Why Quantum Mechanics Feels Incomplete: Measurement, Time Reversibility, & Quantum Gravity

Why Quantum Mechanics Feels Incomplete: Quantum Measurement, Quantum Gravity, andTime Algorithm, and Quantization of Time,

If a comet wiped out all life on Earth tomorrow, would time continue to tick? Or does time require a human observer to exist?

In this episode, we explore the elusive nature of time—from Isaac Newton’s "fixed river" to Einstein’s relative spacetime. But the real mystery arises when we zoom into the quantum world. Why do some physicists claim quantum mechanics is "incomplete" or "inconsistent" when it comes to time?

We dive deep into the behavior of Qubits, Superposition, and the Collapse of the Wave Function to understand why time seems to be reversible in Schrödinger's equation but becomes strictly irreversible the moment we measure it. Would this form a flaw in quantum mechanics, or is it simply a limit of our current knowledge? Does the universe have a pixelated "resolution"? Is time an algorithm running in the background? Let’s find out.

In this video, we cover:
The Thought Experiment: What happens to time in an empty universe?
Classical vs. Relativistic Time: How gravity and speed change the flow of time.
The Quantum Qubit: Understanding superposition and the "quantum bubble".
The Collapse: Why measurement breaks the symmetry of time.
The Controversy: Why Einstein, Schrödinger, and Penrose complained about this apparent inconsistency.
Quantum Gravity: Is space-time continuous or made of discrete "grains"?.
