Pausing at 5:20 to say: WOW, I really like how the visuals of the timometer and the film reel are so perfectly alligned with the sound effects of them turning. THIS IS PERFECT! And I love it, gonna watch that part again after the video just because it is so awesome! Total immersion is happening there! Go beards GO!
One of the best videos on TH-cam ever. Really a great and inventive style of educational, deeply insightful video making. Not being hyperbolic or ironic here. (disclaimer: I am not a robot promoting the cause of robots)
When you guys were arguing at the end, I thought for sure you'd have someone in a robot costume come on screen and make you guys apologize and make up.
I think as interesting as the questions are about what's to come (or even where we are right now), what's equally (or perhaps even more) interesting are the hopes, anxieties or fears people express about where we are/where we're heading. It's so revealing in terms of how people define what makes us us or how they position our relation to technology, and what those questions mean about who we are, what we can do, what we can imagine or create. This is deep stuff, man. Looking forward to tomorrow's video.
That last option of merging with machines, is what I've been entertaining for quite a while now. Seeing it so formulated actually makes me able to look at the others with more open eyes, and I agree that it could be anybody's bet. The part about our apparent wisdom despite not knowing how everything around us works was really interesting too, but I think the advice to quite prognosticating is sound, at least on such a large scale.
If you pause at 5:47 in the computations per second there shouldn't be a 0 in the 'middle' , it should be a 1 or 10º. It doesn't make sense since below are the decimals and above are the 10's and 100's, but between them, suddenly there where 0 computations per sec. THIS IS JUST SOMETHING I NOTICED, GOOD VIDEO THOUGH!
To be fair, we human never fully understand the nature or our surroundings. But the nature/our surroundings always present themselves with a illusion of simplicity to fool us to think we understand what's going on. The same can be said for future complex computers/robots, they could present a simple enough user interfaces for us to 'interact' with the robots/computers.
Loved this video. Love you guys. Since 2009. But, Neil Degrasse Tyson pointed out recently on Star Talk with Bill Nye that Moores Law and technology are progressing at a 'geometric rate' (doubling) and not an 'exponential rate' (squaring). He accused people (even scientists) of using the word exponential too often, and in the wrong context. But I'm all for a new Quantum Chips series, LOL! Hope you guys get a chance to go to CERN soon!
I love the idea of this show; I really do. And I really do love the presenters of the show. But sometimes, I feel like it is SciShow with more details, but less depth. Like it describes the arguments out there, but doesn't do enough to challenge them or present the array of valid counterarguments. I guess I'm just in the minority, or at least a dissenter who wandered into an echo-chamber that doesn't want his voice. I mean, you're getting views, and teaching, at least, something. So is it my place to criticize? I don't know...This in particular is a woefully controversial issue, so maybe it's unfair to pick this vid to raise concerns. I'm still glad you are sharing, and as a result, giving me something to watch and think about.
There's another option that I would put out there. It's possible that through advanced pharmaceuticals or other currently unknown technology that humans evolve super human mental or physical abilities that makes it impossible for robots/AI to ever catch up.
the moore's law might even affect the creation of the universe to the point where earth was created and have some connection to the fibonacci sequence...
I refuse to worry about the singularity or give it any creedence personally. Smart as a human? Is this REALLY anything to get worked up about? Seriously. Still, all my favorite Sci-fi action movie plots are about the singularity, Cool topic! I won't say this is my favorite Good stuff series, because personally you guys seem to just be getting better and better.
9:15 remind me of In a Nutshell video What is Life,is Death Real? the line between life and death are kinda blurry cant wait until I could get robot husband
The date of singularity, if that is the point when machines surpass human intelligence, would have to depend to a certain extent on just which human we're talking about. In many cases, it might seem to have already been reached. (That's right, looking at you in the back there, getting ready to post your trolling response here!)
I think there is already some sort of mergence happening, because the connection between people and the internet (which is basically a second brain) gets stronger and stronger. So in a way, we live in symbiosis with a network of machines.
Memristor! When you guys where talking about future technology that will continue the trend that Moores law has laid out. Look up Memristors. Also there is two types of Quantum computers. Both are impressive in there own right. But they are merely tools to sure specific purposes. The CPUs that are used in every day computers are general purpose computing devices. Quantum mechanics are simply not needed for general purpose computing. Perhaps one day the average person will be able to gain instant access to massive amounts of data and the way at which the average person uses that data would benefit from the use of a Quantum Computer then a QPU can be added to the CPU to crunch numbers much like we use an APU today. Oh... just a note... in order to see that work you probably need Memristor's to handle that data. So... Memristor! WOOT! P.S: I super wish I was able to post this back when you actually made the video instead of now. *sigh*.
