Maldacena: Is Spacetime Made of Qubits?

Juan Maldacena is one of the most cited physicists alive, and the question of whether spacetime emerges from quantum information (qubits) sits at the bleeding edge of theoretical physics — directly relevant to consciousness and reality discussions. Curt Jaimungal's channel (Theories of Everything) is well-regarded for rigorous, long-form conversations with elite scientists, lending strong credibility. The topic bridges quantum mechanics, the nature of reality, and consciousness expansion in a way that is intellectually substantive and genuinely novel for general audiences.
