The Simpsons Conspiracy: How They Predict The Future

There is a

conspiracy

that is so intricate that it has gained a cult following. I've heard about her and so have you, but she's getting out of hand. Nine months ago a post appeared on Reddit posing the question: Do The Simpsons

predict

the

future

based on their 2020

predict

ion? Donald Trump's election to Lady Gaga's Super Bowl halftime show the question in this post has been asked many times something really bothered me about this post with zero votes the responses to the second half was a catastrophic avalanche of deranged theories answers based on the idea of ​​a new world order explains that The Simpsons is the vessel used by the ruling elite to tell us what is coming and it was not just this thread the dialogue is everywhere the creator of the show is a freemason Jeffrey Epstein 11 of September these theories are endless but the predictions still leave the question open: how are

they

doing it?

You've probably heard the

conspiracy

theory that the Simpsons can predict everything about the

future

. Who are the most accurate predictions in the world? They predicted the future. Some of these predictions are clearly superficial. Others. They are alarmingly sophisticated, so for the last four months we have been searching for an answer that finally satisfied us, we listened to the common theories and had our own assumptions, we went the extra mile to collect data that we couldn't find on the Hire Statisticians on the Internet and interviewing experts sometimes seemed ridiculous, but when we crunched the numbers, one explanation stood above the rest, so everyone's wrong, one that was left out of the main narrative almost entirely.

This video was meant to be a counterweight to the onslaught of disorder. but it turned out to be the kind of thing that makes you stop looking in the mirror and saying holy shit. This is a story about the undeniable humor of our reality and how the human brain interprets the world around us. What is the mind? just a pulse system or is it something tangible that's mine it doesn't matter what it is it doesn't matter you know I've had this mic for years and this is the first time I've used it that opening was pretty dramatic I'm sorry but I had it Really, the story is super interesting.

I want to show you for years, even the mainstream news has been asking how and

they

seem to have found the simplest explanation, so that's where we start, The Simpsons predicted the first part. The Simpsons predict the future. his explanation is based on a quote from an assistant professor of mathematics Assistant professor of mathematics at the University at Albany this is how logic works The Simpsons is one of the longest running shows of all time with 29 seasons 120,000 jokes 8, 54 jokes per minute says it's just a numbers game, this only comes down to a success rate of about 1.6.

Chalk is too big. They compare it to Star Trek, which has had a similar number of episodes. Star Trek comprises more than 760 television episodes and 13 feature films. Star Trek has also predicted the future, wait a second, what other TV show has over 700 episodes, so these shows have had a better chance of being right with so many predictions. Basically, they just got lucky. They argue that there is nothing special about The Simpsons predicting the future because other shows have done it. It's also luck, I was disappointed too until we looked closer. The theory is based only on this basis that the two shows have a similar number of episodes and that they have a similar number of accurate predictions, but that is not true.

The Simpsons have had more predictions. It comes true that other shows, by far, the answer really feels like something is missing like it's only half the explanation. transporter room get energized and watch this Star Trek predicted as flip phones prepare the Scotty ray aboard flat screen TVs, they're really easy to dismiss as lucky coincidence whatever you want to call it from Star Trek, it's all of them and The Simpsons has some of these two video calls with autocorrect. The coincidence explanation makes sense here, these superficial predictions do not deserve screaming headlines, certainly no one talks about them. not on reddit, they don't get to the conspiracy forums, those forums focus on things that are more elaborate and intricate, alarmingly sophisticated predictions, the reason the narrative is a numbers game it seems only half the truth is because it is the main theory.

