Emergence - How Stupid Things Become Smart Together
How can many stupid things combine to form smart things? How can proteins become living cells? How become lots of ants a colony? What is emergence?
This video was made possible by a donation by the Templeton World Charity Foundation. A huge thanks to them for their support and help over the last year!

Ok so this may sound stupid, but like, so if cells can tell other cells to change if that is what needed then in contrary to evolution theory, isn’t it possible that certain chemicals can be released that tell the sex cells, such as the sperm and the egg what is needed for the next generation, loads of these maybe completely ineffective and wrong but the body thinks this is what is needed, and possibly both cells are needed to agree on changes for this to work, so both cells must have the same decision for this to happen thus making evolution and change very rare but still possible, and bad mutations maybe accidental for reasons we don’t know

You are missing one of the most iconic examples: Computers. They are fantastic machines that are made out of very simple units called transistors, which are mere gates that have only two options: to connect or disconnect, zero or one. It’s very much like the neurons of our brain. And from this extreme simplicity, you get infinite complexity and astounding results!

Emergence is when a Celestial is born. Usually a volcano blows up and basically the whole planet goes bye bye and a giant rock with weird eyes makes more galaxies
I find that understanding emergence is one of the biggest keys for people to understand how the world works. pretty much every complex thing we do (engineering, biology, programming) consists of understanding how self contained units, can work together to make something more complex work, adding layers of abstraction so we dont have to worry about the step by step minutia, allowing us to make or study more complex things without getting bogged down in the details.
"An ant is stupid" *Look, he's trying his best okay?* Edit: It's been two years and I hate that I have to say this, but please don't be mean to each other in the replies :( This is just a joke and I shouldn't need to explain that

Only those who are the loudest get the most attention, not the smart people. Which is why society is run by corrupt politicians, thinking they know better than everyone else. Society have many flaws, but despite all this stupid stuff it's still operational. Which means there is some sort of emergence taking place.
This explanation assumes at least some intelligence at the lower emmergence level in your example. The ants can remember who they have met and know, based on the chemicals they perceive, what job their opposite has. They can also compare the quantity of different encounters and draw different conclusions from different results. So far, so simple. You could do the same thing with four lines of computer code. I have no problem imagining that these four lines have enough space in an ant "brain". Now for the assumption: the ants have knowledge of every job there is in their collony. That's quite a bit of knowledge and probably more than four lines of code! And they carry this knowledge around with them permanently. For a human, that would be quite an achievement. Humans need about three years to learn just one (admittedly somewhat more complex) job and they usually have only a rough idea of other professions. The ant has never been taught either its old job or its new one. I think that's called instinct. So my question is: What is instinct? How does it work?

So unless someone is referring to a single H20 molecule when they say they are going to drink water, water could very well be considered wet in virtually all day-to-day use cases.

In a team fortress 2 (a classic class based shooter) server, players looking at the class selection menu may choose a class to play, but they may also see what classes other players on their team are playing as. If all the players of a certain class leave, say, medic, and there are too many players of some other class, say, sniper, the team is at risk of getting beaten very badly. At this point, no critical response is triggered, all the players keep playing the overabundant classes they were playing, and the team loses. Ants are smarter than us.

Onkgopotse Sibanyoni Why would you though? An ant might not understand that it has one task for most of its life before it dies, which seems pretty futile to humans. But you're not like that. You have the ability to choose whatever the hell you want to do in existence. You can choose not to support the ant colony. You can choose to go surf on a beach or play video games. Invent the next machine that allows us to travel at light speed. Find the love of your life and run away together forever. While it might seem like we're all just ants with one specific task in life, I believe were much, much more complex than that as humans. We have potentially infinite and unlimited free will to believe and do anything we want.

A computer was a job long ago, just like a teacher, doctor or scientist. But some one decided that we need a faster way to calculate the design of the first atomic bomb. It works so well we used it to calculate the Hydrogen bomb. Now electronic computer helps make quantum computers, that can make an even better bomb. "Emerging stupidity" 😎

Emergence is when friends work together
And here we are an emergence, within many emergences, communicating with other emergence's on an emergent community, upon an emergent communication platform- Oh no, I've gone crosseyed. Good thing my eyes are just sewn on black buttons.

I thought the exactly same thing. The soundtrack of this videos is really fascinating. I find that the song itself is also emergence. It start with single string, gradually add more instruments and they get more diverse. At the end they are arranged in harmony with many different melodies and beats but actually all of them are basically originated from the first single string. It is just adding more sounds in all directions so it is getting more complex, ended up having grand finale represents Kruzgesagt's main theme. Impressive.
Awesome video! I never heard of this phenomenon and it just makes a lot of things make sense now
I love it how the video starts with "an ant is pretty stupid", brilliant

I found this quote about emergence online that got me thinking about it a lot in an unexpected way: "Emergence is a handwave of colossal proportions that is easily revealed by asking "what is this emergence and where does it come from?" If you're going to be a pure materialist you don't get to just say oh it magically comes from nowhere, you have to show the mechanism." Is emergence just a handwave? I'm starting to think it might be. Thoughts please.
@MW-oq6ew
Жыл бұрын
By hand wave you mean, it's a way of describing a phenomena without actually explaining the phenomena? Sort of like an empty way of explaining things? Yes. it's a hand wave, in the same way like asking the question "why do things work the way they do?" and someone responding with "spontaneity" (instead of emergence). Really, emergence does nothing to explain why things work the way they do, but is merely a statement that something is composed of smaller things that are weirdly different. In reality, nothing is more than the sum of it's parts. Nothing. But to accurately understand and quantify the sum of many parts, you need to actually take into consideration and understand each and every part.
@Ohnoyoudont9791

@@MW-oq6ew Yes, that is essentially what I mean by 'hand wave'; it also implies an almost reckless discarding of any arguments that contradict your own point of view, essentially "ignoring the elephant in the room". "In reality, nothing is more than the sum of its parts". From the perspective a materialist, yes I agree. This notion links with the solution to any paradox (which I think emergence is - the paradox of 'how is something created from nothing?'): we simply haven't identified all the parts yet, and I believe that is what is happening with all these 'emergent' phenomena. On another tangent: sentient (ie. self aware/conscious) artificial intelligence seems to be build on the hope that it will 'emerge' out of powerful-enough computation. I am skeptical about this idea due to my skepticism of emergence: what is the fundamental building block of consciousness that artificial intelligence hopes to create? I don't see how consciousness will emerge until that question is answered, but I suppose it could happen by accident.
The background music of this video is incredible.
