Part Two: Quantum Mechanics Breaks Our Idea of Time. Dr. Stephen Wolfram Explains How the Universe Contains Infinite Timelines Unfolding Simultaneously in a Multi-Threaded Structure
Manage episode 523511962 series 2848056
What if everything you know about reality, intelligence, science, aliens, and even your own body…is wrong?
In this mind-expanding conversation of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Stephen Wolfram — the legendary computer scientist, theoretical physicist, mathematician, founder of Wolfram Research — reveals how the groundbreaking technologies he created are re-shaping our understanding of the universe itself.
We dive into the limits of science, the secrets of biological evolution, and why computational irreducibility may explain why some mysteries of nature can never be predicted, only experienced. Dr. Wolfram breaks down whether his computations suggest humanity is cosmically significant…or completely insignificant in a universe built from the same atoms repeating the same rules everywhere.
Discover why the objective reality you experience as a human might be totally different for other species, and why this could be the key to understanding alien intelligence, extrasensory perception, and why there might be alien minds all around us right now that we simply can’t perceive.
Dr. Stephen Wolfram also breaks down:
- Does the body have its own language? (And, if so, what autoimmune disease might be “saying")
- What can truly be built from random mutation, and why evolution even works at all
- How reductionist science is limiting medicine, and how living matter actually behaves
- Why AI may function as an alien mind, and what that reveals about the shocking simplicity of human language
- What makes the human mind special, how we evolved this way, and why that very fact proves we are not the most advanced species possible
- Do computers use a form of telepathy to communicate with one another?
He even takes us behind the scenes of his work as a consultant on the hit film ARRIVAL, explaining how alien logograms connect to his research on how language shapes human thought, what abstract concepts a bigger brain could comprehend, and what kinds of ideas we might be biologically incapable of imagining.
If you’re fascinated by astrophysics, AI, consciousness, aliens, evolution, mathematics, language, or the limits of human understanding, this episode of MBB will challenge everything you think you know!
