Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | That was done here in this building. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:11.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Isn't that weird? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:13.220 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | And I'm, I'm truly speaking with a revolutionary and a radical, uh, no, no, no, no, no, no, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:14.220 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | no, no, no, no, no, no. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:19.220 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | At an intellectual level, I am absolutely garden variety. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:20.220 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | I'm just straight down the middle. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:25.220 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | The system that we are in this, this university is functionally insane. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:27.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Yeah. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:33.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Harvard is functionally insane and we don't understand that when we get these things wrong, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:34.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | the financial crisis made this very clear. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:41.140 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | There was a long period where every grownup, everybody with a tie, uh, who spoke in a, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:43.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | you know, in Barrett, baritone tones, uh, with, with the right degree at the end of | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:49.340 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | their name. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:54.820 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Yeah. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:55.820 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Uh, we're talking about how we banished volunteer volatility. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:56.820 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | We were in the great moderation. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:54:59.420 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Okay. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:01.100 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | They were all crazy. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:02.260 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | And who was, who was right? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:04.100 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | It was like Nassim Taleb, Nouriel Roubini. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:05.100 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Now what happens is, is that they claimed the market went crazy, but the market didn't | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:08.460 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | go crazy. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:13.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | The market had been crazy and what happened is, is that it suddenly went sane. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:14.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Well, that's where we are with academics. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:18.620 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Academics right now is mad as a hatter and it's, it's absolutely evident. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:21.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | I can show you graph after graph. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:25.500 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | I can show you the internal discussions. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:27.000 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | I can show you the conspiracies. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:28.500 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Barrett's dealing with one right now over, uh, it's admissions policies for people, uh, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:30.900 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | of color, uh, who happened to come from Asia. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:35.380 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | All of this madness is necessary to keep the game going. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:38.300 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | What we're talking about just on, well, we're on the topic of revolutionaries is we're talking | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:41.420 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | about the danger of an outbreak of sanity. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:46.940 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Yeah. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:50.060 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | You're, you're the guy pointing out the elephant in the room here and the elephant has no clothes. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:51.060 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Is that how that goes? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:57.020 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | I was going to talk a little bit to, uh, Joe Rogan about this, ran out of time, but I think | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:55:59.540 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | you're, you have some, you, just listening to you, you could probably speak really eloquently | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:07.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | to academia on the difference between the different fields. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:13.420 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | So you think there's a difference between science, engineering, and then the humanities | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:16.580 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | in academia in terms of tolerance that they're willing to tolerate? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:21.740 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | So from my perspective, I thought computer science and maybe engineering is more tolerant | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:25.940 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | to radical ideas, but that's perhaps innocent of me is that I always, you know, all the | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:33.020 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | battles going on now are a little bit more on the humanity side and gender studies and | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:38.580 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | so on. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:42.380 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Have you seen the, uh, American mathematical society's publication of an essay called get | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:43.380 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | out the way? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:48.140 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | I have not. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:49.140 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | What's, what's the idea is that white men who hold, uh, positions. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:50.140 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Yeah. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:55.100 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Within universities and mathematics should vacate their positions so that young black | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:56:56.540 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | women can take over something like this. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:01.300 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | That's in terms of diversity, which I also want to ask you about, but in terms of diversity | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:04.020 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | of strictly ideas, do you think, cause you're basically saying physics as a community has | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:07.240 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | become a little bit intolerant to some degree to new radical ideas, or at least you, uh, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:14.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | you said it's changed a little bit recently, which is that even string theory is now admitting, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:21.460 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | okay, we don't look very promising in the short term, right? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:26.940 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | So the question is what compiles if you want to take the computer science metaphor, what | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:32.960 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | will get you into a journal? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:39.860 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Will you spend your life trying to push some paper into a journal or will it be accepted | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:42.060 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | easily? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:47.060 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | What about the characteristics of the submitter and what gets taken up and what does not? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:48.060 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | All of these fields are experiencing pressure because no field is performing so brilliantly | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:57:56.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | well, um, that it's revolutionizing our way of speaking and thinking in the ways in which | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:01.780 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | we've become accustomed. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:11.320 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | But don't you think even in theoretical physics, a lot of times, even with theories like string | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:12.900 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | theory, you could speak to this, it does eventually lead to what are the ways that this theory | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:19.340 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | would be testable. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:24.180 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Yeah, ultimately, although look, there's this thing about popper and the scientific method | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:25.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | that's a cancer and a disease and the minds of very smart people. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:31.960 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | That's not really how most of the stuff gets worked out. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:36.400 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | It's how it gets checked. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:39.860 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | All right, so, and there is a dialogue between theory and experiment, but everybody should | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:41.340 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | read Paul directs 1963 American scientific American article where he, he, you know, it's | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:47.380 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | very interesting. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:56.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | He talks about it as if it was about the Schrodinger equation and Schrodinger's failure to advance | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:58:57.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | his own work because of his failure to account for some phenomenon. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:03.160 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | The key point is that if your theory is a slight bit off, it won't agree with experiment, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:06.340 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | but it doesn't mean that the theory is actually wrong. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:10.400 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Um, but direct could as easily have been talking about his own equation in which he predicted | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:12.940 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | that the electrons should have an antiparticle. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:18.700 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | And since the only positively charged particle that was known at the time was the proton, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:22.460 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Heisenberg pointed out, well, shouldn't your antiparticle, the proton have the same mass | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:26.820 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | as the electron and doesn't that invalidate your theory? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:30.780 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | So I think the direct was actually being quite potentially quite sneaky, um, and, uh, talking | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:33.660 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | about the fact that he had been pushed off of his own theory to some extent by Heisenberg. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:38.860 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Um, but look, we've fetishized the scientific method and popper and falsification, um, because | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:42.980 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | it protects us from crazy ideas entering the field. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:51.580 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | So you know, it's a question of balancing type one and type two error. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:55.580 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | And we're pretty, we were pretty maxed out in one direction. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#00:59:58.420 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | The opposite of that, let me say what comforts me sort of biology or engineering, uh, at | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:01.560 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | the end of the day, does the thing work? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:08.020 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Yeah. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:10.860 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | You can test the crazies away and the crazy. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:11.860 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Well see now you're saying, but some ideas are truly crazy and some are, are actually | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:15.580 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | correct. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:19.700 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | So, well there's pre correct currently crazy. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:20.700 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Yeah. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:24.140 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | Right. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:25.140 |
Eric Weinstein: Revolutionary Ideas in Science, Math, and Society | Lex Fridman Podcast #16 | And so you don't want to get rid of everybody who's pre correct and currently crazy. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0016-large.html#01:00:26.140 |
