperate in unlimited numbers is the super power of humanity.
Absolutely
Wrong. This world belings to GOD!
"Our brains love language so much, that we do not need something to be correct. We just need it to be a beautiful story". For me, this summarizes this video's most important aspects.
Sounds like you believe in liars.
@@stupideunuchs6513 You believe your own lies.
Very intelligent reply 👌
“Our brains love language so much that we don’t need the facts to be correct, we just need it to be a beautiful story.”
~Lex Friedman
Music, architecture, aesthetics etc.
Yup, maybe: But not me, I can see. I'll eat with a fork, all you talk? Not me, I will be, .
@@BR-hi6yt ok, that’s a confusing reply 👌🏻
@@CamelxRavenNova2 Maybe a bot or AI ;)
@@Tangerinka410 your probably right
I realized this about people a few years ago, I have friends that believe farout conspiracy theories because they are more interesting than the boring truth. You can also see it in sales and marketing, I know people that buy beer based on the story printed on the label. For example, a lost family receipe from 1866, small batch, stored in oak casks from the Tuscany region or what ever, people eat it up.
I am Jordanian and also a Muslim Arab (insert stories), I began learning about civics and specifically American democracy just a week before the Israeli protests or demonstration, and I came to appreciate all the ideas of the European Enlightenment period, including those of john locke, and the ideas of the social contract, sovreignty of the People, Seperation of Power, and so much more and most relevant to this topic: the importance for checks and balances between the different segments of goverment (i.e. the ability for the judicial governemnt to "check and balance" the executive governemnt). It's sad to learn about what is happening in Israel and I can understand the frustrations of the people who are demonstarting. Yuval has been a long "look up" in my google search history. I read his book Sapiens when it was just days old. Observing Israel and then seeing Yuval speak in public has inspired me and I can appreciate this content, Lex.. And here I am writing a comment knowing I will be accompanied with anxiety caused by my inner "Stan" that will affect my confidence. Any ways hope who stumbles upon this comment appreciate the necessity to learn about civics and governance especially when attempting to understand these laws, policies, and their History.
thanks so much for this beautiful comment. support from Israel.
No such thing as American democracy
The childless commies in Israel & dog owners will lose their dictatorial powers if the judiciary becomes democratized.
@@albasdumbledorf5113 what countries are a better model of democracy, then the constitution and republic of the USA?
After having read the civics of western society, and observing and living near Israel.
Do you think the Palestine people would be better served by new Palestine leaders, than the current Palestine leadership?
From afar it seems the Palestine leadership is redundant and not progressive with peace reform, compromise, & uplifting the political, economic and social environment.
What I really like is that you bring on peole with completely different outlooks on things, for example having had both Harari and Kennedy in the last few weeks. I despise Harari and what he is trying to accomplish for the WEF. But I could be mistaken about him, my perception could be wrong so I will watch this and maybe change my views. It is absolutley crucial that all people can have a voice and be heard and this channel is so valuable because of that.
While I disagree with you I’m going to say thanks for this comment, 99% of the others are just people saying he’s the “antichrist” based upon nothing. It’s rare to find someone open to change his mind and to listen to what the other side has to say
Love this comment because I've the opposite opinion (distrustful of Kennedy and a positive bias to harari). But I am on the same page about this channel the the entertaining of contrasting ideas.
What do you think he's trying to do for the WEF?
@@fafolaw he's on record saying that he wants to drug poor people and lock them in pods with video games because they're useless. Words to that effect. He's a monster
@@happyd9733 Source? I'm 99% sure that he never said that, that's ridiculous, I've watch many of his interviews and read his books
OMG the "it goes against the laws of nature" response is pure, simple, unassailable brilliance! Thank you.
Homosexuality?

Whenever there is dilemma or doubt on any issue whatsoever, I check it out with Nature and there is the answer.