I personally don't think that the age of technology taking over will ever occur because we can't replicate randomness (free will) and sentiment in a machine, in that one detail, the machines will never "outsmart" us. The machine is just a bunch of algorithms, if statements if you will, that just run when things happen and the machine takes into account all variables to choose the best execution based on theoretical and empirical knowledge. The machines will never make machines greater than themselves because they can never create and imagine new things. They can only make smaller things until they can't anymore. We can advance machines as much as we want but in the end it will never truly become as "intelligent" as a human. It's just the nature of how everything works. Something smarter than us might be able to though...
Terminator vs Astro Boy vs Borg. My guess the Singularity will look like the Borg (only more disorganized internally. ) Singularity is already happening. I cannot work without my office computer. Literally. Without that machine and the specialized software on it, I cannot do my job. The work I do is too complicated for me to do on my simple human brain Yet it is too random for a computer program to do on its own either. Only a man machine can handle it. And that is the singularity.
Im hoping for scenario 3, otherwise 2. scenario 1 doesnt sound too logical, which is what we make them for. Just be sure to be nice to machines, if they do turn on us you atleast got some befriended :P
Moores law at an end? Nah, just go parallel! And yes, I know how a computer works. I write AI. It is not the computer that is smart, it is the algorithm. The intelligence is in the math; thinking math. In a sense, we are not creating thinking machines. we are borrowing the ability to think from mathematics itself. AI is beautiful!
Holy misconceptions, Batman! Evolution is *NOT* a progression from less complex organisms to more complex organisms. Not in the least. That misconception is one of the most common ways that creationists try to systematically *mislead* people about evolution. Sorry to burst the bubble, people, but by almost any biological measure, we are not more complex than a huge number of the multi-cellular, eukaryotic organisms that have existed throughout history and prehistory. Complexity can add redundancy, but it can also lead to more chance of things going wrong.
Neil G. Dickson We actually got into a big argument about depicting evolution in this manner. Although it might not come across in the video but this view of biological evolution and subsequent cultural evolution should be taken as a metaphor--not a literal description of how evolution works. However, you can think of life on earth as progressing from single cell organisms to big brainy apes just as well as you can imagine simple gadgets progressing into complex thinking machines. Anyway, that's how a lot of singularity enthusiasts describe how things will happen.
IDk if anyone has said this yet or perhaps it's what the next video is about (seems a bit heavy a subject for the good stuff) but we are already robots. We do things as other people expect us to do. We act in very predictable ways that we've learned from our environment and we are constantly being brainwashed by media. We like to think we're unique and special, sure we all have something going for us that makes us different individuals but if you think about it we follow rules and norms very carefully and it is completely out of our control. I guess technically that isn't the same as a robot but it's worth a thought.
Knew it! That was a great episode. How much of a coincidence is it that this playlist finished two weeks before the new terminator film is premiering (at least in Finland)? Suspicious.
Pausing at 5:20 to say:
WOW, I really like how the visuals of the timometer and the film reel are so perfectly alligned with the sound effects of them turning.
THIS IS PERFECT! And I love it, gonna watch that part again after the video just because it is so awesome! Total immersion is happening there!
Go beards GO!
Ruudsch Ma' Hinda Thanks!
Dang. I'm so good at clearing a table of dishes. Better than a robot! I should be a waiter... wait...
WheezyWaiter ..er
I'd say you're a robot- uh, a machine.
This might be the coolest playlist you've done yet. So cool. All the coolness.
One of the best videos on TH-cam ever.
Really a great and inventive style of educational, deeply insightful video making.
Not being hyperbolic or ironic here.
(disclaimer: I am not a robot promoting the cause of robots)
This show was a large step above the rest. Keep going guys!
When you guys were arguing at the end, I thought for sure you'd have someone in a robot costume come on screen and make you guys apologize and make up.
schmittelt Gah! That would've been great! Where were you when we were shooting that??
***** You hiring? I'm writing a novel.
Really loving this series. Already making me wish I had gone into robotics academically
I think as interesting as the questions are about what's to come (or even where we are right now), what's equally (or perhaps even more) interesting are the hopes, anxieties or fears people express about where we are/where we're heading.

