Consciousness is perhaps the biggest riddle in nature. In the first part of this three part video series, we explore the origins of consciousness and take a closer look on how unaware things became aware.
This video was made possible by a grant from the Templeton World Charity Foundation.

It's amazing that humans are conscious enough to question everything, even consciousness itself.

It amazes me how at our core we’re just a collection of different chemical processes that all come together to be aware
Just a bunch of leftover stargoo figuring itself out i suppose..

*God laughing in the Corner* 💀
@@INFINITUMSPIRIT Nah, sorry it was actually me laughing at you.
Except that’s just an assumption. We don’t know any reason why or how unconscious material would somehow become conscious. It’s a serious philosophical problem.
My guess is that consciousness formed as an improved feedback system. It is a lot easier for an organism to approach or avoid certain circumstances if it has tools that span beyond that of automatic processes. The ability to think and reason does a lot to help ensure the survival and quality of life of an individual. It also helps one make sense of the environment around oneself rather than just existing and relying on automatic functions
Yea definitely just the results of millions of years of trail and error. My theory is we don’t even develop consciousness until we grow older as kids after we have processed enough data about the world. Like a video game that makes you level up to learn new skills or develop the skill you have to be more refined.
very well said
But if it's just a complex mechanism like in a comouter, how are we intrinsicly aware of it. In your view there is literally no difference between a complex organism calculatiung sensory input without having an acutual consciousness to an actual conscious being. I think you are confusting consciousness with self reflexion an complex thought. But a very good computer could have the same thoughts without being conscious at all.
@@itachis2gaming882 No, Babies also have conscious experience. We just don't have continuity in memory. But there are a few people that actually can remember their early childhood and they also percieve pain in the same way as you, they just can't verbalize it or create complex thoughts and reflexion.

A good definition of consciousness I once read in a text on yoga psychology is that consciousness is awareness of awareness and this always sat well with me.
Which is probably something that all sentient beings experience to some extent, not just humans. For all intents and purposes, either all sentient animals are conscious beings, or none are.
@@EidolonSpecus i mean, there is a difference between sentience and sapience
@@heliveruscalion9124 Yes of course. Sentience is the ability to have conscious experiences and make intentional choices. Basically all animals have this as long as they have the ability to sense and to have intentionality at all, it is not based on any specific number or acuity of the senses one has access to (for example, blind or autistic people are just as sentient as people who can see or who are neurotypical, contrary to what we used to think a few decades ago). Sapience, on the other hand, is having wisdom, or prescriptive knowledge, the ability to reflect on the value of one's choices and experiences, either past, present or future; it is to some extent an acquired trait, humans are merely born with the necessary conditions to develop sapience; for example, newborn human babies are not sapient yet, but will gradually develop it and expand this capacity through reflecting on their experiences.
It is arguable that members of some other species have potential for developing sapience as well; like rats which pass empathy-behavior tests, parrots, most whales, etc.

@@animusadvertere3371 How is yoga bs? Is it not real? Does it not give any benefits? What does that mean?
I don't know what age did I become conscious. It's crazy to think about that! I just suddenly became aware of the world 💗

Around 2 and up, many start mid 3, early 4 😌
@Seraphic Chic - We may have been conscious before then, but just do not now remember it now. My early memories are like still images or very brief film clips and are self centered, of course.
Hmm. I think if consciousness and perception were a switch suddenly flipped on (instead of gradually fading like waking up or falling asleep), you'd prolly remember that "event".
@@MossyMozart i have very few memories as a baby being pushed in a stroller and stuff like that, i even remember the park area i was being pushed in one memory. maybe its something my mind made up but ive had those memories for as long as i can literally remember
It’s crazy how complex our minds really are
Don’t think to hard you will end up in a padded room
No it's not, it's formed over billions of years through trial and error processes of survival. That's what evolution is. Nothing complex, just basic trial and error forming neural networks.

Bullshit thought how the fuck does a baby human support itself on it's own
@@jumpforcegawd2700 it doesn't. Oviously due to evalution having anouther human with more experince look after new born while it develops its mind proved to be benificieal in terms of survival. Since allowing the brain to develop based on its experience after birth allows for a greater understanding of the world as the human grows up. Instead of having a mind that is purley determined by genes alone.
Instead of having to wait for eeveloution to catch up with making a more complex mind, the mind can just learn on its own without evelution. The mind noe has the ability to adapt to new and diffrent situations.
The amazing side affect being the counciousnedd and... well you know... basically what we are today. But i do wounder if there is higher level of counciounes thst we have not reached... is it possible to have maximum counciousness? What would thst be like? I do feel as if i could be more aware of things.
And when you have counciousnesd and survival suddenly becomes a lot more easier.... suddenly you get more objectives than just surving and reproducing.

