DanJ No, we’re also CPU limited.

We are, in fact, very much CPU limited. The electroencephalogram (EEG) machine detects brain waves in the range of 2 Hz to 100 Hz. Not megahertz (MHz), not gigahertz (GHz)... just hertz (Hz). If we could only execute one instruction at a time, our brains would be really, really slow. Where our brains excel is that they are massively, massively parallel. You know how most modern computer CPUs have 4 to 8 cores (and a few CPUs have 60 or more)? Imagine having hundreds of thousands of cores, all operating at once. The end result is that our brain is estimated to have the equivalent of about 16,800 GHz of computing power, even though each of those individual "cores" is so slow.

But a computer can't get distracted thinking about potato chips. Mmmm... What was I saying again?

SpearM75503 But wouldn't that mean that we should theoretically excel at multitasking? I thought multi-core CPUs in PCs usually means you can assign different tasks to different cores, and execute them simultaneously. (-> the more cores, the better the multitasking - compare that to hundreds of thousands of cores) I don't really know much about that so I'd love to hear more.

The problem with that comparison is that a cpu core can process a lot of different functions. The same core can switch from solving a math equation to rendering a scene or anything else a computer does. The brain is made up of many many different cores (in this analogy) but each of those cores can only process a specific thing. In other words, the specific "cores" that process smells would be flat out incapable of regulating breathing while you sleep. while multitasking, parts of the brain that are used for both tasks can't keep up and have to completely drop one task then pick it back up later.

Ah shit,no more power

My Science teacher was trying to convince the whole class that we only use 10% of our brain and most of us were like "then how come I can move both hands at the same time and think about eating that Big Mac"

I thought the myth was that we only use 10% of our brain's capacity. Not the areas of the brain but what we are capable with it. Still sounds farfetched either way

People who believe that we only use 10% of our brains are almost as bad as flat earthers

@@megapapa6926 yeah we use 11% XD

._.

I always understood the 10% thing to be about potential. Obviously we use all of our brain but maybe we only use it to operate at 10% effectiveness of maximal possibility. The movie limitless talks about this in the way that full access to all knowledge one ever consumed even through periphery, instead of what the movie Lucy tries to say. The latter being where this stupid quote is most commonly known form

(brain==you) trembling in fear 💀

Ignoring the fact we're post apocalyptic and have receded from our peak, one of the key things of at least our accessible human mind is redundancy, not how to process all information perfectly, but rather how to process the most information with the least effort - perhaps part of the brain is only accessible in alpha wave sleep, perhaps we shut out periphery information to get a clearer focused image - our entire culture is ignore the 5% if we can get 95 that's good enough - let alone high functioning individuals and deviations We don't use it all consciously. We don't need two arms or opposable thumbs and yet it makes us better. We don't use 100% of our brain, I doubt even 50, and that's just physical matter - even if we could use it all the energy it would take - 10x more than we already do and it's already the most demanding organ in the body, why would we use 10x the energy on a task that requires a quarter of what we already use?

@@QuixoticCowboy It would be more similar to how you only use part of your computer software at all times. A lot of software doesn't need to be active most of the time to do what you want.

Nah there's a specific control centre for that kind of stuff. The brain still looks after the body in a jaeger- otherwise the wouldn't use control panels etc.

@@Nempo13 Heart can still function without any input from the brain, lungs probably don't but devs could do some life support just in case.

@@aurelius_varro true but what's easier adding another pilot with tweaks to the tech already their or designing a precise life support system that won't move from the positions on the pilot in the middle of combat

The main problem with Jeagers seems to be the hands. They have a lot of sensors and is really taking for a single person to command the 2. A pilot is fully capable to command one hand on it's own without other pilots help just like the Chinese Jeager. Legs will too be problematic due to the many sensors you need to have so the robot can retain balance but I haven't seen any explicit statements about them. They can always make many of this function automatic, but they run the problem of the AI not distinguishing between important and unimportant task. For instance let say the Jeager has detected a bus under its foot and decide to step sideways to avoid it, but there is a giant monster charging their way and the Jeager needs a strong footing to tank the hit. So the pilot and the AI are waiting time on deciding this simple move.