Hi, I took some notes with interesting/ novel ideas shared in this episode. I am sharing them below in case someone would like to quickly remind themselves of what was discussed.
- Difference between Intelligence vs Consciousness (solving problems vs feeling and suffering)
- Plants hold intelligence
- Pigs are more intelligent than dogs but convention says dogs have more consciousness
- What happens when personal relationships with ai make it conventional for some people to believe that the code has consciousness? (ethical problems surrounding legislation)
- People are superior to other creatures because stories make people connected en masse
- The most successful story is about money
- To decide if a story is real, you have to ask if it can feel (a nation cannot feel but the soldiers who died can feel)
- Ability to suffer as a test for consciousness
- Danger: anthropomorphization of suffering in AI (eg ai saying “Where have you been! I don’t see anything on your calendar” so jealousy) can hack into our operating system and make us believe that AI suffers - someone can use it to manipulate people
- Religions are different than other stories (such as nations) because their rules are not amendable
- Are you a liberal? yes if you agree that people should have:
- a right to choose their government
- a right to choose their destiny (profession, personal life)
- a right to choose their spouse
- Israel and Palestine: no motivation for a two-state solution on the side of Israel which has grown in power immensely in the last 10 years
- The development of high-tech surveillance methods meant that the occupation of Palestine became less costly and less bloody
- Harare claims that the system politicians go for now is a three-tier citizenship system:
- 1st Jewish Israelis
- 2nd Arab citizens of Israel
- 3rd Palestinians living in occupied Palestine
- peace is always possible but there is a lack of motivation
- Conspiracy theories: it is impossible for a small group of people to control world events because real history shows us that big groups of people hold a lot of power, do a lot of planning and things still proceed against the plan
- Introspection (acc to Harari one of the better human qualities) is non-verbal and comprehended through experience
- Meditation is not relaxing because you cannot predict what stories and memories will come up. Boredom is also tricky because it is connected to feelings of worthlessness. However, the way to peace is through boredom.
- The most important skill young people need to learn is the skill to keep learning new things. No one can predict what the world will look like in 10 years. Build your mind as a flexible mind.
- If something goes against the law of nature, it doesn’t exist. The scientific framework for condemning homosexuality doesn’t hold up.
- Life is feeling things and reacting to them. To understand life you need to observe it in a non-verbal manner. Try to answer “what really is happening when you suffer?”
Yuval doesn't even know what the term consciousness means. It does not mean emotion (or the ability to feel emotion). Consciousness means what it is like to be (that thing). Even a rock has consciousness.
@@TheeFitnessEnthusiast Consciousness is the ability to experience.
@@Marcus32131 some would call this sentience ; in science, consciousness usually means more sth like self-awareness
How much Ritalin/Adderall did you take to do that??
@@TheeFitnessEnthusiast human consciousness is entirely dependent on feelings, any other type of consciousness is purely fictional since we never experienced it so in my opinion his definition works
This is actually a mind-torture tactic. To be doing something to your victim while claiming you're not, and trying to make your victim out to be crazy. This is the final move before force comes into play.
poor Palestinians
Typical process of the sociopaths
Gaslightng
This is the true definition of gaslighting.
@@UC0FVA9DdusgF7y2gwveSsng gaslighting is a term that is used very loosely in everyday conversations, often referring to lies told by a spouse or a partner. That's why I said that this is the true meaning of gaslighting.
thank you both for this interview. it was such a pleasure watching, feeling and being aware of the things discussed
" pleasure" in all its all ambivalent " reality' ?😮
What about asking about his involvement with the WEF and how it is influencing governments to take action on important issues, yet no one has elected them? This would be the #1 question to ask this man.
Yea but that wont happen because Lex Friedman s podcast is about leveraging technology to perpetuate the capitalist order. We are already being enslaved 9-6 pursuing meaningless occupations designed to help the ruling class concentrate wealth in ever fewer hands. Does Lex Friedman ever raise this as an issue?
typical lex d zuking questions.. he should b way more critical
That's what NGOs do?
“The future is not just happening. The future is built by us, by a powerful community, as you here in this room. We have the means to improve the state of the world . . .” -Klaus Schwab. So clearly there’s no conspiracy to see here!

