The Holographic Principle: Why Deep Learning Works – Intuition Machine

The Holographic Principle is a theory (see: Thin Sheet of Reality) that explains how quantum mechanics and gravity interact to construct the reality that we are in. The motivations for this theory comes from the paradox that Hawking created when he theorized that black holes would emanate energy. The fundamental concept that had been violated by Hawking's theory was that information was destroyed. As a consequence of this paradox, through several decades of research and experimentation, physicists have brought forth a unified theory of the universe that is based on information theoretic principles. The entire universe is a projection of a hologram.
