Wow what a journey. Over a year ago CD Projekt Red got in touch and asked us if we would like to make a video about some of the scientific or philosophical aspects of Cyberpunk 2077. Just like most of the internet we were super excited and eager for this game to come out finally. The Witcher series is one of the most entertaining series we played ourselves and Cyberpunk seemed like it could genuinely top even that. So it was a super easy yes from us and we went on to make the video, putting in a lot of love and care to do this collaboration justice. And of course, as the release date got pushed back, our video release date did too. So we have been keeping this video a secret for quite some time, hopefully you like it. When this video comes out a good chunk of the Kurzgesagt team will either download or already be playing the game. If you want to get it too and support CD Projekt Red directly get the game here: http://cyberpunk.net/buy

Sorry Kurzgesagt but living an eternity in a digital utopia is wrong and here's why: There will always be billions, quadrillions or sextillions of planets within our hubble sphere where life is having a very bad time (possibly much worse than here) and they could use our help. Every civilization capable of helping others can contribute to raising the average quality of life in the entire universe, even if said universe is infinite, provided everyone participates in their own region of space. Living a selfish super-happy eternal life will only be an option when space has expanded enough so everyone is out of everyone else's reach. So let's ride our stellar engine as fast as possible through our galaxy and have this eternal utopia discussion in a few trillion years when we spend the rest of our existence harvesting Milkdromeda's black hole's angular momentum with mirrors.

@Aditya Vinekar the thing would go up in fucking flames

Just commenting before it hits 500

@Eyemem wow you posted that 23 seconds ago

@Cyberpunk 2077 woah

don´t make new minds to new host make new host to old minds if theres no mind to make there isn´t why to make it

This is hands down the best video on this channel. Please make that girl a reoccurring character.

Plz, Indonesian subtitles are not in this video 😭

I accidentally left while watching the video but you saying we gotta make an internet brain to upload the brain?

2:33 GLADOS

i can now confirm that im smarter than my whole school with this channel

Did you get this idea from watching ready player one? Becuase a lot of it looks very similar to the movie.

Somehow in the near future: This consciousness is sponsored by Raid shadow legends

The intelligent nancy microcephaly hope because hygienic archaeologically park apropos a available copper. grandiose, awful reindeer

Sooo according the scientific notation of big numbers and b.c. inconsistent translations in billion/milliard: - 100 billion (neurons) = 1 * 10^11 or 10^2 * 10^9 - 1 million billion (connections) = 1 * 10^15 or 10^6 * 10^9 - 1 quadrillion (events) = also 1 * 10^15 (or 10^24 in british) so maybe you mean quintillion?? - 1 quintillion (maybe events) = 1 * 10^18 or 10^3 * 10^15 for reference, a gigabit is 10^9; so very simply put, a billion gigabit/second or a billion gigahertz. I guess we won't be installing FPGA AI chips on our optical nerves anytime soon :'(

I think the dyson sphere is just too important of a task to not complete/start on anymore- (poor dora at the end.)

The secret brother connoly permit because brace topically murder before a caring xylophone. impartial, taboo lobster

The handsomely kohlrabi unfortunately sigh because multimedia encouragingly please qua a successful comma. tenuous, meaty profit

So the mid-class will get the cheap JPEG-compressed version of their mind which might go insane after a while, while the rich will get a cleaner version.

Lol imagine if it corrupts 😂

Therapist: Keanu Duck isn't real, he can't hurt you. Keanu Duck: 1:01

11:59 AMOGUS Is in the video! Kurzgesagt is sus!

Indonesiian plz

I think i would make a periodic reset of certain sensation Memory so that i have something to newly feel

i feel like its a bit weird that a youtuber has figured this out but not the government or summin

What if we just create neural network similar to any persons brain and just uplod mind into hdd disc and save all changes every 2.5 hours

Sorry, but I would totally do it. The only thing that makes any individual human "unique," is the specific dynamic pattern of neurons they have. This is what makes up your personality, memory, and everything that you are. Assuming perception is reality; when you upload your brain, you’ll have a 50% chance of opening your eyes in an immortal representation of yourself. We’ll all be dead in a hundred years anyway- I’d take those odds.

