Voices on black holes

Standout quotes from every episode that touches this concept.

"The whole point of relativity is to say there’s no such thing as right now when you’re far away."
"As smart as Einstein was, he never figured out black holes, and he could have. It’s embarrassing."
"The maximum information as reflected in the black hole entropy scales as the area of the black hole’s event horizon, not the volume inside."
"Many-worlds comes about by taking the Schrodinger equation seriously."
"The cosmological constant is strictly constant, 100% constant."
"It’s not even trying to, it’s not a large language model, no aspirations to intentionality, but we attribute that all the time."
"The black hole is not the mass crushed to a point. The black hole is the event horizon."
"Unitarity is going to be preserved."
