Qhere it concerns about the education i agree with his arguments, here in america the education is meant for memorization, but that's wrong, you dont have to memorize, you have to reach your own curiosity and seach about all the doubts and questions that u have, the real education should focus over the discovering and debating the history and other thing from the common life
Just picked to study physics but now I thinking about engineering because that would actually let me apply my knowledge to work at the most innovative companies and maybe make my own product and brand. Although I think I enjoy physics more.
You need the scientist to discover the new laws and loopholes in the universe. You need the engineer to exploit those laws and loopholes. You need both to push the bounds of what humanity can do.
Obviously physicist. Physical invention itself is a part of experimental physics. Engineers commercialize the already predicted and created models, thereafter titivate them. Physicists are real scientists who provide breakthroughs. Engineers are more like mechanics who understand the concepts and then develop the procreations.
Mri wasnt invented by physicists. The phenomenon is what is discovered, but engineers made the imaging and interpretation of the imaging out of the discovered phenomenon. Without the applied mathematics of engineers to reconstruct scans into 3d cross sections and 3d reconstruction you wouldnt have an MRI
Well x-rays and radio waves exist naturally so he didn't exactly invent those things....but...he did invent the idea that a information could be sent in a carrier of different frequencies and that a receiver could be used to interpret that information. Also Tesla wasn't born in America.

Nothing is created by itself, God the creator of all existence, created all these for a purpose, Allah (God) says in the Glorious Quran, وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ I Allah (God) did not create jinn and humans except to worship Me. ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَٱلْحَيَوٰةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًۭا ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْغَفُورُ I Allah (God) the one and only who created death and life in order to test which of you is best in deeds, and He is the Almighty. All-Forgiving. Triumphant are those who turn to their Lord in repentance before their casket closed.
Indeed, but science, mathematics, and engineering are all about our innate desire to reach up and touch the face of God. What is a man, if not a being in search of *meaning* ?
Gran Torino If you don’t read the Quran and understanding linguistically, you’ll never know about the Almighty God, read the Quran then you’ll know the definition of Almighty God, even if you’re the most knowledgeable person in human history, if you don’t read the Quran you’ll never know about Almighty God, neither know about His existence,
That talk is absolutely foolish. See if you want to choose a favorite thing you will take the one you like so it doesn't matter that other doesn't like so same is with every passion see engeeners are doing there job and physicists are doing there. See if you are going to do anything, notice get up in the morning you brush your teeth think where that brush come from and thing who made it and what if who ever made it never made it, then after that eating breakfast fast think the bread you eat where that came from, then you tie your shoes from which brand they are from and think if a person who has made that shoes was a physicist so you never have shoes to wear on, same with your clothes and every daily need. So the point is that you are just a part of daily world no one has more superiority over other. See if thats the case then artists are more creative than scientists 'cause they can show there creativity on a peice of paper with different bursts and strokes of colors so remember "if one person is missing then one profession is missing then you are missing and you can't live without that" 😊
By the end of the century? No, completely wrong. Around 2040 a desktop computer will have the computing power of the human brain. Microsoft's Cortana is considered to have about an IQ of 40. That is doubling ever two to three years as algorithms and hardware improves. We are going to ignore AIs for a couple of years and then look up to see that AIs are smarter than we are.
Brian Ramsey You have been living under a rock. Firstly, computers are efficient not smart (that's why they can answer equations fast but can't have conversations), secondly, transistors are getting so small they almost cannot advance anymore and thirdly, they are not doubling anymore (because of the last point, progress is slowing down).
+Vault Von Well, consciousness is nothing more than an illusion produced by a highly capable network of neurons that analyses, records and reacts to stimulations around us multiple times at a second. I would say that our brains are just highly advanced computers.
Completely wrong lol shut up, you don't even know what you are talking about. What is your background? Cortana is one example of very few, and it's just A.I. Not a robot. Dr. Kaku specified both. He clearly stated the day when robots could possibly take over is long in to the future. This clearly implies an intelligent machine with a body having the biomechanics of a human. Of course Microsoft will have one of the most advanced A.Is, because they are a mega company. They have the resources to research and develop.

Qhere it concerns about the education i agree with his arguments, here in america the education is meant for memorization, but that's wrong, you dont have to memorize, you have to reach your own curiosity and seach about all the doubts and questions that u have, the real education should focus over the discovering and debating the history and other thing from the common life
4:36 I have been interested in electrical engineering since age six.
