Are Space and Time Created by Quantum Error Correction?

MIT physicist Daniel Harlow joins Brian Greene to explore black holes, holography, and the surprising connection between spacetime and algorithms that perform quantum error correction.

This program is part of the Big Ideas series, supported by the John Templeton Foundation.