Say hello to your friend muscle memory

This comment may look complicated but we can understand more on this than the video. Sir you better suited as a teacher cause I, who has no fundamental understanding and interest neuropsychology,made me learn more than the video wish to portray. Kudos to you sir🤗🤗🤗😊😊😊

*dramatic music starts*

Vsauce intensifies

Actually all those things become implicit. Is like if you see something going to your face. You don't think about covering your head. You don't think at all, you brains perceives the threat and acts on its own accordingly

Is it awkward that I actually thought about checking right mirror, signal, turn wheel clockwise, back, and straighten up the car by turning a bit more counter-clockwise, then back to forward? IS MY IMPLICIT MEMORY EXPLICIT?! IS THAT A GOOD THING?

drunkredninja That is the most important part

Changing lanes is a poor example. If you make aggressive lane changes, two turns in opposite directions is needed. If you make gentle lane changes, depending on velocity, only a slight tilt of the wheel will move you over. Straightening the wheel ceases the lateral drift.

JenoPaciano sooooo. Brains on raid 1?

Wouldn't the Drift possibly be a liability then? It's not that the software has a random 5% chance to misinterpret a command, but that it misinterprets 5% of unique commands. If the Drift drives pilots to provide identical input commands, then if one is misinterpreted, without corrective intervention, the other will be misinterpreted as well. I suspect we might also see 3 pilots if the intent was error-correction, as the software would assume a single outlier command was an error, and the 2x or 3x repeated command the correct one.

EruditeW0lf Three pilots would be better if the primary intent was error correction, but only if all of those pilots could agree on a command. Another possibility: if you can somehow link two pilots' brains and influence their brains to produce the same command, you could also setup the Jaeger to perform the mathematical average of those commands. So, if I say jump left sixty meters and the other pilot says jump left forty, it jumps fifty. That would produce a system where pilots who were more "in sync" with one another would have superior performance. It would take some fancy processing to produce an average command from two thoughts, but it should be possible assuming mental commands can be translated into data at all.

Crescent Rose I suspect that's the point of linking their brains together instead of letting them act independently. That sort of technology is, for me, beyond speculation. I have no idea how it would work. But I do know that whatever commands come out of linked brains would need to be interpreted into data at some point.

This is a good theory, And it explains why 2 pilots are used instead of 3 ( in general). Because in the first movie there is a crew of 3, but this is rare. Bigger crews need everyone to be compatible with everyone else. For a crew of 2 there is only 1 pair of minds need to link, for 3 pilots, 3 pairs must link, 4 pilots, 6 pairs and number of pairs blows up rapidly there after. If being drift-compatible is very rare as stated in the movie then crews of 2 and rare crews of 3 make sense.

Or railguns.

Only drawback is that would makes one hell of a bang.

Kill the Kaiju graphic artists.

just use some tungsten rods dropped from orbit

Great idea, except for the fact that Kaiju can move in an unpredictable manner. Consider how long such objects would fall for. I mean, the Kaiju would probably still be in the blast radius, but you do have to account for the targeting and all that, and you'd do a hell of a lot of damage to the surrounding areas. They also seem to move pretty fast in water, so not sure you could target them while swimming. Additionally, that would create Tsunami's that would do a ton of damage to cities. So, yes, super cool idea, with incredibly costly ramifications.

AT LEAST CHOOSE A GOOD FACE DANG -- KH

I take one from every episode

Kayn96 the simplest answer for the two pilot system is that it makes pacific rim unique compared to most mecha shows that only need one pilot to operate. That and it gives opportunity for dramas and stuff. The thing is, the two brain system is just needlessly complicated and stupid since they already have a better alternative; body mimicking. Brain interface only makes sense if the body isn't moving, but if the body still have to move, then you might as well just mimic the body movement. The jaeger pilots still have to move their body, thus making the brain interface useless. As for commands on other stuff, that can voice operated or brain activated as well. However, activating just a few functions would not need two brains. An anime show, Darling in The Franxxx showed a much more logical explanation for a two pilot setup. Oh and they didn't move their while body since they just sit in the cockpit so it makes sense why the system was needed. One pilot (the female) acts as the subconscious mind that automatically moves the body based on the command of the conscious mind while another (the male) acts as the conscious mind that gives said command. Compatibility is important as the female has to be able to anticipate what the male wants to do and the male has to understand the capability of the female.

