Even after everything our civilization has achieved, we’re just at the very, very beginning of exploring rulial space. The big achievements of AI in recent times have been about making systems that are closely aligned with us humans. Much like now most of nature doesn’t seem like it’s “achieving a purpose”. But what about AIs?

The whole process of “prompt engineering” feels a bit like animal wrangling: you’re trying to get ChatGPT to do what you want, but it’s hard to know just what it will take to achieve that. In the past, one might have tried to achieve this “by hand” by starting with “boilerplate” pieces, then modifying them, “gluing” them together, etc.

So many discoveries, so many inventions, so much achieved, so much learned. And key to everything we do is leveraging what we have already done—often taking what in earlier years was a pinnacle of technical achievement, and now using it as a routine building block to reach a level that could barely even be imagined before.

The Wolfram Language is important to LLMs—in providing a way to access computation and computational knowledge from within the LLM. We’ve always built—and deployed—Wolfram Language so it can be accessible to as many people as possible. And in Mathematica and the Wolfram Language that’s achieved with Integrate. And in Version 13.3

But beginning a little more than a century ago there emerged the idea that one could build mathematics purely from formal axioms, without necessarily any reference to what is accessible to sensory experience. So how about logic, or, more specifically Boolean algebra ? And in a way our Physics Project begins from a similar place.

This is particularly impressive when one considers that this is achieved without even knowing how non-stationary the environment is. He also recommends studying maths subjects such as algebra, calculus, probability and statistics. HOW GROUND-BREAKING IS THIS RESEARCH? PATHWAY FROM SCHOOL TO MACHINE LEARNING.

It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus). Project MAC After he left III in 1968, Ed’s next stop would be MIT, and specifically Project MAC (the “Multiple Access Computer” Project). Then McCarthy started to explain ways a computer could do algebra.

Any integral of an algebraic function can in principle be done in terms of our general DifferentialRoot objects. When you do operations on Around numbers the “errors” are combined using a certain calculus of errors that’s effectively based on Gaussian distributions—and the results you get are always in some sense statistical.
