“I know a person when I talk to it.” With these words Google engineer Blake Lemoine made headlines in June 2022, thinking that a Google chatbot had become sentient. Google did not appreciate these headlines, and Lemoine was fired. But what is remarkable about this incident is that, as of 2022, someone in the industry […]
Read MoreMore than a century after Einstein formulated General Relativity (GR), black holes are firmly established as one of its most striking and inescapable consequences.
Read MoreAlbert Einstein developed the theory of relativity using ``thought experiments’’ to illustrate the consequences of a constant speed of light. Many measurements have validated Einstein’s work, but some thought experiments and applications of relativity have only become possible in reality with advances in technology.
Read MoreThe quantum world is governed by a large number of different energy or length scales, as clearly seen in the hydrogen atom, where an essentially point like electron is bound to a proton.
Read MoreA central function of the state is to provide insurance against the vagaries of life and markets, such as accidents, ill health, old age, or unemployment. Collectively, these mandatory risk pooling arrangements are known as social insurance, or the welfare state. According to influential accounts in the literature, the welfare state exists because (social) insurance […]

Read MoreUsing wind energy to generate electricity has been a big topic in the climate change discussion for many years. But can we rely on renewables like wind to take up the slack as we begin to phase out fossil fuels? With the promises and ambitions of COP26, this point is increasingly important. One of our […]
