Hard to think of a better place than pretty Les Diablerets to discuss quantum metrology with other metrology enthusiasts!

70 years ago, Bryce deWitt forcefully made the case for pursuing a quantum theory of gravity in an essay which won the 1953 GRF essay competition. This year, I wrote an essay exploring the possibility that this may be the wrong direction. It lost. scirate.com/arxiv/2310.1... 1/
