    We've always interpreted the universe through the language, lens, and perspective of the economically-dominant technology of the day.
    Pre-industrial era: "The universe is a clash of forces!"
    Steam era: "The universe is thermodynamic! It's all about heat!"
    20th century: "The universe is electromagnetic!"
    21st century: "The universe is a computer!"

      Reminds me of the theory of relativity. Today it's taught as "imagine you're in a rocket ship going 90% the speed of light", but iirc after Einstein published it it was explained using trains going 90% the speed of light. What might we imagine it as in another 100 years?

    I believe the our universe is a fractal turing machine, that is constantly refining and re-witting itself. Within this turing machine is only one weighting function, that determines the expansion of the universe. That function is a question: Is this an expression of love? When this question is true, the fractal information is updated, old experiences are deleted. Ultimately this process will create a neural network of consciousness that will become the transcendent collective of humanity. A repository of all the unique expressions of love that humanity has created in all of its existence.

    According to the hot shots of theoretical physics, time is emergent. And some are even saying there's an indefinite causal ordering more fundamental than the causality that emerges from entaglement/entropy.

    The intelligence factor could be a consequence of increasing complexity and the system approaching equilibrium slowly. However electric potential and magnetism been present all along which required for computation of any form. So if this potential exist or we consider as initial condition, would be odd if nature does not capitalise on such potential

    The universe is its own labeler.
    There is too much individualism in this conversation. Turing and Church are manifestations of the thing that is creating the abstraction which labels the axioms that allow the mathematical computations of universal understanding.
    The universe is a turing machine.

    • @NightmareCourtPictures
      @NightmareCourtPictures 2 года назад +2

      It is fundamental in some theories (like in Wolframs). Space-time however is something different. This is why we have entropy (time going one way) and space time which is a relative concept. That’s where the confusion comes from.
      Space time is emergent and relative, but entropic time is absolute. In Wolframs theory time is absolute but partially ordered…so time doesn’t happen in one linear way, it is a network of casually connected events. That’s what makes his theory a lot more elegant.

    The nested DNA - proteine relationships - only one of many examples - are not mappable on a Turing machine which always operates sequentially. So it simply follows that the universe is not a Turing machine.

    I kinda wonder just how much fudging is going on with the science of dark energy.

    I looked up Lee Cronin's horoscope. (this is going to piss off many here but oh well). He is all Gemini. Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Saturn all in Gemini. This is an outstanding configuration indicating extremes of originality, playfulness, a cerebral approach, imagination and irreverence basically an attitude of: why not? So beautifully illustrated in his opinion of the universe expanding into ever more possibilities, He could probably be easily distracted and thinks faster than he can speak which explains why Lex is sometimes at a loss here. At any rate a totally fascinating conversation. Thank you both.

    The Universe is an Egg. It is full of raw materials and energy. Life = Self-Sustaining Complexity (SSC). SSC is a natural consequence of conditions within the egg. SSC is extremely rare, but when given enough raw materials and time, it will arise. Once SSC arises, it begins to consume the raw materials and grow. Once it consumes all the raw materials, the egg hatches. The thing that hatches from the egg then goes on to create a lot more eggs.

      I think the universe may be similar to a cell. Our universe contains the material for energy. Maybe black holes break down the material into raw energy and then transfers it to another dimension/layer?

      In 1633, the Inquisition of the Roman Catholic Church forced Galileo Galilei, one of the founders of modern science, to recant his theory that the Earth moves around the Sun.
      While the Catholic Church initially accepted heliocentricity, Catholics eventually joined the wave of Protestant opposition and banned copernicus’ book in 1616 for 200 years. The Protestant churches accepted Copernicus' findings after more evidence emerged to support it.
      Or maybe you’re just asking about what they’re talking of in this video😊 in that case, no they never said that.

      Better yourself in terminology and/or language if you wanna click on stuff like this. Don't project your level of comprehension on people who can use "complex" terms in order to have a more nuanced conversation on topics that go this deep. Imagine where mankind would be if some of the best minds pushing the boundaries of esoteric knowledge and experimentation used simple ways of communication with their peers.
