Plot twist: Particles are actual beings doing particle businesses and they will get offended if they are told they behave randomly.

Probably unbelievably confused, because as it turns out, although it may seem the exact opposite, true randomness is actually one of the most computationally intensive things to generate. A good comparison would be asking a lump of coal to permanently create a peace in the Middle East that leaves everyone satisfied.

The most annoying thing is when particles in the left lane have some kind of repulsive force keeping them from passing the particles on the right even though the lane in front of them is clear. Slower particles need to keep to the right.

“Slower particles need to keep to the right” - Particles don't “need” anything, we're talking physics here! The correct way to think of it is: the coupling strength between particles and the right-pulling field differs from country to country, and even from state to state in the US. Their antiparticles, confined to the UK and some of its former dominions, Japan, and a few other countries, experience the opposite, left pull from the same field. 🤓

We can be approximated as spheres, like cows are. Hari Seldon, the great psychohistorian in Asimov's "Foundation" novel, had a much more thorough theory that treated human society as a highly predictable collection of particles. [Edited to correct the spelling of Hari.]

A Sheldon crisis happened in the initial period of the Foundation and were highly predictable by Seldon's psyco-historiography science. The entire path of human history was derailed by the appearance of a mutant person, which was able to drive other persons behaviour, mentally. At that point in time, the entire Foundation project was destroyed; Seldon had foreseen the possibility of something unforeseeable, and setup a secret Second Foundation, made not of scientists but of mentalists. Read the Foundation series, it is very well written, nothing to do with the abomination shown of AppleTV...

This was so good. Please make some more videos on statistical physics. How it can be used to explain more complex historical, social and economic phenomena. You can make an attempt to explain how the the agent based model can help solving the non deterministic nature of fair value or the apparently randome interaction between market forces that detarmine and give birth to equilibria instead of determining a single state of equilibrium of price in a free market economy. Lee Somlin once said it was possible only in a restricted market to achieve the single state of equilibrium. He said it was not possible yet for the economists to create such a formula as the physicists, that can articulate a general rule or law. Can these findings of statistical physics be applied to other fields like history, human behaviour and human psychology, economics, chemistry or biolgy? One more video regarding this topic is the need of the hour.

Very cool! Studying "emergence" seems like a "mirror theory" of reductionism.

Thank you Mr Ash. Your contribution is always welcome. My town Hebden Bridge, is going to be gridlocked for days due to resurfacing road works. It's a main road thruogh Calderdale. I'm going to observe group behavior in real time by walking walking to and from my job.

It's just like nature keeps replicating itself on a larger scales, makes me wonder how far it goes.

Your channel is my favorite on youtube, thanks for the awesome videos!

Absolutely fantastic!! 🤩 Amazing!! Wonderful!! No words to describe it!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Can't put here the right number on thumb ups!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Thank you so much!!

Humans are animals too. It's no big surprise that we would behave any differently. I like the fact that we behave like particles, I guess size doesn't matter.

There is no escape from physics! I'm working within the realm of psychology and I wouldn't know any behaviour of humans, not being based on the laws of physics. For example, people behave exactly in accordance to Newton's laws of motion. Thanks for another great video and its effect to spread this helpful information. There's only one force behind all the varieties of forces we detect. At least that's how I experience it.

And as always, a big thank you, Mr. Ash! Thumbs up, keep going...

One of the most interesting videos I’ve watched recently. Love learning. Thank you science. Thank you those responsible for science. Thank you Arvin Ash

IMHO, This is the most intriguing video you've made so far...and thats saying a lot!

Beauty of Physics never scares me

It think that the importance of the natural selection (tendency to survive) can not be neglected. The sudden and unespected change of direction of a birds swarm to avoid a predator can not be assimilated to any fluid.

Again, this is a wonderful, intriguing, and informative video. While my science background is limited, I comprehend the intent and subject matter presented without challenge, but research based on upon it. I should say the beauty in simplicity that seems to define the beauty in our world is refreshing. I should also add I understand the simplicity in the negative way. They both coexist, but I act on the negative and dwell on the beauty. Thanks for the video!...Again

Excellent video, Arvin. It's most interesting and entertaining.

Comparing aspects of quantum mechanics and relativity with everyday life and inventing analogies to better understand both is something I find myself doing often. I'm not sure of how useful it really is in my own case, but this was interesting and kind of fun too. Thanks.

So, awesome! Nothing in this universe is disconnected, everything is related to everything in every level and all levels are connected between one another. I love to belong to a group of people that can marvel at your videos! Thank you!

Dear Arvin, you are an amazing educator.....thank you for leanding us your sparkling intelect that we might further our undersanding of this beautiful world: truly standing on the shoulders of giants.

There is a huge difference with analyzing crowds vs how particles move: The crowd is build out of intelligent species with a conscious and with a certain goal. We humans were trained by teachers and parents, unlike particles. That's why I am very skeptical about any study that tries to connect those. It's like connecting the brain structure to the structure of the universe... Makes no sense (to me).

This is a very interesting topic with many practical real life applications. Please do more. Statistics and probability are mind boggling subjects sometimes.

Great work! Quite thought provoking

For further reading, I can recommend the book Classical Econophysics. It deals with topics such as how certain, pretty unequal, income distributions also arise from actors exchanging goods on a market - and how that inequality statistically increases rather dramatically if you allow a small group of the actors/particles to get their income from simply owning property. Quite an eye opener I’d say.

