Quantum mechanics and the classical world
53:42 - 55:31 (01:48)
In this episode, the speaker explores how the classical world can emerge from the quantum world at a fundamental level, emphasizing the importance of taking quantum mechanics seriously to derive the classical world from it, rather than starting with a classical theory and quantizing it.
