Could human civilization eventually spread across the whole Milky Way galaxy? Could we move beyond our small, blue planet to establish colonies in the multitude of star systems out there? These questions are pretty daunting, but their (theoretical) answers were actually put forth decades ago. Roey Tzezana describes the conceptual von Neumann machine.
Lesson by Roey Tzezana, animation by Eoin Duffy.
Damn, this is very nicely animated.
Cheers :)
:D
Eoin is just amazingly talented, and fun to work with :)
Thank you for the work you do! Your contribution to online education is much appreciated.
and I kept wondering why aliens don't abduct us...
A Von Neuman machine gone out of control would be a great video game plot.
They are called Reaper ... (Mass effect).
In Saberhagen's Berserer series, von Neumann machines are called "Berserker" and don't like organic life forms
Reapers aren't really Von Neuman machines gone out of control though, because humans did not create them and while they do replicate by plundering resources they do so in an orchestrated and orderly fashion :)
Mark Arandjus
A von Neumann machine doesn't need to be created by humans, just by any race.
I'm not really sure about the Reapers though (it's been a long time since i played the series), but weren't they also created by an initial race in the beginning, before this whole cycle thing between machines and sentient life started ?
Grey Goo is an RTS based on that scenario
Musicsage I know of Grey Goo, and yeah that's also self replicating robots, but that's more like the Replicators from Star Gate or The Borg. What I had in mind was a sort of system of machines that expands way too fast and strips planets dry all the while thinking this helps humanity.
There is a sci-fi book trilogy called "We are Legion, We are Bob" told from the perspective of a Von Neuman probe as it goes about its mission. It's a very good read and I would recommend it to anyone who likes "hard" sci-fi.
If this is theoretically possible why not make the machines terraform the planets for human survival instead of just harvesting material? Then we would be able to send hundreds if not thousands of human in stasis over centuries. Then the self-replicating machines can be turned off or destroyed once a planet has become fully terraformed. This seems like a much better way to spread human civilisation.
Now you're thinking.
You should design some Von Neumann Machines to accomplish that goal. Just make sure they aren't programmed to terraform living worlds, only dead ones.
Its better to upload our mind to galactic wide quantum entanglement networks. We don't really eat or drink and the Von Neumann machines can partially be servers.
I don't like any of these digital posthuman ideas. There's no point to spreading civilisation if we lose our humanity
I agree, but most of these ideas are impractical anyway. For instance, there's many reasons to think that "uploading our minds" wouldn't work. I am a fan of biological enhancement though. It'd be great
Humanity is overrated. The only special thing about us is our awareness. If machines can be made aware then what's the point of organic life.
Put a free U2 album on those machines. See how fast aliens come to destroy us
That's a clever one!
47chromeAKs Good one. 😂
What's wrong with U2?
katten elvis Nothing is wrong with U2. It's just that Apple forced their users to download U2:s new album.
Charlie Clumsy
ohhhh
yeah thats probably the most horrible, cruel and efficient mass destruction weapon in the entire univers
Good point
Bit like us...
Exactly
More like a virus.
its not only for humans, another (theorical) civilization could build it. imagine getting destroyed by thousands of these machines along with your planet. its a bomb that keeps rebuilding itself each time bigger
maybe dna is a von Neumann machine. [mind blown]
The Functions are Quite similar...
That's exactly what he said in the end.
I didn't hear that. at what timestamp?
"Maybe they are already there"
I dont think he was implying that earthlings are Von Neumann machines...
This sounds like something that nobody should invent.
Wait a fucking minute! Wouldn't it make us the bad guy like in Independence Day?
Michael McNamara Did you ever think we were the good guys?
Did you ever think that life isn't about right or wrong, but shades of grey?
Life is about fifty shades of grey.
this comment section went so many ways.
RELEASSSSEEE MEEEEE!
Desperately trying to focus on the voice but _the animation is just so amazing_
For real, props for that, whoever did this
i thought the same thing it's really cool.. The name of the guy is in the description btw :)
what if WE were the machines sent to earth to populate it and expand further
We can be a huge Reality Show for aliens !
