Does Quantum Mechanics Imply Multiple Universes?

My toxic trait is that I get dumb faded and listen to this like I understand anything they are saying.

Goodness, this conversation and the previous one with Elise, was so enjoyable. It almost restores my faith in humanity that two, or three, people can sit down and talk about such incredibly esoteric things in such a beautiful and companionable way. The presentation was top quality as was Brian's insights as the host. Thank you for providing it for our genuine viewing pleasure.

Two expert communicators of physics sitting down for a chat. Thanks for this.

This was way too short. I could listen to these two dialogue all day. Incredible communicators and teachers, both in very similar ways. They make the complex, somewhat approachable.

So nice to hear an expert of a field be interviewed by another expert of the same field who is just trying to get the information out for the audience.

Brian Greene and Sean Carroll... What a meditation!

Two of my favourite physicists having their typically enlightening conversation. How can you not be enthralled by this stuff?

Sean Carroll’s podcast is the best.

Ouvir Sean Carroll é sempre um prazer! Um dos meus mais preferido e um "grande" comunicador.

I would love to sit down with these 2 guys, have a drink, and talk physics. How cool would that be.🥃

My 2 favorite physicists!!!

i am sooo glad these 2 physicist are finally together talking. love them both!

At 6:12 Brian talks about "Shut up and calculate" dogma that basically discouraged scientists to look at the problem of measurement in QM. And in fact that problem is glossed over in the Physics text books as Sean later mentioned (at 8:00). I think this should be unacceptable in science. And IMO this has been a serious sociological issue that basically was skipped over by the science community. Sean laments about this at 30:49. We may have missed the next Einstein during that period who could have solved it. The lesson is that scientific community should never again ever allow such dogmas of not asking the "why?" questions to take hold. Luckily many scientists (like Sean) and Philosophers (like Tim Maudlin and David Albert) now reject the "shut up and calculate" dogma and press on to try to solve the measurement problem. They should be extremely lauded. BTW the "Shut up and calculate" dogma took hold because Neils Bohr and Copenhagen Interpretation wing won the PR battle against Einstein and Schrodinger. Read all about it in Adam Baker's book "What is real?" I feel that the same effect is happening in the area of understanding of consciousness research due to the so-called "Hard problem of consciousness" dogma due to David Chalmers. Just like "Shut up and calculate" dogma was rejected, so should reject the "Hard problem of consciousness" dogma be rejected. Luckily many scientists (like Anil Seth and Michael Graziano) and Philosophers (like Daniel Dennett (did :( )) reject the "Hard problem of consciousness" dogma and press on to try to solve the understanding of consciousness. They should be extremely lauded.

Wow thank you so much great proud of you sir..

Quantum mechanics was ignored in the 20th century and the same is happening now but it's just so good to hear that people are considering this

I came to the realization the interconnectedness of all things in the universe by comparing it to a vast organism. In this analogy, the universe functions akin to a living being, with Earth representing a tiny yet integral cell within its grand body. Just as cells work together to sustain the health of a body, humanity plays a role in maintaining the equilibrium of the universe. This perspective highlights the interdependence of all life forms and emphasizes our responsibility in nurturing the harmony of the cosmic order. It's a captivating way to contemplate our existence within the vastness of the cosmos and our interconnectedness with something greater than ourselves. In this metaphorical framework, the concept of cancer could be likened to destructive forces such as Hitler and wars, which threaten to disrupt the harmony of the cosmic order. Just as cancerous cells endanger the health of an organism, these destructive forces jeopardize the balance and well-being of the universe. Humanity's struggle against such destructive forces mirrors the body's immune response to combat cancer, working diligently to prevent them from overpowering and harming the larger whole. It underscores our collective effort to preserve the integrity and vitality of the cosmic order, ensuring that harmony prevails over discord.

"This video dives into the mind-bending concept of quantum mechanics and its implications for the existence of multiple universes. The exploration of parallel realities and the theoretical frameworks behind them is both fascinating and thought-provoking. It's a captivating journey into the frontiers of science and philosophy, challenging us to rethink our understanding of reality. Mind blown!"

Many Worlds is an interpretation of QM. Instead of saying that one of the superposed states wins and the others disappear, it’s saying that the others continue to exist in some other universes. But if we can’t see or interact with these other universes then in what sense do they exist? Purely in our minds, I say. This explains nothing at all.

OMG My 2 favourite dudes This is like a Marvel DC crossover!😂

I really enjoyed listening to these two greats talk about their topic. I particularly liked the idea that space and time may be entangled states as mentioned in part 1.