We are sometimes particles, sometimes waves. Entangled all the while, that's for sure.

See John Conway's Game of Life. Thru very simple rules it can create a great variety of "emergent" non immediately intuitive higher level behaviors, to the point of being able to solve any algorithmically solvable (computationally solvable) problem (Turing completeness).

This is a great segment from Arvin. I often use the birds murmuring metaphor in discussions, and this highlights what it means to be a living creature in a physical universe while having "independent" consciousness. Note the sheep following the uniform paths...until individuals decide to cut over to the feed shed (or whatever that is). In this way, we are different from dumb particles, right?

Thanks for this great video, Arvin :) One question (or suggestion for a future video): I've read around that Mass and Energy could be interpreted as macroscopic emerging properties of a set of many quantum particles. Eg when a macroscopic body absorbs some energy and varies its motion, the wave function of each of its consituent particles must also change to reflect the macroscopic translation in space. The fact that all the wave functions become constrainted in the same way, increases the content of energy of the body. The process of imposing the coherence of the wave functions in a macroscopic body to change its motion requires a force proportional to the number of elementary pieces (ie the mass). So the effort to reset all the wave functions in a body into a new status could also be an emerging property, ie the inertia of the body. Do you think this interpretation makes sense? Could help to bridge the gap between the small quantum world and the macroscopic reality where we live in and explain Newton's laws at a more fundamental level? Apologies for such a long post! :)

for flocks of bird and schools of fish, would there be a behavioral difference between individuals on the outside ("surface boids") and individuals inside the conglomeration ("volume boids")? the ones deep inside see a somewhat uniform number of neighbors all around while the ones on the "surface" see more neighbors in one direction

We are particles. But not just particles. Clearly all the stuff a collection of particles can do is quite fascinating and sometimes amazing.

So interesting. As above so below ✨️

I am not just a particle. I am also a wave form depending on how you measure my movements. However, you can only know my position or my momentum, not both.

Think of this the next time you’re in traffic and think of how you can very slightly improve it for the people behind you. Try to match the average speed of traffic. Stop and start more gently than the person in front of you. Eat up a little bit of that traffic wave every time it hits you. If a small portion of drivers did this, stop-start traffic wouldn’t exist. In the worst case, you’d just be driving slowly the whole time never pressing your brakes.

I used to believe I had the superpower of predicting what's the best way to go through, in a busy train station.. but now I think I just understand gas distribution lol

for humans/vehicles acting as "particles", what kind of thing acts as external influence (heat source/pressure pump)?

Many people think in education at each grade they have to clear higher and higher level of physics and therefore they study other supporting subjects in each grade. At the end of education they have understood the world

Great explanation. Philip Ball, Critical Mass

life and the universe are driven by the same fundamental laws of nature - it's not a surprise that physics is so powerful for understanding behaviour of humanns as it is powerful for describing elemetary particles.

It was a well-argued study of wealth and Boyle's Law that lit me up. Statistics rule us. Understanding that the extremes of the Bell Curve make for a chaotic social mix is to be noted. Seeking to make this completely orderly is not possible when independent agents (us) do their private agendas or discover by accident novel means to gain those objectives. You can only prepare so much to suppress variety otherwise you become hidebound and the innovators will either destroy their social order or go where they are more appreciated.

Alas, the COVID pandemic has turned a lot of us into weakly interacting massive particles.

It's hard to predict human behaviour individually. On a group level, the bigger the size of the group -- the easier and more precise the prognosis becomes.

To be clear the field inside the electron will pull on the electromagnetic field.. because the field that is part of the electron will be pulling towards its center.... And since it can't pass through the electronics field it becomes condensed because because the energy that's in the field is just dense enough in the electron to trap the electromagnetic field and make it become condensed

Fractal existence. ;O)- Wait til they figure out our Universe is a single cell organism that reproduces via a Grand Fission process. I know, my mind was blown when I figured it out. Remember, size is no barrier scaled in 4 dimensional space.

Will release a conversation about this phenomena and my analysis of the thought that we ourselves are molecules including the structures we make physically & metaphysically (society, language, mental models, focus groups, anything you could really think of really etc.). It's easy to get caught up in our own lives but trying to imagine and keep track of all data sets of events from the cosmological web scale down to the quark, gluon scale and beyond vice versa, etc. proves to be too complex for our minds to comprehend as they are either such tiny or such vast numbers. We naturally run Occam's Razors on everything that doesn't involve our realm directly affecting our instinctual lives. This realm that we are in is tremendously miniscule compared to the cosmic web, but yet exceedingly large & grand to the subatomic realm. Both of which are realms we have poor understanding of since one is beyond our fundamental limits & the other veers off into ridiculous complexity towards the vast array of spacetime & inflation. No matter how much one zooms in or out of the discipline/ focus being studied, there is always complexity. Ours takes the cake for the one a majority of humanity cares for the most since it's the most tangible/ visible one that we see. But the zoom out scales on both directions (from tiny to grandiose) still affect us & yet we have the ignorance of being molecules in a petri dish not knowing how to comprehend a universe outside of ours. The way i see it is, imagine how hard it would be to explain to a 2 dimensional sentient being how 3 dimensions look, feel, and work; they were not designed to think in that realm, only 4 quadrants ( up, down, left, right) which says a lot about realms we are not familiar with but yet have an influence on us, do we turn a blind eye or try to rationally understand only what we need to know to improve our understanding and relationships on this plane of existence?