Baashaal Baashaal the alien that created us could be idiots too
My comment has the same theory but A LOT more explanation. If you'd like to find and read it...Posted it before this one too...
The Truman show
the ancient alien guy on history channel once mentioned the same idea. that even if aliens find out where we are. they wouldn't eradicate us with godlike technology. because all life forms in the universe have the same origin and the same purpose-to spread across the universe.
I feel sorry for the first aliens we discover. It's only a matter of time before we screw up their planet.
Humans will ghettoize the universe
Assuming they are less advanced than us, if not, the sorriness can be dedicated to us and the rapeful annihilation they would give us for fucking around in their planet :v
+akenterprises That's so pessimistic, I love it.
with the number of planets in our galaxy alone, its doubtful we would have to share a planet with another intelligent life form . thats why movies made about us being invaded and taken over are bullshit. its just proof that the human ego only blinds us.
I know right I really dislike this anti human sentiment. There are infinitely more planets than humans. We are much rarer. If aliens found us they would most probably study us. Not just nuke us to steal sh*t. Give me strength God.
It's pronounced "Von *Noy*mann". It's German, and the 'eu' makes an 'oi' sound. Like Reuters or Freud.
Nobody cares!

I care.... i mentioned it before I saw this statement!!!
I couldn't watch this any longer without giving the animators the props they deserve, the animations are beautiful, the narrator is killing it too.
man this music is amazing !
The background music is really good!
Oh my God ! Such great animation, beautiful transitions & visuals!! This is by far the best animated video on internet I've ever watched. Very, very well done.
the animation is incredible
thank you Eoin Duffy
Simply most beautifully animated TED video. Eoin you're amazing 😃
I hope humanity gets the chance to visit other stars
Edit: I meant other solar systems
It won't, since stars are thousands of degrees hot.
Stars, planets, galaxies, make a pick. We can't get anywhere near stars, lol.
technically other planets. if you get onto a star. you get burnt to death
Some stars are cold enough you can touch them.
many stars have planets orbiting them, making them a solar system. there was practically no point in editing the comment.
This video is so aesthetic.
Animations are beautiful.
Keep up the good work Eoin Duffy!
So, a Von Neumann machine is basically a continuous weapon of mass destruction on a galactic scale. Got it.
yup. unless we can stop them multiplying.
sounds like humans to me
Seams like a space virus to me. I'm not going to be held responsible for that, uh uh.
since the nazie era, your inaction is enough to condemn and judge you unless you have means to get the judge hypocrisy going your way.
Just AGuy
Uhh...that's just not the case since the nazi era, but even earlier and has nothing to do with hypocrisy.
You know, when you see a dying man out on the street, your duty as a citizen is to help this guy out by calling the ambulance.
In this case, i don't think that any Alien cares about human history L0l
Leon so you already knew it then.
It's more about spreading life. The probe is a carrier.
This video is just trying to explain the basics, so it sounds more sinister than it is.
The reality is Earth's time is limited, and even if we have millions of years left, we should plan ahead for the worst.
If we can put life on another planet, and make sure that those robots continue to try doing this, then life can spread. The new life forms may not have the ability to make another probe, so it's important that the probes we make be able to do this, otherwise life could end with the planets we seed with life.
(Obviously still dangerous)
Humans are viruses themselves. If they launch viruses into space, the universe is doomed! Humans never learn from history, and keeps repeating it. The Aztecs, Incans, and the Mayans learned it the hard way.
Biological life is probably the von Neumann machine.
What's a von Neumann machine? It's a Slylandro Probe.

Not going to helps. It's less of technological / physical issue, but more of a funding problem.
It actually is. This way more talented, smart people will become physicians. And the more we got of those,the higher are the chances of finding new discoveries and stuff that will help with making the human civilization a galactic empire. Or at least use our solar system.
Where was this video when I needed it the most!!! Great timing ted-ed great timing!
Amazing animation quality, good work!
We should fix our planet first before dreaming to go anywhere else. Remember the humans in Avatar? I don't want our Species to be remembered like them!
Spreading across the galaxy is fixing the problem actually
By gathering resources from outside the Earth, the limits of producing
necessary supplies (rare minerals, energy, technological advancements,
etc) would increase and would in turn give aid to more people.
