Teleportation is a BAD Idea

Today Billy discusses his theory on transporters and why he will NEVER use one which leads to a discussion never told before about how Billy almost took a completely different path...

Billy under anesthesia for dental work “Are you sure you aren’t just killing me, and then reassembling me?”

[@dogmd7]

That's more rational than thinking about teleporters funny enough. Because it's actually relevant to our society. I do hope Billy is okay! He puts out a lot of great entertainment for us, I just hope he's being farcical and not really worried about this kind of planted consciousness stuff, it's a slippery slope of mental degradation.

[@EvaFull]

Sounds like Ghost in the Shell on steroids & I actually kind of want to see that as a thing at some point if ever possible. 😂

[@SMAX45]

You guys should play SOMA. It's an underwater survival horror that entertains this idea of teleporters.

[@HoZKiNZ]

I've held Billy's stance on transporters for a very long time too. Imagine the sensation of dying over and over and not even knowing, yet feeling it every time.

[@Mephianse81]

How are they transferring consciousness and memories. Kinda dumb imo.

[@HoZKiNZ]

@@Mephianse81 Maybe our brains can just compress data further than we can with our conventional technology at the moment. You can transfer data from one hard drive to another with mmagnets. Who knows, Im not the one inventing it lmao.

[@Mephianse81]

@@HoZKiNZ lol

[@Imgema]

But you won't "feel" it "again and again". Just one time. The other times it's the various clones that will die. Each clone will experience death once.

[@HoZKiNZ]

@@Imgema Yeah I get you, but the clone is still you, right? So each clone will feel it. So it will be felt each and every time. If death has a feeling that is.

[@amwence1]

I thought that you dying was pretty much cannon since there were 2 Rikers . Idk how you can say its the same matter being transported, when riker was fully cloned and found out he had been trapped on a planet for years before they figured it out and someone came to save him. Looking it up the episode was called "second chances" of star trek the new generation. If matter can't be created or destroyed, in my eyes the teleporter just disassembles you, and then sends the info to be built at the next transporter.

[@loco_Maverick]

Billy has watched the prestige and it has changed him forever haha , basically his view is a large part of that movie . Love that movie

[@PickingTexas]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@TheGameChasers]

[@MrDflego]

What if the transporter can copy you physically but it kills off your soul. Cos we exist in nine dimensions they'd have to copy everything about you in all nine dimensions not just the four we currently know.

[@PhillipCummingsUSA]

I'm tired of the transporters turning the frogs gay

[@nullhypothesis1]

Love this new content concept. Would love more casual conversation, like the simple banter leading up to the transport convo. Balance this with the heavier stuff as well - e.g., hopes, dreams, fears, failures, past, present & future. The unspoken melancholy of nostalgia. Impact on relationships. Showmanship in collecting culture. Collector burnout & evolution. You could then invite others from throughout the industry and ask them for their take on the same or similar questions - why do we collect, how does this impact and benefit us, and what does/can it turn or evolve into. Melvor's question on a previous episode, asking "how did that make you feel" still stands in my memory as an enlightening, translucent, and forward-thinking moment. Whatever this evolves into, best wishes to everyone on the continued pursuit and elevation of our own life satisfaction. Thanks for all the hard work and sacrifice.

[@RhidMorgan]

Can't believe I put my crack pipe down for this

[@MrPoestyle]

I was in the Airforce in the 90's . My dad was in the Navy in the 60's . He was always asking me if I saw any aliens or spaceships 😅 .

Did you?

[@dougbernard1879]

That is a great discussion title for these vids “What’s wrong with these guys”

I love these vids, makes me feel like I'm hanging around BS'n with my boys. Keep them up Billy!

[@Predator_Magnus]

Now I know who to call to graze the leaves off my trees

[@PleasantlyLee]

Actually editor, the Stargate does have a buffer. There is an episode where Teal'c pattern gets trapped in it and they have to divert traffic away from Earth's gate to preserve it.

[@TheGameChasers]

What are you trying to dispute because I say that exact thing....

[@jonpaul4787]

Dude I love how you made that toy gremlin give Billy side eye you should add more stuff like that in the show.

[@jamesmcginn583]

Billy has seen Star Trek The Motion Picture or The Prestige either way I trust his judgement on the matter. LLAP 🖖🏻

[@ChristianAVS]

Consciousness/spirit can travel instantaneously, so once your body is cooked up on spot B, you'll just jump back in like a vehicle. Unless you get carjacked by a walk-in..

[@ll1844]

I have had this same concern with transporters for years....

[@Deadono]

I so so, much love these! And it means so much. More consistent uploads, which mean mores algo for you. That is a must. I thought you guys had ten times more followers.

[@MrKanejoe1]

That's the plot from Multiplicity.

[@JoNev1]

I think Billy's transport clone came thru from the future with a false memory of the whole Air Force thing which explains Melvor's confusion about it. 🤔😂 Great episode guys 👍😎 #Roswell #LittleAliens #LockedSecretRoom

[@roytherocketparsons9096]

For someone who does not like Star Trek, you nailed the thoughts of Reginald Barclay from Star Trek: The Next Generation.

[@SpookyBeatsMemphis]

If a tree falls in the woods…does it make a sound? Or is it silent so the Simulation can conserve RAM?

[@AJSmith96]

the beginning has me shaking lol

[@Turo602]

If your molecules are being copied and not just transported, then surely your memories wouldn't register either.

[@HoZKiNZ]

Dude what if Data from Star Trek was replicated into existence. Can you make life from nothing like that? If a transporter can reanimate your body and transplant thoughts and memories, surely it can just do that without a base image to work from?

