Probabilistic Causality from Graviton Fluctuations

The episode discusses the paper "Probabilistic Causality from Graviton Fluctuations," which shows that quantum fluctuations in gravity make causality probabilistic instead of deterministic by smearing out sharp lightcones. The hosts conclude this suggests classical general relativity needs a more probabilistic framework when gravity is dynamic, especially near black holes, impacting how we interpret observational data.