I often think about how in hundreds of years from now, digital archeologists will be combing through these videos and marvel at how we could possibly have got by in our lives knowing so little about how we got to where we currently are.
Yeah no WWIII is gonna kill us all before that
@Anonymous yeah but in a millinia that's If we still exist by then, we would probably appear to be lacking in knowledge and the things we do could appear somewhat modern primal (if that makes sense) just like how a millinia ago people were kinda idiots because lack of knowledge.
@@Rahvanteli people in the 1960s said the same thing. there is not going to be a ww3.
Actually, because you/we think that, and state this so brazenly, makes your statement abundantly false, inherently, lol. What we do now shapes our futures collectively. Think about it.
This will never happen. Much of the early internet simply doesn’t exist because of all the servers that have been shut down, sold away, wiped, bought up, etc. There will be no digital archaeologists. Internet culture is not ‘real’ like bones are.
The first consciousness was hunger, which is a basic rudimentary awareness that caused neural networks to evolved.

I personally wouldn't have picked Sunday to ban TV. I typically get caught up on the news stories with either "CBS Sunday Morning" or "60 minutes" in the evening also Sunday is when massive awards shows like The Oscars or The Grammys are held; then if you have buddies that enjoy sports... wrestling and football they typically air on Sunday.
I would pick any week-day instead... however everyone is different maybe it's less about the content for you. Good luck
As always really interesting and informative. Thanks a lot!

People who hear alot of their own thoughts. Are likely to be introvert thinkers / dreamers. Those kind of people are draws to these kind of video's.
I like the approach of building up from simpler forms of consciousness to more complex ones. There's an element of sensory integration worth perhaps touching on more, in that input from vision, smell, taste, touch, etc. need to be bundled together by the brain and integrated into a higher level sense of what's going on within and around you (this function being grounded in human neuroanatomy, in particular). But that's a minor detail. Overall a really excellent video and approach.

_If you take our consciousness as superior of all other consciousnesses, you are wrong._
_Infantile pseudoscientific cartoon to convince ordinary people that they are stupid living beings stuck forever in Kindergarten._
Wow. This is amazing. Blew my mind thinking of conciousness as a gradient
Conciousness works like this, when you are born you are like "pspspspspspspsppspspspsps", after some time you go "oh shit i am a sentient creature capable of thinking and massive potential" and it all goes down from there
Welp shit thanos was right he is inevitable
Pretty sure while growing into a kid that is capable of kindergarten, they go like this as an infant:
*_"AHHHHHHHHHH, WAHHHHHHHHHH, HUUWAHHHHHHHHHHHHH"_*
The funny part is that little version on you is pretty conscious. They just don't identify with “I“.
Just because you stop being conscious of your identification, doesn't mean your identification of your identity is gone. .

Dear Kurzgesagt: every video you share 10 minutes of inspiration and innovation, which reaches an average of 5 million people. This means that you share 50 million minutes of life changing content, or 95 years, every video. Think what good these 95 years per video will contribute to the community pool of life. Just one video could possibly have as much or more impact as someone's entire life, birth to death. This channel is a gift, thank you guys.
Kurzgesagt has a talent for explaining complex things simply. This video is just amazing -- they have researched every single thing that they have said -- the link under the video gives excellent references line by line.
More than that as well. The way people can digest info easily from their videos means they can spread that information and potentially spark another mind out there. That mind could change the World. Kurzgesagt is revolutionary.

This channel covers a lot of really complex issues, and its sad to see them not give them their due time. This issue of consciousness should be way more fleshed out. Its basically the most advanced philosophical question there is put into a ten minute video.
One thing not talked about in the video is, what is "the self"? Why am I this "self"? Are others really other "selves" just like me or are they not really "selves" and giving the benefit of the doubt that they are actually conscious "selves" is the only thing I can do? Is my perspective the only perspective that exists or are there other perspectives? Does a rock have its own perspective?

Awesome video and cool animation man :]
great video! I don't understand why I don't see more of this on my feed. I liked. I wubscribed, I commented, but I never get these coming up without me looking for them.
Human kind have come a long way.
From: Tiresome long days of hunting full of danger.
To: "Alexa, food."
Correction, it’s “Alexa, play despacito”

Thank You for this video! Congratulations for your channel.