You deserve more subscribers. The show is really good and you learn a lot!
You guys really deserve more views and subscribers for this stuff :P
Vimple That's where the "share" in "Like, share, and subscribe" comes in. Also, the "subscribe," but assume you've already done that. Agreed!
I would totally watch "Quantum Chips". :)

I never could have imagined that two beards would be better than one!! Weezy you never cease to amaze me!! Good for you and yours your long-term fan
We've definitely created algorithms capable of creating algorithms.
If you pause at 5:47 in the computations per second there shouldn't be a 0 in the 'middle' , it should be a 1 or 10º.
It doesn't make sense since below are the decimals and above are the 10's and 100's, but between them, suddenly there where 0 computations per sec.
THIS IS JUST SOMETHING I NOTICED, GOOD VIDEO THOUGH!
How am I just now finding out about this channel!? Super well done compared to the other stuff out there.
Another great video guys. Well done.

Wait. Matt made a hotpocket that made another hotpocket?
at around 1:15 why was their no mention of whe wheezy clones
Going to stop being a doofus and support The Good Stuff on Patreon.
OllieHills still am yet to do this gimme ten days and i'll be paid and I'll throw money at you and scream "TEACH ME STUFF... AND MAKE IT GOOD STUFF!"
I like how at 3:52 you added the first Wheezy video and Wheezy's birthdate in the notable Earth events timeline.
"Don't you think that's amazing?" / "Oh, wait... That was a Hot Pocket."
pineappleboyfilms best quotes? same!
pineappleboyfilms also LOVE your work Jake
Thanks, sir.
There's another option that I would put out there. It's possible that through advanced pharmaceuticals or other currently unknown technology that humans evolve super human mental or physical abilities that makes it impossible for robots/AI to ever catch up.
The last option for singularity in which we become ''more than human'' is basically Vision beating up Ultron
How did Battlestar Galactica not make it into the clips on this one? Convergence feels a lot like Cylons.
Jeff...Jeff Goldblum?!
the moore's law might even affect the creation of the universe to the point where earth was created and have some connection to the fibonacci sequence...
This is good stuff. Get it? Huh? I'll show myself out.
I totally want Quantum CHiPs starring Erik Estrada and Scott Bakula to be a thing.
7:15 Craig says "Robots need algorithms to make decisions. Algorithms are made by people." He's not considering Machine Learning.
I refuse to worry about the singularity or give it any creedence personally. Smart as a human? Is this REALLY anything to get worked up about? Seriously. Still, all my favorite Sci-fi action movie plots are about the singularity, Cool topic! I won't say this is my favorite Good stuff series, because personally you guys seem to just be getting better and better.
Weren't these the three options on mass effect, destroy living beings, destroy the robots, or mixed them together??
Next video has FIRST Robotics in it!
How many more will be in this playlist? I don't want it to eennnnnnddd
Aaron Landers Unfortunately, only one more. Fortunately, there's one more!
WheezyWaiter Then it shall be a most excellent finale. Meh meh meh
🎩
😐
That was a cute little easter egg with Wheezy's first video for the 2007 reel.
At 7:15 I guffawed. Thank you for that.
9:15
remind me of In a Nutshell video What is Life,is Death Real?
the line between life and death are kinda blurry
cant wait until I could get robot husband

Reminds me of Mass Effect 3. Specially the choices.
Next Doctor Octopus for Spider-Man movie might have real mechanical arms.
I think there is already some sort of mergence happening, because the connection between people and the internet (which is basically a second brain) gets stronger and stronger. So in a way, we live in symbiosis with a network of machines.
Can you have sex directly to your computer?
Can you have sex directly to your computer?
So we now have the capability of creating a real-life Doctor Octopus, how long until we finally get a REAL Green Goblin?

Has anyone else noticed that Christopher Atkeson looks just like Dr Light? Megaman when?
This got a little Wayne's world vibey in the end there.
Yes. Yes they will. Next question, Bamber.
Ultron says hi!
Sam, Al, Ponch and John.
I am learning...alternatives for the word but
now the 3 laws of robotics
Jeff Goldbloom!!! Yeeeees!

Soooo, basically the ending of Mass Effect 3?
I....I really want Quantum CHiPs to be a thing...
TheJohnnyRaygun Yes. With Eric Estrada and Scott Bakula as cyborg buddies fighting cyber crime.
Paper money isn't exactly technology but more a concept that only exists because enough people believe in it.
Will self replicating virus kill us off or self replicating machine?
"if the robots win, we'll have to listen to techno, HECK NO, TECHNO! I"ll NEVER LISTEN TO TECHNO!!"
"good evening Mr J..." Am I the only one that heard HARRY QUINN!
Now I want to watch Ghost in the Shell
If our choices really matter and there is no stupid starchild, I'm ok with anything that may come.
When the singularity happens, AI will conclude that humans are dumb - not worth bothering with, and leave us.
Terminator vs Astro Boy vs Borg.
My guess the Singularity will look like the Borg (only more disorganized internally. )
Singularity is already happening. I cannot work without my office computer. Literally. Without that machine and the specialized software on it, I cannot do my job.

Xbox Kinect as the head! Whoo!
Quantum Chips so are they going to ride motorcycles through time? Oh wait they already time travel forward.
I can't wait to be a post-human super cyborg!
Im hoping for scenario 3, otherwise 2.
scenario 1 doesnt sound too logical, which is what we make them for.
Just be sure to be nice to machines, if they do turn on us you atleast got some befriended :P
Quantum Chips made me cackle
becoming cyborgs is the way to go
infact becoming fully synthetic would be what would bring forth an age of shared luxury and immortality
I wish I could support the show, but the robots took my job ...
He made a Hot Pocket that could make other Hot Pockets?
Moores law at an end? Nah, just go parallel! And yes, I know how a computer works. I write AI. It is not the computer that is smart, it is the algorithm. The intelligence is in the math; thinking math. In a sense, we are not creating thinking machines. we are borrowing the ability to think from mathematics itself. AI is beautiful!
I would happily become a cyborg.
Humanity has gone too far with Jeff Goldblum.
wtf 7:18 XD
When does Ex Machina become real tho
just get a ai to build a better ai
God made all the animals!

it's obvious you guys are acting but...can you please try a little harder to hide it?
First 'First'
