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

Stephen Wolfram

And at first I did so in the main scientific paradigm I knew : models based on mathematics and mathematical equations. From mathematics. Mathematical physics. By the late 1970s, though, there were other initiatives emerging, particularly coming from mathematics and mathematical physics. Synergetics.

What Is ChatGPT Doing … and Why Does It Work?

Stephen Wolfram

I should say at the outset that I’m going to focus on the big picture of what’s going on—and while I’ll mention some engineering details, I won’t get deeply into them. Then we might make a mathematical guess, like that perhaps we should use a straight line as a model: We could pick different straight lines.

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

Stephen Wolfram

The results (which ultimately rely on all sorts of specific engineering) are remarkably “human like”. Most of our existing intuition about “machinery” and “automation” comes from a kind of “clockwork” view of engineering—in which we specifically build systems component by component to achieve objectives we want.
