Many argue that there is a big difference between theoretical physics in the 20th and 21st century. They claim that there have been no new theoretical developments in physics since the mid-70s. I asked the legendary physicist Paul Steinhardt what he thought of these claims and what he would like to see ambitious theoretical physicists doing today. Enjoy!

Paul J. Steinhardt is the Albert Einstein Professor of Science at Princeton University. His pioneering work has significantly impacted our understanding of the universe’s early moments and its fundamental constituents. Throughout his career, Steinhardt made significant contributions to theoretical cosmology, condensed matter physics, and the study of quasicrystals. He is arguably best known for developing the inflationary model of the early expansion of the Universe, a groundbreaking theory that explains the uniformity of the Universe on large scales. He also challenged conventional cosmological paradigms with his work on the cyclic model of the Universe, proposing a cyclic theory of cosmic evolution in which universes are endlessly born, expand, contract, and rebound.
