Prof March-Russell explains our latest understanding of black holes, some of the most mysterious objects in the Universe.

The Principle of Least Action is both profound and practical. Since its first formulation by Maupertuis and Euler nearly three centuries ago, the Principle has been, and continues to be, a formidable battlehorse for penetrating unchartered territory in theoretical physics. The Principle, its connection with, and implications for, our ideas of symmetry, space, time, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and gravitation, are glanced at.

Building an end-to-end pipeline for your machine learning projects is a complex task, made more difficult by the variety of ways that you can structure it. Kedro is a framework that provides an opinionated workflow that lets you focus on the parts that matter, so that you don't waste time on gluing the steps together. In this episode Tom Goldenberg explains how it works, how it is being used at Quantum Black for customer projects, and how it can help you structure your own. Definitely worth a listen to gain more understanding of the benefits that a standardized process can provide.

This episode’s guest is Chris Wigley, who is a former British Diplomat and now Partner at McKinsey and Solution Partner at Quantum Black, which advises businesses all over the world on how to best implement AI and machine learning. He also regularly talks about the ethics of AI and it is in this capacity that I most interested in. The ethics of AI as a conversation hasn’t matured as fast as the technology it often cautions against. And as the purposeful business trend continues to march, how can entrepreneurs square using best-in-class tech within positive ethical contexts if they don’t know the full impact of those technologies? It’s Chris’ job to talk to business leaders about that very topic, so what are the ethical considerations of AI?

On this week's Arm Cast: Dead Sexy Podcast, host Armand Rosamilia chats with Alexander Thomas He's an author, a game designer, dog lover, karaoke enthusiast, and all around nerd. You may know him from his work on roleplaying games including Mutants & Masterminds for Green Ronin and New Millennium Games, as well as Quantum Black. His debut novel The Magician’s Sin is available through Kyanite Publishing

Episode 22 – D&D&P&P or Pride & Prejudice & Dragons I really couldn’t decide on that one. But we went with the former. The BIG NEWS is friends-of-the-show Ron & Scott have a Kickstarter going for the Quantum Black game setting for Ubiquity (Hollow Earth Expeditions). Click HERE to find it on Kickstarter!

Considering two dimensional gravity coupled to a CFT, we show that a semiclassical black hole can be described in terms of two Liouville theories matched at the horizon. The black hole exterior corresponds to a space-like while the interior to a time-like Liouville theory. This matching automatically implies that a semiclassical black hole has an infinite entropy. The path integral description of the time-like Liouville theory (the Black Hole interior) is studied and it is found that the correlation functions of the coupled CFT-gravity system are dominated by two (complex) saddle points, even in the semiclassical limit. We argue that this system can be interpreted as two interacting Bose-Einstein condensates constructed out of two degenerate quantum states. In AdS/CFT context, the same system is mapped into two interacting strings intersecting inside a three-dimensional BTZ black hole. (C) 2014 The Author
