    One thing I forgot to mention was the research itself has become too much institutionalized, hard sciences and engineering as a field when becomes too much institutionalized it becomes very hard to make or discover something new. As both these fields involves looking into unknown, experimenting, which makes these fields chaotic and most of the great discoveries of humankind happened during chaos and by people who were chaotic and curious enough to go beyond the lines.
    Institutionalizing research is the demise of it and defeats it's whole purpose.

      Bro, people need money to survive and institutionalization helps them survive and conduct research which require huge funds. Anyway, most of the famous scientists have worked in some universities or labs. What do you know about research?

    PhDs may seem useless now. But living on Mars will feel 20 times more useless 😂.

      We should have been going to the Moon and making a base and what not, there. Mars is too far away, and doesn't have precious resources. But whatever fits the billionaire's view, got to be right, eh?

    Thats honestly a verry stupid statement to make... Breakthroughs in every fields be it Ai nd machine learning... Semiconductors... Economic research... All have come through phd scholars and professors.. All papers may not be equally valuable but the ones which are changes the world in ways which seem unimaginable.
    U trying to gauge the usefulness of research by market demand is even more stupid....all research may not be valuable at the time which they are done... But may become verry highly demanded few years down the line... There are many such incidents throughout the history of scientific research which u would have realised had u been a somewhat serious about the research presented in ur video

    PhD in India is useless. Becoming dharm guru is very profitable with high societal impact.

    Ph.d is not useless, for those who want to do pure research in THEIR subject. Being a researcher in physics or etc is very very important and greatest thing to do for our country. May be it's very bad in our country. That's why Indian's never won nobel prize in science, our country already falls in poor research and technology in category. We need more people to comes in core research for the greatest benefit of humankind.

      With idiotic egoistic teachers and professors in schools and colleges combined with bullshit education system, this will be only in our dreams
      India untill performed educational reform and revolution can never produce nobel prizes and technological breakthrough

    Not all research can be commercialised. Research on language and humanities ofcourse has to funded without expecting any monetary benefit.

    I think that paper on emotional tone can have major implications in developing realistic voice bots. but thats just going off the title, dont know the actual quality of the research itself

    The research you mentioned in the video is from my area of expertise. Its not useless at all. I have worked in industry and academics both. I know what kind of work picks up and when. You may think no citation means no impact. But it doesnt work that way. Many people's work is not ready for that time but it becomes famous later when all conditions are favorable. Yes, many people do research on not very important topics but still, incremental advances are important for science. Science doesnt progress by huge discoveries only. Its incremental step by step findings which lead to major progress. Imagine, in any industry, its a combination of all small to medium to large companies. not just tata or reliance. same way, progress in science is made up of all findings and not just 1 or 2 noble prize winning ones. Even the big findings stand on the shoulder of smaller giants. I suggest that you please read the implication sections of the articles before calling them useless.

      well you cant deny the fact that most people misuse the funds provided for R&D during their PhD period for their benefit, and publish useless papers for just getting that degree even without being interested in the field of study

    I will give another example in India, a person from commerce field does PHd on a Vegitable 😆 ..no seriously !! Typically they don’t say on what subject ..just that they are PHd holders
    Very soon this will explode on India’s face as all PHd from India will be mocked ..even from prestigious universities

    • @nemesis314
      @nemesis314 4 дня назад

      No, who are really wanted to research they will need it to maintain their stability, as they are young they may have family pressure, as they have no job as they want to study more, at least they could be self-independent so they can focus on their research.