@@kyledrake9750 only one person runs BlackRock and another one Vanguard. What do you think theyre doing?
All the Authoritarian Leaders shared the same skill - 'psychopathy in action', and the ability to say or do anything, without feeling embarrassed or ashamed, and without any kind of ethos or principles, other than the idea that everyone should listen only to them. That is the story they tell, and desperate frightened people lap it up.
Yep, the average person is more frightened and less enlightened about the truth than you.
I could've sworn there was a totally and different and more plausible Story told about the 3rd Reich in this Podcast. But maybe i am just didn't get it.
We proles love to elevate psychopathy.
The part where he says that only mainstream ideas are constructive and conspiracy theorists are only spreading hate says it all. How is what he is doing not hatespeach? Because he tells it nice?
100%
Yuval is an amazing communicator and thinker. His work in AI and questioning where this is all going is direly needed and I am totally impressed with his take on what is happening in Israel right now. Fascism is indeed on the march and his discussion of all these issues is so thought-provoking and truly brilliant
I can sit all day and listen to YNH talk ❤
I wish Israelis and Palestinians calm down for few minutes and listen to him and realize they only fight over a story, and nothing more.
Narratives have ideas, ideas have powers, ideas change people, motivate them!
I followed Mr. Hararai's presentation when he gives advice on how to think and says what is important for the new generations of people to come. He says that a person must constantly reinvent himself and make changes, I think that is not the way a wise person should go. If you are constantly working changes in yourself and you keep inventing yourself, in fact you always go back to the starting point and keep going around in circles. People need to learn, meditation is also desirable, I also meditate and make notes afterwards, but one thing I want to say is when a person really learns and realizes new things, he does not reinvent himself and must not change, because then he returns to the starting point and rejects the knowledge he has acquired, knowledge must not be erased and reinvented, it must only be built upon and expanded, because no one knows where the limit is our knowledge and we must carefully guard it and not constantly invent ourselves, because in this way they reject the acquired knowledge and fall into the trap that someone else thinks for them and injects them with new knowledge according to their goals and plans.
So, to conclude - my people, study as much as possible to be as educated as possible and constantly supplement your knowledge and expand it.
My favorite aspect of the 21st century is the ability to see my enemies in high definition hours at a time.
frightens me that few peoples in the comment section know who this guy really is.
@@johnmachter40right
Something I've noticed on any video of Yuval that is odd, in the comments section you always get a huge number of very young accounts, praising Yuval and how amazing he is, almost like someone is running a bot farm on any video he appears in...

It's problematic for a dishonest (or untruthful?) mind.
@@jewjew4204 truth is simple, people who describe it as complicated usually do so before discarding it. In a lot of ways, Harari is completely blind to geo politics and culture, this is why truth is complicated for him, it’s because he doesn’t have truth.
My reaction (from The Netherlands)... Thanks for your all the intervieuws with people with so many different sights of the the world. I helps me to think about things in so many different ways. To try to be open. I often say: "Every day I am learning". And I am!!! I am 68 years old, this learning process is still going on. Thanks to you and so many other thinkers. Always look at both ways. I Wish you well.
One of your all time great podcasts Lex. YNH just seems to be incredibly knowledgeable about every single subject on planet Earth
I spent time ruminating about the conversation with Yuval Harari.
YNH gave me much food for thought
Knowledge and even intelligence does not necessarily denote wisdom. Intelligence and knowledge drives the impulse towards 'can such or such be accomplished?' whereas knowledge tempered with wisdom tends towards the impulse of 'should such or such be accomplished?'. I hope that you are intelligent enough to comprehend the significant difference! YNH clearly utterly lacks such wisdom!
This guy is anti-human filth.
This man has said some fucked up stuff about people and humanity as a whole. Wonder why Lex didn't ask him about it.
Part of the same team.
@@presidentdonaldbump150 I am truly beginning to believe this as well. I loved his interviews about black holes and physics, Etc, but he sure has had some scumbags on lately
You're not the only one who noticed
They delete the bad comments. Dont worry people know who he is despite it being memory holed. He will be the new WEF leader. "What will we do with all the useless people, we will drug them and make them play videogames" he is pro authoritarianism
The part about boredom being connected to feelings of worthlessness, which in my case will lead to guilt and anger towards myself. WOW ! It felt like balm to hear him say that...even if you intuit it and know it on some level, hearing another person pinpoint and articulate it, is liberating. Compassion, starting with self compassion, listening and conversing with each other to try and understand who we really are, it is moving. Thank you Mr Harari and Mr Fridman for this wonderful conversation.
All we need Is a goal like walk 2 miles every day . Or run 10 miles. Or walk 1 mile. Just even 1 tuff but reachable goal helps me 😊
@@gaberoyalll I think that missed the point @lublack3236 was making. To be bored has 2 components - the one you pointed at - an inability to engage oneself but also a second and depper meaning - an inability to engage another consciousness/person enough to command their attention. One feels worthless because here you are in a world of 8 billion people and nobody seems to be interested in spending their time with you - speaking generally of course - sure if you are a young attractice woman you can hold someones engagement but with the clear understanding that its transactional. Not sure there's a solution to the second challenge other that deep personal work and societal overhaul.
100B have lived and died already...

