Tim Maudlin - Multiverse - Where Do We Go From Here? (Part 2)

The stunning realization that there may be multiple universes has progressed from speculative metaphysics (or science fiction) to serious theoretical cosmology to data-rich observational cosmology to majority-accepted conventional wisdom. Yet challenges remain and questions abound.

If there could be quantum computers, maybe computers can be used to conduct experiments if quantum field beyond universe in multiverse.

[jamesruscheinski]

If the multiverse contains probabiliry of multiple universes, then would the multiverse be quantum due to the probablistic nature?

[jamesruscheinski]

What is in between multiple universes?

[cuddywifter]

Cosmological multiverse of classical universes is not the same as the quantum multiverse with many emergent parallel universes

To bad that the reporters camera at 00:2:30 is out of sync 2-3 frames, could easilly have been fixet with a scilled editor.

This guy looks so cool, like he had more cocain and groupies than Mick Jagger 8)

[johnayres]

I feel the sequential multiverse of Conformal Cyclic Cosmology postulated by Penrose is the most credible option.

Of all the different sort of more pop culture-friendly physicists that we've had proliferate over the last several years, this is a guy I'd never heard of before but after just a couple of clips of him I really like him. There's lots of great things about sort of having a more 'whimsical' approach to all this stuff, but he seems much more plain and no-nonsense than many in a way that just makes me smile.

cool shooting location... good sound quality too for being at the coast

[dreyestud]

I love how this guy tells RLK to his face that his questions are stupid :)

[h.astley]

I did not expect this response from Tim!

[Funnysterste]

I have no good reason to believe there are good reasons.

[bruinflight]

Please please please stop the camera movements. Too distracting.

[GlenSwartwout]

Why would you think that tuning would be random in a universe founded in coherence? Or do you think universal coherence is only a random function of this universe as well, and there are infinite non-coherent universes?

[jamesruscheinski]

Can or will dark energy expansion of universe reach the speed of cosmic inflation as it continues to accelerate and overcome gravity? At some point accelerating dark energy looks like it will rip apart older most distant galaxies in which case no or very little gravity to restrain dark energy acceleration?

[jdrmurphy]

This guy is a philosopher of science ? Really ?

[WilmaJonson]

For the moment being, the multicamera setup seems to be the bigger problem : - ) Joking ね

[vjntstar]

it looks like a fake background but the water is moving...very disturbing

[jackpullen]

At around 3:20 we do have tons of data of information that's billions of years old....

[siarez]

But if something is not in anyway observable, it means it does not influence your universe. So it is irrelevant. So why should it be in your theory in the first place?
