The Source of the Universe

General relativity and quantum mechanics describe seemingly incompatible traits of our universe. Their unification into a theory-of-everything challenged physics for the last century.The GenI model satisfies both fundamental theories. It comprises a random walk process operating on a swarm-like construct and implements the competition among a finite set of ideas. GenI precisely fulfils the predictions of quantum measurements while its dynamics locally satisfy Einstein's field equation. The model suggests, that the perceivable universe is evolving according to the collapse of its quantum state rather than a smoothly evolving wave function as widely believed in modern physics. Consequently, gravitation cannot be directly derived from quantum mechanics or vice versa. Both simply describe distinct perspectives onto the previously unknown swarm-like decision process operating at the very basis of our universe.