I would support mining the moon for resources. I also see no problem in building a base in it to do experiments that would otherwise be dangerous on Earth.
Hjori, there's two big things that you're not understanding. Colonizing other planets would not solve the issue of resources. Why? Because humans would never stop reproducing. The population will continue to grow, no matter how many people you send elsewhere. This will result in resource deficiency on Earth and on other planets (watch the original Total Recall movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger for a good example). Secondly, colonizing the moon (or worse yet, conducting experiments that are "too dangerous [oh God...] to conduct on Earth") would result in the destruction of our moon, which would end most life on Earth. Watch The Time Machine movie based on H.G. Wells' book for an example of that. It's not so simple as flying to another celestial being and living happily ever after.
the planets not broken, it'll exist until the sun swallows it up before it dies.
We don't have resources deficiency problem! There are plenty resources on this planet for generations to come!
I dunno how old are you but I guess you're much younger than me, I like your intelligence and thought. Keep it up, be always curious!
If we wait for that, then we'll never go anywhere; in fact, human beings would never have spread beyond Africa, if they had had that mindset way back then. The old argument, "We shouldn't do X until problem Y is solved" (going to other worlds before the problems of this world are solved, in this case) also ignores the fact that money from one program is never switched to another.
it saddens me that its very possible that human civilization collapses before doing any of that . and it saddens me even greater as a middle eastern that the middle east could be the reason
Every frame of this video can be used as an aesthetic wallpaper. That’s how good it is.
Just wanted to say that the animation in the video is gorgeous, carry on...
I love how the narrator goes from- clearly there are none, to - maybe they're already here :D
Why was Neumann's name pronounced "Newman" in this video? Did he use an idiosyncratic pronunciation?
All i can say is that Herr Neumann was a citizen of former Austria- Hungary, born in Budapest, but he moved to the USA and also dropped his Hungarian name, but also replaced his austrian name "Johann" with "John". He propably changed also the pronounciation of his name, like many germans and austrians who moved to US did.
So nowadays you would call him "us- american citizen of magyarian ethnicity and former austria-hungarian nationality".
Oh god, i think i don't like overwhelming-political-correctness...
RobinsonCrouse24 I don't think this is true in von Neumann's case, though if you have information to the contrary I would be glad to hear it. But in recorded interviews with him I have heard the interviewers use the Hungarian pronunciation.
+Thomas R. Jackson
he adapted his name, whereever he was living, so in hungary it was Janosz, during his time in Germany it was Johann, and later in the US it was John. Similar with his last name, with the exception, that he kept the Germanized "von Neumann"-Form in the US. and, no, he wasn't an us- american citizen of magyarian ethnicity, but Martian ;-) (Google it, if you don't get it).
Frank Schneider adapting first names is pretty common. Those tend to be informal. I answer to Tom. Folks often accept abbreviated names. Last names are changed too, especially by immigrants to the US during the Ellis Island period, or just to hide ethnicity in a culture of discrimination, or to distance one's self from one's past. But in general, folks tend to maintain the more formal last name. Now Americans do butcher names and I have heard people refer to Neumann as "Newman" before, but I have generally assumed it was out of ignorance. I have never seen any evidence that Neumann promoted or encouraged a change in the pronunciation of his last name. I don't know why he would have, as he was a well known academic, with no particular reason to hide his past or ethnicity. And I know that he went by his native pronunciation in at least some public events.
It just seemed like a strange mistake to make in the video, even disrespectful in his day and age. But perhaps I am mistaken and Neumann took to introducing himself as Newman, and preferred the term. I would like to give the makers of the video he benefit of the doubt. If it was an honest mistake, unfortunate, but lesson learned, and a bird apology due perhaps. Or if I am wrong, I would like to see some evidence to that effect.
Perhaps another time we can see a video about Euler's Day off.
It's the same story with all German/Austrian names. Tons of German/Austrian names are always mispronounced, like Bach, Mozart, Freud, etc. It's quite silly getting upset over Neumann.
