Because computational methods originated in the natural sciences, some disciplines, such as chemistry and physics, have lots of research software at their disposal. This will increase the opportunities for RSEs and allow them to develop new and innovative software for more research areas.

But just by systematic enumeration the computer was able to find what seemed to me like a very “creative” result. and something like an LLM could “creatively” come up with these names. Once again, I had no idea this was “out there”, and certainly I would never have been able to construct it myself. So might AI change that?

People might say: “Computers can never show creativity or originality”. What if the innovations and discoveries just don’t matter, say to us humans? Well, we have natural language—probably the single most important innovation in the history of our species. What X is supposed to be has changed—and narrowed—over the years.

Over the years that followed there were all sorts of engineering innovations that increased the efficiency of steam engines. He was made “Sir William Thomson” and—along with two other techies—formed his first company, which had considerable success in exploiting telegraph-cable-related engineering innovations.

When Ed arrived at BU he found he was assigned to an office with a certain Gerard ‘t Hooft —who happens to be one of the more creative and productive theoretical physicists of the past half-century (and would win a Nobel Prize in 1999 for his efforts). But things didn’t go well and it wasn’t long before Ed stepped down from his role.
