About this listen
What is it like to fall in love with a problem?
In this episode I sit down with Professor David Deutsch, pioneer of quantum computing and one of the most influential thinkers in modern theoretical physics.
David takes us through his journey from studying quantum fields in Dennis Sciama's prefab hut at Oxford to developing the theoretical foundations of quantum computing. We discuss Constructor Theory, a new framework he is developing with Chiara Marletto, that approaches physics through what can and cannot be caused to happen rather than predicting what will happen from initial conditions.
If you are curious about what drives a lifetime of creativity in science, this conversation will stay with you.