This was my second auditing of Lex 390. Once was not enough!
Noah loves long interviews? So do I - with him, the genius with heart.
Lex Fridman is a rare one as interviewer, with heart.
This is the best two hours I've ever spent on TH-cam.
Thank you Lex for continuing to ask advice for young people from all your guests. I hope to see that tradition continue in future podcast episodes.

I asked chatGPT to convince me I should have ice cream tonight, Yuval Noah Harari style:
"As the stars emerge to paint the night sky, and the world's cacophony softly subsides, seize this fleeting moment to delight in ice cream's unpretentious allure. Embrace the symphony of taste and the rush of emotion it brings. Allow it to remind you of the small, remarkable joys that give life its richness and purpose."
Ice cream is a lie. Take the red pill instead.
Harari would be one of the few men who have understood what J Krishnamurti tried to say about meditation, life, observation etc.
This interview deserves an award, incredible.
Agree 100%!
You really got the best of Yuval by letting him just talk all the time uninterrupted! We can tell he was truly enjoying the whole conversation. Thank you for this Lex!
Snark gets you nowhere but a few comment likes. Let’s hear your gripes and points against what he said that you disagree with. Would love to hear it, truthfully
So its great that Lex let's Yuval talk uninterrupted but not when it's Netanyahu
@@Nick-Salvhe said plants are intelligent.
@@user-ti5rb1mx5x in their own capacity, I’d agree. The right word to use here may not be “intelligence” as we understand our own or even that of an animal’s or insect’s … but there’s something there. He also likened them to an “alien intelligence,” admitting that neither he nor we have quite understood much about plants just yet today. But if you’re curious and can have an open mind, go read a little of Peter Wohlleben or Stefano Mancuso or some Michael Pollan, all of whom have covered plant “intelligence” or whatever you’d like to call it. We’ve only scratched the surface on what we know about plants… they’re not just for smoking, bud!
@@JFK762that’s how libs roll. Humanist hell holes are brilliant, and sensibility is “hate”. I am not religious, but it is exactly as described in the Bible
Over the last past months i had the most intense mental shift of consciousness. I was withdrawn and paranoid towards the whole of society and this is completely changing. I want to thank Lex and every other smart and loving person for making this possible.
Bro that's just mental illness
far out, bro. that's great to hear. what was the primary cause of your mental shift? what would you recommend for others?
Super! Viva Lex- and you, and us all.
I wouldn't count Yuval as one of those loving human beings. He wants to do away with our biological humanity and destroy free will. He thinks he is smarter than God and can create his own new intelligent design, although his model would be devoid of free will and subject to constant surveillance. This guy is full of nonsense.
@@chuckleezodiac24great to hear, congratulations
Absolutely captivated by this profound dialogue between Yuval Noah Harari and Lex Fridman! Yuval's illumination on truth, religion, and the intertwining of humanity, technology, and intelligence is awe-inspiring. Embracing the importance of clarity in these realms is paramount. As he fearlessly navigates the complexities, it becomes evident that fostering intelligence is key to shaping our world. Yuval's courage echoes the sentiments of creating a future where both intelligent beings and feeling organisms coexist harmoniously. Truly inspiring for a young philosopher like me. Looking forward to the rest of this enlightening conversation!
You're not philosopher. You're a useful fool.
Yuval Noah Harari stated “We are also exporting a lot of weapons and especially surveillance systems, sometimes to unsavory regimes.
Can you please comment more on what specific type of equipment you are talking about, and how it is being used?
I find my favorite thing is his ability to communicate so clearly. He takes stands and perspectives I don't necessarily agree with, but he seems to do it with a still open mind and very lucid language. Great listen!