I like both systems and both explanations of you make more sense than the actually explanation in the video.

Syazwan Dzulkifli,but does it require a male and female? in the first movie there was 2 males piloting the same Jaeger

Male and Female Pilots are the rule in the Anime Darling in the FranXX not this Movie.

Syazwan Dzulkifli That’s a great analogy to explain exceptional male-female relationships, too. We are greater than the sum of our parts when we trust & support each other’s unique capabilities.

The problem I see with this specific test is that cars when going doing slight turns will pull the wheel on their own back in the straight position. So while technically yes the wheel does need to turn back, people don’t generally need to do it themselves and likely don’t think about, which means when doing it eyes closed and manually with no actual wheel, you’d do what you do naturally, let it turn itself back. One of things learned in defensive other driving courses is that if you need to manually turn the wheel back the other direction, you’ve turned it too far to begin, something that can easily be taught with large figure 8s.

Elliott Barth uhhhhhhh... no its because the brain can't handle controlling something so big. When piloting you us a neural connection with a Jaeger to control it but it's two much to control with a single brain so they used two pilots to share the neural load and even in the new movie advanced technology can't help change that because the Jaegers are too big(scrapper is really small though so what ever

If the Jaegers weren't bipedal human-shaped mecha (eg: quadrupedal, like a dog or cat), then that sort-of makes sense and had it split between controlling different parts or functions (like modern military fighting vehicles), but people have evolved to move in a human-shaped body and so it really doesn't.

Jeff NME according to lore yeah at does

@@kingofthemonsters4504 according to science and basic common sense it doesnt

Dungeon Boi sextuplets?

adam because it looks cool

I imagine the explanation would be something related to being able to better focus on one action if you vocalize it and it could assist in keeping in sync in a stressful situation.

Yes, look to be doing a lot of thinking through the actions. I guess if they would have add some logical science to the movie it would have been better

Voice commands for the computer system? Take for instance the "elbow rocket" You call out the command and the computer sets it up instead of you having to do it, then you trigger it when you're ready. Its like having someone take a bullet, load it into a mag, insert the mag into a gun, chamber the round for you, and then all you have to do is to aim and pull the trigger

+435now bit of a stretch but i suppose.

Nuclear reactors, you have all the energy you want (dissipation of heat however...), with enough powerful motors (electric will suffice??) and thin enough armor... maybe?

That, and consider the anatomy. A gigantic humanoid would need gigantic legs and feet to sustain balance and weight. If it has legs as thin as a humans' legs, but has an insanely disproportionate weight distribution, it'd fall over. Or we could use jets to aid in balance but it'd add more weight anyway.

This. I’m more interested in how they managed to conjure up enough titanium/steel or whatever metal that’s required to build those Jaegers, let alone one. Like in the Gundam universe, this was solved by mining in the asteroid belts. They also used ultra compact nuclear fission reactors the size of refrigerators to power the Gundam Mechs. Also logistically how do they manage those Jaegers.

As large as they are in the movies and with the proportions they have, they would collapse under their own weight with most materials.

since we're working with mechanic not biology all can be compensated electricity is basically already un-affected by gravity, so no problem with "blood supply" you can use fiber optic instead of electric wire if the latency is too high and that because it's metal it won't be crushed on its own weight given smart engineering

