AI overview
Quantum gravity is a field of theoretical physics that attempts to reconcile two of science's most successful theories—quantum mechanics (which describes the very small) and general relativity (which describes gravity and large-scale structures)—into a single, unified framework. Physicists pursue this because these two theories contradict each other in extreme conditions like those found at the center of black holes or at the moment of the Big Bang, so a unified theory is needed to understand physics in these regimes.
