The Last Theory

The Last Theory is an easy-to-follow exploration of what might be the last theory of physics. In 2020, Stephen Wolfram launched the Wolfram Physics Project to find the elusive fundamental theory that explains everything. On The Last Theory podcast, I investigate the implications of Wolfram's ideas and dig into the details of how his universe works. Join me for fresh insights into Wolfram Physics every other week.

Causality ain't what you think it is

Do you know what causality is?

If you do, let me know, because I’m not sure.

I’ve never come across a conception of causality that makes sense to me.

After all, our universe seems to follow simple equations like Einstein’s equations, and there’s no mention of causality in these equations.

It makes me think that there’s no such thing as causality.

Unless...

Well, here’s the thing.

I’m no longer sure that our universe does follow these continuous equations.

I’m beginning to think that at the smallest scale, our universe might evolve through discrete computations.

If that turns out to be true, it allows for a limited conception of causalityafter all.

It’s causality, Jim, but not as we know it.

  • Even the Catholic Church now concedes that the Earth orbits the Sun.
  • Einstein’s equations tell you everything you need to know about how the Sun, the Earth and the various other conglomerations of matter in the vicinity warp space and time in such a way that the Earth follows its slightly wobbly elliptical orbit around the Sun.
  • I tend to think that history is just one thing after another.