@Because Science there are some really interesting concepts in older science fiction novels *Forever War* looks at a soldier from the 1970s or 80s who's recruited into a new space force. In order to get to other places in space, the ships have to accelerate for some period of time to reach light speed, and decelerate on the other side. For the soldiers, they accelerate for a week or two, spend a week at lightspeed, fight, and come home, mission time a month or two, but because of relativity, it's a decade later on earth. The next mission, which they perceive as several months, lands them 50 years in the future. Every time they come back they get upgraded gear and ships. His two-year enlistment lasts for something like a thousand years on earth due to spending most of it at near-relativistic speeds. *Old Man's War* is based off the concept that instead of training young people to fight, use old people's collective life experience. Recruit people at 65 on retirement, spend ten years growing a clone body, then at 75 transferring consciousness to the new, enhanced body. Build a computer interface into the brain so the new bodies can interact with technology. The book also explores the idea of how you'd build a space elevator, and some other cool ideas *Starship Troopers* pioneered (or popularized?) the idea of Power Armor, and how you build an exoskeleton to work with the human body. Most modern interpretations of armor (Iron Man, Halo, Warhammer, etc) draw inspiration from Heinlein's ideas. Please ignore the campy movie, look at the *book.* How far has modern military tech come towards realizing the ideas of Starship Troopers? I know DARPA and the US Army have powered legs to augment carrying capacity, and some medical versions allow people with paralysis to walk with augmentation. There are some very good ideas and concepts out there, and many of them have seeped into the realm of reality already

+Because Science Fixed it now, my bad.

Anthony Aranas Goddamnit why did I continue reading the second paragraph in the tune of All-Star

That's the trap. Muhahahaha.

IIRC it's established in the first movie that the normal case is for Jager pilots to train as extensively as possible outside actual combat using the drift system prior to actual engagement with the enemy, but that the specifics of the depicted emergency situation negated the chance for that.

I think the fact that the main character argued that Gypsy Danger is nuclear powered is that it would still run if all the electronics didn't work. This means that it would still run if the Kaiju fired a second EMP. Actually on second tought, everything I just said is BS.

Yeah, that line has always bothered me, since Gypsy clearly has digital controls and not analog controls. Like the User Interface is completely digital. I think the more likely reason it works is that it was powered down, and there was no electricity running through the circuits at the time for the EMP Blast to fry them with, but I'm not sure that would actually stop an EMP from frying the circuits in something. You forgot a few questions though. C: What does the Pacific Rim Universe have against alloys? There is no way iron would be able to withstand all the damage Gypsy Damage sustains, let alone support the Jaeger's weight. D: How does Gypsy Danger survive the wall of water falling it when it's already severely damaged? Shouldn't that wall of water crashing down on a Jeager that was already structurally unsound have destroyed Gypsy Danger? E: How was Gypsy Danger able to use a boat like a bat? Boats aren't built to survive the kind of strain being put on that boat. Like Gypsy just pulling it out of the water initially should have snapped the boat like a twig. Dragging it along the ground, it should have snapped in half if it managed to somehow survive being pulled out of the water. Swinging it upwards from the ground, if it had somehow survived all that other stuff, should have caused it to like explode in Gypsy's hands. A single blow to the Kaiju, if it survived everything else by some miracle, should have wrecked it completely. F: How did the flying Kaiju fly so high without a tail? Most flying creatures with tails kind of require that for stability in flight. I could understand it many getting a little off the ground, but getting up as high as it did without a tail? That doesn't seem possible. G: How did Gypsy Danger survive that fall when they did the fuel purge way too early? Should have done that like almost right before they hit the ground, not 5000 feet up.

Ronindrix I never thought of this. . . . DO THIS!

PrankCaster They actually brought that up in the movie, I think. They don't have to talk, but it'd be weird to telepathically communicate. Plus, it's for the audience.

PrankCaster because movie needs to movie

Habit, you don't just stop talking after months or years of military training.

If two people are deaf, and having a conversation, why do they laugh out loud? Because it's nature.

Nightmare Gamings It's because the response lag from remote piloting would mean the Jaegers would be less effective in combat. Plus, if your comms fail, you've just lost a very expensive Jaeger.

Being on-site and sensing the jaeger's movement yourself in real-time helps in controlling a robot form that's notoriously hard to control. That, and the aforementioned response lag

as a remote control hobbyist myself, i hope i'm in machine, i can response quicker, kaiju always had unexpected action as shown in the movie

because of lagg.

just like how in Real Steel, Hugh Jackman controlled Atom physically himself to beat Zeus

Konark Madan maybe because of the fact that there are three pilots instead of just two if one gets out of sync it causes hiccups. Or maybe one pilot only controls the extra arm

Well to be fair, otachi was kinda made to fight them with his claw tail basically being a third arm to counter them. Or it was just plot. yea

at 12 tonnes by chinook, 165 choppers?

