In fact, Einstein said that "imagination is more important than knowledge." I presented a number of examples from math and quantum physics confirming this thesis. ![]() One of the main themes (which I think is quite relevant to the current debate on the future of AI) was limitations of knowledge and importance of recognizing other dimensions of life, such as intuition and imagination - which in my opinion cannot be captured by knowledge or computation. We discussed a wide range of topics related to math, physics, and AI. ![]() I had a great time talking with Lex Fridman on his podcast. ![]()
