How 0.7 Grams of Matter Destroyed Hiroshima

[NNadir]

Richard Feynman as an old man explains:

(The best comment in the comments section is the top comment:

esterday I accidentally dropped a box full of paperclips and I nearly cr*pped myself. Fortunately the strong nuclear force stayed intact and the milky way didn't explode.

)

One of the interesting things in the talk is the statement subtly made that the law of conservation of matter does not actually hold for chemical reactions

1. How much energy did it take to make this video?

What's that in grams?



I don't think Feynman himself would have suffered this foolishness.

2. Shhhhh ... don't mention the Strong Force. Trmp will insist on renaming it the "Trmp Force". nt

3. So is this AI correct?

Those of us lacking your credentials really can't tell.

Not that I am terribly interested in spending 45 minutes listening to an AI chimera.

5. I'll be happy when the AI companies stop subsidizing this stuff.

There are some indications that the free ride is coming to an end.

This video series was almost certainly made in a low wage country by someone with a limited grasp of the English language.

The presenter introducing the series is AI too, as are most of the viewers and subscribers.

When AI users have to pay full price for the service that will be the end of it.

I don't think Google cares so long as their advertisers keep buying ads.

There are tens of thousands of real-life presenters who could do a better presentation in less time without stealing the likeness of Feynman.

One thing Feynman was notorious for was not suffering fools. He was fine with people who didn't know things and freely admitted that, but he could be quite vicious in his response to people who asserted they knew and understood things they did not.

I think if this Feynman simulacra were true to life it would refuse to work with the clown or clowns who made these videos... or worse.
