Quick takeaways

  • Jonathan Oppenheim proposes a post quantum theory of classical gravity, challenging mainstream frameworks like loop quantum gravity and string theory.
  • Assuming a classical gravitational field must exhibit stochastic behavior, suggesting randomness is inherent in classical gravity and challenging determinism in physics.
