Humanity: *stops to look at itself for a second* Also humanity: "what am i even doing man?"

Probably one of the most counterintuitive properties of memes is how pairs of memes that encourage negative emotions toward the other are actually highly cooperative with each other. While they're effectively mutually exclusive in that it's hard to truly accept both at once, the memes themselves basically rely on each other to spur the emotions that allow themselves to spread. As an example, while people of one political party may heavily disagree with the people and decisions of the opposing party, the parties themselves _as memes_ _rely_ on each other in order to survive and maintain a stable number of people who subscribe to each side. Nobody would care about their own party if there was no opposition. To quote CGP Grey's video on the topic: "One is like a field of flowers and the other a flock of butterflies."

Also worth reading, "Sort By Controversial" (it is fiction) > We trained a network to predict upvotes of Reddit posts based on their titles. Any predictive network doubles as a generative network. If you teach a neural net to recognize dogs, you can run it in reverse to get dog pictures. If you train a network to predict Reddit upvotes, you can run it in reverse to generate titles it predicts will be highly upvoted. We tried this and it was pretty funny. I don’t remember the exact wording, but for /r/politics it was something like “Donald Trump is no longer the president. All transgender people are the president.” For r/technology it was about Elon Musk saving Net Neutrality. You can also generate titles that will get maximum downvotes, but this is boring: it will just say things that sound like spam about penis pills. > Reddit has a feature where you can sort posts by controversial. You can see the algorithm here, but tl;dr it multiplies magnitude of total votes (upvotes + downvotes) by balance (upvote:downvote ratio or vice versa, whichever is smaller) to highlight posts that provoke disagreement. Controversy sells, so we trained our network to predict this too. > The Japanese tested their bioweapons on Chinese prisoners. The Tuskegee Institute tested syphilis on African-Americans. We were either nicer or dumber than they were, because we tested Shiri’s Scissor on ourselves. We had a private internal subreddit where we discussed company business, because Brad wanted all of us to get familiar with the platform. Shiri’s problem was that she’d been testing the controversy-network on our subreddit, and it would just spit out vacuously true or vacuously false statements. No controversy, no room for disagreement. > The statement we were looking at that day was about a design choice in our code. I won’t tell you the specifics, but imagine you took every bad and wrong decision decision in the world, hard-coded them in the ugliest possible way, and then handed it to the end user with a big middle finger. Shiri’s Scissor spit out, as maximally controversial, the statement that we should design our product that way. We’d spent ten minutes arguing about exactly where the bug was, when Shiri said something about how she didn’t understand why the program was generating obviously true statements. > Shiri’s English wasn’t great, so I thought this was a communication problem. I corrected her. The program was spitting out obviously false statements. She stuck to her guns. I still thought she was confused. I walked her through the meanings of the English words “true” and “false”. She looked offended. I tried to confirm. She thought this abysmal programming decision, this plan of combining every bad design technique together and making it impossible to ever fix, was the right way to build our codebase? She said it was. Worse, she was confused I didn’t think so. She thought this was more or less what we were already doing; it wasn’t. She thought that moving away from this would take a total rewrite and make the code much worse. > Brad was our founder. Don’t trust the newspapers - not every tech entrepreneur is a greedy antisocial philistine. But everyone in advertising is. Brad definitely was. He was an abrasive amoral son of a bitch. But he was good at charming investors, and he could code, which is more than some bosses. He looked pissed to have the whole coding team come into his office unannounced, but he heard us out. (...) This part of the story ends at 8 PM with Brad firing David and Shiri for a combination of gross incompetence, gross insubordination, and being terrible human beings. (...) That was 8 PM. We’d been standing in Brad’s office fighting for five hours. At 8:01, after David and Shiri had stormed out, we all looked at each other and thought - holy shit, the controversial filter works. > I want to repeat that. At no time in our five hours of arguing did this occur to us. We were too focused on the issue at hand, the Scissor statement itself. We didn’t have the perspective to step back and think about how all this controversy came from a statement designed to be maximally controversial. But at 8:01, when the argument was over and we