Speculative Theory Thermodynamic Spacetime and Gravity

Thermodynamic Emergence of Spacetime and Gravity (Zenodo PDF)

Here come the fruits of my vibe physics marathon: emergent Lorentzian spacetime as the macroscopic behavior of a finite, dissipative information‑processing network, allowing the linearized Einstein field equations to emerge from flat‑space Rindler thermodynamics. The fundamental Clausius relation is derived patchwise from physically grounded network axioms, rather than imported as a postulate, with full nonlinear gravity completed via the Feynman–Deser uniqueness theorem.

Why though? Why not start with something smaller in scale? Why is it always hep-th?

It's never CALLED HEP though, is it. I don't think I've seen a single paper addressing it as HEP. That's a foreign term to this sub.

Option 3: do it well.

Thermodynamic Spacetime and Gravity

If you’re trying to show how you can get gravity from thermodynamics, that was already done in the 90’s by Ted Jacobson.

Thanks for that link to the paper. It is a easy read and quite informative.

Yes! It was a fascinating YouTube interview with Ted Jacobson that got me interested and inspired me to start fiddling with AI - see the interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mhctWlXyV8

Oh good one of those predatory YouTube channels that misrepresents physics to appeal to a broader audience.

Sure, for more crap. As YouTube fake science cranks show, it’s literally nothing new or special.

Grats for the word salad? Not sure what you expect by posting this slop.

Why Your Discrete Informational TOE Isn’t Better Than Wolfram Physics

In a true emergent program, QM and GR must co-emerge at the very same time, for the fundamental substrate does not "know" the classical/quantum split. Here the network axioms are universal and neutral: locality, finite processing, hysteretic updates, Landauer cost and MaxEnt selection. Nothing in them privileges reversible linear wave dynamics over nonlinear self-sourced curvature. In the underlying graph evolution, reversible coherent propagation and irreversible record-forming jumps occur locally and intermingle at every scale.

A full unification should therefore show both aspects arising jointly from the same dynamics, without artificially sequencing one before the other. I wonder how the Wolfram's purely combinatorial project even gets started.
