The AdS/CFT correspondence from string theory provides a quantum theory of gravity in which spacetime and gravitational physics emerges from an ordinary non-gravitational system with many degrees of freedom. In this talk, I will explain how quantum entanglement between these degrees of freedom is crucial for the emergence of a classical spacetime, and how Einstein's equations can be derived at...
