There are no great debates among General Relativists about how to understand it. The more one works with it, the clearer it becomes. In contrast, no consensus at all exists among physicists about how to understand quantum theory. There just is no precise, exact physical theory called quantum theory, Prof Tim Maudlin writes in his book Philosophy of Physics: Quantum Theory. Therefore, he claims there should not be interpretations of quantum mechanics, as we dont even have a physical ontology to interpret in the first place.

Thank you.$ $Dialectical Science and Why AI Research Needs Continental Philosophy (w/ Tim Elmo Feiten) Dr Tim Elmo Feiten is a philosopher of science with a focus on the sciences of life, mind, and artificial intelligence. His work brings the history and philosophy of science into dialogue with other fields, especially continental and Classical German philosophy. He has used the philosophy of embodied cognitive science to develop new readings of Jakob von Uexküll and Max Stirner and to ask questions about the relationships between art, science, technology, and society. Dr Feiten is currently an Assistant Teaching Professor at Penn State University and did his PhD at the University of Cincinnati. In this episode, we discuss how subjective experience remains a deep philosophical and scientific problem, how continental philosophy can be used in AI and cognitive science research and how science is essentially dialectical.