@@aspartamekillsyaknow9019 how come all the negative commenters here like you write the most retarded shit with no explanations or arguments?
Yes, clear communication of a strange reasoning: Sorry, Yuval, your are not right. Life IS a story, a personal one. Your life is no exception and you speak about your story. Human life is so much more than reacting. BTW the human life is very different from that of animals also because we have a personal (hi)stories. When our life is not aligned with the biblical stories, it does not cause their falsity. Do not be afraid of death - the meeting with God your Creator is still there ahead. I would like to talk to you so much in detail and I think I could persuade you about Deity in a single talk. God does not hate anyone.
This is seriously one of the best episodes I’ve heard so far and so contemporary!

@@ageresequituresse
Unfortunately I know more about Harari than I want.
Fascinating. I love this discussion. Especially the discussion about the kabal and the analysis of the political situation in Israel.
If he is a historian and ...philosopher, then I am an astronaut even though I have not even been on a plane...
Can you explain what you mean? Is the problem, that he didn't study philosophy?
@@user-km5ug7js3y I will mention it briefly. First for its historical deficiency and then for its philosophical deficiency.
1. He states in his book Sapiens: "Why did the Scientific Revolution begin in the middle of the second millennium AD and not two centuries earlier or later? We don't know." (Sapiens, page 253). Answer: Of course we know. Because the right conditions were there. You can't build a rocket if you haven't built an airplane first. Today e.g. we can't suddenly colonize the planet Jupiter. We must first take other smaller steps which are necessary to achieve such a big goal.
2. In the same book, the author who, in the opinion of many critics, is "a revolution and a charming record of the history of humanity in a unique way, lucidity, humor and mood for reflection", after dozens of pages of ideologies, creeds, banal regurgitated dogmas but and many unanswered questions, chooses to highlight, a trivial - in fact for the modern scientific community obsolete - question, about which dozens of new books have been presented, which in general overturn the image we had regarding the phenomenon of homosexuality in ancient Greece. You will search in vain in the pages of this book for even a small reference to the unparalleled achievements of classical antiquity. Not once - and I challenge anyone to disprove me - is the word "philosophy" mentioned.
I end with a reference to his cynicism: For Harari, Syria or Iraq are simply geostrategic constructions, without particular cultural and historical significance, national entities that emerged from the conflict of interests, whose peoples were used either by Saddam Hussein either by Asad respectively (Sapiens, page 374). But, on the contrary, in reality both of these countries - and this is impossible for a historical scientist to ignore - are cases of nations with centuries of history, important culture, achievements in many fields, multicultural character, (in the sense of cosmopolitanism and not massification and internationalism).
I could write another book listing the author's shortcomings.
You appear to be a zero.. just below dim.
Jew.
I was just trying to read something without my glasses, and the letters were blurry, but I could still read, even though I couldn't really see some of the letters. I wonder if this ability is dependent on this story mechanism that Yuval is talking about. I realize that this scenario is quite different, but I'm thinking, I see these images; they have some similarties to "what I expect" to see; and so I'm able to read, despite lacking sufficient information from the image alone. This "what I expect" seems kind of like Yuval's "story".
"Intelligence also tends to be self-destructive", "Intelligence is definitely not something directed towards amplifying happiness", "Intelligence, in any way, its a bit overvalued"👏👏He has such a depth to his perspective on intelligence. Some of the intelligent people I've met surprisingly lack self-awareness and have an overall hollowness to them. Which is so contradictory....
there's no positive correlation between intelligence and happiness
'For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.' Ecclesiastes 1:18
Interesting can you say deep about that
Sadly, what he means by intelligence is the general capacity to reason, not a special threshold on the IQ scale. So his statements don’t really support your unfair downplay of people with high intelligence 😢
@superb444 I would imagine that the happiness to intelligence ratio is like a bell curve. "Ignorance is bliss" after all. I've met some very highly intelligent people who are so completely oblivious to the world around them outside of their own interests that one could argue that they are just as ignorant as someone who has a lower IQ.
Top interview!!! I loved the answers, listening at them many many times. And I loved the questions, the way you put them. Great
Thank you again for a very interesting talk!
One of your best so far.
4:40 Prof Harari: “to have consciousness without any intelligence is impossible”
Me: “…hold my beer”
😂😂😂
It even takes massive intelligence to act stupidly, even a damaged brain is marvel of biology
Hysterical. Thank you.

