Gerard 't Hooft: Why the Universe Is a Deterministic Machine

Gerard 't Hooft (Nobel laureate) argues quantum mechanics is wrong—the universe is a deterministic machine. He explores superdeterminism, cellular automata, and the implications for black hole information and hidden variables.- 00:00 - Why Quantum Mechanics is Fundamentally Wrong- 05:00 - The Frustrating Blind Spots of Modern Physicists- 11:27 - The "Hidden Variables" That Truly Explain Reality- 17:00 - The "True" Equations of the Universe Will Have No Superposition- 23:00 - Our Universe as a Cellular Automaton- 30:02 - Why Real Numbers Don't Exist in Physics- 39:14 - Can This Radical Theory Even Be Falsified?- 46:29 - How Superdeterminism Defeats Bell's Theorem- 58:19 - 't Hooft's Radical View on Quantum Gravity- 1:08:24 - Solving the Black Hole Information Paradox with "Clones"- 1:14:00 - What YOU Would Experience Falling Into a Black Hole- 1:20:17 - How 't Hooft Almost Beat a Nobel Prize DiscoverySPONSORS:- YouTube Member (Early Access Videos): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdWIQh9DGG6uhJk8eyIFl1w/join- Patreon: https://patreon.com/curtjaimungal- Crypto: https://commerce.coinbase.com/checkout/de803625-87d3-4300-ab6d-85d4258834a9- PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=XUBHNMFXUX5S4RESOURCES:- The Economist discount: https://www.economist.com/toe- Substack: https://curtjaimungal.substack.com- Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4gL14b92xAErofYQA7bU4e- Gerard’s site: https://webspace.science.uu.nl/~hooft101/- Gerard’s papers: https://inspirehep.net/authors/1019113- Cellular Automaton Interpretation Of Quantum Mechanics [Book]: https://www.amazon.com/Cellular-Automaton-Interpretation-Mechanics-Fundamental/dp/3319823140- David Wallace [TOE]: https://youtu.be/4MjNuJK5RzM- Emily Adlam & Jacob Barandes [TOE]: https://youtu.be/rw1ewLJUgOg- Roger Penrose [TOE]: https://youtu.be/sGm505TFMbU- Conway’s Game Of Life: https://playgameoflife.com/- Julian Barbour [TOE]: https://youtu.be/bprxrGaf0Os- Emily Adlam [TOE]: https://youtu.be/6I2OhmVWLMs- Sabine’s video on Gerard: https://youtu.be/2kxoq5UzAEQ- Sabine Hossenfelder [TOE]: https://youtu.be/E3y-Z0pgupg- Tim Palmer [TOE]: https://youtu.be/vlklA6jsS8A- Carlo Rovelli [TOE]: https://youtu.be/hF4SAketEHY- Stephen Wolfram [TOE]: https://youtu.be/0YRlQQw0d-4- Bernardo Kastrup & Sabine Hossenfelder [TOE]: https://youtu.be/kJmBmopxc1k- Tim Maudlin [TOE]: https://youtu.be/fU1bs5o3nss- Jacob Barandes [TOE]: https://youtu.be/wrUvtqr4wOs- Ted Jacobson [TOE]: https://youtu.be/3mhctWlXyV8- Claudia De Rham [TOE]: https://youtu.be/Ve_Mpd6dGv8- Neil Turok [TOE]: https://youtu.be/ZUp9x44N3uE- Latham Boyle [TOE]: https://youtu.be/nyLeeEFKk04- David Kaiser [TOE]: https://youtu.be/_yebLXsIdwo- String Theory Iceberg [TOE]: https://youtu.be/X4PdPnQuwjY- Birth of Asymptotic Freedom [Paper]: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0550321385902068- How To Become A Good Theoretical Physicist [Article]: https://www.goodtheorist.science/index.html- Twitter: https://twitter.com/TOEwithCurt- Discord Invite: https://discord.com/invite/kBcnfNVwqs Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal features long-form, technically detailed interviews with leading researchers in physics, mathematics, consciousness, and philosophy, exploring topics at the level of active research.
