Dialogue between Noam Chomsky and Lawrence Krauss - March 2015

Noam Chomsky and Lawrence Krauss discuss a host of critical issues: communication, linguistics, politics and the responsibility of intellectuals.

[@robertpirsig5011]

At nearly 90 years, chomsky's recall and delivery is astounding. Legend

[@gklr]

Then Betty White must be god.

[@robertpirsig5011]

What?

[@gklr]

robert pirsig Betty White is 94 and she has better recall and delivery than Chomsky has. If he is a legend then she must be a god.

[@robertpirsig5011]

No it's just well known that Chomsky is one of the greatest minds of the last century.

[@gklr]

robert pirsig On language he has credibility. On politics he is as untrained as they come. One of the greatest minds? Laughable. For what?

[@lynnmccabe2449]

Professor Chomsky is on of the most important human beings in our world. He has been instrumental in the education and intelligence of so many, he inspires people, he makes you want to learn more, to be intellectually curious and critical of all information. Thank you for how you have impacted my life, I will be grateful always.

[@EdMcStinko]

I had no idea Krauss was a one time student of Chomsky. Great video.

[@Tsnore]

A national treasure. We will really miss him when he's gone, but he has lots of books out there to read forever.

[@sandrawoodworth8391]

I so appreciate the clarity and sincere hope within his strong analytic mind. Thank you

[@lauriemalyon6315]

What an incredible man. So brave, intelligent with great humility

[@albell2614]

Wish there was a transcript. The information is so densely packed. There are 10 minute segments within the talk with which I could spend an afternoon reviewing and researching the material. Very excellent!

[@heraclitusblacking1293]

Notice at about 6:45 Krauss mentions that he read 5 of Chomsky's books in the week leading up to that interview. Contrast that with Sam Harris, who complains about reading whenever he's criticized for topical illiteracy.

Eugene,I wish I could just treat you should you visit Malaysia. I relisten to this talk many times. Tq I had been Mr Choamsky audience in Peterborough Canada back in 1985.

[@heraclitusblacking1293]

I was in the audience for this interview. Somewhere in here, Krauss mentions that MIT doesn't require its grad students to take coursework. I found that to be interesting. And then i remembered that most elite schools are not there to give an "elite education," at least according to a superficial reading o that term. The job of elite schools is to initiate the next generation of elites, and that does not necessarily require course work. I'm a PhD student now. The coursework is extremely valuable.

[@namehear-say4279]

Professor Chomsky is a very kind and generous man.

[@truthobservatory6767]

Laurence: “Hey were going 15 minutes over time cause I said so!” Crowd: Cheers + laughs Chomsky: Giggles softly, “You made a choice” “How’d you make that choice,” Chomsky continues giggling Lol wtf is life man.. Then he subtly tries to get him to think about where the power for where that authority came from. DUDE he is the best Anarchist. Lawrence assumes an authority over time length, Chomsky immediately subjects him to justification. What a fuckin legend. That’s Anarchy in practice and it’s just a highly intelligent conversation, what a funny fuckin world we live in

[@bucketiii7581]

I'm so glad someone else caught that!

[@MuhammadNaveed-jl6dv]

[@johnnythreefour2902]

This is the perfect pairing. Chomsky is brilliant, but he often drifts off topic. Krauss is the perfect interviewer to keep him interesting.

[@one4320]

I'm not so keen on Krauss. Noam does talk a lot but krauss irritates.

[@burlingtonpark4136]

"Some people say 'what would Jesus do' but I always ask 'what would Noam do?'"!!!!!! thanks for posting this conversation! Chomsky is such a great teacher. He always tries to answer questions to the best of his ability .....which is beyond cosmic....and exemplifies a rare and precious intellectual honesty.Krauss is right on about Noam Chomsky's respect for and generosity to those seeking some truth whether about nature,history or politics .

[@chrisonabuffalo5485]

sad man, this is your 10th post on this link and you have nothing to share but hate for Chomsky and constantly bringing up 9/11....either get a life or start to question your existence, questions like why do i post constantly negative comments on threads i don't really want to be a part of ? ...or why i am I so angry all the time?

[@namehear-say4279]

Lawrence is "totally cool". I smile because I never thought that those words would be written out by my-self, any where. Not a waist of time..., Not at all. Well composed. Fun to watch someone who has respect for the privilege.He never got half way over a bridge only to discover the question or hypothesis had no where to go. professor Chomsky, you are you. Thank you and please. PS- AI can't truely have a conversation with a human.

