But in a quirk of history that I now realize had tremendous significance, I had just spent a couple of years creating a big computer system that was ultimately a direct forerunner of our modern Wolfram Language. So for me it was obvious: if I couldn’t figure out things myself with math, I should use a computer. Computation theory.

We can think of the ruliad as the entangled limit of all possible computations—or in effect a representation of all possible formal processes. Many of these consequences are incredibly complicated, and full of computational irreducibility. But now we can make a bridge to mathematics. So is something similar happening with mathematics?

But how does it do it? And why does it work?

Think of it as the entangled limit of everything that is computationally possible: the result of following all possible computational rules in all possible ways. And it’s one that I think has extremely deep implications—both in science and beyond. The full ruliad is in effect a representation of all possible computations.