[@izik7220]

What happened to the season. 8 video ??

[@thegoodspirit5288]

I would never use one regardless. I've never liked the transporter device!

[@dinghaas]

I know you guys have had microphone issues, but it's definitely sounding a lot better. Keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@TheSimTetuChannel]

The transport need to work closer to the speed of light than the electricity of your atoms.

[@Deadono]

Rob is so fun to have on this!

[@Pr0phetEdge]

Data teleportation is possible with quantum teleportation, you would have to download your conscience into a backup, map your biological makeup and dna, then use qbit teleportation to teleport you as a qbit stream to a remote location then recreate your bioorganic matter and then redownload your conscience.

[@Retrorevelations]

Way to talk about this stuff as if any of it was actually possible.

[@Pr0phetEdge]

@@Retrorevelations Just because you don't understand the Berkenstein bound, and how quantum data teleportation works, doesn't mean its not plausible. We are already working on quantum data teleportation and have been for 2 years. We have entire teams setup inside Cisco to make this work along side quantum computing. We have petaflop computing systems now and to think we have programs like CRISPR and the human genome project and we cant rebuild an entire human from a single strand of DNA is obtuse. The issue is if humans have souls that throw's a big wrench into the mix.

[@Duderino420]

Im way to stoned for this shit.

[@Kangsteri]

Best conversation I have heard for a while. Deep stuff.

[@SnipingIsFun]

I could listen to Billy talk about transporters for hours. It would be interesting.

[@MaxRager80]

[@Carboxylated]

i love these videos!

[@corymiddleton4708]

If your consciousness gets put into the copy of you, is it really being killed?

[@christopherjohnson8876]

The guy in The Fly tried it…..didn’t workout too well lol.

[@TooBokoo]

We all saw what happened to President Skroob.

[@ninjacrypt5795]

Now, what if all that happens every time you go to sleep

[@dogmd7]

What happens if it happens every time you take a breath? Just a never-ending series of questions. It's best to not lose sight of reality when talking about hypotheticals.

[@Imgema]

Yup. Billy gets it. That thing will just clone and then kill you. It makes more sense than particles "teleporting" along with your own conscious.. The clone will never realize what really happened since the memories of the original person are still intact inside him. For the clone and the outsiders, it will look like a trip. For you who stepped in the teleporter though... just the nothingness of death.

[@Man_of_Tomorrow]

I've thought of this as well in terms of Star Trek. BUT I would have to assume if they've reached the point of developing that technology they would have a very clear understanding of the physics behind it and what exactly is happening during the process. Which leads me to one of two conclusions, either A. no, it doesn't kill you, it is 100% you dissembled and put back together on the other side. Or B. Yes, you DO die, it is a copy but the world of Star Trek is just morally okay with that. Either way, I think they would fully understand it.

[@unkieclaw6488]

I'm not using a transporter because I saw the movie the Fly.

[@duhmez]

Scientists did not transport any particles. The same kind of particle was already othe othe side. They teleported what is called the "quantum state" which is really just what the particle is doing and its information

[@vgends7577]

Star Trek has done stories about the exact stuff you’re talking about for transporters. Their body gets destroyed, and it’s their consciousness that’s transferred

[@Retrorevelations]

If that's actually even remotely true, why the hell would anyone ever do it? If the original REAL you is being killed by the damn thing, why would you ever even want to?

[@vgends7577]

[@simex909]

Correct, you would have to perfectly understand consciousness and how it relates to the body-- something that scientists can not be trusted to do, because of their bias towards materialism. It's also possible that your consciousness would just switch bodies. I would never roll the dice though.

To be fair there is already plenty of existing theories about ST transporters (in the shows even!) but I've never really put much into those discussions, but now that a non military maga guy has laid it all out, it sounds so deep and thought provoking!

[@NotGary_]

[@el4174]

Kinda a like a replicant....

[@dogmd7]

This kind of sounds like a schizophrenic breakdown to me. How can you go through life with this rationale? How can you prove that when you go to bed, you don't wake up having died the night before and you are a copy now? None of this seems very rational to even think about to me. Please, everyone, seek help if you go through life with this kind of thinking if it is a major concern to you. It's one thing to think about it in a philosophical way, but don't lose sight of the ball that is in front of you. Obviously we don't know what a possible teleporter for human matter can be because the technology isn't understood yet. Once it is possible (or not), we'll be able to understand how it works, so this discussion is just baseless to me because it's talking about a non-existent technology that is referring strictly to science fiction media.

[@Retrorevelations]

OR, maybe just never be stupid enough to let anyone "beam" you anywhere.

[@TheGameChasers]

When you go to bed you are not having your body's matter desentigrated and then reconstructed again in another place would a good reason why I don't worry about it when I sleep....

[@dogmd7]

That’s true but it’s not based on reality and is just science fiction.

[@AJSmith96]

[@murdock94]

I'm on Billy's side on this. I'd rather take 6 years to get some place then 2 nano seconds in a transporter.

[@dogmd7]

Maybe you would like to take trains or boats instead of planes too, huh? Obviously we don't know what a possible teleporter for human matter can be because the technology isn't understood yet. Once it is, we'll be able to understand how it works, so this discussion is just baseless to me because it's talking about a non-existent technology that may or may not ever exist. Everything new is scary, try to show someone from the BC era the technology we have today and they'd think it was a sign from the devil. It's just a level of unfamiliarity that is striking the fears you have...

"Once it is". I love it. People thinking that "oh it was done in fiction, OF COURSE all these things will eventually be possible!"
