What's New in Science with Sabine and Lawrence | AI Dreams and Nightmares, Dark Matter Discovered? and Fake Science News.

September 23, 2026

There has been a lot of doom and gloom combined with excitement, if that is possible, about AI in the science news lately.

Treatin...

Physics for Everyone, Lecture 4. The Beating Heart of Modern Physics: The Dog Who Didn't Bark in the Night.

August 18, 2026

This lecture, recorded before lecture 5, which was released a month ago, actually more naturally follows it, which is why releasing it after lecture 5, while unintended, actually makes sense. In the last lecture I described the most important unification in all of physics, the unification of electricity and magnetism, a unification into electromagnetism by James Clerk Maxwell in the 19th century. Because of its elegance, and its overpowering utility, the theory of electromagnetism has prov...
