There’s so much respect towards writer Kazuo Ishiguro from the scientists that you rarely see in the real world. I hope one day liberal-fine arts can co-exist peacefully with STEM, instead of people arguing about which one’s more difficult or which one’s more profound. It’s clear that fine-arts has a gift of “nudging” society that through films and music, and vice versa. Interstellar is a great example of that. Kip Thorne and Ishiguro should work on a film together. Would love to see that.

The host here did an amazing job considering that she had to interact with 11 super nerdy geniuses who are leaders in specific fields. Imagine the amount of research she had to do to understand what each of these guys had been awarded for. She needed to know all that in order to ask relevant questions and contribute in the conversation as well! At the same time she had to know how to regulate the conversation so that everyone gets a chance to speak in the short amount of time. Some of them are clearly not very social and some are taking too long to answer. Plus she had put up with the interruptions and still stay calm and try to keep the whole conversation flowing and entertaining to watch. She is brilliant and she deserves to be appreciated more!

[@SergeantColdgirl]

22:39 - 23:38 -- This statement said by Rainer Weiss got me at the heart. His small speech on dedicating your life to something shouldn't be for an award or recognition, but for the sheer pleasure of working on it or better yet "having fun with it". Although not important, the recognition follows later for others that see your vision as you saw it when you first started working on your pursuit. It's almost as if it came out of a movie script about brilliant intellectuals coinciding their ideas. EXCEPT IT'S REAL!

What surprises me most was the amount of energy and comments by noticing the faults, and propelling on the idea of certain imperfection of this session over the profound topics and great minds exchanging within this short 45 mins talk. I would say, if you agree the topics heard are of significance and most of you agree, no doubt, then let's do something about it. In order to contribute constructively to the conversation, I'd like to encourage the following discussion: 1. How might we teach maths in an interesting and applicable way? (10.33 to 11.18) 2. Expect failure 99%, you can only pursue something if you are truly having fun. And with luck, that 1% you might succeed. In spite of its treacherous journey, the joy of doing, the joy of pushing further, the joy of exploration is what needs to be understood, for all fields and of life. (20.07- 23.32) 3. The importance of writing (for scientist and beyond) even if you aren't in the Arts (29.25) 4. With the new discovery, science breakthrough and thought-provoking work, how can our society benefits from it? (25.40) 5. The necessary education of science, how to go about teaching these topics, how best to expose kids and the general public the importance of science and math, and having higher literacy and comprehension of the subject. (35.25 to 39.11, 40.19 to 41.14 ) 6. "We have forums but media chop everything in the piece, people are incapable of getting coherence stories". 39.48 7. Journalism is broken. People care more about eyeballs and click rates over the accuracy of information - (41.33) No doubt there might be negative feedback or voices of opposition, we are all entitled to our own opinions, if we spent our time listening to this, over something else we could have done, then it would be a dis-service to ourselves not to talk about some of the ideas and thoughts within this video. Here or somewhere else, or even just a dialogue within yourself.

[@josephnyamariwata]

1. I believe gamification can be a first step. 4. I believe that entrepreneurs and governments will always benefit from the discoveries. Because at the end of the day, they create the products that end up reaching the broader society. 5. Make it cool. This will take some work, but someone has to do it. There's a reason why topics like global warming and other related topics don't get "hype", for lack of a better word. The reason in my opinion is that; the scientists that present these discoveries and "warnings" fail to deliver the message in a fun, less monotonous way...

KZbin suggested this to me in 2020 and I can't stop watching. Can't believe I missed it for this long.

[@luisloretdemola1870]

Whole video is wonderful. The insights and Q&As are absolutely amazing. Minute 22 stood out to me. Rosbash and Weiss passionately present the key to it all; love for the work itself, independent of awards and recognition... Hell Yes

[@DMH69]

Quality education, Ethnic Business Model, Accurate Storytelling, Acceptance of failure rate and loving your craftsmanship. Wonderful takeaway from the dedicated well seasoned certified learners.

This conversation deserves more than 40 minutes, at least 2 hours to be satisfied.

In my sophomore year of high school (last year), my Algebra 2 Accelerated class did a unit on probability and actually focused a lot on gambling. We even had a partner project in which we made games and calculated all their statistical aspects. At the very end of the unit was "Casino Day" where everyone had the same amount of tickets, set up their games and played each others. I was astounded by the results. So appreciative of teachers like mine who always went the extra mile in his teaching.

