Science doesn’t always advance step by step—it sometimes leaps, violently, from one worldview to another. From Copernicus moving Earth out of the cosmic center to Einstein rewriting space and time, Thomas Kuhn’s idea of paradigm shifts explains why revolutions—not gradual progress—shape our understanding of reality. In this episode, we’ll explore how scientific revolutions unfold, why old theories don’t simply “add up” to truth, and whether today’s breakthroughs in AI, genetics, and climate science signal a new shift in progress.
