Hey Lex, thanks for being you and doing what you do. I'm a 22 y/o and you're a huge role model for me. Just want you to know there are people out here who really look up to your curiosity, gratitude, and humility.
He's not going to answer you just because you suck up like that. I doubt he even reads past the first couple of comments, right Lex? ...I said, "right Lex"? ... "Lex?" " I am humble and curious, answer me God damn you.".
I love the way Sara articulates her answers so quickly and efficiently. She is easily as smart as she needs to be but never speaks in riddles or over complicates anything, just quick, simple, to the point and ready for the next question. You were both a pleasure to listen to. Thanks 👌
I love how you can just click on any random episode without knowing what it's about or knowing anything about the guest and it's always such interesting conversations, not just about their field of expertise but everything else that comes up. Just love to see how peoples minds work and what their thoughts are on random things.
She's certainly a deep thinker but she's a bad interviewee, talks too fast, bad at explaining things, too much information within a timeframe, not funny at all, but great overall she is
One of the best podcasts ever. I love how excited she is sharing her ideas. Often intelligent people are bursting with ideas to share but few understand them. I feel that. A need for a proper audience
From an engineering background, this has been one of the most eye-opening episodes I have ever heard. My perspectives with regard to the natural sciences have been fundamentally altered.
Lex, please have her again, she was a brilliant guest and I'm going to listen to the whole thing again because there were so many rich and brilliant ideas
Her explanation of certain topics had me wishing I was at home burning some cannabis instead of at work stocking the shelves with detergent and household chemicals 👽
I used to just hang out, unenrolled at various collage/university libraries, or just on the grounds, chatting with students who were enrolled in various subjects, and some professors would either just allow me to sit in class, or not even know that I was not a formal student. This was some great fun and a lot of freedom to meet people from many backgrounds and varying modes of thought. If you start reading whatever interests you, and you insert yourself, you may find it easier that you think to meet the people and have the discussions that you want.
People of this caliber 'in real life' as you call it are extremely rare and not visible to you. The internet made this world one giant village were every extraordinary human being is living next door but thats simply not the case.
oh my god... astrobiologist is what i'm studying for after years of physics, i've watched 15 minutes and am already in awe this woman is incredible i love her general attitute and what brain lol
I love that they're talking about ideas... Instead of pushing a bias opinion or belief right from the beginning. This is how personal growth starts and continues. 💚
Her ability to clearly articulate this topic in a clear and concise way shows how intelligent she is and how well she knows her stuff. Their banter back and forth was refreshing to see and listen too. She was willing to talk about any topic that Lex wanted to discuss and she didn't walk around a question because they didn't know how to answer it. This was highly entertaining and refreshing.
But she falls down on the subject of ‘free will’ which is impossible. Look up (Robert Sapolsky) on Free will, possibly the cleverest person I’ve ever heard. You will be blown away..
They aren’t aware of the largest theoretical breakthrough in evolutionary biology in past few decades so the whole discussion is a bit cringe. They should read “The Revolutionary Phenotype” and then redo this discussion.
@@ika5666 I am referring to the explanatory framework of genetic layers and how this explains that the phenotype takes over and becomes the replicator. This theory explains how DNA took over after RNA, and how RNA took over after protein chains ETC. It is the next leap of knowledge that will let scientists know exactly where to look instead ow wander in the darkness hen it comes to research about the origin of life.
This was a fantastic talk! We are super lucky to have these super impressive, multi-faceted and open minded scientists like Sara that work on the deepest of questions!
Sara seems to be the kind of person which brings the good mood to the room while being opposite of simple and naive. Lex unearths some fascinating people to listen and see...
Watching late, but this is a phenomenol interview. It's refreshing to hear someone speak so eloquently around "Life". I love how much of what she thinks relates to scaling of architecture. Everything I see says she's correct in her approach and should be very much listened to.
This researcher is a genius. She ties together seemingly unrelated topics, shows how they are related and has an impressive knowledge of different fields. She is someone you would want to have at your dinner party. I’m glad people like this exist.
What a beautiful communicator and new theories on life in the Universe. So refreshing and so much better than others you had on recently. Sara is solid!!!
I listen to this on repeat even though it's like listening to another language .... She and he are able to articulate these topics so a recovering addict like myself can begin to understand thank you Lex and Sara for bringing these topics to 'reality' for us.
I love it how Sara thinks about how important it is to ask the right questions to get to the core of what life is. That it even might be the wrong question to ask What is life?
The following is my comment under Lex Fridman's conversation with Sara Walker. It is written a few days before the activation of Skynet. Be safe and be brave guys.
When lex is talking I feel like I'm watching on half speed. When she's talking it seems like I'm watching on 2x! Both are clearly brilliant however. Fascinating convo.
@@dahleno2014 One thing I wish native speakers of English would realize once and for all, is the fact that the Internet speaks to the whole world. Bearing that in mind would be the start of some respect for the millions abroad who put 1000s of hours into learning English as a second language. And yes, sometimes, they struggle to understand highly interesting content delivered with poor speech control.
