btw you can actually LEARN anything without school. this professor throws fact bombs one after another.

btw here is the full video :)

Oh yeah I remember the good old times when an average IQ slave could just go to Aristotle and just be like "teach me bro"

He also said AI is a scam... Very skeptic about him.

well the market kinda is

The most ironic thing is, he’s teaching this lesson in a school.

And then when u finish ur studies nobody want to intern u or give u chance to get experience

my goat

Wtf thinks you need school to learn anything? You think schools have a monopoly on learning?

Prof. @xueqinjiang

Bombed by th Truth, apprenticeship is the only way to get actual skills.

This argument breaks down when you get into engineering. He's right about most fields. But you're not going to get mentored in calculus.

I think he just unwittingly illustrated the problem with the 1st system. "All" you have to do is find a good teacher... So how do you know whether the person that you can find is actually a "good teacher"? Also, how does the teacher know whether you're actually worth mentoring?🤨

i fw professor jiang a lot, and from the clipped portion, he's right that you can learn anything but, you have to look at the people who create knowledge. most famous researchers i think of in history (gauss, einstein, watson, shockley, feinmen, newton etc) were professors+phds

Though, don’t underestimate the power of books, existing resources (and Harvard)! "«Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all yourself.»"

He's not a professor. He's Chinese psy-op.

I get the essence of the argument, but this is how you end up with doctors telling you to bleed with leeches or to drink hot water to cure pneumonia. You need schools to administer the latest knowledge, tech, techniques, remove out dated knowledge etc. it's more complicated

A toddler can't know the meaning of a certain word without proper experience and observation of how the word works in action. Learning is when you observe, put yourself in a perspective of you experiencing the knowledge, and then applying yourself through an act and embrace it

Claiming that all people can learn anything you suggest them to only learn the skills applicable to only one occupation? How can students learn what they want to learn? That tutoring (or mentoring) is missing in schools is a budget problem. You're not describing alternatives.

Is this a typical teacher? He doesn’t show any science… he just claims things

More and more videos of this person. Always the same pattern: false statements, false reasonning, a bit of truth and a lot of nonsense. This video is based on the french revolution based idea: everybody is equal ("égalité"), and 250 years later, this has been 100% proven FALSE!

One of my Dr's at the uni said something like this! However, he then said: The 1st system will result in a tiny number of qualified people and we need many given the population we got today! We need more integration between the 2 systems, instead of choosing one over the other!

If you find any teacher to teach you, how do you know if that teacher knows what he is teaching? Schools are not just there to teach, but also there to vet who have the knowledge to teach. It aggregates the teachers in a society into one place so that you can find teachers.

aptitude tests exist for reason... and is he advocating for child labor? hes chinese, of course he is.

part of the reason for this is the exponential increase in human population. modern education system works because hundreds and thousands of people can study at one place instead of everyone trying to find a mentor. is it a better system? no! how do you still beat the system: find a mentor, be an apprentice. because everyone else thinks that is primitive.

Your mentor won't teach you how to read and write, how to speak a second language, won't teach you Math, world History, Geography, the basic Biology that you need to become a doctor. Using the worse example of schools doesn't define schools as a hole. They are important, a lot.

lol sometimes this guy has points but majority of the time he just straight up yaps about stuff he knows nothing about.

Up to grade 10-11 school is just a formatting machine to give pupils the same basic knowledge that is required to be functional in a certain culture. After grade 11, school becomes a more and more selective filter to select the minds that are capable of learning and using downloaded information. A kind of filter + quality control. On the job activity will make the person productive. No school will make you readily up to date and functional in real life. Experience and performance will build up on the job.

When the students asked, “Are you brainwashing us too?”, he should have said yes. He’s a very important educator, but to really understand what he’s saying, you need to understand Nietzsche; otherwise it comes across as very manipulative.

Omg, that professor sounds like a knowledge machine 💥

"stupid students do the dishes", Jensen Huang hold my Nivida chips. Jensen Huang was a dish washer at Dennis's

You cut the most interesting part of the video, now I need to know the title.

I have found, after listening to almost every one of his lectures on Predictive History, that his most valuable offering is curiosity. This man hasme reading Dostoyevsky, Kant, Homer, Dante, Etc.. Before him, I wasn't remotely curious about such literature.

So simple: at age 12 know what you want to do and find a mentor to take you under their wing, just like that.

@Harvard and @harvardmed are both an overpriced scam. This guy is right. Furthermore, ZERO patients give a singular solitary fuck what your GPA, MCAT score, USMLE or any other exam scores were. They care if you care <- Read that again.

He has a lot of strong political takes -- predictive history on YouTube

no this is bullshit
