The speakers discuss the idea of learning through experience and making discoveries by trying and failing, using the example of children getting shocked by sticking a fork in an outlet. They also highlight the importance of scientific curiosity and recommend a book that explores scientists' efforts and challenges.
What would a wormhole actually look like? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice break down a grab bag of questions about nothingness, the nature of miracles, the role of AI in scientific discovery and more!
