The Boltzmann brain paradox - Fabio Pacucci

How do you know you’re a person who has lived your life, rather than a just-formed brain full of artificial memories, momentarily hallucinating a reality that doesn’t actually exist? That may sound absurd, but it’s kept several generations of top cosmologists up at night. They call it: the Boltzmann brain paradox. Fabio Pacucci explores this mind-numbing thought experiment. Lesson by Fabio Pacucci, directed by Skirmanta JakaitÄ—, Art Shot.