Long as they're both running Ubutu. Should be fine. It'll cost extra if the other guy's brain is Apple.

for your characteristics question, it would be a yes probably, view it this way, you as a normal person, when you spend an amount of time with your friends, unconsciously you will begin to act or talk a little like them, and so will they with you, take this a bit further with the drift, where you share memories, activities and thoughts, and you probably would be acting like your partner after some time

i actually dont think its possible to carry a jaeger like that at all, no matter how many helicopters you had available. simply because youll be running into a space issue with the amount of choppers youd need, theyd have to fan out quite a bit in order to safely fly alongside one another. but that also means that the farther away a chopper is from the center of the formation, the worse its actual contribution to lift will become, as its trying to lift at a worse and worse angle. someone less lazy would have to do the actual math here but im pretty sure there is liteterally no way to carry a humanoid object weighing ~2 kilotonnes with any kind of man made helicopter fleet without having to seriously bend the space time continuum in regards to how many of these helicopters are allowed to occupy the same space at the same time -.-

The visuals of almost 500 helos lifting off, hooking cables and trying todance in coordinated flight into position to lift 3 jaegers to destination and the inevitable carnage and apoteosic destruction that would follow would have been grandiose. Call mister Bay, and reserve all the rendering farms of Hollywood..

thats the reason of the rift, they link brains so they act at the same time with the same movements, as they are going to enter battle they prepare a link stance so their brains coordinate, when they are not battling or preparing they remain connected but each pilot still has his own separated motor functions.

You take your completely logical idea and get out. We'll have none of that here. All kidding aside, it's because it's a movie and the writer thought it was a good idea. It's not something we'd actually do. If a giant monster like that attacked, we'd blast it with missiles and if it's hide was too tough for that, we'd shoot metal telephone poles at it via a rail gun. As totally awesome as giant robots are, they wouldn't be very effective for war.

Because it won't work... I used to play mechmarrior with my mate and one would "drive" and the other would shoot and the driving would move when the other wanted to shoot and it was a huge mess. It only works if you have turrets thatove and fire independently.

To take it even further, why not use body motion capture instead of detecting neural motor signals? Less taxing to the brain since the Jaeger will literally just copy your body movement, no need for neural interface. We've already seen that the cockpit is a "3D treadmill". Turn weapons activation into voice commands. Have the second pilot/AI work as the "turret gunner".

There was a two player mode in N64 GoldenEye where one person shoots and the other person runs and aims and it was insanely difficult. It was super cool though. At one point I zoomed in via scope at the moment a shot was fired and the zoom followed the shot perfectly. I'd probably divide a Jaeger into legs/balance and arms weapons, but it certainly can be done.

So "Ultra Instinct" is literally just a name applied to how one is expressly intended to use martial arts training? I knew Toriyama didn't really understand real world martial arts that well (it's blatantly obvious in his fight choreography) but that's a step beyond... Edit: I thinks it's kinda obvious, but I haven't been following Super for the record.

There was already a term for it, too. Mushin, meaning "no mind". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushin_(mental_state)

Pro gamers remap those keys to the arrow keys...

You forget the maximum speed that information can travel is c or in other words the universal constant of the speed of light, it is possible that in the Pacific Rim universe tat humanity managed a way to send information at near light speed if not at light speed, and synchronize all the jager systems to work as quickly and effectively as possible or even predict the actions of the pilots, and if I remember there is also an onboard computer to select your weaponry mode so that means that the computer is adding sharing the work load. After all machine learning could a computer predict your actions rather accurately

Because the studio had a hard time selling the "handjob pilots" idea

Well, Power Rangers do have 5 or even 6 pilots /s But seriously now, the closer you are to each other the better, did you know a GPU starts to loose performance if a PCIE extension longer than 30cm is used? 30cm, PCIE 3.0 have 1000MB/s data rate....32GB/s Bandwith. Now imagine instead of a GPU, a BRAIN. I'm pretty sure distance would be a terrible bottleneck.

Makes more sense than Darling and the Franxx at least...

