  • Renowned physicist and pioneer of string theory, Leonard Susskind talks with Brian Greene about some of the biggest breakthroughs in physics. Listen to their wide-ranging conversation about the holographic principle, quantum entanglement, wormholes, the Firewall Paradox, and how string theory has allowed for quantum mechanics and gravity to coexist.
    This program is part of the Big Ideas series, supported by the John Templeton Foundation.
    Live Sessions are conversations hosted by Brian Greene with world-renowned scientists, including World Science U faculty exploring matter, mind, and the cosmos.

    Leonard Susskind always succeeds in conveying the sense of struggle that he experienced while grappling with difficult matters. It takes Brian Greene to ask the right questions and then stay quiet while the explanation unfolds.

    This video will remain as a part of history because it tells how Susskind and Maldacena came up with discovery of ER = EPR (1:42:55) which just physically found in a quantum simulation run in Google quantum computer.

    A wonderful dialogue between two wonderful physicists in a wonderful series.
    There are too many comments to read through and see if anyone else already mentioned this: If you are watching with subtitles, be aware that, besides the usual misspellings of proper names, "brains" are really "branes" -- sort of like membranes, but membranes are two-dimensional and branes can have various dimensions.

    1:15:30 Before Brian even finishes his statement about Einstein often being considered an old fogey, with dinosaur-like resistance to the counterintuitive conclusions of quantum physics (of which he himself was a co-founder), *_Leonard is shaking his head_* ...as if to say, "NO, NO, NO...Einstein was onto something there..." It is gratifying to see real physicists who demonstrably have a deep understanding of the universe recognize that Einstein knew that quantum mechanics has some unresolved inconsistencies.
    I have taken Prof. Susskind's graduate seminar on black holes. It was brilliant, and crystal clear. No one can accuse me of being a Leonard Susskind admirer and get away unrewarded, but when I saw that simple action of shaking his head, my respect for him (already stratospheric) hit escape velocity and went orbital. He know whose shoulders he's standing on, and it speaks volumes about his perspective.
    The internet in general and UA-cam in particular has no shortage of smart-ayusses who deprecate and disrespect Einstein. But real physicists like Brian Greene and Leonard Susskind know what he did, and rightly stand in awe of his achievements.

    Best moment: when Lenny asks Brian if he's interested in his private speculations. Brian leans forward and smirks.

      Brian and Carl are different. Carl was a groundbreaker. In the pre-video media age, nothing like Cosmos had ever been done before. Brian is a super smart guy and his format, often panel discussions, is quite unique. In the end though, Brian's delivery tends to distract me from the content.