Beautiful 👏🏾
In regards to robots taking over the world, why is a physicist answering an engineering question?
lmao here in 2022, when we are debating if googles lamda is sentient, I think its coming sooner than 100 years, I'm a physics major btw.
Very wise.
I love me some Michio 🥰❤🥰❤
Physics > Engineering. Always.
Kakooo should visit kashmir because physics dances here
yeah....nuclear physics lol! 😂😂
Who came here after Elon Musk's physics vs engineers video?
Just picked to study physics but now I thinking about engineering because that would actually let me apply my knowledge to work at the most innovative companies and maybe make my own product and brand. Although I think I enjoy physics more.
@@NormanWasHere452 if you like engineering then you should try it
Thank for this comment Imma watch that video
This video showed up in the recommended just after I watched that video holy shit!
I’m going to have to marry a physicist or a engineer because I’m completely obsessed with both.
Please.
Still the biggest debate is messi vs ronaldo.
Mine is messi who do you support?
Chiellini
Everyone is limited to their own cage..... .........which they themself made....... Peace....
You need the scientist to discover the new laws and loopholes in the universe. You need the engineer to exploit those laws and loopholes. You need both to push the bounds of what humanity can do.
Obviously physicist. Physical invention itself is a part of experimental physics. Engineers commercialize the already predicted and created models, thereafter titivate them.
Physicists are real scientists who provide breakthroughs. Engineers are more like mechanics who understand the concepts and then develop the procreations.
How about Phy vs math
if physics dies engineering dies, if engineering dies physics wouldn't know ..
Mri wasnt invented by physicists. The phenomenon is what is discovered, but engineers made the imaging and interpretation of the imaging out of the discovered phenomenon. Without the applied mathematics of engineers to reconstruct scans into 3d cross sections and 3d reconstruction you wouldnt have an MRI
Wow
Mr Kaku is cool
Love you all god bless
Great 🙂🙏
Both are interrelated
Why is he trying to make things hostile for ? Keep it completely harmonious and engaging not testing and daring. I hate interviews like this.
You still suppressing my comments? or is it cool for me to comment too? I see just as long as it follows what you want me to think then I can comment.
Engineering physicists for the win
We now (2021) have the neuromorphic computer; it can mimic the intelligence of a small rodent. Things are moving a little faster then you thought.
Wasnt the x ray and radio created by the serbian american inventor Nikola Tesla?
Well x-rays and radio waves exist naturally so he didn't exactly invent those things....but...he did invent the idea that a information could be sent in a carrier of different frequencies and that a receiver could be used to interpret that information. Also Tesla wasn't born in America.
No the waves exist naturally.
😑
Radio waves discovered by hertz
Robots when see the humiliating insult in future, it will be the reason they imprison whole of humanity. The words “Mentally challenged Cockroach“ will be end of all.
Physics deal with how nature work but engineering deals in invention
It not "Oompa Loompas of Science"
Does it really matter, just give me more money!
scientists > engineers
Physicists do not care about the application,
We enjoy the abstraction of ideas in our mind and so do mathematicians
Which is something none of the AI can do ....
Yeah, like Elon
@@CamRebires Elon Reeve Musk FRS is an entrepreneur and business magnate. He is the founder, CEO, and Chief Engineer at SpaceX
@@amrmuhammad7527 Elon is all that (+Tesla) despite having studied physics, which contradicts your first comment
@@CamRebires man!
I am talking about those who want to understand nature, *their career is to understand nature*.
It's not about just studying physics, High schoolers study physics.
physicist is the owner and engineers are the mangers of his companies 😂😂😂😂
Math, Physics, others. That’s how God ranks sciences. ;)
Indians laugh at Physicists as michio said they both depend on each other.😅🤔
Watching this in the era of coronavirus, I couldn't help but cringe at the end when they shook hands with each other.
Man I really didn't enjoy this guy's questions... Thanks god Michio is a social genius amongst his other remarkable skills
Why supposedly smart people want to compare these fields? It like saying whos more important between goal keeper and a forward player in football.
Phycologists are laughing at us seriously. We dnt have a clue about system behaviour 😢
This video didn't age well 😅
How so?
