World Science Festival

Science is a journey for truth that doesn’t always lead where you expect Andrew Strominger, renowned for his work on black holes, string theory, and quantum gravity, joins Brian Greene to describe his latest results and how some of them may be testable by future observations. youtu.be/eMSZNQEpaW8 #science #cosmology

Catch up before tomorrow’s release! Scientist and author Julian Barbour joins Brian Greene to explain his heterodox views on the nature of time, entropy, and cosmic origins. YouTu.be/BcvUoah66m8 #timeandspace #briangreene #worldsciencefestival

Neil Turok joins Brian Greene to describe his new ideas for curing the big bang singularity and providing a natural dark matter candidate, all while avoiding the conventional paradigm of inflationary cosmology. https://lnkd.in/gNUngJ5m

New From WSF Bestselling author Benjamin Labatut joins Brian Greene for an exploration of the extremes of the human mind, centering on one of its most extraordinary incarnations—polymath John von Neumann--delving into existential dilemmas, moral quandaries, and the profound impacts of scientific discovery.

“When you think about a whole society of AIs how will it behave? What will happen?” Brian Greene and pioneering computer scientist and physicist Stephen Wolfram explore this question and more on the World Science Festival Youtube channel. https://lnkd.in/gzpzkzcW #artificialintelligence #computerscience #STEM

STRAIGHT TALK ON QUANTUM COMPUTING Scott Aaronson, renowned computer scientist known for his no nonsense take on, well, everything, joins Brian Greene to demystify the state of quantum computation, AI, and much more. #briangreene #worldsciencefestival #quantumphysics #quantumcomputing #quantummechanics #openai #ai

Renowned computer scientist & Coursera co-founder Daphne Koller Brian Greene to discuss her new venture in using machine learning for drug discovery and development. Watch the full discussion: https://lnkd.in/gjngCD_C #artificalintelligence #worldsciencefestival #MachineLearning

How confident are we that most matter in the universe has so far escaped detection? And if there is dark matter, might there be dark stars and even a dark big bang? Leading physicist Katherine Freese joins Brian Greene to explore these dark matters. Watch the full discussion: https://lnkd.in/gQ27AcXz #darkmatter #cosmology

Are quantum computers the game-changer they’re described to be, or is the promise of exponential speedup overblown? https://lnkd.in/gmJq3hXD Join pioneer Seth Lloyd and Brian Greene as they discuss how the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics are leveraged by quantum computers, and the algorithmic challenges in achieving the promised exponential power. #QuantumComputing #quantummechanics #quantumphysics

Decoding Thoughts: The New Frontier of AI What if the last bastion of privacy - our thoughts - was no longer impenetrable? In a remarkable conversation at the World Science Festival hosted by the ever-inspiring Brian Greene, we explore how AI is beginning to decode the mind. Researchers Michael Blumenstein and Jerry Tang are pioneering non-invasive “mind-reading” technologies that can translate neural activity into language. Using fMRI and EEG scans, they’re unlocking the potential to give voice to those who cannot speak and revolutionize how we understand the human brain. But as we push the boundaries of what’s possible, we must also consider the profound ethical questions: What happens when our thoughts are no longer our own? How do we protect the privacy of the mind in a world where technology continues to advance at lightning speed? This is a conversation you won’t want to miss. The future is here, and it’s both thrilling and unsettling.
