In short: Why is a 'Theory of Everything' so elusive? Particle physicist Don Lincoln joins Lex Fridman to explain the profound challenges in reconciling our current understanding of physics.

Don Lincoln, a particle physicist at Fermilab with decades of experience in high energy physics, explores the conceptual and mathematical hurdles preventing a unified theory. The discussion centers on why modern physics remains divided between different frameworks that describe the universe at vastly different scales.