He is answering a question that no one asks. Scientists believe they are getting closer to proving the existence of the Higgs boson, the hypothetical subatomic particle believed to supply mass to the matter that makes up our universe. An experiment will resume on Wednesday at the Large Hadron Collider. near Geneva designed to glimpse the so-called God particle in 2012, CERN scientists discovered the missing God particle a previously unknown building block of our universe today known as the Higgs boson fundamentally changes our understanding of the universe a massive discovery to quantum physics there is nothing like pigs in nature this is a completely new type of scientists believe that without the Higgs there would be no gravity and no universe 15 years earlier, in the 1998 episode, Homer wrote this equation on the blackboard for the viewers, it didn't mean anything. was absolute jargon at that stage, so this was a long time ago, no one knew the mass of the hip boson, no one even knew if it existed, the equation predicted the mass of the missing God Particle so accurately that it was only so far away from this breakthrough in understanding the origins of the mass a full 15 years before it was discovered what this scene is, by far the most specific prediction that The Simpsons has ever made with a surprising level of accuracy the question we ask the question that has been asked done for 30 years the answer to this The entire video must be buried in this scene.

The first equation on the board is an attempt to estimate the mass of the Higgs boson and, as a particle physicist who resonated with me, let's do the math. Are you serious? I made my friend Mia watch a hundred episodes of The Simpsons chosen at random from All Seasons I couldn't get over it like the government was listening to everyone's trust Edward Snowden's NSA spying scandal They made the prediction five years before it came true Trump's presidency 17 years we have inherited a huge budget crisis for President Trump Disney buys Fox 19 years statue of David censors 26 years okay, it's not a deep state plot and it's not by chance The show's executive producer, Al Jean , says that they are somehow intentionally predicting these awards -The winning producer and writer has been working on The Simpsons, uh, since the beginning in 1989.

An overwhelming factor that determines the content of the show is that they produce us a year in advance, like the clip I just showed. Actually, we are amateur futurists. As they are? By doing this right, I got all the numbers I counted every time the show had a joke or plot that had the potential to come true. Mia's discoveries were worthy of reshaping the way I perceived the word prediction until now. Viewing this whole spectrum as predictions, but it's actually not fair to say that this is the same as these nine dollars. This is on me.

There was a crazy cell where Bart was holding a pamphlet that said: New York on nine dollars a day, the World Trade Center. This was in 1996. I was at the bottom, so it felt like 9/11. That was crazy and of course not planned. It was a terrible coincidence. Algene the show's current executive producer and former showrunner. Online conspiracy theorists claimed this is proof that the Deep State masterminds behind the show knew 9 11 5 years in advance the episode has nothing to do with the attack it is a magazine with the horizon of New York that's a coincidence according to the Internet there are 43 predictions that The Simpsons got right but I think 13 of them are coincidences.

Looking at the other 30 predictions with a confidence level of 95 and a peace score of around 0.11. I think it's clear that she said many others that totally went over my head and made me realize that she needed to involve a real professional on this other part of the spectrum with 30 unexplained examples by coincidence. What does foreigner mean? I contacted their statistician on Fiverr, but they turn out to be a bot posing as a crypto influencer. Thanks to Fiverr. Luckily, Mia knew a really professional, so this is what they said. Hey, we're moving forward with both of us.

Okay, predicting the future is notoriously difficult, so the fact that The Simpsons managed to do it 30 times could be considered statistically significant and compared to other shows like Star Trek. Futurama South Park The Simpsons stands out, so everyone is wrong, my name is Simon Singh. I live in London and, gosh, I guess for 15 or 20 years I've been writing books about mathematics and physics. Simon also wrote a book about The Simpsons, but he is being humble here, he is a theoretical and particle physicist, he contributed to other discoveries at CERN, where the Higgs boson was discovered. If there's one person who has the answer, it's him when you have such a long-running show that covers so many different topics.

There are bound to be things that turn out to be true about him in due time. Part of getting it right is luck, but the big ones, the ones that are impossible to explain by coincidence, the ones that spark conspiracies on Reddit, aren't predictions at all, so I guess. I contacted the writer of that episode, David . He loved math and he loved physics because he wanted to create this equation and put it on the board, so he called his friend David Shaminovich, who was a professor at Columbia, they had been in high school together and he told David Shermanovic .

Could you make up an equation that would somehow give the correct result. I'm not going to use anecdotal evidence from just one example as a conclusion while Mia was working on her research. I came across something interesting. Our distinguished panel members are with us. Award-winning writers and producers of The Simpsons, our panelists also have an impressive array of degrees in mathematics, computer science, and philosophy, among others. The thing is, you could put together a panel of other types of Simpsons nerds and also like there are a million jokes. about the presidents of the United States, for example, I'm looking at Patrick Veron, who is a presidential scholar, but actually there are a lot of people with different interests and everyone is trying to cram all this stuff in unlike most other shows .