Such a marvel watching these brilliant people exchange ideas. Props to the interviewer for doing such a great job.

[@Jj-rq9sp]

Interviewer did a great job with the time she was allotted and the job she was given. Being able to have that many people contribute in 40 minutes substantively to a range of topics in keeping with their differing areas of expertise was well achieved. She did cut the literature laureate off twice that I noticed. However she circled back and allowed him continue to speak to the topic under discussion. The second time was to end the program. I did hear her cutoff one other person to her right and was trying to clarify the point of her question that the laureate lost his cool and took exception to. That's a reflection on him not her. She finally caught on that there was no point in clarifying let him finish and had the good sense to take his outburst gracefully and move on. There was another gentleman to her left whom she brought into the conversation on literature and writing who obviously found being asked a question about that interesting but had the good graces to smile acknowledge why she was doing that, but also responded to the question gracefully. She did a great job! She gave everyone an opportunity to contribute despite the number of people and time constraints. She also raised interesting topics in which to engage these disparate disciplines sitting at the same table (5 disciplines).

I am sorry but the host killed this reunion. Please make another reunion without a disrupting host every minute.

It's wonderful to see a group of old people speak with so much young energy. The way in which every word is deliberately thought out and presented doesn't at all hinder the clearly endless passion they have for their respective subjects.

This could have potentially been one of the greatest interviews/conversations, ever. I really don't understand why they have chosen this lady as a host. She might be perfect for news interviews with politicians where you don't allow the speaker to talk a lot. But here, this is definitely not the case. We should let these people to talk and teach as much as possible.

Truly inspirational, One such moment I want to share. When this chemistry teacher mr walter white won a nobal price he put it beautifully, he said and I quote "I liked it I was good at it, I felt alive" ❤️

[@9999rahul9999]

To be fair to that lady, it's always going to be a challenge to moderate a session with 12 nobel laureates, and somehow try to keep it within 1 hr mark. Having said that, the discussion here would indeed have been lot more fruitful and enjoyable without a moderator. Suggestion for the future: Have three such discussions of about 4 nobel laureates from different fields in each group. Those would be a wonderful discussions to watch.

[@Viixle]

More People should watch this. It's amazing that we live in such a world were my simple life has access to such wisdom. :)

[@indusanon33]

Not surprisingly, while all are certainly knowledgeable and geniuses in their respective field, the Literature laureate stands out as the most insightful and enlightened. The power of the arts.

[@ethanz3837]

Best interviewer ive seen. Like BBC question time

[@ArikCard]

Any one commenting on the necessity of the host is missing a great gift. She is a wonderful bridge for people who have the same thoughts and question. If she wasn't present I doubt much of the viewership, myself included, would be able to follow a discussion between these incredibly intelligent beings. She makes it much or accessible to me. Also when she was correct - how many people do you think had the same thought about teaching through gambling? Not only was she corrected - so were all the people with the same thought. Also when they focused on failure and were corrected, or rather, nudged to focus on having fun - everyone who glorifies failure were nudged at the same time. She played an important roll.

[@juggernaut4799]

In such a unique setting where we have the chance to know what goes on in the minds of these great academics, the host should have had the clear realization that they are there only to facilitate the conversation and not lead it, and should play only the role of filling in the silent/dull moments to spark up new conversation rather than try to 'ask questions and get answers' from everyone all the time and many a times by interrupting what could have been an interesting anecdote/thought.

[@alejandromaron5402]

I like the importance they give to their own work. They don’t wave it around the room as the greatest thing to ever happen to mankind, yet they are proud of it, and treat it with the respect. It must be such a great feeling to be in that room with great minds exchanging their knowledge.

[@cynthialopez4063]

[@sebastiandoyle6299]

If the host dumbing it down means interesting topics will appeal to more people than a more drawn out discussion, she isn’t really causing any damage

[@ayntk98.1ym4]

Thoroughly enjoyed the conversations, appalled at the comments below which would rather focus on the host only, who has facilitated Nobel Minds prior to 2017. Try hosting 1 Nobel Laureate by yourself, let alone juggle 11 Laureates, and bring out their sense of humor while at it.

[@davidfofana1669]

yeah, I don't know what people are talking about. She did a great job

[@arrowhead697]

I think it's mostly that the format is harsh and so is the time constraint. Would love to see a longer format where the laureates can converse with each other more and topics are explored more thoroughly. She definitely has a very tough job.
