Parasitic divergence

 


This seems to be a *very* heterodox channel, but still in some sense "scientific", so plz don´t tell Prof Dave, LOL. In this "sneak peak", the content-creator Curt Jaimungal talks to Chris Langan, the creator of the Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe (CMTU). 

Langan is said to be the smartest guy alive, with an IQ of 200 (?!). I looked into the CMTU some years ago, and (of course) didn´t get half of it, but I got the impression that it was some kind of neo-Hinduism trying to synthetize pantheim, theism and maybe even cyberpunk. And Whitehead as per usual? 

Or maybe not. Note Lagan´s laughing criticism of trans-humanism in the clip above. Well, at least there is *one* problem we don´t have to handle in the near meta-future!