The Simpsons writing team. is largely made up of writers who are highly educated in fields ranging from mathematics to social sciences and because of this they are also very connected to those at The Cutting Edge. Let me play this, so he called his friend David Shimenovich, who is a teacher at Columbia and together in high school, but not only did they know each other since high school, they formed a gang of teenage computer programmers called The Glitch Masters, they even wrote his own computer language and after studying physics at Harvard, Kohan rejected a degree. at the Academy to devote himself to writing.

Shaminovic was just one of his many connections in the field that people in mathematics have today, but this same panel could be held in thousands of places at the same time on different topics, you know when they are asked. came up with the equation for the Higgs boson, they could have come up with any ancient set of Greek symbols, but no, they chose genuine physical constants when combined in the right way and gave a massive Higgs boson that was plausible, so they said here every Once we put math into it we'll show that we have to get it right but we'll make sure it's true we'll make sure it's accurate this mentality goes beyond math for the writers of The Simpsons these aren't just random things these are equations that They have a lot of I thought about them before they appeared on the screen earlier in this video.

I claimed that Blackboard's equation was accurate. He was alone this far, but this amount of error at the particle level is incredibly significant. They were very far from a possible physical point of view. It's not a very good equation The contents of the board were put there by a writer who had a pulse with mathematics Something that's just not in the public eye It wasn't even a prediction It was a corny joke making fun of something very real and very absurd in reality a real satire, it's a pattern and it explains this, this sounds like presidential political talk to me and I know people have talked to you about whether you want to run or not.

I get tired of seeing what's going on with this country and if it got so bad I would never want to completely rule it out Trumphinted at the presidency 12 years earlier The Simpsons made this episode that President Trump once again is a corny joke that makes fun of and something very real and very absurd, but this joke makes fun of something that is not in the public eye. would you do? probably not, why wouldn't you? I just don't think I feel like doing it. I love what I'm doing. I like it a lot. Plus, it doesn't pay that well. yes, here is the whole truth, we can finally leave it alone.

The Simpsons doesn't predict the future, it's just intricate writing. I was left wondering why put in all this effort, so I got my hands dirty. I scraped the web to find everything. the data I could find and compared it to Mia's findings, hundreds of lines of code later the answer was revealed here is a chart of all the accurate predictions made by The Simpsons sorted by season, we found data that someone else collected and that I linked description, but using it we discovered that it takes about 13 years for The Simpsons predictions to come true. On average, if you look closely, a pattern merges a pattern that follows the user rating of each episode, the show is a satire of American culture, they are making fun of us, that's the point, good writing is socially, politically, scientifically aware, the writers want This is not only more fun for them but it makes the series more interesting for us, at least according to IMDb.

Here is my latest case. It seems complicated, but stay with me. Each of these lines is from a writer for The Simpsons, some only wrote one season and never returned others wrote and took a break for several seasons but returned in his book The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets Simon includes a list of some of the writers with long titles. What do you think mainly happens when these writers? One of the things about jokes and probably philosophy and maybe math is that once you're done with them, they seem obvious throughout a 2001 episode in which Homer was trying to stop his local baseball team, the Isotopes, from will move to Albuquerque. two years later, Albuquerque's minor league team was named Isotopes, the city held a vote to determine the team name, the team president even admitted that the name came from the series, our explanation is not general, there are some unique exceptions here.

Statistics are strange and can lead to truly absurd coincidences. New York City has a population of around 9 million people and with that many people, a one in a million event should occur nine times a day. There, as always, there is room for disagreement, I hope. I presented a convincing argument. I really felt a little silly making this video, but I posted a promo and after seeing some of the comments that came up, I was really worried that conspiracy theories might be a real problem and seeing them proliferate, it's not. something that I love. I don't blame people for confusing complexity with conspiracy, especially since conspiracies can be fun, but often the truth can be even better, thanks for watching.