I really enjoyed the animation in this! :)
now you are just playing my mind.............this is amazing
What if WE are Von Newman machines and don't know it
trippy stuff
thats what I kept thinking throughout this video. what if we are it? what if a signal will be sent to us shortly to congratulate us and explain our whole purpose - which is to keep going until we make a Von Neumann machine and to put DNA/RNA inside it and shoot it off towards wherever the signal tells us to
So you're basically saying there is a creator, and that we've been placed here for the specific reasons mentioned in the video. This not really that far off from what some religions say. Take this translated verse [2:30] from the Quran for example:
"when your Lord said to the angels “Lo! I am about to place a vicegerent on earth,” they said: “Will You place on it one who will spread mischief and shed blood while we celebrate Your glory and extol Your holiness?” He said: “Surely I know what you do not know."
Vicegerent here meaning a person exercising delegated power on behalf of a sovereign or ruler.
Atheists have no problem delving into possibilities which directly imply that we have a creator, like Richard Dawkins saying he thinks it's possible that aliens seeded life on earth when he was faced with a question about the complexity of DNA.
This frustrates me because while these ideas are built on mere speculation, Islam/the Quran has the support of many scientific miracles/facts revealed through an illiterate man in the deserts of Arabia 1400 years ago (by Allah) way before modern science was able to discover them.
In addition to that, to me at least, it's actually much more liberating - the idea of one all-mighty creator and ruler of the entire universe who is neither begets nor is begotten. [27:59]translation: "Is Allah not far better than anything to which men [falsely] ascribe a share in His divinity?".
The graphics Tho.
The animation was just amazing
Wow. This animation is just AMAZING.
Reminds me of the Gems from Steven Universe
the gems are the machines, the diamonds send them
yeah
ExperienceWildWolfe I hate Steven universe, it's so bullshit
The Von Neumann machine looks a lot like peridot's diamond line from Steven Universe.
I can't help but feel as though that's what those crystal gems are, and Stephen, himself, is a cyborg of sorts. My guess for what their purpose is is as follows: "1: find an intelligent civilization, 2: gauge its technical prowess, 3: If it's high enough, go back to step 1; if not, then scan their culture, and balance sameness with otherness to seem both friendly and alien, 4: Protect that civilization unless it comes at a fatal cost to another; in the event of a paradox, resolve in a way that both civilizations can walk away from it."
I might be wrong, but I'm glad that not EVERYONE thinks it's preposterous.
Stargate replicators anyone?
I was just thinking the same :)
one of the best motion graphics movies i've seen i a while! great!
I swear I love yall channel its like little snacks for the brain
Newman? Practically no one pronounces it like that...
It is clearly "Noy-man."
This's the first place I've heard the term, how IS it pronounced? I say it Von Noo-man. Is that wrong?
It's us, we are the self-replicating machines.
So you're basically saying there is a creator, and that we've been placed here for the specific reasons mentioned in the video. This not really that far off from what some religions say. Take this translated verse [2:30] from the Quran for example:
"when your Lord said to the angels “Lo! I am about to place a vicegerent on earth,” they said: “Will You place on it one who will spread mischief and shed blood while we celebrate Your glory and extol Your holiness?” He said: “Surely I know what you do not know."

Beautifully smooth animation
I love the animation style in this one.
MORE human civilization?! There goes the universe! We all know just how great the results are on THIS planet
yup
Spaceballs?
Maybe that's the reason why we don't have any other neighbors in our universe
WillWilsonII What's the point of protecting the universe if there's not gonna be anyone in it? Sure, the earth would have a better environment if it did away with all of us but what's the point of having a planet with a perfect environment if no one is going to inhabit it?
maybe we will change.... maybe your right and we will destroy/ kill everything we find XD
With self replication comes evolution and unpredictability. We might potentially be creating an entirely new kind of life. They might, instead of finding an intelligent alien civilisation, become one.
I wouldn't spend a lot of time worrying about it.
The animation is something I would do. Nicely done!
That art and animation is fantastic.
if we theoretically found a way to cherry pick what planets would be drained of resources, it may be a possible job/career, and we use the resources of let's say five planets to terraform one a quarter way, this would work extremely successfully, in what I can imagine at least.
