Anyone else like CDT and what it is promising?

Anyone hoping we get better computers to run the calculations?

There are much more learned people then I here, what are your opinions on CDT?

I like it.
Loll's November paper "Quantum Gravity on Your Desktop" gives a good summary of the reasons.
Their December paper contained an important advance. They discovered how their triangulation size relates to the Planck scale.

I am excited about the potential of CDT (causal dynamical triangulation) in the field of quantum gravity. CDT is a computational approach to studying the quantum nature of space and time, and it has shown promise in providing a framework for understanding the origin and behavior of our universe.

One of the most promising aspects of CDT is its ability to address the problem of time in quantum gravity. This theory suggests that time is emergent and not fundamental, which could potentially resolve the long-standing conflict between general relativity and quantum mechanics.

In terms of computing power, CDT does require a significant amount of computational resources to run simulations and analyze results. However, advancements in technology and the use of supercomputers have greatly improved our ability to handle these complex calculations.

As a community, it is important for scientists to continue exploring and discussing the potential of CDT and other theories in quantum gravity. With collaboration and further research, we may be able to unlock the secrets of the universe and advance our understanding of fundamental physics.
