We propose that holographic spacetimes can be regarded as collections of quantum circuits based on path-integrals. We relate a codimension one surface in a gravity dual to a quantum circuit given by a path-integration on that surface with an appropriate UV cut off. Our proposal naturally generalizes the conjectured duality between the AdS/CFT and tensor networks. This largely strengthens the surface/state duality and also provides a holographic explanation of path-integral optimizations. For static gravity duals, our new framework provides a derivation of the holographic complexity formula given by the gravity action on the WDW patch. We also propose a new formula which relates numbers of quantum gates to surface areas, even including time-like surfaces, as a generalization of the holographic entanglement entropy formula. We argue the time component of the metric in AdS emerges from the density of unitary quantum gates in the dual CFT. Our proposal also provides a heuristic understanding how the gravitational force emerges from quantum circuits.

Temporal Entanglement from Twist Correlators in 2d Conformal Field Theory and Holography
Timelike entanglement entropy in 2d CFT is defined by time-ordered twist correlators, whose holographic saddles are complex geodesics with smallest real length, and whose imaginary part counts causal-diamond crossings...

Emergent Holographic Spacetime from Quantum Information
Takayanagi's essay outlines a research program in which holographic spacetime, including the time direction, may emerge from entanglement, complexity, and complex-valued pseudo-entropy, without presenting a new derivation.
