Notas del episodio

Explores the paradox created when Pinocchio says his nose will grow, linking this children's story to complex logical concepts. The authors analyze how this self-referential statement mirrors the Liar Paradox, Gödel's Incompleteness Theorems, Tarski's Undefinability Theorem, and Russell's Paradox.
