Curt Jaimungal sits down with Peter Woit and Joseph Conlon to debate the merits and criticisms of string theory. They examine its potential as a unified framework, discuss experimental prospects, and consider the sociological forces shaping modern theoretical physics.- 00:00 - Introduction- 03:10 - What Wrong with the

Peter Woit, senior lecturer at Columbia and author of *Not Even Wrong*, critiques the failures of grand unified and string theories and argues that they have stalled the search for a unified physical law. He introduces a new four‑dimensional geometric approach based on spinors and Wick rotation as a possible path forwa

Prof. Peter Woit critiques the decline of string theory and outlines his gravi-weak unification approach using Euclidean twistors in Euclidean spacetime. He also examines the role of mathematicians, machine learning, and philosophical issues in the search for quantum gravity.- 00:00:00 - Introduction- 00:00:00 - String
