My dad explained me this a long time ago.. he would tell me how hard his path to school was without revealing anything
-
All I needed was the Child level and was like "Okay GOT IT. Thank you"
-
Videos like these tell me there is so much in this world I know nothing about.
-
The teen version was simpler than the child one honestly. Also that ten year old is very smart.
-
That dialogue with the child was so deep, I'm impressed that she gets it and by how well explained it was.
-
I'm just blown away with the example he gave to the child with the puffin. So simple, yet it really just explains everything.
-
Please I beg you Wired... Don't stop this series and make them more, i really enjoy the multi-disciplinary people coming together and sharing this amazing concepts which I've never even heard of in such an interesting and articulate way, it keeps me going.
-
As a teacher, I have to admire Amit's skill for explanation!
-
This guy was so good at explaining this topic. I bet he's a good teacher. Also this whole video series is genius because you are introducing complex topics to the masses in a way that they can understand and digest. Love this, keep it up Wired!
-
At first I thought Chelsea's analogy with the "magic trick" was wrong. Then I realized that the girl is smarter than I, because a "magic trick" in its entirety is something completely normal and understandable, but since the magician only lets you see what you're supposed to see, you receive proof that something is real without proof how it possibly could be real!
-
that child level explanation was absolutely brilliant and it was really awesome to see the girl understand such a complicated topic in their own correct way
-
I need to see if Sahai has any publicly available lectures or tutorial videos. I love his aura of calmness and his gentle tone. It makes it easier to learn in a way.
-
It’s so nice to see his past students talk about what a great professor he was. If only all educators had this much passion towards their subject matter and enjoyed imparting knowledge to others this much.
-
I had Sahai for the CS theory course at UCLA and he was a great teacher. Perfect choice for this video! Go Professor Sahai!
-
In my last final exam, I managed a beautiful proof to my professor, and convinced him that I had zero knowledge.
-
It revels very true about how growing up affects your way of thinking, and how not everyone can become a scientist. The child cares more about why. The teen is confused, while the college student only cares about the result. The grad student comes back to why, but with for what specifically in the real world. The expert is actually a child with a deeper interest in why, mathmatically and philosophically. Well, it seems to be true that scientists never grow up
-
The level 1 proof was the hardest since he had to take something complex and make it simple. A sign of a great teacher 👍
-
In cyber security, Zero-Knowledge Proofs have HUGE prospects and applicability. But Dr. Sahai's example of social interaction and using ZKP's to prevent mistrust is a Blackmirror-like scenario in which social interactions are based on personal criteria of trust and, if you know you can by your own criteria not trust a person, you know that they must have broken one of these criteria, giving you knowledge about the other person that you would not be supposed to have.
-
it's so interesting hearing how the younger people interpreted this. One associated Magic with it and the teenager was thinking in terms of protecting a source. Very interesting.
-
I love how epic it is when two PhDs dive so deep into a topic that only they really understand what they're talking about
