Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
As part of MIT course 6S099, Artificial General Intelligence,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:00.000
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
I've gotten the chance to sit down with Max Tegmark.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:04.200
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
He is a professor here at MIT.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:06.600
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
He's a physicist, spent a large part of his career
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:08.680
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
studying the mysteries of our cosmological universe.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:11.920
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
But he's also studied and delved into the beneficial
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:16.960
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
possibilities and the existential risks
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:20.680
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
of artificial intelligence.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:24.000
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Amongst many other things, he is the cofounder
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:25.800
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
of the Future of Life Institute, author of two books,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:29.040
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
both of which I highly recommend.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:33.080
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
First, Our Mathematical Universe.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:35.160
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Second is Life 3.0.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:37.260
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
He's truly an out of the box thinker and a fun personality,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:40.160
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
so I really enjoy talking to him.

or conversations like this one.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:00:59.600
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Better yet, go read Max's book, Life 3.0.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:01.080
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Chapter seven on goals is my favorite.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:04.000
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
It's really where philosophy and engineering come together
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:07.940
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
and it opens with a quote by Dostoevsky.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:10.480
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:14.400
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
but in finding something to live for.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:17.940
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Lastly, I believe that every failure rewards us
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:20.520
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
with an opportunity to learn
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:23.920
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
and in that sense, I've been very fortunate
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:26.560
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
to fail in so many new and exciting ways
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:28.360
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
and this conversation was no different.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:31.840
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
I've learned about something called
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:34.020
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
radio frequency interference, RFI, look it up.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:36.160
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Apparently, music and conversations
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:40.840
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
from local radio stations can bleed into the audio
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:42.960
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
that you're recording in such a way
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:45.480
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
that it almost completely ruins that audio.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:47.080
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
It's an exceptionally difficult sound source to remove.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:49.360
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
So, I've gotten the opportunity to learn
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:53.240
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
how to avoid RFI in the future during recording sessions.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:01:55.520
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
I've also gotten the opportunity to learn
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:00.200
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
how to use Adobe Audition and iZotope RX 6
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:02.680
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
to do some noise, some audio repair.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:06.240
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Of course, this is an exceptionally difficult noise
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:11.720
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
to remove.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:14.380
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
I am an engineer.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:15.220
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
I'm not an audio engineer.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:16.280
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Neither is anybody else in our group
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:18.240
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
but we did our best.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:20.180
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Nevertheless, I thank you for your patience
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:21.880
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
and I hope you're still able to enjoy this conversation.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:25.040
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Do you think there's intelligent life
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:27.960
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
out there in the universe?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:29.320
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
Let's open up with an easy question.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:31.360
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
I have a minority view here actually.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:33.480
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
When I give public lectures, I often ask for a show of hands
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:36.240
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
who thinks there's intelligent life out there somewhere else
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:39.440
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
and almost everyone put their hands up
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:42.920
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
and when I ask why, they'll be like,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:45.440
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
oh, there's so many galaxies out there, there's gotta be.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:47.360
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
But I'm a numbers nerd, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:51.840
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
So when you look more carefully at it,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:54.560
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
it's not so clear at all.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:56.640
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
When we talk about our universe, first of all,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:02:59.080
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
we don't mean all of space.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:00.680
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
We actually mean, I don't know,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:03.040
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
you can throw me the universe if you want,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:04.040
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
it's behind you there.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:05.440
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
It's, we simply mean the spherical region of space
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:07.280
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
from which light has a time to reach us so far
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:11.440
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
during the 14.8 billion year,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:15.360
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
13.8 billion years since our Big Bang.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:17.040
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
There's more space here but this is what we call a universe
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:19.320
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
because that's all we have access to.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:22.320
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
So is there intelligent life here
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:24.040
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
that's gotten to the point of building telescopes
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:25.960
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
and computers?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:28.920
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
My guess is no, actually.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:31.160
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
The probability of it happening on any given planet
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:34.540
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
is some number we don't know what it is.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:39.240
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
And what we do know is that the number can't be super high
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:42.620
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
because there's over a billion Earth like planets
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:48.480
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
in the Milky Way galaxy alone,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:50.300
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
many of which are billions of years older than Earth.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:52.880
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
And aside from some UFO believers,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:03:56.280
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
there isn't much evidence
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:00.600
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
that any superduran civilization has come here at all.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:01.880
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
And so that's the famous Fermi paradox, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:05.600
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
And then if you work the numbers,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:08.440
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
what you find is that if you have no clue
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:10.180
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
what the probability is of getting life on a given planet,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:13.440
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
so it could be 10 to the minus 10, 10 to the minus 20,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:16.880
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
or 10 to the minus two, or any power of 10
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:19.680
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
is sort of equally likely
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:22.960
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
if you wanna be really open minded,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:23.800
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
that translates into it being equally likely
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:25.480
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
that our nearest neighbor is 10 to the 16 meters away,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:27.600
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
10 to the 17 meters away, 10 to the 18.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0001-large.html#00:04:31.800
Max Tegmark: Life 3.0 | Lex Fridman Podcast #1
By the time you get much less than 10 to the 16 already,
