Why is anyone searching for videos related to "Self-replicator" if they have no clue what significance it has or where/how it exists.
-
Another cool feature of conway's game of life is that it doesn't expand in a disorganized manner, nor does it die out really fast. Rather, it has just the right balance between life and death to make it incredably interesting and chaotic. In fact it is just this chaos which gives it its name, as when John COnway came up with it, he said it was so unpredictable and complicated, only life could match it in those categories.
-
THis pattern is from something called John Conway's game of life for anyone whom is interested in knowing, (I would suggest doing some research into that, as it is a very interesting "game") What makes it so noteworthy is the fact that, while most unorganized initial pattterns tend to evolve chaotically, sometimes they organize themselves into moving patterns which endlessly traverse the field, (such as the little shapes, which are actually called gliders, that this video mentioned.)
-
@blue30587 So true. I love how they described gliders as tiny shapes that travel in rows, which is probably the worst description I have ever heard. And, if you don't know this already (you being anyone who reads this, not you personally), gemini is not a replicator so the video is a lie

@MadCatMk254 It's a pattern from something called john conway's game of life, which is a form of cellular automata. (yes I know that probably doesn't help much but at least that gives you a starting point of what it is, since the video completely failed to explain it) Truth be told, that pattern they displayed doesn't replicate, it just moves across space and repeats the same number of cells and the same arrangement of them.

ok. . .so. . . . .what is it?
-
Yeah well, that's shit.

If they are going to create and publish a video, it should have some self-contained informational value so that people who see it can at least say that they know what it was about. Of course anyone who wants to learn MORE should follow the link, but the video should stand on its own. They should have started with a zoomed in view of the Game of Life and a couple sentences about the simple patterns that it follows, so the uninitiated can at least appreciate it without having to research it.

The picture was awful, couldn't make anything out or understand what was going on.
