Published: While art and science are often separated in academia, there is a lot to be learnt by considering them together. I was fascinated by the physical processes that underlie information processing, so studied physics and computer science initially. I want to tackle seemingly fuzzy problems with rigorous science.

School of Science and Technology. Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). From climate science and healthcare to business and robotics, a degree in physics can take you just about anywhere. If you are interested in soft matter, it would also be good to study another science, such as chemistry or biology.

This is the first of a series of pieces I’m planning in connection with the upcoming 20th anniversary of the publication of A New Kind of Science. “There’s a Whole New Field to Build…” For me the story began nearly 50 years ago —with what I saw as a great and fundamental mystery of science. How is it made?

And it’s one that I think has extremely deep implications—both in science and beyond. The ruliad is an ultimate example of multicomputation, and of what I’ve characterized as the fourth major paradigm for theoretical science. And this is where our pieces of “falsifiable natural science” come in.

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. Given a defined “goal”, an AI can automatically work towards achieving it. And suddenly we realized that an AI could write a passable human-like essay.

Statistical Mechanics and Simple Programs Back in 1973 I never really managed to do much science on the very first computer I used.

Or you could do what is the essence of theoretical science: make a model that gives some kind of procedure for computing the answer rather than just measuring and remembering each case. Well, you could just measure it in each case and make a table of the results. Nontrivial mathematics is one big example.