@Estarossa I wasn't speaking about her particularly, but in general (I did say "yes, sometimes, etc.") - although some aspects of what I said could apply to her as well. You have the luxury of not having to work (much) on what has become the international language; now's the time to realize that. Just my opinion. I could also ask you if you've ever learned a second language, and whether you know what I'm talking about, but I feel that would be rather useless.
I think part of that is English is not his native language. Still, there is no question that he is an intelligent and articulate man. Great podcast, great conversation.
Thanks! I appreciate your pod cast, your views on so many important subjects humans are up against. To Your guests, my appreciation goes out to you individuals.
Considering our understanding of the Universe and the laws that govern it can really only be described as still being in it's infancy, this shouldn't come as a surprise. Relatively speaking, we've only just barely stepped out of the cave and started stacking rocks as a species. Anyone who thinks humans have anything reliably figured out, with any degree of immutable certainty, is guilty of hubris.
almost 200 episodes already Lex doing work....dont slow down! I legit enjoy the hell outta this podcast, it brings me so much insight on things I have no flippin idea about haha. 1
I love you Lex. Please continue to be the beautiful inquisitive, humble existence that you seem to be. Or not lol. Just being authentic to the evolving situation of your life is enough. Much respect and gratitude for what you've shared so far ❤️👍
While I enjoyed the talk - I couldn't stop noticing a "romantic spark" between these good people. Was it only me? I also think there should be Thomas Metzinger here too - to add some more philosophical spice to this discussion...
I noticed this while listening to the podcast which is why I came here to watch. While only listening, I couldn't help but notice 2 beautiful inquisitive minds that stimulated each other.
Oh my goodness! Sarah is brilliant and multifaceted like no diamond before. Thank you Sarah and Lex for this opportunity to become more enlightened by simple articulation about deep esoteric insights! Kudos to both, Otto
I wish more people could here this, you're such an inspiration! Also thank you for bringing these topics to our attention. It really opens up new perspectives towards our outlooks on life
A physical law, scientific law, or a law of nature is a scientific generalization based on empirical observations of physical behavior. They are typically conclusions based on repeated scientific experiments over many years, and which have become accepted universally by scientist because our collective consciousness agreed on certain physical law that made sense to most physicist society so it became the law . are we creating or discovering physical laws ?
@@janakiapesova3128 One could say that everything already exists. It's just up to us to make these metaphysical things tangible enough so that we can play with them and integrate them into our toolbox of knowledge.
She's brilliant. Her articulated glimpses into the profoundly complex probabilities seen through limited experience, her explanations relate well to my own ruminations.
Loved this conversation. It's wonderful that Sara is not an outcast for exploring these complex questions in these "hard to communicate" directions. One day Rupert Sheldrake will be acknowledged for his intimations about life.
I appreciate the candor, honesty and humility that's apparent here. The origin of life still seems to be miraculous. The idea of a self-replicating, hydrolyzable polymer spontaneously forming in boiling (or nearly boiling) water is ludicrous. The idea that some series of chemical reactions persisting for long periods of time spontaneously forming a reproducing, information -containing molecule is just as ludicrous. I believe that we are stuck.
To have a conversation with either of you would be the greatest thing I can imagine. It's difficult to go through life without having these kinds of conversations. Just by eavesdropping I feel more like I'm participating in my purpose.
The most fascinating thing I take from these talks is in the comments. Every episode someone states that this is the most best conversation they have ever heard. This means that you have changed the way at least 1 person thinks in every episode. That is amazing to me and should give you great cause to continue to upload these and keep having interesting conversations. Maybe one of the people watching some of these talk will go on to change the world or discover the answers to some of the questions you and your guests bring up.
Lex, you are doing a great job. You should not be so hard on yourself. I think in the long term your job will ne remembered more in net positive than Joe Rogan's or any other podcaster. I admire your strive to bring scientific discourses to general public. There are many exciting and thrilling questions being discussed on your podcasts.
Personally I think the comparisons and fictional VS scenario between Rogan and Lexs podcast really immature. They are and always have been completely different podcasts. And I believe they have both been in the net positive massively for the entire world. In matter of fact they may well have not been one without the other. So whilst I get the comparisons on a surface level, it doesn't need much undoing.
She is a breath of fresh air. She gets it. Everyone is stuck in a rut and has tunnel vision. She has unlocked herself. Unlimited herself. Learning and unlearning. So refreshing.
Exceptional conversation. The idea that there has to be an intelligence behind all life/ creation becomes more like the only logical behind the existence of everything there is. And it is no doubt all loving.

They are typically conclusions based on repeated scientific experiments over many years, and which have become accepted universally by scientist because our collective consciousness agreed on certain physical law that made sense to most physicist society so it became the law . are we creating or discovering physical laws ?
@@janakiapesova3128 One could say that everything already exists. It's just up to us to make these metaphysical things tangible enough so that we can play with them and integrate them into our toolbox of knowledge.
Thank you to Sara and you pondering these particular questions. May Life, indeed, eternally go on.
I need to be more active on the subreddit. The different faces lex makes while listening to his guests are whole moods, they’re so personal.
