Erik Verlinde

I don't have the full theoretical background to understand all the theoretical details of this.

And I talked to Erik Verlinde.

He's a pretty famous and absolutely brilliant theoretical physicist at the University of Amsterdam.

And he came up with this theory of emergent gravity, that gravity is not something that is existing on its own but it's it's emerging from a lower level of existence and they come he compares it a little bit to to temperature we all know that temperature exists but when you look at the details at the tiny details an atom doesn't have a particular temperature and temperature is something that is emerging from the motion and the collisions and the vibrations of atoms and molecules and maybe gravity is something like that that space time empty space-time and gravity is emerging from a lower, deeper level of reality.

And in a sense, some of the alternative theories that you are describing may go toward that goal.

The fuzzy dark matter that we mentioned is something that is not a real part.

It's a particle so... low in mass that is that is well it's it's hard to explain but it's it's it's corresponding wavelength it's extremely low so it starts to act more like a field instead of like a particle and then when you have something like a field it is something like the month field which is also a gravitational field And Erik Verlinde's theory has a lot of comparisons in its results with the Mons theory.

So a number of theorists are thinking about new lines that may end up more or less in the same way as this modified Newtonian dynamics.

You can't have both, but we do indeed observe both.

Could it be that gravity just does not exist and its illusion is what drives us crazy? physicist Eric Verlinde introduced a controversial model where gravity is not a fundamental force, but instead emerges from information and entropy.

To imagine gravity emerging from informational entropy, think of temperature arising from the friction of particles.

The temperature, of course, being a metaphor of something that is not a fundamental constant, but a secondary result.

There are two types of nuclear force and the electromagnetic force and then gravity.

And Eric Verlinde says, "You know, gravity's the only one that doesn't have a quantum mechanical base to it.

Let's ditch it.

We don't need gravity." Even Einstein said it's not a force.
