Top 10 Paradoxes That Mess With Your Brain
Well, if you ignore the title and think you won't need a trip to the brain repair shop, then you're in for a surprise.I was thinking of the holographic principle, which makes it sound like we are living in a world that is not real and that seems out of touch with reality. After taking steps, the perspective seems to get more distant, distant, and distant until there's no distance at all. The path is infinite.
I mention the holographic principle because I was wondering if it actually applies in real life. Sure, it's called a paradox, but I'm just saying. Maybe what I just said is stupid...
In simple words, think of going from point A to point B. You start at point A, and first, you must cross half the distance. But to cross half the distance, you must first cross one-quarter of half the distance. To do that, you must first cover one-sixth of one-quarter of the distance, and to do that, you must cover one-eighteenth of the distance, and so on. So, you must cover an infinite number of distances to get to point B.
But to do so, you must follow the rule: "ignore all rules."
(Since I have no cards, let the sentence after or before the period be one side of a card. This is not part of the paradox. The next sentences are a part.)
The sentence after the period is true. The sentence before the period is a lie.
Suppose you take one part of a super cool, destroying battle cruiser and replace it. The cruiser will still remain the same, right? But if you do this over and over until only the last part of the ship remains, it still remains the original. So, all the parts are the original.
However, if you replace the last original part (what else to call it?) and replace it, it should still remain the original cruiser. If you assemble the rest of the parts into another cruiser, then both cruisers should be the same, right?
Imagine you build a septillion-dollar time machine and time travel to kill your granddad (who I'll call GD) before GD bears your parent. So when you kill GD, your parent won't exist. In turn, you won't exist. This means your GD was killed by someone who doesn't exist. But how is this possible?
It's so weird - if you go back in time to change anything, the universe will destroy itself because it will be done so you don't go back in time to do it. Confusing, huh?
If there's intelligence out there, where are they?
It states that logical reasoning needs higher senses (like winning a game of chess) than motor activities (like walking around), but in computers, it's the opposite.