RUclips putting adverts for stocks in drugs that are illegal in my country... nice ✌️
She's brilliant. Her articulated glimpses into the profoundly complex probabilities seen through limited experience, her explanations relate well to my own ruminations.
I watch your podcast every day. Thank you sir for the excellent content. Sara Walker is incredible. Thank you Ms. Walker!! Go science!!!!!
Loved this conversation. It's wonderful that Sara is not an outcast for exploring these complex questions in these "hard to communicate" directions. One day Rupert Sheldrake will be acknowledged for his intimations about life.
More of these types of discussions. Super interesting. I don't get to go deep on things im curious about very often.
Ah jeez., It's almost 1 am in Germany... totally gonna listen to it now ^^
you will love it and i swear she plays warhammer 40k couple of her ideas are drived from it XD or the other way around
Standard, sleep is for the sheep
Ah jeez, Rick
She's amazing. Charming and enthusiastic and smart. Doesn't get much better than that.
I appreciate the candor, honesty and humility that's apparent here. The origin of life still seems to be miraculous. The idea of a self-replicating, hydrolyzable polymer spontaneously forming in boiling (or nearly boiling) water is ludicrous. The idea that some series of chemical reactions persisting for long periods of time spontaneously forming a reproducing, information -containing molecule is just as ludicrous. I believe that we are stuck.
I mean... I'm listening to Lex more than Joe these days.
Thanks for the great conversations Lex!
Science > Bro Scients
sounds like life is chemistry that recognizes that it needs something else to maintain, develop or grow
Imagine trying to understand computation only by analizyng the projection on the monitor (pixel/light/colour) that's Phisics...
This is one of the most enlightened comment I read on youtube
@@lucianoinso The differences between 2d and 3d simulation (besides Energy/Computaion power) will unviel the origins of Phisics/Life/Conscience.
To have a conversation with either of you would be the greatest thing I can imagine. It's difficult to go through life without having these kinds of conversations. Just by eavesdropping I feel more like I'm participating in my purpose.
The most fascinating thing I take from these talks is in the comments. Every episode someone states that this is the most best conversation they have ever heard. This means that you have changed the way at least 1 person thinks in every episode. That is amazing to me and should give you great cause to continue to upload these and keep having interesting conversations. Maybe one of the people watching some of these talk will go on to change the world or discover the answers to some of the questions you and your guests bring up.
Lex, you and this podcast give me hope. Truly man- thank you.
This was a freakin' awesome conversation. THANK YOU BOTH!
Why did you stop the convo at the part where she was discussing why there aren’t more life forms on Earth. It’s my favorite unanswered question :(
I love watching Lex Fridman. Everyone you have on your show, they are such amazing people.
Podcasts like this make me realise how much I miss learning.
Sara is very high energy - especially in juxtaposition to Lex, lmao
They make each other look exponentially opposite!!!😁😅🤣😂
I couldn't listen this one in 1.5x because of her... 😒
I'm having to go with .75 speed to follow Sara Lol
She's wonderful!
Ok but they're going to date right? So much chemistry 😂
Agreed.
I was looking for this comment. You could cut that sexual tension with a knife.
@@ErnoSallinen Well that's something people say, but neither one of them seemed tense to me.
Yes, it's a figure of speech.
She talked about her kids! Come on, they are fun in discussion..but....
Lex, you are doing a great job. You should not be so hard on yourself. I think in the long term your job will ne remembered more in net positive than Joe Rogan's or any other podcaster. I admire your strive to bring scientific discourses to general public. There are many exciting and thrilling questions being discussed on your podcasts.
Personally I think the comparisons and fictional VS scenario between Rogan and Lexs podcast really immature. They are and always have been completely different podcasts. And I believe they have both been in the net positive massively for the entire world. In matter of fact they may well have not been one without the other.
So whilst I get the comparisons on a surface level, it doesn't need much undoing.
i'm listening to her while working and my god, she is amazing.
Almost every sentence spoken in this podcast had never been spoken before, ever.
...and now, more things exist.
"let me cross that out" that got me lol
I feel like they are polar opposites but they work well with each other! Definitely need a part 2!!
Such a brilliant guest, please have her on here again.
I've let this collect dust in my watch later list for far too long. Great conversation!
Lex: you really don't need to listen to every episode.
Me: but like... I do lex. Every one! XD
Your one awsome homan! ")
Amazing, one of the best podcasts I've seen this year. Great job Lex & Sara.
Lex has best podcasts out there
I love you thoughts and views on life and great guests on your podcast 👍👍👍👍👍👍
She is a breath of fresh air. She gets it. Everyone is stuck in a rut and has tunnel vision. She has unlocked herself. Unlimited herself. Learning and unlearning. So refreshing.
Two amazing humans and a really fascinating conversation! Thank you Lex and Sara!
Exceptional conversation. The idea that there has to be an intelligence behind all life/ creation becomes more like the only logical behind the existence of everything there is. And it is no doubt all loving.
Lex!! This is so deep my mind might implode from these brilliant and forward thinking ideas.
Such a mind expanding conversation. Can't get enough of this stuff. Thank you
One of my favorite episodes. Absolutely brilliant!
