What is the problem with the Theory of General Relativity?



Is Einstein's Theory of General Relativity right or wrong? We have proven that Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity is right. But why somebody is suspicious in the case of the Theory of General Relativity? The Theory of General Relativity is made for fixing errors in the Theory of Special Relativity that doesn't mention the behavior of the objects in the curving spacetime. Those errors were noticed when observations of the trajectory of the planet Mercury have not to match with theoretical calculations. 

Albert Einstein introduced his Theory of Special Relativity in 1905. And the Theory of General Relativity was introduced in 1916 during WWI. The First World War was the worst moment to publish scientific papers. And after the war, the winners were jealous of those kinds of things. So we must remember that Einstein made his work in Germany. And the war covered that work that is called the most beautiful formula in the world E=Mc^2:


E=Mc^2 is

E=Energy

M= Mass

c= Speed of light


This was the short history of those very interesting theories that are the cornerstone of the modern way to think about the cosmos. 

But the thing that makes the Theory of General Relativity so interesting is that is not working with quantum mechanics or quantum physics. The quantum theory is compatible with the Theory of Special Relativity but not with the Theory of General Relativity. And that causes thoughts is there the missing piece between the quantum theory and the Theory of General Relativity. 

The problem with both theories of relativity and quantum theory is that they are meant for different scales. The theory of Special Relativity is handling the cases of the straight universe. And Theory of General Relativity handles the things that happen in the curving spacetime. So what makes those theories problematic? Maybe we are thinking the wrong way. Maybe there is an error that Einstein didn't notice. The thing is that we always try to make the models. 

Or is that error on the side of quantum theory. Does that theory notice the oscillation and vibration of the quantum particles? And if we are thinking that the quantum particles are not ever stable we might think that the quantum theory just doesn't notice that the place of the particles is changing all the time. And do those theories notice the wave-particle duality? 

That means the particles in the universe are not smooth. They are wrinkled or full of the protuberance. But when we are thinking about curving spacetime we must ask is there a limit for curving that is necessary when the Theory of General Relativity can connect with quantum theory. Or is there something missing between quantum theory and the Theory of General relativity? 

And in that case, we are using the most extreme cases in the universe. The fact is that spacetime is curving around all gravitational objects. But is it curving enough that the Theory of General Relativity can work with those reactions? If we are thinking that the gravitation causes the pothole in the spacetime, how deep that pothole should be that the Theory of General Relativity is turning dominant? 

Black holes are the most extreme objects in the universe. Even the light cannot escape from those gravitation centers. So is it possible that the gravitation of any other object in the universe is so weak, that the pothole around the object is not deep enough that the Theory of General Relativity is not fitting in the case?

The LK-99 could be a fundamental advance even if it cannot reach superconductivity in 400K.

The next step in superconducting research is that LK-99 was not superconducting at room temperature. Or was it? The thing is that there is needed more research about that material. And even if it couldn't reach superconductivity in 400K that doesn't mean that material is not fundamental. And if LK-99 can maintain its superconductivity in 400K that means a fundamental breakthrough in superconducting technology.  The LK-99 can be hype or it can be the real thing. The thing is, anyway, that high-voltage cables and our electric networks are not turning superconducting before next summer. But if we can change the electric network to superconducting by using some reasonable material. That thing can be the next step in the environment. Superconductors decrease the need to produce electricity. But today cooling systems that need lots of energy are the thing that turn superconductors that need low temperatures non-practical for everyday use.  When the project begins there is lots of ent

Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.

 Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.  Black holes and gravitational waves: is black hole's singularity at so high energy level that energy travels in one direction in the form of a gravitational wave.  We normally say that black holes do not send radiation. And we are wrong. Black holes send gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are wave movement or radiation. And that means the black holes are bright gravitational objects.  If we can use water to illustrate the gravitational interaction we can say that gravitational waves push the surface tension out from the gravitational center. Then the other quantum fields push particles or objects into a black hole. The gravitational waves push energy out from the objects. And then the energy or quantum fields behind that object push them into the gravitational center.  The elementary particles are quantum fields or whisk-looking structures. If the gravitational wave is

The CEO of Open AI, Sam Altman said that AI development requires a similar organization as IAEA.

We know that there are many risks in AI development. And there must be something that puts people realize that these kinds of things are not jokes. The problem is how to take control of the AI development. If we think about international contracts regarding AI development. We must realize that there is a possibility that the contract that should limit AI development turns into another version of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. That treaty didn't ever deny the escalation of nuclear weapons. And there is a big possibility that the AI-limitation contracts follow the route of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.  The biggest problem with AI development is the new platforms that can run every complicated and effective code. That means the quantum computer-based neural networks can turn themselves more intelligent than humans. The AI has the ultimate ability to learn new things. And if it runs on the quantum-hybrid system that switches its state between binary and quantum states,
