Language and the Mind Revisited - The Rest of the World with Noam Chomsky

[@jessicarperry]

at time 19:42: beautiful statement of the position of language in the human experience. His speech is so tightly packed with beauty and wisdom. You can see his love for humanity. It's so nice to see him happy.

[@RTAEON]

True, but it might be important to realize that Chomsky's understanding of linguistics has enabled him to develop such an outstanding ability to give clear, logical explanations of world events. It might be quite succesfully argued that an understanding of the language one speaks is essential to truely following their reasoning and understanding the meaning of what is spoken.

20:32 Here he starts talking about intentionality

[@fastballonly]

If it were possible to give some of one's lifetime to another person, I would be willing to give a few decades for Dr. Chomsky.

From what little I have heard him lecture linguistics so far I would agree he has a tendency to be longwinded and get sidetrack, though that does not mean he is boring. In the lecture preceding this titled "The Biolinguistic Turn" you could easily compress the first 45 minutes into 10 with his sprawling delving into the Newtonian and quantum mechanical revolutions in physics, which do not have much to do with linguistics beyond providing potential analogues.

The automatic transcript on this fascinating speech are hillarious!

Great talk Noam.

[@kylevarley]

If you haven't found it yet, it is the other lecture under the name Language and the Mind Revisited - The biolinguistic turn

[@Meisje90]

Thank you for sharing!!!!

@TASADNESS sad but true. Intellectual laziness is one of our most dangerous enemies, the more our mind stagnates the less we feel like "disturbing" it.

[@martinezlopez4699]

@ Uploader or other contributors; is there any way to upload this GREAT Video again in a HIGH resolution and even MOST importantly though if the SUBTITLE could be added too (ideally as a [.srt])?

35:20 Chomsky on wittenstein oxford ordinary language philosophy

[@fastballonly]

If there is a particular organ he needs and is looking for a donor, I would not be opposed to the idea, provided that it is not a life-terminating organ if transplanted.

[@MafcoCinco]

Great Lecture, thanks for posting. Dr. Chomsky seems to make reference to a lecture he made the day before (or, in any case some time earlier). I was wondering if you might know what that lecture is or possibly even have a copy of it?

[@teepee431]

At about 5,oo Chomsky refers to "yesterday's lecture." Is this available please?

[@waindayoungthain2147]

It’s my sacrifice opinions 🙏🏼, what’s we learned from sweet poetry as Daffodils 🌼 by William Wordsworth naturally wondering lonely as a cloud ☁️ beside the lake beneath the trees 🌲, how can we seem likely to be living as used to be just for a day when the world 🌎 in climate warming change. Don’t we just talk by no matter how’s today’s togetherness beginning of life meaningful creativity is. We’re are not just like living addicted in weapons just for survival but we ignored honesty to live just money sacrifice, my Father . How’s the children doing how’s to leadings theme 😔. Don’t we could, please.

[@gulbahars.2307]

I would love to have Turkish subtitles. I wish there was a Turkish subtitle so I could convey this video to other people.

[@HkFinn83]

Maybe you could provide them :)

[@morgan9hough]

OpenAI Whisper could provide subtitles and then another model to translate them

[@readlistn3001]

The sound is very poor

[@randyfletcher86]

@TASADNESS A pornographic clip? What? Where? Please tell me.

[@buckfushes]

Origins and evolution of language is so interesting! If you're interested in language, programming, Sumerian mythology, thought memes, and science fiction novels, you have to read 'Snow Crash' by Neil Stephenson. That book got me into studying language.

[@waindayoungthain2147]

How can we live together by Multilateral be, my Father. How’s Deep thinking of me on ready submit from Khalil Gibran ,The Prophet, we can give them house 🏠 but not the thoughts 💭. How’s different ways we are together 😄🙏🏼.

[@twistedbydsign99]

Its wierd hes not saying anything super profound, but just hearing his voice I get ideas... wtf.

[@grantgre]

The ad before the lecture has Jay Z saying something in a inarticulate way constrasts with Chomsky

[@waindayoungthain2147]

It’s the insect 🐞 navigation 🧭 our world community lacking of World 🌎 in going’s challenge ours. How’s the locusts life with long breeding time and needs food eaten in Yemen 🇾🇪 and others in dried areas of clans bring🙏🏻and the Covid in ceasefire is with no virtue compromising 😣. How’s the new generation’s hope without we are not now.

[@junior1984able]

WHAT? Chomsky teaches at MIT>???

[@rosshoover6986]

Yes. Dr. Chomsky has been at MIT since 1961. Where have you been? In a cave

[@waindayoungthain2147]

he makes it so hard to follow...

[@oioi9372]

Chomsky dismisses dualism of mind and body too confidently, assuming that there is no way to imagine consciousness is anything besides brain organization. He selectively picked Cartesian ideas, namely, all those ideas that refer to linguistic and creative capacities, and ignored their(less obvious scientifically but nevertheless obvious intuitively)which is no mistake analytically, but there is a reason why the existence of these faculties lead to physically unsubstantiated phenomena, that is characterized by being unbounded in many ways. Just because our intuitions are wrong about many things about the world, it doesn't follow that our intuitions are not true about our own direct media of experience, ultimately. First, consciousness as Descartes proposed, shows logical independency of any bodily incarnation, and therefore, non contingent in relation to the natural organism that exhibits it, in our case being human. If by body, we mean, that individual natural organism of type human, we refer to as person x, regarding his natural form as unseparated from person x consciousness, then a simple identification of person x being conscious while the body is destroyed, dead, comatose or else unresponsive, would identify consciousness of person x as independent of natural form we assumed to be the person x, and non different from person x. We don't need to know all facts about biology and "matter" at all, to conclude or propose a view that consciousness can exist and operate in a bodiless state, apart in time and space from location of person x physical body, there is nothing incoherent about such a claim Since there are cases from perceptual studies where veridical evidence of person x consciousness existing apart of their assumed natural form(body) was demonstrated, Chomsky's view again demonstratively fails when faced with a continuous accumulation of relatable empirical data.
