The universe in it’s entirety must surely be of infinite size and must always have been. Even at the moment of the Big Bang when the universe was of infinite density it was also of infinite size. However when the observable universe which is of finite size, was of infinite density ( at the moment of the Big Bang ) it must have been of zero size.

Yep. AI should modelled on Max.

Personally I see mathematics as a language. It's a medium for expressing ideas and relationships very precisely. So to me a 'physical law' expressed mathematically is just a very precise description of physical relationships and behaviour. So I'm not at all surprised that mathematics is so good at describing physics. Since mathematics is a very precise, rigorous and consistent language all that means is that the behaviour of physical systems is very consistent. Well, I hope the universe behaves consistently. If it doesn't we're in big trouble. That doesn't mean mathematics defines that behaviour though. The behaviour comes first. The problem is of course we don't know why we see this particular behaviour, or why the particles and constants in physics are the way they are. Maybe maths is fundamental, but I don't think that logically follows from mathematics being good at describing the universe.

Natural numbers, real numbers, quantities, elements of a series, etc. We actually use them in many different ways. I understand Tegmark's point, I think that when he talks about the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics, I just disagree that this is evidence for his thesis. He might be correct, but I just don't buy that line of argument. That mathematics accurately describes the universe just means the universe is a consistent system, that's all.

What we humans perceive as the observable universe is a very very small amount of what is out there.

When I first read "Our Mathematical Universe" I threw the book across the room. Then I picked it up, and read it again and again. It's one thing to say our universe is "described" by mathematics, but to state that it "IS a mathematical structure" .. that was a shock. How Tegmark made the leap was just as shocking. I am assuming that he using the premise that ""All things being equal, the simplest solution tends to be the best one. Anyway I really am proud that there are physicists like Tegmark, Everett, and yes even Witten who are willing to risk their reputations on what might be dead end theories. But as a plea to all scientists, please leave out the word "infinite" . It is a sign that you have given up.

I think, in a very simple language, space refers to vacuum. So when the expression, "space is expanding" is used, I wonder, "Expanding to where?" When something expands, it displaces something or occupies a space that was previously unoccupied. So what is the expanding space displacing or what was the state of the unoccupied condition (or let me say "space" to which space is expanding? I think it is accurate to say the universe (the totality of matter and energy) is expanding rather than saying space is expanding. Space is an infinity therefore it is not possible for it to expand.

For the fact that the universe is evidently expanding, it is clear that it has not reached infinity and will never reach infinity no matter how long it takes. At best, it will keep expanding for all future eternity. Infinite space (empty, dark, cold endless space) is ever there awaiting the universe's expansion. What lies beyond the universe is described in these words: "stars with no set course, for which the blackest darkness stands reserved forever." - Jude 13 in the Bible. Our mathematics for infinity is always going in the opposite direction. Instead of getting infinitely larger, it gets infinitely smaller. That being the case, we have to make a logical assumption: infinity is equal to one. With this assumption, all other things will be infinitely less than one but more than zero. That goes in line with our current mathematics where we easily get descending infinity.

LIGO detected ripples in space due to the collision of two stellar mass black holes! The method of detection is to measure the amount of compression of one of its arms (its an L shaped detector) by splitting a beam of light into the two arms, have them reflected at the ends, and then join them again. If peaks and troughs line up when joined - no gravitational waves, if they don't, that means the earth was ever so slightly compressed by ripples in spacetime.

Very well spoken. I would argue math is only a way we have found to interpret the universe. It allows us to abstractly analyze the universe and understand things that would be difficult to understand otherwise.

I had first thought that Max Tegmark was totally out of his mind, but I am now changing my own mind, and am even surprised he didn’t double down on his last statement by highlighting this example: since Kantor first ventured into these treacherous waters, we now know that in mathematics there are different types of infinities and that there are infinities beyond infinities. Aleph-0, Aleph-1, Aleph-2,…, Aleph-Aleph-0, ad infinitum and beyond. At the same time, physicists are increasingly saying that the ultimate stuff that reality is made of is « information », aka math. So the next question must be: where does rationality, and thus math, come from? - remembering that « rational » comes from Latin « ratio » meaning calculation. Now that’s a question!! And what does it mean that we are able to have access to it? This echoes Einstein’s (was it he?) « What I find most incomprehensible is that reality is comprehensible ». That wonder-statement is perhaps the most baffling one I’ve ever heard. Thanks for this interview: I’d have liked to hear Max explain his views a bit more deeply.

