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

Stephen Wolfram

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021

But in a quirk of history that I now realize had tremendous significance, I had just spent a couple of years creating a big computer system that was ultimately a direct forerunner of our modern Wolfram Language. So for me it was obvious: if I couldn’t figure out things myself with math, I should use a computer. Mathematical physics.

How Inevitable Is the Concept of Numbers?

Stephen Wolfram

MAY 25, 2021

And in it this computation is going on: &#10005. Let’s change the rule for the computation a bit. But that ignores the phenomenon of computational irreducibility. But it’s a fundamental fact of the computational universe that the result doesn’t have to be simple: &#10005. Imagine you have some sophisticated AI.

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

Stephen Wolfram

JANUARY 31, 2023

Computational Foundations for the Second Law of Thermodynamics (forthcoming) 2. But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. This is part 3 in a 3-part series about the Second Law: 1.

A 50-Year Quest: My Personal Journey with the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

FEBRUARY 2, 2023

Computational Foundations for the Second Law of Thermodynamics (forthcoming) 2. Building on an earlier interest in space and spacecraft , I’d gotten very interested in physics, and was trying to read everything I could about it. There were several shelves of physics books at the local bookstore. How Did We Get Here?

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

Stephen Wolfram

MARCH 15, 2023

And all I’ll be able to do here is give a snapshot of my current thinking—which will inevitably be incomplete—not least because, as I’ll discuss, trying to predict how history in an area like this will unfold is something that runs straight into an issue of basic science: the phenomenon of computational irreducibility.
