CTTT is the show that doesn't just blast out the current accepted explanation promoting the scientist that is presently popular. Bob Kuhn has questions that we all want to ask but don't have access to the many learned people he has. Many of the shows required me to watch two or three times just to make sure I wasn't hearing things. That's because many postulated ideas are right out there on the most insightful leading edges. He's not confined to one mindset or topic having a wide variety of disciplines discussed. Thanks Robert!

"What do I mean by mean?" This is such an interesting remark, and it highlights an idea. Is language a limiting factor in our scientific endeavor to understand the Cosmos? If we had a vocabulary of 100 words in the English language, we would be able to communicate, but it would be very limited. It would mean that we had only identified 100 things to put words to, and there are many more than 100 things in the Cosmos, let alone the need for words that aren't nouns, but are critical to language. We certainly wouldn't be able to do science with only a 100 words. If we had a 1,000 words in the English language, then the same would apply. We might not even yet have the word 'infinity', so how could we even conceptualize 'infinity'. There are an estimated 170,000 words in the English language, but who's to say that this is even enough. Do we, for example, have enough words to describe, and understand, all the different types of snow. Other languages have more, so maybe we don't. Robert later says... "Perhaps, the universe was always infinite, whatever that may mean, or perhaps the universe became infinite over time, but could something finite become infinite?". This again, 'might' suggest that our words are letting us down. We have a specific definition for the words 'finite' and 'infinite', but maybe the Cosmos doesn't abide by the lexical rules of our language, and for words that were coined long before we had truly come to understand the enormity of what we might one day need to apply them to, scientific exactness. Interestingly, a synonym for 'infinite', is 'cosmos', one definition being 'inconceivably vast'. Other related synonyms are 'impenetrable' and 'unfathomable'. These all highlight, not necessarily a limit in understanding, but rather that we simply don't have the correct words to conceptualize the nature of the universe. The words 'finite' and 'infinite' are simply not precise enough, not good enough, not scientific enough, to describe what it is that we are trying to understand. Just thoughts...

Amazing vid. Left me with some thoughts/questions. Aguirre's infinity was the divisible infinity, something Caroll mentioned too, where you can divide and divide forever. So as Aguirre says if we look at it that way then this 'bubble' universe is already infinite. My question then: In my hand exists infinity. Is it safe for me to assume there are no copies of me in the infinite space inside my hand? I would say yes, as a copy of me would need to be my size at least, and therefore any copy (even if it did exist) would be disqualified from being my copy. We can then say there are different kinds of infinity, many of which do not contain all possibilities. Atoms would also need to rearrange themselves to be my copy, on the smallest of scales we would have no atoms to form copies. So we can indeed conceive of an infinity (space and even time) where just because we have an infinity does not mean every possibility could/SHOULD occur, there are indeed limitations. If this is the case then, how do we reconcile this with a universe infinite in an outward sense? I think the concept of a 'boundary' in time/space is a human notion. And as much as I hate the idea, I think that the Universe is indeed infinte, but as with the infinity of my hand - somehow, infinite spacetime does not necessarily have everything - everything in this case being exact copies of entitities/instances. I think that's more easily digestable than infinite copies of me, that sounds ridiculous, that's even before we deal with the 'measure problem'.

After you put so many zeros before or after the decimal point, my puny human brain can't handle it.

Only Eternity can fully embrace Infinity.

Another simpler way to deal with infinity, is to say that you do have a beginning, which would be 1 reference point but have never reached the other reference point, which would be the end. Infinity refers to an incomplete process, but by no means, means there isn't an end. Infinity simply cannot exist. If anything has a beginning, it must have an end, or the beginning itself doesn't exist. One cannot exist without the other. Likewise if something has an end, it has to have a beginning, or else the end by itself makes no sense at all, and that's simply because both of them define each other and makes it possible that they exist. Something viewed as infinite really means that the beginning is the end, and the end is the beginning, which is a situation that cannot exist, or if it did nothing would exist. The same thing applies to eternity. Also numbers. When they say there cannot exist a largest number simply from fact that if you add 1 to it, it no longer is the largest number, means that there is no infinitely large number and one cannot exist is because at the very minimum, the only largest number that exists is the number 1. Every other number is a multiple of 1,and as long as 1 exists, no other number can be larger than it is, since it is itself repeated over and over

An infinite universe. It sure puts things in perspective.

Many world's interpretation should have it's place in this topic.

Finite is simply a definition of confinement

"I'M ALREADY...GETTING...DIZZAY"

Here is my take on it as I contemplated the universe as a teenager. By its very nature space is infinite, because it is nothing. Nothing goes on forever. It can never end. If it does end at a wall, well that wall is encroaching in space. There will be nothing on the other side. Mater, by its very nature, is finite. It cannot exist without empty space to be in. Mater needs empty space, which is nothing so to speak, where it exists. There cannot be mater without space, or nothing. Mater needs space but nothing does not need mater. Space cannot be destroyed because it is nothing. It is also infinite. Nothing cannot be destroyed because there is nothing there to be destroyed. You can also call it ether or time as cosmologists have done. They have also speculated that ultimate power dwells in it. It is eternal and infinite. Cannot be destroyed. Has not been created. Can withdraw itself to create mater. Some have called nothing God. What do you think?

@andrekoscianski

Liked the thought. But, space confuses/disturbs me. How is it, that space exists - even if it is nothing? Nothingness seems easier to deal with - in the sense that there should be nothing at all; than the fact that I can move, walk, through space, which is 'made of nothing'. Well, it is like considering our own existence, it is almost painful to think about it. Wasting time with a game, or concentrating on everyday tasks as doing the dishes, or pretending to find meaning in things as 'pursuing good', alleviates the pressure. Maybe it is still out of reach and we need another 10 thousand years of brain improvement, maybe it is under the nose, or those who really know cannot point to it in any viable way.