I guess you mean Neumann János. He was Hungarian. Btw. the name is of German origin, so it should be pronounced as in German: [naa-y-maan].
the best graphics from ted ed I've ever seen :D
One of my favorite videos.
isnt this how the geth got started from mass effect
Isn't this how the Reapers started in Mass Effect
geth
No and no
So basically people are thinking about creating army of robots which will rip other planets of their resources and take over the whole universe. Damn. We are the villains in this movie.
DUDE THIS IS INSTANTLY MY FAVORITE VIDEO
the animation and colors are very pretty
teriific animations... dayummm
The real question is, what would be the benefit to us? How would we be better off knowing that millions of light years away, there are machines replicating themselves on planet that we'll never visit? And even if we seed the planets with humanoid clones of ourselves (Raelism?), what would be the profit to the humans still on earth? We wouldn't gain any resources or knowledge or experiences. We wouldn't even be able to spread out to deal with overpopulation, because we'd be creating new populations. What we really need is some kind of faster-than-light travel, like artificial wormholes or something.
You miss the point. There is no "reason" to do this because there is NO PROFIT to be gained. Nothing this current civilization does is done without profit, beyond wasted half-hearted efforts like a few solar panels tossed into the desert in the name of environmentalism, or what NASA has become. You expect massive corporations to come together and spend decades and trillions of dollars of research and development to develop a system of machines that will bring not a dime back to Earth? It will never happen.
Yonkage Then we'll die. End of story. Luckily there are some of us who dream of bigger things than bags of gold.
welles
Unfortunately, none of those people are in charge of anything beyond their own two hands. And it's extremely unlikely any one person will ever meaningfully impact the world. Even world leaders are largely powerless figureheads.
Shawn Ravenfire Got to agree with you on that
A 'backup' to our species? LOL :-D
The animation is amazing.
Damn guys! Animation is so amazing
Nnnnnnnooooope. I don't want these things in my galaxy.
just need one of them to come down and get rid of Trump and HRC
awsome video! :)
The narration by Addison Anderson is really good, awesome animation by Eoin.
Guys, could you please tell your narrator how to pronounce 'Neumann'?
Brian McInnis noy-man
It will be so funny if those machines went for Earth and take our own resources as well lmao karma
Professor Farnsworth theyll find nothing. They wont be able to come in in the first place, trump's wall will keep the illegal aliens out.
it would be obvious to program the A.I. to not do that, but maybe not tho XD
This has got to one of the best animation styles ever.
nice animation, Eoin Duffy right there
It's a shame how people can think of these stupid ideas while easily dismissing the existence of God which is way way more likely (some protoshit turning into an ultra-gorgeous, ultra-intelligent human being, seriously???).
Two things: One, that "photoshit" you mention had 3.5 billion years to work with. Two, while it is more likely than not for a God to have created us, it's far MORE likely that he has a whole civilization to take advice from; it's probabilistic math.
TED talks are getting awfully disappointing. A machine is not a human being. It is difficult enough to know what is meant by the word "culture" when we are talking about people in the ordinary sense. Add a machine into the mix, and the word ceases to make sense.
+GIM
Why ?
The question that is the subject of this video clip is an interesting one. I realize that in less than five minutes, the answer is not going to be profound. In this case, I found it trivial. Those are hard words, "human, civilization." Just the question of whether it is reasonable to apply "human" to a machine is not even asked. But that could be a whole video in itself.
Were I to do such a video, I think I would recast the question. What is meant by the spread of human civilization? If we limit this to mean "sending human artifacts throughout the Galaxy," then we have an answer that could be interesting, even with the time constraints of this video.
There are other possibilities, of course. What I mean to say, is that the question, however interesting, must be cast so that an interesting answer can be given with the necessary constraints of time.
I hope I am getting my meaning across. As I read what I write, I think of so much more that I could say. But there are constraints in the comments, as well.
GIM
A machine will never be human, but it could be intelligent and therefore have culture.
At this point, we get into more interesting questions. First of all, there is the question of what intelligence is, and the extent to which it is - or has to be - connected with an independent consciousness. If neither consciousness nor independence is demanded, then computers are, in some respect, intelligent, and more intelligent than human beings. But, in practice, consciousness is demanded, or at least assumed.