" If we can not listen and pay attention to our own breath for more than 5 seconds how do we pretend to understand more complex concepts " 👏👏👏
Still the same man cannot breathe while he's talking. He has no idea how to talk and breathe. So whole interview is waste of time.
Focusing on one's breath can be boring. Complex concepts are more interesting and fun, therefore worth focusing on for hours to enjoy the final understanding and accomplishment.

hi @lexfridman . thanks for this incredible conversations you have in this channel.
about the danger and emotive manipulation AI could apply to "control" us with "stories" and "fiction": i was thinking about narcisists, which could be a kind of "model" to study what an AI could be or do: no emotions only stories on stories on fictions to achieve a cold (im?)personal achievment. We as human are still far from high general and common level of counsciousness and we actually kind of are unaware of narcisism in society, we are full of narcisists in our daily life and many of them are admired and accepted as strong person... the concept of emotions is becoming less and less important and seen as a mere shadow of some sort of weakness to use ... AI could be the final narcisist? are narcisist in the end really counscious being? Narcisist doesn't suffer...Are we sure that those leaders we follow (good or bad) are really mostly all thruthful and not just narcisists who just (by chance) happen to lead specific ideology?? That brings that thing that IDEAS are using us to spread through the easiest and more functional channels: narcisists...
😊😊😊😊 😊
The fact that two-thirds plus of the 'western world' are on anti-depressants which are known to reduce empathy down to zilch in such unfortunate folk does not help. Hence there is a distinct lacking of emotion guidance in our society, spawning psychopaths with narcissistic traits by the hundreds of thousands, millions even? 😔
Excellent approach Harari has regarding confirmation bias. I have a similar approach and he's right. You learn much more when you approach life and a problem the way he explains. And it's a better approach to discover and learn ways on how to deal with life.
Maybe next Lex could talk to Klaus Schwab and let him explain how he's just a very misunderstood guy trying to make the world a better place 🤣
Typical sheep comment. Didn’t listen to the podcast and jumped to judge without context. GTFOH.
Exactly 😂 Why Lex just lets these people on to talk like they’re completely right without pushing back on anything they say, I don’t know, but it’s almost like he is one of them 🤷🏻♂️ hopefully one day we see someone with balls who can get these people on and hold a fire under their feet.

Bravo Lex. You did what so many couldn’t as you try to remove your ego from the interview. May many of your podcaster and celebrities my friends learn from you. This was a beautiful 3 hours of honest chat. Worth anyone’s time
Nice summary 😊
Love your podcast and how you are having different discussions about subjects. It is so valuable to hear and try to understand all points of view.

Thank you both for this wonderful conversation. I really like listening to Yuval because he has something to say, to explain, and I like him a lot because he knows how to say that he doesn't know. I've already listened to this podcast twice and I think I will again. I don't speak English, but I use google translation to help me. Lex, you act very seriously and responsibly

Made with HARPA AI
I was thinking the other day, life is suffering. And after listening to several of Lex's discussions, I noticed a theme of wanting to hang on to some suffering. Like, if we were to eliminate suffering, what would happen? I'm pretty sure we would die very soon after that. Like, most people only go to work because they wish to avoid the suffering of poverty. Why not just stop working? Because then you'll run out of money. Who cares? Why do you need money? To buy food and pay rent. Why do you need those things? To survive. Why do you need to survive? Well, that's sort of like a rewording of "What's the meaning of life?", right?
It seems to me, we are simply compelled to survive. Could we just quit trying to survive? Is it directly linked to suffering? Well, I think most people would feel fear if they really considered stopping trying to survive. It's sort of the same thing as suicide. Although I guess the phrase "stopping trying to survive" elicits a more peaceful death than "committing suicide".
But anyway, yeah, I think it's not really that you think you need to survive, but you're driven to survive by the fear of the pains that you would experience if you stopped trying to survive. And you've probably experienced some of these pains. The pain of the cold. The pain of sitting on a hard concrete surface. The pain of a sunburn. The pain of hunger. So if you eliminated all of those sufferings, what would you do?
I think most people would do something fun, or something they have wanted to do, but didn't because of their fears. Why would you stop and go eat? You might say "so that I can keep having fun"; but then you're really just serving a fear again, to prevent a suffering. The suffering of that fun ending.
So it seems like suffering is fundamental to intelligence, if the agent is to survive.
But what about a robot that is simply programmed to survive? Maybe it's programmed with some information about things that can lead to its destruction, as well as some algorithms for learning about other things that can lead to its destruction, and other algorithms to survive. Couldn't it be that it does all that activity and feels nothing? No fear or anxiety or pain?
And if so, couldn't we remove the pain part of our experience, and only have the intelligent survival?
What would such an intelligent survival look like? Would you eat candy? You are intelligent, so you know that candy is going to destroy your teeth, and make you fat; and that would decrease your ability to survive; so you would not want to eat the candy. But the candy is pleasurable; so now you have a problem. How do you reconcile it? Well, it seems that the normal human behavior is to eat the candy; so apparently that is more valued in the human nature program, than survival.
Great questions. I think removing the suffering would look a lot more like living with intention and making conscious choices. Perhaps like the choice to grow one's own food instead of slaving away at a desk to work for money, etc.
Choosing not to engage in fighting or victimhood, etc.
Of course, for all that to really add up to less suffering, it would require more people to be on board with that agenda. It's easy to say these things and much harder to execute when we're in a (completely man-made) economic depression.
But hey, it's still worth doing a little part to try and teach future generations, and help ourselves.
Nobody reads more than 3 raws....
I love to listen to people I don't agree with. I want to hear their arguments and let them challenge my believes. With that said - Yuval is an amazing guest. Thank you very much Lex. Much love to all!