1 + 1 = 2 IS NOT A GENERAL TRUTH. --------------------------------------------------------- If one ponders whether there exists any system of knowledge no scientist, philosopher, saint or whoever has ever disputed, then what comes immediately to anybody's mind is the system of arithmetic operations. 1 + 1 = 2 is often quoted as the best example of an undeniable absolute truth. But are these operational rules so certain? Consider the following observations: Imagine you add one heap (=lot) of apples to another heap of apples. Then you must write 1 heap + 1 heap = 1 heap In this case it is very right to say 1+ 1 = 1 Therefore the statement that "one plus one equals two" is only a conditional fact and not an absolute truth. Similarly also other rules of arithmetic. For example if you take two heaps of apples with two in each and two with three in each and make five heaps with two in each, then the statement 2 heaps + 2 heaps = 5 heaps, hence 2 + 2 = 5 is also correct. Have you ever seen even a single table of arithmetic operations, where it is mentioned that accuracy of these operations are conditional? On the contrary, the rules of arithmetic are often quoted as examples of "absolute truth" even by most stubborn philosophers. It is taught that different catogeries (or units) cannot be added (operated, in general), but here it is the same catogery (units) ~ "heaps" of the very same fruit, normally used to explain (prove) "one plus one equals two" ~ alone is involved. And when you add two cubes of sugar into your tea 1 +1 = 0 is also correct.

OMG, Max, you're totally rocking that gangster look! 🤘😁

Nobody has the courage to simply say "I don't know!" So we are inundated with infinite conjecture all backed up by reference to their God of Physics, Mr E=anything I make up under his name.

Imagination - Process of Pure Creation The process of creation starts with thought - an idea, conception, visualization. Everything you see was once someone's idea. Nothing exists in your world that did not first exist as pure thought. This is true of the universe as well. Thought is the first level of creation. Next comes the word. Everything you say is a thought expressed. It is creative and sends forth creative energy into the universe. Words are more dynamic (thus, some might say more creative) than thought, because words are a different level of vibration from thought. They disrupt (change, alter, affect) the universe with greater impact. Words are the second level of creation. Next comes action. Actions are words moving. Words are thoughts expressed. Thoughts are ideas formed. Ideas are energies come together. Energies are forces released. Forces are elements existent. Elements are particles of God, portions of ALL, the stuff of everything. The beginning is God. The end is action. Action is God creating - or God experienced. Hang on. There's one thing more I have to tell you. You are always seeing what by your terms you would define as the "past," even when you are looking at what is right in front of you. I am? It is impossible to see The Present. The Present "happens," then turns into a burst of light, formed by energy dispersing, and that light reaches your receptors, your eyes, and it takes time for it to do that. All the while the light is reaching you, life is going on, moving forward. The next event is happening while the light from the last event is reaching you. The energy burst reaches your eyes, your receptors send that signal to your brain, which interprets the data and tells you what you are seeing. Yet that is not what is now in front of you at all. It is what you think you are seeing. That is, you are thinking about what you have seen, telling yourself what it is, and deciding what you are going to call it, while what is happening "now" is preceding your process, and awaiting it. To put this simply, I am always one step ahead of you. My God, this is unbelievable. Now listen. The more distance you place between your Self and the physical location of any event, the further into the "past" that event recedes. Place yourself a few light-years back, and what you are looking at happened very, very long ago, indeed. Yet it did not happen "long ago." It is merely physical distance which has created the illusion of "time," and allowed you to experience your Self as being both "here, now" all the while you are being "there, then"! One day you will see that what you call time and space are the same thing. Then you will see that everything is happening right here, right now. This is....this is....wild. I mean, I don't know what to make of all this. When you understand what I have told you, you will understand that nothing you see is real. You are seeing the image of what was once an event, yet even that image, that energy burst, is something you are interpreting. Your personal interpretation of that image is called your image-ination. And you can use your imagination to create anything. Because - and here is the greatest secret of all - your image-ination works both ways. Please? You not only interpret energy, you create it. Imagination is a function of your mind, which is one-third of your three-part being. In your mind you image something, and it begins to take physical form. The longer you image it (and the more OF you who image it), the more physical that form becomes, until the increasing energy you have given it literally bursts into light, flashing an image of itself into what you call your reality. You then "see" the image, and once again decide what it is. Thus, the cycle continues. This is what I have called The Process. This is what YOU ARE. You ARE this Process. This is what I have meant when I have said, you are both the Creator and the Created. I have now brought it all together for you. We are concluding this dialogue, and I have explained to you the mechanics of the universe, the secret of all life. Okay. Now as energy coalesced, it becomes, as I said, very concentrated. But the further one moves from the point of this concentration, the more dissipated the energy becomes. The "air becomes thinner." The aura fades. The energy never completely disappears, because it cannot. It is the stuff of which everything is made. It's All There Is. Yet it can become very, very thin, very subtle - almost "not there." Then, in another place (read that, another part of Itself) it can again coalesce, once more "clumping together" to form what you call matter, and what "looks like" a discreet unit. Now the two units appear separate from each other, and in truth there is no separation at all. This is, in very, very simple and elementary terms, the explanation behind the whole physical universe. Wow. But can it be true? How do I know I haven't just made this all up? Your scientists are already discovering that the building blocks of all of life are the same. They brought back rocks from the moon and found the same stuff they find in trees. They take apart a tree and find the same stuff they find in you. I tell you this: We are all the same stuff. (I and the Father are One Energy) We are the same energy, coalesced, compressed in different ways to create different forms and different matter. Nothing "matters" in and of itself. That is, nothing can become matter all by itself. Jesus said, "Without the Father, I am nothing." The Father of all is pure thought. This is the energy of life. This is what you have chosen to call Absolute Love. This is the God and the Goddess, the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. It is the All-in-All, the Unmoved Mover, the Prime Source. It is that which you have sought to understand from the beginning of time. The Great Mystery, the Endless Enigma, the Eternal Truth. There is only One of Us, and so, it is THAT WHICH YOU ARE.

