Note: I select clips with insights from these much longer conversation with the hope of helping make these ideas more accessible and discoverable. Ultimately, this podcast is a small side hobby for me with the goal of sharing and discussing ideas. For now, I post a few clips every Tue & Fri. I did a poll and 92% of people either liked or loved the posting of daily clips, 2% were indifferent, and 6% hated it, some suggesting that I post them on a separate YouTube channel. I hear the 6% and partially agree, so am torn about the whole thing. I tried creating a separate clips channel but the YouTube algorithm makes it very difficult for that channel to grow unless the main channel is already very popular. So for a little while, I'll keep posting clips on the main channel. I ask for your patience and to see these clips as supporting the dissemination of knowledge contained in nuanced discussion. If you enjoy it, consider subscribing, sharing, and commenting.

Michio Kaku is a theoretical physicist, futurist, and professor at the City College of New York. He is the author of many fascinating books on the nature of our reality and the future of our civilization.

“Chances are they will be descended from predators of some sort”
*Predator clicking sound goes off in my head*

[lepiota]

This man always expresses his ideas quite clear, making him sound more persuasive even.

Oppossed thumbs, language, eye hand coordination derives from predator ancestors, and cybernetic or even genetic enhancement. That would be the trademarks for aliens we may encounter...

[freecode.ai-]

Lex, your questions are always well thought out and insightful. Thanks.

[mattmattmatt]

Good guest good questions thanks for keeping a steady stream of great guests and topics man, hands down the best podcast out right now.

[veryskeptical]

I think aliens would look like most politicians.

[martinw]

I like the way Michio lectures Lex on AI, when Lex is an MIT expert on the subject.

Lex Friedman on his way to audition for a remake of "The Blues Brothers"

[Jmzy]

How good is this guy to listen too? :O

[mael-strom]

My pet rock has none of those 3 criteria and yet it knows how to be a rock and it is so smart it gets sentient beings or the universe itself to move it around. 😂🤣😋

[mlgfrog]

So the Mass Effect Trilogy true ending is the synthesis one.

[williamdrijver]

Excellent high quality and informative video!

[planetarylizard]

I was blown away. Had similar thoughts and heard similar thoughts but still. It always fascinates me when a conversation takes me to the endless realm of possibilities.

[phillipsierra]

Good conversation. I appreciate just lets people talk and doesnt try to one up his guest. Great talk.

[milksteak]

[sachinelearning]

Kaku is the voice of reason. He is a great representation of mankind

[jordanmatthews]

Lex! Didn't know you had your black belt! Nice man

[viggipedia]

Elephant intelligence seems to contradict Dr.Kaku's assumption given that it is a herbivore.