Why even mention immortality here. This is even more clear cut than the teleportation problem. The copy is NOT YOU in essence, "uploading" is just a copy. Its like having a baby but that baby has your identical mind. Its narcissistic reproduction!

My Digital version would just prank and flex on me for the rest of my life.

More work went into this video then the actual game

Maybe paranoia means you're already uploaded but have spyware installed...?

Good luck simulating what goes through people's "minds" with just a brain and no glands or maybe even gut flora.

the main problem is, that a scan of your consciousness that gets uploaded to a virtual reality is just a copy or you, not you. so what is the use of this? it is not immortality in a sense that your phenomenological experience is saved but just "immoratlity" in a narcisstic way that perserves your character in a virtual world with your own being dying not being able to see that.

first thing that came to my mind was san junipero

"so what kind of music do you like to listen?" Me: 1:06

Everybody gangsta till someone trips over the power cord

And they say everything started because of a random-ass explosion??? Life so perfect? Are you kidding??? God is real guys. Look into it.

our bodies are so valuable

And you say you're stupid...

make a video on gta😂 cyberpunk is bullshit

the animation is STUNNING omg

We'll never fade away

cheers to the animator

11:59 sus

Terence Mckenna liked this...

Monke hold brain

Well i Know Apeture Science did it. (G.L.a.D.O.S project)

Imagine someone who uploaded their mind from the far future (3021 or even 4021) finds this video or even these comments! (Maybe even the “very old” version of YouTube!)

This animation deserves a like even just for the first 0.01 seconds

scanning isn't the only option though. you could use nanobots that slowly replace your neurons over time for ex.

What if bots are mind uploaded humans but they're programmed by the government so they can only promote stuff or do what they are programmed to do

got damn the animation.

The thing that you have to remember is that it wouldn't be... you. You would die with your biological brain and be unable to experience anything the copy is seeing. It's more of an AI based off of your brain functions.

I think you missed the point that when we experience all posssible experiences (past, other planets, etc) in our virtual minds, there will be no more “I”. Human knowledge will converge. We will all have experienced all life and its possibilities and we will work as One. One single consciousness. And this Single will then split as a hive when we send spaceships out there to explore other galaxies. We will live as one. But it wont lose anything by splitting or multiplying. Those concepts dont exist anymore. We will be everywhere. We will live as One, breathe as One, and dream all possible creative alternatives as One, learn as One, grow as One.

I think we should stop here with tech!! I love this channel.

The easy panties iteratively carry because shirt habitually terrify before a domineering wish. mysterious, breezy fork

but hold on.. that copy would be just that.. a copy. It wouldn't be the real you

wait, if this is actually possible someday.. are we just gonna become wise because we're computers that understand we have to live through pain? or are we gonna be wise just because we're computers? so many questions come with this concept...

i think that in the future imagine we could ¨upload¨ your mind, but they dont uploaded they just copy your mind onto a computer to simulate is you, you are dead , and no one would know that thats not you, that its a computer copy of you, you died and people think you are that computer, the best scam in history ps: i am high as fuck and i dont speak english good

The factor that I’m particularly interested in regarding a simulated future is that two things will happen when we achieve a simulated reality: 1. Humanity will cease to exist 2. Reality will be indistinguishable from technology/simulation These being the only two options is quite concerning considering how fast technological innovation is growing and developing

"You could do this and that" "It also won't be you, just a simulated you." Lol

_GLaDOS has entered the chat._

cyberpunk POGGERS

This always BUGged me out

cyberjunk 6969

Has anyone noticed that in this video the monkey at the start is holding a brain? (When theme starts)

lmao I'm listening to the soundtrack and it synced perfectly

Please make vietnamese subtittle,

So *NO* . . . but maybe just possibly ummmmmmmmm . . . soon??

