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

Futurum

Because computational methods originated in the natural sciences, some disciplines, such as chemistry and physics, have lots of research software at their disposal. Once this is done, the CTC video footage will be accessible to artificial intelligence image analysis techniques. Scientific imaging in physics.

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

Stephen Wolfram

I could write down equations and do math. So for me it was obvious: if I couldn’t figure out things myself with math, I should use a computer. It wasn’t something one could readily see with math. But it really wasn’t physics, or computer science, or math, or biology, or economics, or any known field.

What Is ChatGPT Doing … and Why Does It Work?

Stephen Wolfram

It takes special effort to do math in one’s brain. And instead there are processes—probably like the one below—where to work out what happens inevitably requires essentially tracing each computational step: The kinds of things that we normally do with our brains are presumably specifically chosen to avoid computational irreducibility.
