Who is here watching in 2024?

He is a good sales man, he only talks about the good and leaves out the terrifying part of technology.
-
Watching this 10 years later I have to say I really like his optimism and faith in the human race to make these technologies available to the masses.

Why after 11 years, I finally get this video in my queue? It makes me wonder what else is in Youtube that I'm missing. Thank you Dr. Kaku.

Michio Kaku......it is SAD and selfish that you r not in communication via television to all students of every age and sharing your thoughts and current research. Seriously it is needed that you share....nowβΌοΈ β¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πππβ¨πβ¨π

He always makes people laugh before he does the speaking. This is because he knows that laughter makes a person's mind open to be more receptive. This guy is a genius for sure.

Looks like he missed the lecture on George Orwell.

This was sensational. What scares me is how negative the comments are. Physicists have already made the world infinitely more pleasurable. Scientific advancement allows us to have healthier, happier lives. The future is so much brighter than the past. Human knowledge is ineluctably marching forward. Now is the best time to be alive so far. And it's only going to get better. Quite and inspiring talk Bravo Michio!
