TL;DR

Physicists at RIKEN Interdisciplinary Theoretical and Mathematical Sciences in Japan have identified a new quantum property called "magic," which measures the weirdness of spacetime and is strongly involved in the emergence of spacetime geometry. The team found that in a chaotic system, almost any state will evolve into one that is "maximally magical," the most difficult to simulate. This discovery could help explain the origin of spacetime and the chaotic characteristic of black holes.
