Imaging the invisible: how can research software and imaging techniques help scientists study the things we can’t see?

Futurum

When researchers visit the facility to capture images, they are supported by scientists, including research software engineers who help them process their data and access software. Once this is done, the CTC video footage will be accessible to artificial intelligence image analysis techniques.

Charting a Course for “Complexity”: Metamodeling, Ruliology and More

Stephen Wolfram

It seemed as if there was a vast new domain that had suddenly been made accessible to scientific exploration. And in it I could see so much great science that could be done, and so many wonderful opportunities for so many people. But I think it does well at communicating what this science that I’ve enjoyed for so long is about.

Will AIs Take All Our Jobs and End Human History—or Not? Well, It’s Complicated…

Stephen Wolfram

Processes in nature—like, for example, the weather—can be thought of as corresponding to computations. Yes, we can do natural science to figure out some aspects of what’s going to happen. We’ll be able to say some things—though perhaps in ways that are closer to psychology or social science than to traditional exact science.

How Did We Get Here? The Tangled History of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

Later he describes what he calls the “Principle of the Communication of Heat”. Whatever the decision may be, lasting gain will accrue to us from such a proceeding, since thereby we serve the chief end of natural science the enlargement of our stock of knowledge. Planck’s book came in a sense from the Clausius tradition.