"It's intolerable to rule the world" -Noam Chomsky

[@lestonb1]

Good stuff

[@maxviladoms]

How can a conversation between these two not even fill a theatre...

[@jesseamar589]

I was there, and it may not have been quite full, but that theater seats over 3000 people, and it was pretty close. What IS lamentable is that people, apparently deciding it wasn't worth their time, started filing out in large numbers about halfway through. I suspect that Chomsky enjoys broad enough name recognition that the robust advertising campaign on campus around that time drew a large crowd of people who could not have said with confidence a single thing about Noam Chomsky.

[@kosnow11]

Sadly, that sounds quite appropriate.

[@HueyMaxSucks]

They probably found the mics feeding back intolerable.

[@anthonyayala7925]

[@jeffreyborden5899]

The conversation (as usual) is remarkable. The individuals with the charge of handling the sound should be fired.

[@youmothershouldknow4905]

What’s sad regarding Chomsky is that he has been compelled to do the civics homework that we all should be doing. In a saner world, we all would do our civics homework and Noam would feel free to purely focus on pushing the linguistics field forward.

[@HueyMaxSucks]

Great interview. Never hire that sound man again though! How difficult is it to eliminate feedback when you're only dealing with two mics??

[@RyanLasek]

The fact that they must not have done a sound check is very frustrating

[@pb4520]

[@r0galik]

Much better than his "conversation" with Harris

[@kosnow11]

You couldn't have gotten two people more contrasted. In all of many books, interviews, and even debates, Chomsky participates in, it's the opposite of appeal to logic or emotion; I never feel as if I'm being pushed towards one idea or another but ALWAYS am enlightened in some capacity. Krauss and the like are in perpetual defense of an idea and as a result, can't speak about anything without qualifying the listener/student, the position he should have for said information to = "True". Chomsky opens up in you an almost mental portal or screen on whatsoever he discusses, and Krauss tells you what should be on the screen. I've just had this notion however so apologies for being a little nonsensical ha, but there is definite and frankly obvious distinction, especially regarding "Intellectuals" when these two are put next to one another, freaking guy needs to read back "quotes" in order to have a conversation with him.

[@88feji]

+kosnow11 You're overly idolising Chomsky ... he's not that great ..

[@msimp0108]

kosnow11 Thank you! I couldn’t cave expressed my annoyance with Krauss better

[@caitlinwalker521]

yup! he was very disappointing

[@AstroSquid]

So I think language might be more individual than what Chomsky thinks. How language is used might be more a factor of individual facilities not just in animal vs human, but human vs human. I've been diagnosed with auditory processing disorder, I think in flashes of spacial and kinesthetic moments of understanding which give me great shape problem solving skills, and describing my solutions in the auditory is very difficult as language fails with detailed visual associations or lack of descriptive words. I think there's a huge bias in intellectuals about language as our/the concept of intellectualism is only proven to others through language, and is recognized through language (auditory primarily). Meaning that in our social construct we limit ourselves by agreeing to what "intelligence" is via an auditory understanding, and projecting that on others that are learning their way through the facilities of their individual minds abilities. Understanding how minds and thinking processing are different for each person is much more of a powerful tool moving forward with education, as it may break self imposed barriers than intellectuals might perpetuate.

What does Laurence mean at 45 min about consciousness being everywhere and if you have gravity u have all the answers, says to understand gravity you just need one book, if you don’t know anything g about a subject (evolution of language)then there are millions of books on it. Knowledge of subject inverse to what?What? What do they mean by consciousness and gravity and what do they mean? Considering Chomsky’s view on the mystical nature of gravity and the unintelligible view on the nature of reality?

[@one4320]

The guy wearing red shoes fulfilled my expectations of a guy in red shoes.

[@gFS.1]

Noam should learn the diff between evolution and evolution of complexity

[@thunderpooch]

That's a good point. Evolution contains a lot of atrophied traits across many species. Not every species is getting better, faster, stronger, smarter, etc. Sometimes losing traits allows for survival. The sloth is an example. It slowed down and survives quite well by not making its presence known. Eyeless lizards are another example. Lizards that live deep inside caves slowly lost their eyes.

[@malikialgeriankabyleswag4200]

32:00 Language isn't a discrete infinity because tonality is our version of a groan or cry of an animal. Human language looks to me like its 2 dimensional, the tonal dimension being indiscretely infinite and the explicit language is discrete. Maybe he means just the introduction of the explicit part in the human course of evolution.. I'm not sure how we know what is and isn't explicit in the animal kingdom with no means of interpretation. And by the way I know nothing about linguistics so I'm sorry if I'm showing my ignorance lol.