Then there is the question of what constitutes culture. Minimally defined, it is the ability to make artifacts. Once you begin to include things like standards of beauty, discussion and the search for knowledge, the development of society, and so on, then the question gets complicated.
Maybe there will be machines that would properly be recognized as intelligent and capable of culture, in some sense of that word. I am skeptical, but I have read some good science fiction with that theme.
Frank Schneider There are several thing that make me hesitant to agree with everything that you say. Not all that long ago, those researchers who had been arguing that language is a part of evolution came out as a group and said that they had come to the conclusion that they were wrong, and not only that, but that we still know almost nothing about language. The only other theory that ha been proposed is that language is an artifact, something that man created to serve a need.
Back when it was more common to discuss the artifact theory - end of the 19th century, beginning of the 20th, and before Noam Chomsky, one of the signers of the statement backing away from an evolutionary explanation -, Max Muller refuted most of the proposals as to how such an artifact would come to be.
One of the results of that change seems to be - and I emphasize "seems" - that although human beings had the physiology to talk for over 100,000 years, maybe more, in fact they don't seem to have used language more than 50,000 years ago. As an artifact, one would think that some of the higher apes could learn to use language. But past a certain point, they cannot be taught. So I remain skeptical that the variety of behaviours we see are in fact a culture, or even a pre-culture. They are simply variations which can be explained by differences of environment. It is only the human being who makes artifact and gathers knowledge so as to create an accumulation of behaviours that allow a culture. To develop.
My opinion.
The Music Is Amazing!!!!
Animation was on point.
this is my favourite Ted ed vid
I love this animation
I really like the Visuals in this video
Nice animation.
The animation was beautiful.
omg the editing is so pretty
Great segment! This really helped my paranoia...
Science fiction writer Robert Charles Wilson wrote a series about something a bit similar to these. The first book is called "Spin". It's pretty good
this vedio was awesome😀😀
I ran the numbers on this myself. Let's say that the ship moves at .01% the speed of light. (That's rounding up from the current fastest ship ever built.) Moving at that speed would mean that we're moving at 1/10,000th the speed of light, so for every lightyear travelled, the ship would take 10,000 years. Let's say that the average star is about 5 light years away from its closest neighbor, and there are about 100 billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. Let's also say that every time the machine arrives at a star, it makes another copy of itself, and both copies continue travelling. Therefore, every 50,000 years, the number of machines doubles, and once there are 100 billion machines, the galaxy is effectively colonized. It would take 37 cycles to get to 100 billion, so it can be accomplished in under 2 million years.
Also, let's say that the machines will colonize any habitable planet they find, terraforming it to suit human life, creating a healthy biosphere, and depositing a healthy population of genetically engineered human clones onto it, leaving information and tools to survive behind it. Assuming that for every 100 stars, one has an earth sized planet in the goldilocks zone orbiting an earth-similar star, there will be a billion planets brimming with intelligent human lifeforms by the end of the two million year period.
there's this one book series i read about a year ago about this guy who had his mind uploaded into a machine after dying and getting his head frozen a century earlier, and becomes a transhuman network of massive von Neumann Machine ships, with each individual ship's version of the same guy slightly different than the others. they actually consider themselves distinct enough from Humanity that they refer to themselves as "the Bobs", because the original human whose mind made the Alpha Bob was named Bob. it's a pretty interesting take on Von Neumann machines and transhuman civilization and such an organization's relationship with regular Humanity.
I love the fact that Ted-Ed's animation style is different for every single video.
where do they get all that cool background music??!!
there difference of art design/animation is awesome
What is it with all the space videos this week? Is there a space convention somewhere?
What was that music in the background called?
Im addicted to these videos
1:53 is there a source for this? pls?
Strange to watch during quarantine..... sitting at home
David Brin is a visionary. His book Existence gives a very plausible and intriguing view of future technology, and alien contact. For instance, everyone wears Augmented Reality eyewear, upon which the internet can be viewed overlaying the real world. I could go on and on.
Thanks TED-Ed I didn't need to sleep tonight...
In light of the government released UAP sightings, this idea seams like a plausible explanation of what the UAPs are
The animation and music is *_D O P E_*
I like the background music. 🎵🎶
