For this will to deceive that is in things luminous may manifest itself likewise in retrospect and so by sleight of some fixed part of a journey already accomplished may also post men to fraudulent destinies.

Creating gravitational superposition: once believed impossible, now so simple that it’s now an active learning module!

Well, this has been interesting.

These experiments test if spacetime can be put in quantum superposition. CHSH experiments tested if reality is nonlocal. Having strong priors on these questions is reasonable. Saying that they do not do something new is, however, simply a religious Bayesian prior of 100%.

The words “quantum gravity”, in any reasonable use of English, should refer to the quantum mechanics of the gravitational field. These experiments probe that in a very definite sense.

What if gravity isn’t a pull from mass, but a push from entropy? Hear George Musser tell Samir S. Patel about his recent reporting on this idea on a new episode of The Quanta Podcast. Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the… Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/7HZxMp…

As I age, I increasingly appreciate what leadership means at this level. I can't speak highly enough of how well managed LBL has been since I got here. Huge props to Mike, and best wishes for the future.

The experiments that the AI software designed “were nothing that a human being would make, because it had no sense of symmetry, beauty, anything. It was just a mess,” said physicist Rana Adhikari. But the design was clearly effective. quantamagazine.org/ai-comes-up-wi…
