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. Scientific imaging in physics.

Could it really be that this was the secret that nature had been using all along to make complexity? But it really wasn’t physics, or computer science, or math, or biology, or economics, or any known field. Sometimes they have been based on constructing programs to reproduce behavior. What is that science?

One of the notable features of a system like ChatGPT is that it isn’t constructed in an “understand-every-step” traditional engineering way. But it also highlights how significant our specifics—our particular history, biology, etc.—are. Vastly more ornate “food constructions” might become the norm.

It began partly as an empirical law, and partly as something abstractly constructed on the basis of the idea of molecules, that nobody at the time knew for sure existed. But what’s important for our purposes here is that in the setup Carnot constructed he basically ended up introducing the Second Law.
