New episode w Adam Brown, a lead of Blueshift at DeepMind & theoretical physicist at Stanford. Stupefying, terrifying, & absolutely fascinating. On destroying the light cone with vacuum decay, mining black holes, holographic principle, & path to LLMs which make Einsteinian conceptual breakthroughs. Enjoy!
