Counterexamples

The video tutorial explains the concept of counterexamples, which are used to disprove statements or hypotheses. It provides an example involving the number 5.5 to illustrate how a counterexample can invalidate a conclusion. The speaker humorously digresses into a story about basketball and a fictional friendship with Michael Jordan, adding a light-hearted touch to the lesson.
