Idk why but their conversation makes me feel like I’m part of it for some reason it gives me hope

[Supreme-Sharma]

i was predetermined from the big bang to post this comment

[hobnob]

Yeah I agree with Brian Greene. People mix up determinism & fatalism & that’s what causes the bad behavior. Your decisions DO matter & all determinism is saying is despite them mattering, they weren’t freely chosen by you. But who cares, it doesn’t take away the emotions we feel. Telling people this will make them realize yes I’m not free but that doesn’t matter cause our emotions feel real to us anyway. So continue your life knowing what you do does cause effects in this world.

OK first of all I must say I've never laughed this hard to anything on YouTube. This is by far the funniest scientific video I've watched in my life. Hell, this was funnier than a majority of stand-up comedies. 27:00 had me rolling in tears, literaly.

[scrueskd]

We have a right to choose. Free will is not the illusion, control is the illusion. We do not have control, but we have the ability to choose, the outcome of that choice is where the illusion starts.

[SSixOne]

Oh the laughter. Enjoyed these perspectives.

[mitchtavio]

When I was younger I always thought the concept of "destiny" seemed like some romantic hokey pokey bullshit, but it turns out it is actually more of a scientific concept that actually makes a lot of sense.

[Malitubee]

I love that they’re too EXTREMELY smart people and they show their sense of humor as well, this was so enjoyable to watch

[ammarshahid]

Brian Greene has a much deeper understanding on free will than Neil. So, Neil should listen.

[casparwijn]

Anyone who has ever beaten an addiction knows that free will does exist.

[AA-gdyw]

The moment you know we all are going to die one day, gives us A LOT of room to create stories about why.

[rjam]

It was predetermined I'd try to comment here

Will this make us live based more on primordial experiences of pleasure and pain? All the while one would have thought of making choices based on one's satisfaction, pride, guilt one would feel, etc., with close associations to the illusion of self. But will the demolition of free will, the sense of self takes a massive hit. Definition of self to me has now been reduced to a living being/entity like everyone else, not the mind or soul. Now the core motivation of decision making is to experience a particular experience.
We have to seek these experiences because we don't live in survival mode (in the sense of danger to life) most of our life because we have established a safe living environment. One has to spend time paying attention to something (even nothing being something). Otherwise, we would have spent more time in survival mode the way our ancestors will have in the past.
This is the way my brain has made sense of life after the realization of the illusion of free will and the illusion of self (conventional sense of mind or an immaterial entity like soul). How has your brain rationalized to live with the acceptance of these illusions?

Does Neil deGrasse Tyson have free will over his narcissistic need to talk over others ?

[pasindubulegoda]

I’ve seen this discussion more than 10 times now . And I’m sure this is “probably” the best intellectual discussion about this subject to dumb mf like me. I’ve shared this video among my friends multiple times. I hope they listen to it with an open mind.

[MichalBaran-qe]

One extra thing comes to my mind. When they argue about particle probability in one place or other. Human brain and it's brain wave activity works and emerge in different scale. Quantum physics is almost the smallest scale we know. Brain waves are much larger in scale and probably don't interrupt the quantum physics process in our brains

[TheRigomoni]

Also when Neil said he almost got applauded for counting close to 90 seconds in his mind by missing one second in real time was hilarious 😭

[OGDKNY]

Tyson had the free will to speak 3 times as many words as the moderator and guests.

[ZiplineShazam]

How many times did the two narcissists, (on the far left and far right), interrupt others in order to make jokes and draw attention to themselves ?!? I was really interested in this subject matter. . .that is until those two ego maniacs kept hijacking the platform !!

[Jasonbeck]

I wonder how many of the “sit on the couch” types believed in astrology beforehand.