@@lukealadeen7836 don't tell me you still haven't heard of ChatGPT
Physicists make a good part of the discoveries, but engineers use the said discoveries to better the lives of the society
Engineers get no respect lol
@The BlackMace That's if they are actually working as physicists and not engineers or software developers lol. Because what most of them do is play around with string theory all day or bash particles together. There are a lot of people running down dead ends.
@@aodoemela Physics is a lot larger than quantum mechanics. You are talking about 1% of physicists there.
@The BlackMace 😂😂😂
@Sunday Sinkers Yeah as you said they get employed doing engineering or applied physics which is essentially engineering.
@Sunday Sinkers And I didn't say they work on abstract mathematical problems. I'm talking about theoretical physicists and experimental physicst. Most physics graduates and up doing software development of some type of engineering. Which is the point I am making.
this guy is lost, engineering only became a discipline in the 19th century, physicists only job should be to invent stuff woth new physics, its not something to write home about. there have been more inventions by engineers than physicists…
Physics set the rules for what engineers can do. Physics is already in place but engineers do the real magic imo
YES!!!!!
developing software has nothing to do with science, but the world of programming and software is in essence its own universe and sandbox that is much greater than the real universe. brilliant.
@@centralprocessingunit2564 No, it's not.
In one shot , Without a physical scientist, engineering will not improve. And if there is physical scientists then there is engineers .
Radio was invented by an engineer named "Nikola Tesla". He is wrong in many examples like this
Nothing is created by itself, God the creator of all existence, created all these for a purpose, Allah (God) says in the Glorious Quran,
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
I Allah (God) did not create jinn and humans except to worship Me.
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَٱلْحَيَوٰةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًۭا ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْغَفُورُ
I Allah (God) the one and only who created death and life in order to test which of you is best in deeds, and He is the Almighty. All-Forgiving.
Triumphant are those who turn to their Lord in repentance before their casket closed.
Indeed, but science, mathematics, and engineering are all about our innate desire to reach up and touch the face of God.
What is a man, if not a being in search of *meaning* ?

If you don’t read the Quran and understanding linguistically, you’ll never know about the Almighty God, read the Quran then you’ll know the definition of Almighty God, even if you’re the most knowledgeable person in human history, if you don’t read the Quran you’ll never know about Almighty God, neither know about His existence,

That talk is absolutely foolish. See if you want to choose a favorite thing you will take the one you like so it doesn't matter that other doesn't like so same is with every passion see engeeners are doing there job and physicists are doing there. See if you are going to do anything, notice get up in the morning you brush your teeth think where that brush come from and thing who made it and what if who ever made it never made it, then after that eating breakfast fast think the bread you eat where that came from, then you tie your shoes from which brand they are from and think if a person who has made that shoes was a physicist so you never have shoes to wear on, same with your clothes and every daily need. So the point is that you are just a part of daily world no one has more superiority over other. See if thats the case then artists are more creative than scientists 'cause they can show there creativity on a peice of paper with different bursts and strokes of colors so remember "if one person is missing then one profession is missing then you are missing and you can't live without that" 😊
By the end of the century? No, completely wrong. Around 2040 a desktop computer will have the computing power of the human brain. Microsoft's Cortana is considered to have about an IQ of 40. That is doubling ever two to three years as algorithms and hardware improves. We are going to ignore AIs for a couple of years and then look up to see that AIs are smarter than we are.
Brian Ramsey You have been living under a rock. Firstly, computers are efficient not smart (that's why they can answer equations fast but can't have conversations), secondly, transistors are getting so small they almost cannot advance anymore and thirdly, they are not doubling anymore (because of the last point, progress is slowing down).
Brian Ramsey that is computing power. what michio kaku is talking about is consiousness.
+Vault Von Well, consciousness is nothing more than an illusion produced by a highly capable network of neurons that analyses, records and reacts to stimulations around us multiple times at a second. I would say that our brains are just highly advanced computers.
couldn't agree more
Completely wrong lol shut up, you don't even know what you are talking about. What is your background? Cortana is one example of very few, and it's just A.I. Not a robot. Dr. Kaku specified both. He clearly stated the day when robots could possibly take over is long in to the future. This clearly implies an intelligent machine with a body having the biomechanics of a human. Of course Microsoft will have one of the most advanced A.Is, because they are a mega company. They have the resources to research and develop.
