AI and Theoretical Physics

Steve Hsu assures us that all but the last 20 minutes should be comprehensible to non-physicists.  I didn't get that far. Five years ago, and for the fifty years before that I would have been interested, but somehow I am less so.  Perhaps my thinking is less flexible, or I care less about the answers.

Hsu considers AI to be a "brilliant but unreliable genius colleague."

It looks very interesting. I gather the slides aren't handy. I hadn't heard of his earlier paper. I should look at it and see if I can understand it; that's an unexpected result.
