Things we don’t understand
Apart from the philosophical and consciousness-related gaps, there are few general-purpose or almost-at-that-level things that we really don’t understand how or why they work.
- Why do planes fly?
- What happens inside fire?
- How does general anesthesia work?
- Why does magnetism occur?
- What is gravity?
- Why do we need to sleep?
- What is the nature of dark matter and dark energy?
- How do large language models work?
Please point me to anything that can better explain any of these; and all of the others that should be on this list that I missed!
