Principle of least action

Replying to

oh so it's like the fastest path of light in optics

Replying to

except intelligence will only reliably get you the shortest path in the infinite limit

Replying to

yeah, it's a gradient descent algorithm for approximating the shortest path

Replying to

yeah, fastest path of light, principle of least action + principle of maximal time in GR are all same math

Replying to

I'd be interested in the concept of space that arises from this
