    Both Ends of the Quantum Gravity Spectrum

    Between her work on the BMV experiment to probe gravity's quantum side in the laboratory and her current investigation into quantum theory’s role in cosmology, Conjecture Institute Fellow Antonia Weber's young career as a physicist has already taken her across nearly the entire energy spectrum of quantum gravity.

    The Three Pillars of an Artificial Mind

    The road to artificial intelligence (AGI) is not paved in increasingly efficient algorithms, more computing power, or radical improvements to the best large language models. Armed with our best theory of how knowledge is created, Conjecture Institute Fellow Carlos De la Guardia has honed in on universality, problem-solving, and explanatory knowledge as three key pillars to building an AGI.   Read here: https://conjectureinstitute.org/articles/fellow-spotlight/carlos-de-la-guardia

    All Is (Q-)Number

    In a world full of headlines touting ‘the latest theory of everything’, the most valuable unturned stone might be the theories we have had for a century. We just need the courage to do as Sam Kuypers does and take them seriously.   Read the Spotlight Article about Conjecture Institute Fellow Sam Kuypers: https://conjectureinstitute.org/articles/fellow-spotlight/sam-kuypers

    Civilization, Module One: Hallmarks and Enemies

    Denying the truth of Western superiority means never investigating why the West makes so much more progress than the rest of humanity. It means failing to discover the institutions, principles, and values that underlie the progress that the West has made. It means taking for granted the necessary ingredients for how a society can transform from a worse one to a better one. It means putting those very ingredients at risk in the West, and it means placing them farther out of reach for the non-West than they need to be.   Read: https://conjectureinstitute.org/courses/civilization/Civilization%20Module%201%20Revised.pdf   Visit Conjecture Institute: https://conjectureinstitute.org   Follow Conjecture Institute on X: https://x.com/ConjectureInst

    The Revolution That Should Have Been—And Still Could Be

    Conjecture Institute Fellow Paul Raymond-Robichaud proved that the universe can be local and real after all—vindicating Einstein’s dream and unsettling a century of quantum orthodoxy. Our Spotlight Article series highlights our Fellows’ history, contributions, interests, and ideas. More to come. Read or listen to the web version of our article about Paul and his work here.

    Conjecture Institute Fellow Jaber Hassoun

    Jaber is a Fellow of Conjecture Institute. A computer science graduate and educational Youtuber focused on science and philosophy communication, Jaber's videos and interviews are dedicated to promoting Enlightenment values, progress, optimism in Deutsch's sense, the open/dynamic society and a Critical Rationalist attitude. His is one of the only Arabic-speaking channels that offers deep dives into the Beginning of Infinity by David Deutsch and Popperian epistemology in general.

    Economics, Module 0: The Constraints of Personhood

    In explaining the regularities of an economy, of the conditions under which wealth can and cannot grow, we may begin with the fact that man acts purposefully—that is, he employs some scarce means to achieve some desired ends. This is typically called the action axiom, but I prefer to call it the action conjecture. As with many apparently simple principles in science and philosophy, the action conjecture and its logical consequences will take us very far in our journey to explain how wealth is created, how resources are allocated, and how individuals coordinate their idiosyncratic means and ends between each other and with their future selves.   Written version: https://conjectureinstitute.org/courses/economics/Economics%20Module%200.pdf   Discover more course modules: https://conjectureinstitute.org/university/courses
