Umesh Vazirani and Markus Müller open the exciting @SimonsInstitute workshop on near-term quantum computers: Fault tolerance, benchmarking, quantum advantage, and quantum algorithms. #SimonsLive
@lyc1178 kicking off the miniworkshop on near term quantum! A new Era begins #simonslive @SimonsInstitute @taylorswift13
One of these works at a large corporation and one is an academic writing theory papers. It's the opposite of which you think. :) #SimonsLive
I’d add that the new proof isn’t yet a @QuantaMagazine story yet but probably will be soon! The idea of proving that event horizons must exist (albeit I’m guessing for a sort of space not resembling ours) is pretty cool #SimonsLive
She defined the event horizon. Then we're back to the AdS/CFT correspondence. If you habng around with theorists, you hear that term a lot. First proposed by Juan Maldacena in 1997, that paper's been cited over 24,000 times... #SimonsLive en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AdS/CFT_c…
@postquantum Now the inevitable @QuantaMagazine article. An interview with @postquantum The most enthralling part of the theory is that it can be tested-on non-geological timescales #SimonsLive quantamagazine.org/the-physicist-…
@postquantum arXiv blog. 'Oppenheim’s idea is that relativity is classical but fundamentally stochastic, by which he means that it has a random character, like Brownian motion. This allows QM and relativity to be combined' #SimonsLive discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/s…
@postquantum “When we started, maybe 99 percent of our colleagues thought we were crackpots and that’s now down to maybe 70 percent,” quips Oppenheim, of University College London. That was in December so maybe the number has inched down since then #SimonsLive sciencenews.org/article/gravit…
@postquantum Oppenheim has recently published a theory that unites general relativity with quantum field theory. #SimonsLive Some recent stories about his work to follow... x.com/postquantum/st…

Pennington sounds super-clear and is the first Englishman presenting at the workshop. But there's lots of questions. Reassuring to see the theorists here struggling. "I'll stick to complexity," one says. I'll try and catch up with him later. #SimonsLive
It’s been refreshing to see handwritten slides again during this workshop BTW. No flashy management consultancy presentations here. Substance over style. #SimonsLive
DAY 4 At last! The gravity piece arrives! Geoff Pennington from UC Berkeley, "What on Earth Does Complexity Theory Have to Do with Gravity?" Packed house. simons.berkeley.edu/talks/geoff-pe… #SimonsLive
Now it's Robbie King from Caltech on 'Quantum Complexity of Clique Homology' simons.berkeley.edu/talks/robbie-k… @benbenbrubaker helpfully sent me a @QuantaMagazine story on some aspects of this talk... quantamagazine.org/after-a-classi… #SimonsLive
Susskind is laying out his 2018 conjecture that the volume of a black hole is equal to the complexity of the quantum state of the black hole arxiv.org/pdf/1810.11563… #SimonsLive
Susskind is setting up. Student compliments him on his shirt. "I like this shirt too," he says. "And I only got one of 'em." Then he rings a handbell and says, "Ya heard of Bell's theorem right?" #SimonsLive