You're on the right track. I have a similar story and reached a similar conclusion as you. It makes way more sense than some of the stories they spin about infinity and infinite number of versions of me. Sometimes philosophy goes down a rabbit hole trying to explain things and gets lost.

Trying to understand eternity whether it's time or space is a fools errand. I believe there's an end to matter but no end to nothingness.

By definition, if there is no finality, there can be no beginning

Thanks Robert it’s mind boggling . It seems the big questions are unanswerable at least until we humans have complete unification and have the entire population asking the same question all at the same time . Solutions will appear and then work on the next big question

Time doesn't physically exist. We are not sure if it's passing. We have just assumed it to be moving forward, maybe it's moving backwards and the big bang was actually a big crunch. I think our existence and the universe's reason is the field I would love to work upon. *ITS AMAZING* 😵😵

My favorite episode so far!!

This question to me was always infinitely more troubling than the question of why there is something rather than nothing, which has an anthropic interpretation.

The whole cosmos is bounded by space, time and causation. So, it is infinite in time but finite in space-time like waves of an ocean. As long as we have physical body and mind we can never perceive which is beyond space, time and causation. The absolute truth is beyond any type of dimension or dimensions but supporter of everything. It is really miracle.

A definite meaning would be difficult to produce for an indefinite cosmos!

Because of this channel, it's make me see and think outside of my bilieve

im pissed that no one mentioned Roger Penrose's Conformal Cyclic Cosmos Theory

Mr.Kuhn standing by a giant telescope: "I want to know now how to deep dive into reality of space and time". He goes into some hotel, full of weird people drinking wine and talking about stuff.

Between now and one second from now, there is an infinite set of instants. If you consider a tiny portion of that second, you can always divide it in half, and that will never end. It's infinite but... it's already gone. We can't perceive infinity adequately, it doesn't make sense in our minds, but it's there nonetheless. And if infinity exists, the universe doesn't need a beginning. Its existence can go back to infinity.

I enjoyed the conversation between Kuhn and Rees - especially when the latter said "whatever our preferences are we should accept that we just don't know" .... "remember that our preferences count for nothing and we must accept the universe as it is" - I became concerned when Kuhn was interviewing Aguirre and the latter said "you will agree" (why ? - this cannot be matter of fact) and "but its true" (when there is no evidence to support what he speaks about)

It’s interesting to me that unbiased science is the obvious sub-message here and that our own preferences should be (no matter how rational we think they are or otherwise) put aside for the truth that science is supposed to give us. If only mainstream scientists would do this more often. I’ve seen a great deal of evidence for the propagation of many things outside, or just outside the mainstream scientific view that are immediately rejected with great prejudice. Not because of conflicting theories, or evidence for the counter, but just because “it just can’t be true”. Is a scientist not supposed to be an explorer? Daring to question and explore all possibilities. I appreciate this channel because it does just that, and though some bias is implied, it’s never taken as more important than the truth it journeys to uncover!

This maybe the best concept of infinity Ive heard (also it Independently coincides with what I believe although stated much better). 8:34

Infinite possibilities!

This idea that in an infinite cosmos everything that is possible happens is a common misconception. First of all, you have to add the qualifier „eventually“, i.e., at some point. But second of all, you have to go to the more technical statement „the chance of something that is possible to eventually happen is 1.“ Here’s the important difference: if you throw a dart on a idealized dart board, hitting any particular point has probability 0. But of course, you may hit some point! Even though the chance of that not happening is 1 at any given time. Just because the probability of something is 0 or 1 doesn’t mean it cannot or will eventually happen. Also note that theorems that derive probability 0 or 1 rely on important assumptions on independence of events. Say you have a stochastic process that iterates through even numbers if a coin toss at the beginning is heads, and through off numbers otherwise. Then, reaching any particular number is a priori possible. However, after the coin is tossed, a lot of numbers become forever unreachable. That is because the events depend on each other in a particular way.

Numbers provide the perfect example. No matter the number, it can increase

I was enthralled

A big part of the challenge is that we cannot comprehend infinite or final (end)

Thanks for so many great interviews. You ponder the questions many of us have. It's disturbing to think slightly different versions of ourselves might commit atrocities.

Of all the abstract ideas, the concept of infinity is, by far, the least well understood. Beginning in grade school, we are all taught that infinity is “not a number”, however, the general tendency is to simply think of it as a really, really big number. This common misconception leads us to erroneously ask such questions as “Is the universe infinite?” The best way to dispel this misconception is to think of infinity as something that is incomplete or unfinished and is eternally so. However, to actually be something is to be necessarily complete. For example, an airplane is only truly an airplane when each of its essential components are present and assembled in the appropriate manner. Prior to this, whatever things exist (components, assemblies, etc.) are merely in the process of becoming an airplane. Likewise, the sum total of all that there is ( the Universe) must necessarily be complete (finite), at least in so far as it exists at any given time. In other words, there are no actual infinities, only potential ones. A better wording of the question might have been “Is the Universe unlimited or unbounded?”

@dlevi67

3 жыл бұрын

The problem is that unlimited or unbounded are not the same as infinite (certainly not mathematically). The surface of a sphere or a torus is unlimited, but it's finite.

Regarding the segment at the end about morals; you can have different sizes of infinities. So if we start with 50/50 on good/bad choices morally, but progress to 60/40, that would be a bigger infinity for good. The goal would be to keep progressing and creating a bigger difference in the ratios.
