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

Futurum

As a result, a new discipline, known as research computing, has emerged to apply computers, not just software, to research including to help scientists capture images, construct models, which are turned into simulations, and analyse results. Research computing is a sub-discipline of computer science.

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

Stephen Wolfram

One of the notable features of a system like ChatGPT is that it isn’t constructed in an “understand-every-step” traditional engineering way. There’s one category that in many ways seems surprising to still be “with us”: jobs that involve lots of mechanical manipulation, like construction, fulfillment, food preparation, etc.