had won, we stepped back and thought - holy shit. -------------------- > If you just read a Scissor statement off a list, it’s harmless. It just seems like a trivially true or trivially false thing. It doesn’t activate until you start discussing it with somebody. At first you just think they’re an imbecile. Then they call you an imbecile, and you want to defend yourself. Crescit eundo. You notice all the little ways they’re lying to you and themselves and their audience every time they open their mouth to defend their imbecilic opinion. Then you notice how all the lies are connected, that in order to keep getting the little things like the Scissor statement wrong, they have to drag in everything else. > Eventually even that doesn’t work, they’ve just got to make everybody hate you so that nobody will even listen to your argument no matter how obviously true it is. Finally, they don’t care about the Scissor statement anymore. They’ve just dug themselves so deep basing their whole existence around hating you and wanting you to fail that they can’t walk it back. You’ve got to prove them wrong, not because you care about the Scissor statement either, but because otherwise they’ll do anything to poison people against you, make it impossible for them to even understand the argument for why you deserve to exist. You know this is true. > Your mind becomes a constant loop of arguments you can use to defend yourself, and rehearsals of arguments for why their attacks are cruel and unfair, and the one burning question: how can you thwart them? How can you convince people not to listen to them, before they find those people and exploit their biases and turn them against you? How can you combat the superficial arguments they’re deploying, before otherwise good people get convinced, so convinced their mind will be made up and they can never be unconvinced again? How can you keep yourself safe? (...) > I know I should be talking about how we all need to unite against whatever shadowy manipulators keep throwing Scissor statements at us. I want to talk about how we need to cultivate radical compassion and charity as the only defense against such abominations. I want to give an Obamaesque speech about how the ties that bring us together are stronger than the forces tearing us apart. But I can’t. (...)I thought about the third-highest-ranked Scissor statement in enough detail to let it trigger. To even begin to question whether it might be true is so sick, so perverse, so hateful and disgusting, that Idi Amin would flush with shame to even contemplate it. And if the Scissor’s right then half of you would be gung ho in support. > You guys, who haven’t heard a really bad Scissor statement yet and don’t know what it’s like - it’s easy for you to say “don’t let it manipulate you” or “we need a hard and fast policy of not letting ourselves fight over Scissor statements”. But how do you know you’re not in the wrong? How do you know there’s not an issue out there where, if you knew it, you would agree it would be better to just nuke the world and let us start over again from the sewer mutants, rather than let the sort of people who would support it continue to pollute the world with their presence? > How do you know that you’re not like the schoolkid who superciliously says “Nothing is bad enough to deserve a swear word” when the worst that’s ever happened to her is dropping her lollipop in the dirt. If that schoolkid gets kidnapped and tortured, does she change her mind? If she can’t describe the torture to her schoolmates, but just says “a really bad thing happened to me”, and they still insist nothing could be bad enough to justify using swear words, who do you side with? Then why are you still thinking I’m “damaged” when I tell you I’ve seen the Scissor statement, and charity and compassion and unity can f--- off and die? Some last remnant of outside-view morality keeps me from writing the whole list here and letting you all exterminate yourselves. Some remnant of how I would have thought about these things a month ago holds me back. So listen: > Delete Facebook. Delete Twitter. Throw away your cell phone. Unsubscribe from the newspaper. Tell your friends and relatives not to discuss politics or society. If they slip up, break off all contact. Then, buy canned food. Stockpile water. Learn to shoot a gun. If you can afford a bunker, get a bunker. Because one day, whoever keeps feeding us Scissor statements is going to release one of the bad ones.

This video is sublime. Super underrated channel. You deserve much more.

Your KZread channel is incredibly cool. I have had ideas about this subject and similar ones on your channel for a while now. I even found your channel because I was considering using your name for a KZread channel name, "emergent", and I was seeing if the name was taken. I feel like these ideas are so insightful. They help us explain and understand the origin and spread of many things that influence our lives. They encourage us to be more introspective, self-critical, and insightful into the nature of all pseudo-living things. Excellent work.

