Description

Chaos theory shows that both the future and the past are unknowable. Exponential growth always seems to be stymied by an unpredictable limitation that flattens the curve. Creativity happens when something is new, surprising, and has value. But how do we assign value when we are awash in a world of endless data? Mathematics is one universal storytelling language that can help decipher what the universe is telling us. In one of their most intriguing episodes yet, Sonja and Jamie talk edges, AI, creativity, and the melancholy of solving theorems with Marcus du Sautoy, a celebrated pattern-seeking mathematician deeply invested in journeying into the unknown.
