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

Stephen Wolfram

So now it’s natural to wonder: How far will this go? My goal here is to explore some of the science, technology—and philosophy—of what we can expect from AIs. How does all this relate to technology? Well, technology is about taking what’s out there in the world, and harnessing it for human purposes.

The Physicalization of Metamathematics and Its Implications for the Foundations of Mathematics

Stephen Wolfram

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. and at t steps gives a total number of rules equal to: &#10005. But what can we do with this statement? &#10005.

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

Stephen Wolfram

This proof is easily obtained, however, by the method which I am about to explain… (He gives a long footnote explaining why Maxwell might be wrong, talking about how a sequence of collisions might lead to a “cycle of velocity states”—which Maxwell hasn’t proved will be traversed with equal probability in each direction.
