Wire like neuronal structures that conduct electricity via ions/neurotransmitters in the CNS/PNS possess no attribute of thinking/life and yet that has “randomly” led to life. Consciousness/thinking is an innate idea(“Fitra”) that is distinct from carbon skeleton and yet the materialist scientist believes that chemistry turned into biology via “god of randomness”/”Emergent property”/”law of nature”. Consciousness can only stem from Necessary Consciousness (Allah-one/indivisible/loving/self-sufficient Perfection)

[@bluesky45299]

No matter how advance these robots get. Even if they can get to the level of ribosomes and can put togather molecules(amino acids) like ribosomes do we still have the problem of what ibn Sina described "There is existence". This fact can only be experienced. Henceforth, We can only be truly certain that we are conscious, we do not even entirely know if other humans are conscious let alone robots/AI. So the greatest truth that nobody can trick you on is actually subjective/first person Experience.

this dude is gonna be the big hero 6 villain in 10 years

[@rezadaneshi]

I give. This world’s technology has spun beyond my grasp at light speed. I’m old but I’m beginning to feel old.

[@andrewmarsh6875]

Love lex Fridman guests and topics of discussion.. mind blowing. Keep up the good work mate.

[@Infoagemage]

Two incredibly intelligent people. Grateful for this content . Lex for president!

[@jefferee2002]

It sounds like that molecular assembly video from probably close to 20 years ago. In that case they were building a molecularly precise computer

[@ShaunLevett]

These guys need to watch Stargate SG1 and cease what they’re doing 😂

[@Wanderer2035]

If its self assembling sex robots then it’s all honestly okay

[@GeGa-jq5es]

@@Wanderer2035 😅🤣🤣🤣😂😂

[@BayouMaccabee]

So basically, they can actually build those miniature Big Hero 6 robots then?

[@siimseiin]

Yay!

[@larryguterman9504]

Gershenfeld actually consulted on the movie Big Hero 6.

[@BayouMaccabee]

@@larryguterman9504 Nice! Well, that explains it then. 😆

[@Cymricus]

this dude is like if you put michael malice and steven pinker together

[@schassis_eddi]

please automate the mining of the asteroid belt and build mega structures that catapult bio mass to exoplanets that closely resemble earth 🌎

[@mnrvaprjct]

Stanford Tori and O’Neill Cylinders for the win.

[@looperbirhinger7043]

And send me away from this asylum!!!

I have the Iron Man suit in head. What a time to be alive.

[@freekmusbach8722]

Like! the intelligentia just sparks off this conversation ( as usual I will state ) But its not just that. The desire of all Lex guests comes down to one subject and that is how we can make things better. Not so much better for the few but better for all, as are the worries. The deep and provoking questions addressed throughout this series of vid-casts as I see them spark my creative mind and provide me with a deeper understanding and compassion for all that is! Thank you Lex Fridman and all of your honored guests!

[@ligaleagle]

Fabulous… replicators… we are doomed. Delightfully doomed.

[@viviandarkbloom8847]

3:03 Molecular Motors that are Moving My Mouth is a great example of alliteration. Sorry, I'm differently nerd.

[@UpUpDnDnLtRtLtRtBAStart]

Think transformers where the small nanobots built the small decepticons

[@HomeRunRealEstate-xi3rm]

Genius gave me an idea

[@KenOtwell]

"Blood Music" lives.

[@Katharina643]

Does it not need a composer to create a symphony? ...

[@bennydojo]

This sounds like a Wesley Crusher project gone wrong

[@jarrettthomas4865]

I’m dumb

[@looperbirhinger7043]

I doubt that.

[@pauls3075]

The fact that you think you're dumb makes you smarter than the people who think they are clever. it's the Dunning Kruger effect. Congratulations!

[@Bella-vt7ol]

No argument here 😉

[@AvivMakesRobots]

Geez, this is insane.

[@ooolrait]

Teach one AGI robot to mine, then produce and manufacture robots from materials found in Mars. Then make them terraform the planet and send a planetary robot convoy to move us there, thanks!

[@SiEmG]

send this as a prompt to gpt

When a robot can make a robot ... in the age of AI ... uh-oh ...

[@adbc8213]

Holy Wow! I feel like a dinosaur when I get exposed to what will be made possible....🤔

[@richardsyoutubechannel1]

I think we should build nanobots that take material from the world and build more nanobot clones, so they can grow exponentially. Just for fun, to see what happens. There's no law against it...

[@EmeraldView]

We're dead

This man is incredibly interesting, and yet the timbre if his voice is unbearable to listen to.
