Meet the meQuanics - E54 - Dr. Sabine Hossenfelder (Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies)

I'm delighted to be joined today by Dr. Sabine Hossenfelder. A traveller from the field of cosmology and quantum gravity research, Sabine authored a widely read article for the Guardian and a subsequent popular Youtube video regarding quantum computing and the goal of reaching quantum supremacy. We speak about Sabines interests and criticisms of the both the quantum computing community and the high energy community, her popular book, Lost in Math: How Beauty Leads Physics Astray and what she thought of the recent announcement from Google claiming to have achieved quantum supremacy with their superconducting platform.
