"The mathematics of string theory is probably one of the most beautiful artifacts humanity has created. In order to even produce something in theoretical physics, there's hundreds of years of literature that you need to catch up on, and also every day there's, 100 new papers that come out. And before you can contribute to theoretical physics, you need to know basically all of math, like algebraic topology, differential equations, algebraic geometry, and these are all things that people will spend their careers going in on, and yet to do the physics, you need to at least have, a pretty deep understanding of these things. And so it really teaches you how to have, good judgment with minimal information." @matanSF studied physics for a decade, eventually dropping out of his PhD focused on string theory to found @FactoryAI.