8:00 To add onto this, if we ignore the human conscious, it can then be said that it’s not the human that is remixing the memes. It’s the memes gaining control to the local infrastructure (like the brain itself), and commands processing power to obtain useful parts from other local memes, breeding a more powerful next generation. In a way, I think memes can also experience some degree of “Darwinism revolution” within a single human brain. As in, an artist thinking about a few different potential paths that stem from an idea, and deciding one path to pursuit and make the meme. In a way, this is the meme that survived the Darwinism that happened locally.

you have one of the most underrated channel , I'm happy i found this channel

I'm just here to say I found this channel because one of your videos was linked off of 3Blue1Brown's channel and I decided to subscribe. I found 3Blue1Brown's channel because they did a video about Wordle and I was impressed with their approach towards the topic and subscribed to their channel. I found that video because I was playing Wordle and a friend of mine on Facebook posted the video to their feed and I saw it. I started playing Wordle because other people I knew were playing Wordle and I decided it was fun and began to play it for a time until I eventually got bored. I think that gets us to the root level of this meme, for me at least.

All praise the meme video. This needs more views than it has 🔥🔥

9:57 I think we need to look at this the same way we would genetics, much like a genome you can also have memome let's say in this instance memes are individual peices of an entire memetic structure. So one meme in this memome is baking , another is Shrek shaped food, but in this case it's an entire memetic structure made up of several individual memes.They remind me a lot of language models used by neural networks.

"Wait, it's all memes?" 🌎🧑‍🚀🔫🧑‍🚀 "Always has been."

I do feel like the concept of “memes” itself is a really excellently demonstrated example of “in extinction it lives on”. Like, the concept of “internet memes” clearly have overwritten the original meaning, and now you often need to use “genetical memes” or “memetical genes” to describe it. Yet within death, it’s able to achieve a kind of spreading that Richard Dawkins probably never thought possible. It’s still a somewhat niche idea, but I feel like at least 10% or 5% of the whole world’s population understands this “ideas as a life form” concept to some degree. Yeah, it all feels really Death Stranding. As in, “It’s not a tragedy, extinction is not the end, it’s an opportunity for a new beginning”.

incredible video!

I'd argue that memes are just a form of information and they are the actual subjects of all kinds of evolution, but they cannot self-replicate, like you say. Information must be instantiated in physical form in order to exist, and if that physical form can replicate, then the information will spread. The physical form need not be a self-contained sequence of data like DNA, or an ion cascade in a brain, but if there is physical infrastructure to support it, may even be distributed globally. The memes that were initially instantiated as DNA found it useful to build the physical infrastructure of the brain, and new memes were instantiated in this new environment which have now outpaced genetic evolution entirely. These new memes also find it useful to build technology which can carry information, another new environment where new memes are being born and which may one day outpace our cultural evolution.

10:20 Talking about “unfalsifiable”, I do think this is one aspect that makes the whole thing a bit… not science? As in, it’s starting to be a bit “pseudoscientific”. However, I do really wish we as a society can invent a new word for this. Like, non scientific mostly philosophical thinking systems that aren’t trying to pretend to be science. I feel like with the recent development in AI research and society’s deeper understandings of those types of complex questions (e.g. systems theory, emergency theory, intelligence rising from chaos theory, etc), in the future we will need to start embracing those “pseudo scientific” non-science fields. Anyway, it’s just something that tilted me a bit, when I tried looking up “Yin Yang” and Wikipedia described it as “a pseudo science”. Like, the statement isn’t wrong, but the study is fundamentally about “let’s do Darwinism without doing science!” As in, dividing attributes into Yin and Yang, with Yang being the urge for change to happen, and Yin being the urge to deny change. In Darwinism terms, Yin is the aspects that maintains the copy to be the same, while Yang encourages mutation and changes to happen. Thus, without Yin, a system cannot keep maintaining itself and will quickly collapse. Yet without Yang, the system cannot adapt to any environmental changes, thus cannot be considered even alive.

I actually started to hum that catchy song out loud

"These violent delights have violent ends"

I think some genes are reactive to memes , people who have vulnerability have more reactive to memes to hide their vulnerability , they use memes as a means to spread the vulnerability as it's normal.
