Student-Centered Computing: Teaching Computer Science Using Culturally Authentic Practices

National Science Foundation

Though women were once at the forefront of developing the disciplines of computer programming and software engineering (Berkeley School of Information, 2021), the computer science (CS) workforce in the US for the past three decades has become a field of mostly White and Asian men. Building equity through collaborative work.

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

But as it is, the apparent failure of neural nets provides another piece of evidence for computational irreducibility in the three-body problem. We already know that discrete computational systems like cellular automata are rife with computational irreducibility.