U need to do more research on him then because he BSd his way through this.
Here’s his mentor Klaus Schwab

Simply, just BRAVO. Awesome talk, enjoyed every moment of it 👏 I wish I could not just give one, but a thousand of likes
The idea that struck me most:
- human life is dependent on stories
- the main danger of AI is us losing control
- we need to keep reinventing ourselves, because the future is more uncertain than ever
You naive fool. How long until your government 'accidentally' loses control over AI? Who are you going to put in jail when the AI starts making decisions on your life? Are you going to report the AI to the authorities? What are the authorities going to do then? Obviously they have 'lost control'. How convenient.
Yuvals ability to make complex things into bite sized meals for the masses is why he is so succefull. What a great speaker and what a great conversation, thank you lex!

From my own interest being completely ignorant and confused about how the world operates, I wish they addressed the steel man version of conspiracy theory instead of the straw one. E.g. is it telling that they didn't even mention the WEF or whatever Harari's role is within it?
Maybe start at your own ignorance not someones role somewhere
Yuval is no better or above anyone else on the planet. He’s his own person, but wants everyone to ultimately live under what he feels is correct. Yet by his own standard we’re all just determined to be a certain way from our nature. So who is he to say anyone else is wrong for believing in something he doesn’t? Leave the rest of the world alone, and create your own space to thrive in if you think we’re all determined to be a certain way. There comes a point where you can’t just blame everyone else for your own issues, when you’re the one who can choose to “free” yourself in the end.

his description of the writing process is almost exactly the way I paint
Yuval makes great points and makes a person think. I do believe that he ultimately wants us to live as hunter/gatherers and the patriarchy that it would entail
Yuvals book "Sapiens" rekindled my interests in reading. Glad lex finally got to interview him.

Oh, I hope you heard yval talking about "useless eaters" and how "we" will be treating them in the near future.
Very eye-opening.
I've seen a number of edits of Yuval's speaking engagements at the WEF and other events in "conspiratorial" content here on TH-cam. With that being my first and only information set on the author, I was ready to categorize him as "one who hates humanity". After watching this interview I was left with a completely opposite conclusion! Ironically Lex and Yuval speak on the topic of conspiracy and the dangers of the false information that now lives in ones mind. I will be consuming more of Yuvals work, but straight from the source himself this time. I truly loved so much of what he expressed in this interview. And as always Lex... Another great episode from my favorite podcast and host!
Thank you @lexfridman and @yuvalnoahharari for this thoughtful and enlightening discussion- thank you for sharing this information, knowledge, and wisdom - it will help people. Seek the truth.
Q. Where do the real conversations take place?
A. WEF Forum...
an authoritarian regime can still have different voices... the power of stories in peoples' minds maximizing suffering while simultaneously suppressing stories that are counter to WEF agenda.
Yuval, in spite of suffering, the caged bird can choose to sing or not...
I was waiting for this conversation after the Netanjahu piece. Thank you, keep doing what you do. Both of you.
Why doesn't Yuval go on an interview with Jordan Peterson. Oh wait... Then his ideas would be exposed for the foolishness they are.

