Solving physics may reveal 'doors behind doors' of new opportunities.

Solving physics may reveal 'doors behind doors' of new opportunities. | I I think there probably will be doors behind the doors, but there are so many doors that are right in front of us that we haven't yet unlocked that would be, I think, completely economically transformative if if we could use AI to solve them.
