Artificial Intelligence Unravels the Origin of the Universe as a Phase Transition from the Quantum Vacuum
Ariel Fernández · 2025
The nuanced problem of the origin of the universe may be regarded as a core problem in quantum gravity, an immature field that seeks to unify all forces of nature. In this chapter, the problem is turned over to AI, reckoning that it cannot be tackled without full contextualization, that is, without dealing with other intimately related core matters in particle cosmology. This chapter describes how AI squarely addresses the matter in its full relational and contextual richness. In this context, AI first approaches the origin of the matter regarding it as a phase transition induced by the activation of a portal gauge particle that becomes endowed with a symmetry-breaking stable vacuum through mixing with one specific shade of ur-matter. This communication is enabled by compatible symmetries between a specific ur-matter shade and the standard model of particle physics. In a final synthesis, AI reveals that the four fundamental forces stem from one primeval force present at the Planck epoch. This force is diluted in different ways into the geometry of the universe in accordance with the generalized symmetries of force carriers activated at successive phase transitions in the aftermath of creation.