[@one4320]

Nothing wrong with ignorance, that can be cured. Until then, best not to contradict someone with an IQ in the top 0.1 percent who has studied language for about 7 decades.

[@CaireneRevival]

Correct me if I'm wrong but at minute 24:20, great Noam Chomsky talks about the issue of perception, and that it wasn't before the 16th century when Galileo and others started correcting these thoughts amongst others, which isn't true. I think it was Hassan Ibn-AlHaytham - regarded the first true scientist in history - who corrected this issue in particular in the 11th century in his book on optics. I sometimes think there's huge neglect or ignorance of the progress made before the European Renaissance especially that of the Arab Islamic civilisation in particular.

[@bbkingzor]

Why does the fact that a child from Papua New Guinea who hasn't seen other humans for 40k years would grow up to be as an American if moved to America indicate that the capacity for language has not evolved for 40-60k years?

[@bntagkas]

what is morality? what is moral? why is an idea right and an idea wrong? everything in the sense of morality is human ideas, does not exist naturally outside of humans. so we see someone like hitler and we say he was fundamentally wrong and immoral, but he would tell you he is moral and you are not moral instead. does morality exist naturally in human minds in a certain form, and so when someone does not follow that form we call them immoral, which could be some equivalent of calling him sick in the mind? or is it all related to mostly experiences and mostly nurture in general, but with the assistance of nature in the 35% nature/65% nurture ratio that seems true in my mind?

[@thunderpooch]

There are preferred outcomes and non-preferred outcomes. The severity to which you visit non-preferred outcomes on people and/or sentient animals is the level of your evilness. It's that simple. Hitler = evil. He enacted the killing of a lot of people that otherwise didn't want to die. His own greed and visions were more important than what most people wanted. Edward Jenner = good. He invented the small pox vaccine. People could live at the expense of the body being able to kill the "idiots" known as small pox.

[@pb4520]

(sorry for my prior post. i assumed this was going to be something about "politics".)

Raul Simeon Did that. They have that quality of being from someone who is "bright", but not someone who has the insight into self to know that they're insight into politics isn't necessarily as complete and deep as their insights into psychology or biology or w/e. Einstein was smarter than the average bear when it came to politics, but he never would have appeared on tv to pronounce upon it as he could for physics.

[@archyology]

Ok, any criticism of his Chomsky's viewpoints in particular? Einstein's political writings were suppressed and he wasn't permitted on tv because he was a staunch anti-racist who was shocked at the treatment of blacks in the USA, a socialist and a pacifist. He wasn't allowed to work on the Manhattan project because he wasn't deemed "politically unreliable", even though he was the first to propose the building of a nuclear weapon in a letter to President Roosevelt!

[@jamesof7seven]

Raul Simeon never read that about einstein... oO

[@BubbleOnPlumb]

+Raul Simeon One specific criticism that I have about something Chomsky said in this video is when he gave his definition of "American exceptionalism". The definition he gives is most definitely NOT what is meant by "American Exceptionalism" and I am at a loss to understand how he came by such an egregious misapprehension regarding the meaning of that term as used in the current discourse of political discussion. Chomsky is no doubt a remarkable individual with an exceptional mind. But like so many brilliant intellectuals he seems to suffer from a few mental disconnects regarding what we might call "real world realities". Don't get me wrong, we all have our share of similar disconnects and he is as entitled to his as I am to mine. In Chomsky's case however, his are overlooked by many (his followers and admirers in particular) because he is...well...Noam Chomsky! By and large though I would have to say Chomsky deserves the accolades he has received during his life. I chose to follow his advice about not being persuade by what he has to say but instead to take it as a challenge to go out and think critically and reach for my own conclusions.

This guy and his fellow scientists don't know what the mind is, don't know what conscience is, what they are on about? Fact is humans are created with a value deep inside that knows what's right and what's wrong no matter the way a person grows up deep down he has a feeling deep down that says it's wrong or something it's wrong, If a person wrong and ignores his feeling and did what he was doing, again and again, thinking his doing the right thing, he has to live with it and accept what comes with it,the bad feeling, unsatisfaction of life he feels is the reality of human and a proof that a person is not just a body but it's beyond it and no one knows and no one will ever know many people ignore or try to ignore their own feeling to get what they want like a drug fix to kill the good feeling to get a quick fix
