Report Broken Documentary

Rating: 9.1/10 (44 votes cast)

There is a fundamental chasm in our understanding of ourselves, the universe, and everything. To solve this, Sir Martin takes us on a mind-boggling journey through multiple universes to post-biological life. On the way we learn of the disturbing possibility that we could be the product of someone elses experiment.

I almost stopped watching this documentary until I found out that John Conway was in it. From Surreals to Life, this man is awesome.

If this reality could be in a computer program then the computer running that program could be part of an even bigger program in a bigger computer. so where does it end . if we develop computers in the future that can simulate more universes then they will eventually contain simulated computers doing the same add infinitum… I feel sick

Why is science so affectionately avoiding the possibility of a First Cause?

Where did the Laws of Nature come from?
Where did the multiverse come from?
In Norway we have a saying; to walk around the porrigde, i.e. to not come to the point, avoiding the obvious. Doesn’t smell like science to me.
-Oh, no! Not the Creator again! Quick! Create some other universes! Or even simulate ours!
It is getting ridiculous. Even simple rules comes from somewhere, no?
Aristotle already talked about the Cause of causes. But then again – what could cause a first cause?

  Because it doesn’t actually explain anything. Or in other words One can not get any useful information how to interact with the world successfully by deciding to believe that there is already an all around explanation to everything and that further gaining of knowledge is therefore unnecessary.

This is part of a series called “What we still don’t know”. A great series, where science and technology meet philosophy.

  You mean where science and technology meet fantasy and become pseudoscience and broken technology?

The thing is there is a total explanation for somethings & then their is know explanation.THE THING IS INSTEAD OFF LOOKING OUT IN THE UNIVERSE FOR ANSWERS & WE HAVENT BEEN THEIR.We should look in our own back yard.The bang is a load off crap,They havent even been too the bottom off the ocean let alone out in the universe, So I really think earthling should start at home, First instaed off trying too figure out whats happerening out their.i do want the name scientist changed too solutionists,because sciencetists are a digrace too man kind,Not all but alot,,MAN & WOMAN KNOW A LOT OFF KNOWLEDGE WITH OUT STUDING,iTS BEEN PAST DOWN IN OUR JEANS ,only iff the earthlings that think tghey know it all listened mabey we might be further than we have been,anyway i have some good evidence FOR EARTH TOO SEE ENJOY BUT REMEMBER WHAT YA WILL SEE WILL CHANGE YA,ANYWAY ENJOY

So, we could all be like Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Total Recall”, where he sits in a chair on Earth and becomes somebody else living on Mars, who doesn’t know he’s sitting in a chair on Earth. If this is just a fancy video game, I think I’ll want my quarter back.

But the real problem, which I’ve never seen addressed in these sorts of conversations, is that physicists say that any phenomenon exists only as a set of probabilities until it is observed…so can a universe exist without an observer? Can a virus, for example, “observe”?

No matter how you slice it, it seems to come down to “consciousness”, whatever that is.