Not entirely loosing individuality. They still seem to be able to talk and think individually. And why "not have anymore implicit memory than a normal one"? I would expect the link to access both pilots' implicit memories, effectively doubling the tasks that the pair can execute without thinking. I thought of Idris Elba's quip that he doesn't bring anything into the drift to be a response to the hard-headed kid (comparatively speaking) that he was talking to, saying that he could be a compatible team member with even a forceful personality.

mmmm if you say "One Big Brain" that a Point BUUUT .... , yes, they share common memories, but remember the brains is selective with what it remembers, if it doesn't think it's important, it will not be retained and space will still be there. Also you don't need AAALLLL the memories, just the one that make sense to a given action

Hozimina You basically restated every significant point mentioned in this video in a long winded more complex way.

"they would soon loose all individuality" well, in the movie jaegers were working for years with the same couples and we don't see any crippling or visible mind melding. We don't have any real world experience with "rifting"

Thexsoar the Bearded - Interesting point. Multiple core CPUs and multi-CPU PCs don’t work “faster” but rather process more at the same time compared to a single core/single CPU. However, one person explained to me that multi-core CPUs were not better than a multi-CPU setup because a single CPU with multiple cores is utilizing one memory address register. Multi-CPUs motherboards have a memory address register for each CPU. So, back when they first introduced dual-core processors, a dual CPU system was actually able to do more work at any given time.

I think the idea is they don't operate faster, but they do the work faster by splitting the load. Two men can paint a wall faster than one man by doing separate parts of the wall, that kind of thing.

What is your deffinition of faster here? The CPUs wont get any faster, correct, but the task they are handling will be done faster, so, your right having two 3ghz CPUs running together wont make them two 4.5ghz, or make them process stuff faster, but what is being processed will be done faster.

It depends entirely on the software, or in this case the "task". Because Science is wrong in his conclusion, the reason they have two pilots be connected subconsciously to pilot one Jaeger is not because they need two people's brains. This is even said in the opening sequence of the first movie. It's because the "Interface to Jaeger System" was too much for a single pilot. They don't need to add more CPU/Brainpower, they simply need to fix the Interface. In short, its bad software. I believe the Interface is somewhat of an early/alpha build, something they whipped up as fast as possible to control the attacks. I believe the Interface connects the host to all the functions of the Jaeger unit (which there would be thousands of things happening in the background), so its too much for one person. But why? Well, because our brains actually automate most of our bodies functions (a la sympathetic nervous system) so its too much of a toll to do that even on our small squishy bodies, yet alone a large metal robot. So they actually need to fix the Interface, the main issue, by using computers to do the autonomic neural activities, and using only the pilots to pilot the Jaeger in terms of combat. That way the program won't be bottlenecked by the lack of skilled Pilots and incompatibilities between two different brains. Popular Japanese Manga/Anime has addressed this issue as said above. For example, the EVA Program in Neon Genesis, where the pilots body's become the brain of the cyborg giants. I was hoping that's where they would take this series, but a las, it has evolved into something less ambitious, more linear, and rather dull. I think Del Toro moving away as the director, and working on the side as a producer probably has a lot to do with this.

Neo could do it easily and could slow down time around the kaiju so they would be defenseless and easier to punch into orbit

Which Holmes are we talking about? The original Sherlock was a fantasized detective with very little fighting skill, who would analyze the situation and use deductive reasoning to find answers. Whereas the new Sherlock Holmes keeps himself fit and fights with a mental advantage, that allows him to play out a fight in his head. Much like chess he predicts many moves ahead, the steps that his opponent will take, to counter and ultimately win the fight with as little physical output as possable. So, BECAUSE SCIENCE, would this be an accurate assumption to say that the newer Sherlock Holmes could out think a kaiju, and fight it effectively.

Their conscience is mostly separated, their memories united, somehow

I think it's that their subconscious are connected allowing them to want to mostly move in the same manner. A lot of times you make minor bodily adjustments subconsciously based on multiple factors so the two people being connected in that way would make their body subconsciously move in a similar fashion since they're feeling each other's impulses. However their conscience movements would still be separately invoked. Being aware of each other's intentions they can purposely move at the same time but they don't have to