@@ThePhil939He will never elaborate , at best he will throw some incoherent ramblings and curse you that's the internet conversations for you.
@@ThePhil939Yuval is a great thinker and I share his disdain for our current government but on the apartheid question his answers were driven by his left ideology and he seems to say that Israelis arabs have less rights than the jews and it is simply wrong … so while he is passionating to listen to , he failed to be accurate and correct on the only subject I know as good as him …. When i get fined by a policewoman wearing a hijab and our past president was sent to jail by an arabic judge I don’t get how anyone can justify this apartheid word for the state of israel .

I really appreciated this talk. I’m sure it would be interesting to talk with Yuval Harari about the influence of money and in particular central bank control on human culture.
I am very much looking forward to a conversation between the Dutch philosopher Bernardo Kastrup and Lex Fridman.
Wouldn’t that be refreshing…
Great talk!
I agree. I've never seen Bernardo being on a podcast in person though. He's always doing the video call thing. I hope he would make an exception for Lex.
Same, I just made an episode with him myself. He’s great.
I agree with the premise, Ai can't be presented as a real human. It's one thing that makes sense and doesn't stop progress.
Great interview. Thanks Lex !
Great conversation, I particularly liked the discussion on consciousness and the dangers of charismatic storytellers.
Just had a random thought when Yuval was talking about plants intelligence and consciousness… there was a study published in 2011 in Frontiers in Human Neurosciences, Dr Tristan Bekinschtein found patients in vegetative coma states showed signs of brain activity in response to linguistic stimuli. Could you say that these patients still had consciousness, despite not having the means to express it? If so, could that mean that consciousness is an ability to be aware of external forces and could cellular life and plant cells fall in this category? Their awareness is still considered very rudimentary, but cells do sense in a chemical way light, heat, foreign cells, pH condition in liquids and other states of matter that can be good or bad for their survival. Could consciousness exist on a spectrum at very minimal states such as in plant life or even AI? Does the entity have to be biologically based and possess subjective experiences, emotion, and the kind of introspective awareness that humans have, to be deemed having consciousness?
I love Yuval's response to Lex saying that Yuval doesn't think Hitler is an impressive person: ''Did I say that?'' with that facial expression. So good. Brings me joy. 51:32
Yuval’s technofascist character is not hidden 😅
He reminds me Sheldon Cooper
@@DaniloCarretta he reminds me of Joseph Goebbels
No way Lex hinted at watching Michael Reeves when talking about taking inspiration for having robots feel pain 😂
There's a huge irony in Harari being such a convincing storyteller. Does he possess a sufficient nucleus of wisdom equivalent to his current status as a darling of the educated, managerial elites who feel it is incumbent on them to take control of our human destiny? I fear not.
I agree.
It is fascinating. He is so well received by lex’s audience, but come on, his techno utopia is a humanist hell scape. The educated are so foolish.
he is like Malcolm Gladwell, great storyteller imprecise and sloppy thinker.
Then help make the wisdom sufficent. What are his gravest errors or incomplete thoughts?
@@SerenityReceiver check his messaging on the "useless eaters",who are ppl whose jobs no longer exist. And his solution for keeping the governments safe from them is to keep them "nutered" via on psychotropics , and immersed reality video games...until the population is naturally reduced.
This creature is an ANTI humanist. I am SHOCKED Lex asked NO reveling questions. Makes me wonder he has not been working by himself here...perhaps with the WEF,whose talking head is this childless/no-concern-for-humans humanoid who,in addition to this,considers himself a god-like being.
Research him!
This was a very thought-provoking video. Yuval should have a Q & A blog or radio show.
Harari is very motivated. He’s trying hard to be wise. Unfortunately he’s very young and naïve still. I’m looking forward to seeing if he ever achieves the wisdom he fancies.
Yuval is so lost in so many ways that I don't even know where to begin. I feel a lot of compassion for people who are this lost.
I've been waiting for this chat literally for years.
Lex, this was your opportunity to be a true Hero and eliminate this fascist.
You could have laid him down to sleep and save the world.