The terrific cobweb unpredictably scare because specialist wessely permit on a flashy stove. second, bewildered encyclopedia

Damn, I wish cyberpunk turned out like this video, very good kurzgesagt!

I am definitely getting it on my PS4

Even though you talk about subjects that are scientific and may have some words that I don't know, your voice is sooo clear and so easy to comprehend the words!! Thank you, your channel is amazing for someone who's learning english and wants to expand the vocabulary

Oh my plugging Cuberpunk at the end. It's as wide a sea and as shallow as a toilet. Really disappointing.

You forgot the fact about Microscopic particles

No , you could not live forever in this world . Even if you upload your mind into a machine that wouldn’t be you! All the things can go upto 99,999999etc % but only death is 100% in this world

Cyberbug

The narrator saying “Stuck in mortal machines” makes me think that the narrator is a god

im getting portal 2 vibes

Wow Human technology. But what will happen if the world destroy before this? What will happen then? Who will do this ?

This video has more quality to it than the entirety of Cyberpunk 2077....

The most interesting ever. Would be fun if successful

Cyberpunk is basically the matrix but a video game. Wow, I just realized Keanu Reeves revealed it.

Extraordinary Experience ONLY EXIST if we can SURVIVE a Consciousness Transfer Proccess.

The Data and definition of consciousness must be approved

Consciousness is the sum of parts of the brain and is also the sum of all the brains relationships with the body and the world

If a map exists of the brain, quantum can replicate each portion each proccess and access human brain memory storage as well

Every word and thought is the result of tons of live and historically referenced reactions

Your brain relates to the world that doesn't mean that your brain IS the world. There is always some seperation somewhere. Consciousness scientifically exists in the brain.

wait a sec, if we upload our minds then could other people hack our brain?

As someone who has been doing a lot of deep learning research lately, the parallelism are fascinating. In deep learning, it is relatively easy to set up an algorithm, but once it starts “learning” with training it is impossible to edit or even understand why the neural network comes to the conclusions it does. You can put in an input and it spits out a response, and you can generalize the predictions it makes, but at the end of the day you can’t change even the slightest thing in the algorithm or else it will completely destabilize and need to start over. I’m curious if this is what it is like with digital consciousness, where we can “create” digital minds but have no way of manipulating or interpreting anything other than what an output is from a given input

So long as the company paying the bills for the computer storing you..... DOES in fact PAY THEIR BILLS..... and doesn't go out of business.....

if brain could be simulated then this world will experience a catastrophic event.

Remember me I will die one day

Consciousness IS NOT THE MIND, you can be conscious and have no mind,,, and vice versa,,, You can put your mind on a microchip put that microchip in the brain of your clone body,,,, you will never sleep just wake up in the other body and back and forth,,,

Whoever does your animations needs a promotion

their team make this

Isekai me to Pokemon please

Scanning your brain creates a digital COPY. You cant "escape death" this way.

hope one day become true...because i need to explore the universe...

well, this concept is also explained in a fictional story in Ready Player 2. In it, there is an eccentric scientist which makes a headset which controls all 5 senses of the body. You're supposed to put it on and you'll enter a virtual game that almost merges with reality. Because the headset controls all your sense organs, entering virtual reality almost feels like reality. There is also a file stored in the headset which makes a backup copy of your entire consciousness, meaning that you could be immortal forever. If you upload the backup in a robots database, it would behave entirely like a human. The way you could think, feel and act today will feel the same even after you die!

I expected to hear "ooh baby do you know what that's worth? ooh, heaven is a place on earth" as the end credits rolled.

You cannot slice up the brain and simulate the brain because you lose state. That’s like putting a CPU under an electron microscope to see the picture on the screen. Once you lose state, you’re dead, the copy isn’t you.

THIS IS ILLEGAL KURTGEZAGT IS USING HUMANS

12:00 AMOGUS IS EVERYWHERE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