this video is a prime example of how Kurzgesagt can use aesthetic animation and soothing audio to introduce a concept to the masses that would otherwise only be found in writing in forums, papers, and books and generally is explained in a stuffy, less-inviting way.
Goob Job, Kurzgesagt
And over simplify it. There is a reason topics like these are complex and difficult to understand. You just can't explain consciousness with a 9 minutes video...
@@Billy_D They didn't explain it, they introduced it
We have some other things to do beside getting an PhD in psychology, so maybe oversimplify it help us grasps the concept without spend so much time. C'mon, we didn't even get license to be an expert by watching this video aren't we?
@@Billy_D I'm with Pseudo Lain on this one. None of the videos on this channel are to fully explain anything. As you say, that simply isn't possible in 8-20 minutes. The Kurz team is quite aware of this, and explain it in their previous video (motives of it's release aside). I just don't think this critique, while certainly valid, is in the correct place.
@Al Ghaib The channel is literally called "Kurzgesagt - in a nutshell". So no, it didn't try to cover the entire field, every thesis and all details of the topic, but instead give a condensed impression of it so that one knows the basics of it ...
Consciousness basically means breaking the 4th wall irl
Thinking about consciousness basically means breaking the 74th wall
How many walls are there in the universe?
@@ThreeBeeHDb Infinity
@@ThreeBeeHDb Objectively there are no "walls" in the sense of limits to the universe, but subjectively there are 3 "walls" in one's vision. Unless you're approaching a black hole; you could, in theory, see the back of your head in a situation like that.
Edit: the back of*
That's like, 16 walls.
Lol
Ever since I was a kid I wondered how conscious things became conscious so I loved this
Yes finally, someone is talking what i had in mind since i was a child
I'm not eating too much, mom. I'm just getting more *conscious of my surroundings.* 😏
*just getting
Nice brain you have there
My parents and I were just having this discussion just before the video came out😂
you eat moms?
Are you sure you understood the video?
“ Consciousness we enjoy today”…
Speak for yourself.
You ok hun?
I feel so bad for laughing
Im understand what u meant
Lol
When I'm off my pills I eat alot I eat eat eat
the music adds so much character to the video!
An interesting observation is that while looking for food some structures and paths are created. For example the eye structure is developed to give the owner a greater surviving advantage. On other profound level mathematics or ethics give advantages in other arenas. In conclusion is the side effect of a survival skill what makes interesting the evolution.
The animation/graphics in these videos are just absolutely outstanding!
Right? The quality is amazing.
@@Cherry-hu4xm Yeah and everything is a perfect yet creative visual representation of what the narrator is saying
Ok
The only time I've felt like I truly understood consciousness was the few times I've experienced what a psychosis felt like. I remember just being blown away and in a state of awe and appreciation, knowing that I wouldn't understand what I was feeling once I snapped out of it

I experienced psychosis couple times, it was horrible for me. It's basicly when your brain loses its ability to filter out reality. There are terabytes of input coming at your mind every second, and if you fail to filter what has value and what has not, you go into psychosis. A state of mind where you doubt every belief you ever had, you lose your confidence in yourself completely and you feel like something terrible is about to happen. It's such a mental torture that I wouldn't want my enemies to experience. So so horrible. Yet society conditions us every day to hide our feelings and not express ourselves fully. Good luck not expressing yourself for a long time. Because you will lose your ability to trust yourself, your emotions and your instincts. You will be left with the logical fact that someday you are going to die. And then my friend, you will only feel fear. So horrible. I believe this society is prone to collapse because of this fundamental problem.
Great video! I can attest to the issues of unhealthy veganism. Back when I was in the midst of a drug addiction that happened after I had been a relatively healthy vegan I was living on instant noodles and breakfast cereal. I was just eating noodles with the powdered flavour sachet cooked with boiled water and no additional veggies, no vitamins, and no supplements. I lost a lot of weight and was constantly becoming unwell.
Prior to that I had been consuming a vegan diet, supplements, vitamins, and I lost weight in a healthy manner with a few months, I felt great all the time and energised every day. It’s easy when you are feeding yourself and can work towards a good well-rounded diet.
After tackling my addiction and trying to regain weight I stopped a vegan diet and after a couple of years my cholesterol went wayyyyyy up and I have been working to reduce it since.
I’m a vegetarian now, borderlining on vegan and starting to feel healthier once again. It takes work and you need to listen to your body!!!
I love how the answer to what is consciousness is, we don't know so instead let's talk about something related instead.

If it works, it works.
if it works the video ends-
@@dat1pengu1n I don't think so. Our consciousness and intelligence might never answer how our own consciousness work. It doesn't have to understand itself (or anything) to work. The fact that we are here to watch this video means that it has already worked for years and hopefully it will continue to work for years later. And yeah this video wouldn't end soon...
@@segmentsAndCurves dude its a parashockx joke
r/woooosh
@@dat1pengu1n Did you know what shame is? It is a type of mental pain that helps you to avoid activities that lead to humiliation and make us consider more about what we should do in front of others. It is also my feeling right now...
Incredibly cute and informative, thank you!
If rocks are conscious then can it be tried for murdering that mammoth?
Dylan Gaffney Yes. It can.
Only as an accessory.
@@Pale_Blue_Dot_80 Willpower is just another way of saying determination.
Automatism is a complete defence
Speaking as an actual panpsychist, none of us believes rocks are consciousness, we believe rocks are composed of smaller things that have the potential for consciousness. Imagine like you have all the raw materials to make a boat. There are many ways for you to organize these mAterials but very few in which they will transcend their basic status and become an actual boat, if that makes sense. We refer to it as “organizational duality”

I think it's because of the video "Addiction" which was straight up copied.... or so people say
I'm not sure what's the hype about

Best channel on RUclips.
Saw the video title and my first thought was "I'm not ready for this train of thought." Thanks a lot consciousness.
