#2318 - Harold "Sonny" White

Somebody will look it up on the Internet and correct me if I'm wrong. Comes up with the equation in 1911. They split the first atom in 1928, 1932 time frame. I can't remember the exact time frame. 1942, we have the first nuclear reactor exploded. Underneath the squash court at University of Chicago, they did things very differently in the 1940s, Joe. Under a squash court? Yeah, right.

Are they X-Men now? Right, exactly. That's the origin story. That's the Spider-Man origin story, right? Yeah. That's where Phoenix came from. Yeah, your friends tell you. I think I can hear the color blue now, right? Mm-hmm. So anyway, I had the first nuclear reactor underneath the squash court in 1942 and then the Trinity test. That's the atomic bomb test in 1945.

And so as we continue to move forward, right, we've got, you know, if you think about everything we know in physics today, general relativity and quantum mechanics are kind of the two bookends of everything that we know. We're going to continue to expand our knowledge and we will come up with new E equals MC squared kind of equations But now we're equipped with computers.

We're equipped with machine learning, AI. And so it's going to be exponential growth, right? So it'll be interesting to see how quickly we go from, hey, I have this new insight. found this funny thing in a lab to, wow, it changes everything, how we do everything as a culture and community, right?
