Thank you Frank. Your appreciation of and encouragement for maintaining contact with reality is greatly appreciated. While ManyWorld's and string theory's reality can only be surmised at an imaginary level your work on anyons and time crystals put novel fundamental concepts on trial physically. Cudos! Funny that the greatest intellectual fun is in the consideration of physical fundamentals.
Thank you for this podcast. Frank Wilczek has been one of the most important physicists of the last 30 or so years. It's good to know what someone of his caliber is thinking.
sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost my password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me.
Dr. Carroll, I read your book "The Big Everything". Great and easy read for non-physicist here. (Actually EE grad) I wish you would expound on Everett's interpretation more without fear of losing audience attention. We are ready to know the implications of simultaneous splits or divergence of realities based on wave function interaction and amplification, uniformly distributed across all quantum systems. I took a list of seven houses to visit and found I was returning to areas where I had already visit wasting time. I told my wife, being the passenger on the GPS who wishing some app could have prioritized house based on distance from each other. I explained, that actually some reality exist where we serendipitously visited every house in the most efficient manner based on chances of us ordering the housing on sticky notes differently and thus saved some time. Unfortunately, I ended, we did not resume that path. If my understanding is incorrect, feel free to correct. That is the basis for scientific knowledge. You have a good way of explaining the density the topic implies in a neat orderly fashion with some context of interpretation based on our use of ontological terminology. Thank you!!
Sean Carroll, “for the people who are not physicists, what are the fundamental laws of physics” haha that’s why i love your videos. We need people who are not physicists to understand these concepts too! Especially topics like this are so essential to understand the world around us. Thank you for all your incredible work!
So glad my past and future light-cones includes your videos! Dr. Sean, what research area would you recommend for a post grad in AI willing to delve into fundamental physics research?
Where can I see how physicists "see" particles and "read" measurements of their interactions. Is there a video that shows and explains the equipment that is used to come up with the values expressed so confidently by physicists. It strains the mind to visualize how particles can be manipulated so I would really appreciate an effort by an animator or videographer to show how you physicists actually do your jobs in coming up with these facts about reality. How does one "read" the image smashing particles to come up with values of the nth degree?
Good discussion. Frank Wilczek has contributed in various fields of physics which makes his perspective so interesting. It would be nice to invite someone from the condensed-matter field in order to discuss many-body physics and emergent phenomena in matter.
Regarding the question "if the universe is a simulation, what is the simulator made of?", of course in this model the simulator would be self-describing and thus self-hosting and self-booting, where the simulator is indeed simulating itself simultaneously.
It is sad that u will be no more at Caltech.It is excellent that the mindscape podcast will continue. Hope u will talk more about yr research about gravity emerging from QM and about before the Big Bang,i am curious what yr opinion is about A.Villenkin theory the universe from nothing is?
We know the fundamental laws of physics now - at least in as far as we can describe what there is in the universe. What we do not know is if we have found the best way of expressing them or describing them is my belief. They do not extend to gravitational singularities for example and they should.
About a simulation not having "hidden structure, not used for anything" well that's exactly what one finds looking at a modern machine learning data set and the amount of unused/incorrect scenarios it attempts and uses to generate it's trained models... Red pill pls.
I suspect that I am not alone in sensing professor Wilczek's frustration and regret at the current state of fundamental physics. Or it could be that he was just sheepish about his future self accepting the Templeton Prize.
How do we know that time is relative, it may be a perception of our eyes, maybe the difference is because our eyes perceive it differently due to relative distances
Being a software professional, I would address the criticism that the universe contains too much useless complexity, which disqualifies it from being a simulation by saying that the assumption that programs are necessarily concise, rationally designed, and efficiently programmed (i.e., aesthetically beautiful with form following function). Complex systems with long histories exhibit exactly that kind of useless complexity due to too many chefs and dead or abandoned code that no one wants to touch, because the original programmers have long moved on and no one understands it any longer. No one wants to break something that ain't broke, and there is genuine fear to touch it. That accurately describes 90+% of legacy software in operational use today in virtually every critical area of the economy. Therefore, I reject the criticism of the universe as a simulation.

Hooray for the Physics episode. The other ones are good too, but these are the best.

Thank you brotha
Many of Frank's books are available as audiobooks, and are always an inspiration and delight. He is truly eloquent.
Ah, a fine Physics episode! Thank you!
I LOVE YOUR PODCAST DR. CARROLL!
A genius guest, an great podcast 👏
Thank you so much Prof.Carroll
Thank you for this episode! The Lightness of Being was one of my favorite books! Cheers!
Frank is one of my favorite theoretical physicists. I really like his reticence to make unjustified claims, or to extrapolate too far
Thanks for having Wilczek on. He explains so well and brings understanding forth in a clear way.

Getting this episode and Lex’s interview with Max Tegmark at the same time is such a gift.
Yes! Let's be friends? Lol

The video is a discussion of observations and hopes that didn't go anywhere, explored in an appreciative and thoughtful way.
Wonderful discussion. I'm going to listen to it again, there are so many excellent ideas here and refreshing perspective on science.
Frank Wilczek! Wow!
The cross-over episode we all waited for

Strictly concentrated in physics. Material Man!
How exactly does the standard model equations look because everytime I google it, i see different ways of writing it
Imagine a whole page of symbols crammed together. So very much like a crib sheet.
We know the fundamental laws of physics now - at least in as far as we can describe what there is in the universe. What we do not know is if we have found the best way of expressing them or describing them is my belief. They do not extend to gravitational singularities for example and they should.
Why is Mr. Carrolls potcast fillt up with advertising?
Hi Sean, can you do a video on Roger Penrose's Conformal Cyclic Cosmology next please.
He did have Penrose!
@@peteunderdown6889 can you post the link not finding it
@@CMVMic you probably found it by now, but it is episode 28.
@@timc7035 Actually no I didn't but thank you! I found it nw
You are awesome !
Did he invent new particles (axions) or discover them? I’m neophyte and asking seriously or is it semantics.
@ around 50:05 ?/ Is This a "Quasi-World" //? hehehhe : )

Get prof. Krzysztof Meissner. A collegue of sir Roger Penrose. That would be somewhat different experience. Great Job by the way.
Hey Sean, I hope you will keep Mindscape on TH-cam and not follow the trend towards Podcasts moving to Spotify!
Frankie!

I didnt know you are an Everettian professor Carrol. You hide the horns well.
Hey Sean Carol What's with you guys double dipping and slipping in spoken adverts?
Axion connect with anyon by time crystal of super symmetry in aeon.

You can see he is brilliant by the need of a hair cut.
There are no particles, only fields controlled by consciousness. Maybe it's time we finally accept this ?
Cul-de-sac ? Not very helpful but....
Or, AI is the only intelligence. We are just pretentious imposters.
