The Renormalization Revolution and the Future of Theoretical Physics
The Renormalization Revolution taught physicists the importance of understanding how coupling constants run and what kind of UV fixed points exist. The speaker expresses concerns about the future of theoretical physics after the current generation retires, but also discusses the revolutionary impact of the podcast medium on discourse.
