Title:
Po miliardach lat monotonii wszechświat się budzi
Speaker:
David Deutsch
Description:

Theoretical physicist David Deutsch delivers a mind-bending meditation on the "great monotony" -- the idea that nothing novel has appeared in the universe for billions of years -- and shows how humanity's capacity to create explanatory knowledge could be the thing that bucks this trend. "Humans are not playthings of cosmic forces," he says. "We are users of cosmic forces."

  • Note to reviewer: I mistakenly pressed 'Complete' before performing the last proofread as I thought it meant the completion of the time sync. I have noticed a few grammatical issues (especially by the end of the video) due to this. I have tried my best to re-access the editing screen but wasn't able to. Please note leaving these issues in the translation was not intentional.
    Sincere apologies and thank you for understanding.
