Thread 16760215

30 minutes of ChatGPT taught me more about physics than all the popsci books I have ever read. I came to understand that relativity is ultimately about the nature of cause and effect. The geometry of space-time exists to ensure effects can't happen without causes.

man, you don't know shit

Enlighten me

>>16760215 (OP)
If you didn't learn the maths (and in 30 mins, you didn't), then you didn't learn shit. Physics is not wordies, it's maths with some wordies attached.

>>16760257
Not OP but understanding the concepts in words (not saying that he does) helps a shit ton with understanding the underlying maths, except when you go into quantum stuff where it's basically never intuitive.

>>16760257
It's let's take this formula and see if it roughly fits observations and if it does i'll come up with some bullshit about what it all means

Buy an ad, you cheap fuck.

>>16760215 (OP)
wrong. action at a distance, which indeed follows cause and effect is what the geometry of spacetime actually fixed (among other things, like making EM compatible with gravity)

physics without math is not physics

>30 minutes being sucked off by a sycophantic retard made me more confident in my abilities than years of actual education and effort.

That's the most vague bs description ever.

The issue with ChatGPT is you dont know what you dont know. If you can fact check it might be okay but 99% using it lack a level of critical thinking and ability to investigate.

Not really, it just gets so vague it doesn't help.

Saying space-time is a curved fabric would for instance mislead you into imagine spatial curvature when temporal curvature is largely at play.

>>16760849
math is just a language (words), which is why you can use them to explain both reality and fake and gay stuff (theoretical physics is usually fake and gay).

op is correct in that everything is bound by cause and effect, and as long as you know that, you can figure most things out that you can observe.

>>16760257
god i wish i could do that

This. Everyone shows bowling balls and marbles on a trampoline. No one ever shows time's involvement.