7:02 Do you guys see how the universe is a series of dishes or bowls? See the impacts in space time? Empty black space is a liquid. It might not contain any atoms but it still has a value and a mode. It will act in a certain way.

what i get stuck in is: if the universe has a shape, even a shape we cant comprehend, what is the place that the shape is existing on?

To describe the fundamental structure of the universe as only mathematics seems close to the idea that we are a simulation. However if we are not a simulation, mathematics doesn't offer an explanation to consciousness.

Space is death and disease wrapped in darkness and silence. That is a great summary imho.

two thing can not be in one space at same time ?

He's trying to represent the paradigm of thought at the time the experiment was first done. You're always a negative comment on this channel. Why do you even subscribe and watch this channel? Just to leave immature narcissistic comments?

@@David.C.Velasquez No, that's just your conception. Max is a liar like you and the rest of these athiests clowns who know nothing

There's no reason to suppose in an infinite universe that nature hasn't tried every type of maths as a framework for a reality. I quite like the idea of evolutionary universes, each of which tries a particular framework of mathematics with an evolutionary tableau of natural 'constants', each in a dance between stability and dynamism

So the esoteric 'sacred geometry' is real in a sense ^^

As usual on KZread, there’s Dunning-Kruger effect in some of these comments. There is no way Tegmark could develop these ideas in a 14-minute video. Before criticizing them, may I recommend Tegmark’s book, The Mathematical Universe? I was a skeptic when I started it, but finished it convinced: Our universe is probably math.

Its big, thats for sure.

The Universe is wider than our view of it... ~Henry

Perhaps consciousness mirrors the universe and beyond, and maybe we should look inside for the answer.

Close your eyes, Go inside. Wittness your counsiousness. Where does it end? You are endless, same as existens it self😊

Before you can tell the age of the universe you have to change your paradigm of what the living things are as stars and galaxies live and die.

The problem here is you can’t understand how big it is because size is a reference. Infinity cannot be comprehended by the human mind, which is a finite organic organism.

If the universe is infinite, then at what finite point in time since the big bang did it become infinite?

The conundrums. I think many of us have asked that 4 year old' s question and tried to conceptualize the conundrums.

There’s lots of us that have been in the multi-verse. With a discovery of quantum entanglement the word universe does not apply anymore. It’s multi-verse.

How come I always have to live in the universe where I never win the lottery?

The Earth isn’t even the equivalent of a grain of sand on the seashore,as opposed to the rest of the Universe. It’s mind boggling,to say the least.

When we say "Reality, all there is", size is meaningless. Where there is one, thus incomparability, dimensionlessness must be admitted. Relative size cannot be characteristic of all.

Well, You better ask the Perspective-Principle, compare to What ?

What is reality?

Max has a similar sounding accent to Christopher Lambert from Highlander.

The universe is no more math than it is Leonardo d Vinci's art.
