Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

It’s worth mentioning, by the way, that while the three-body problem does show sensitive dependence on initial conditions , that’s not the primary issue here; rather, it’s the actual intrinsic complexity of the trajectories.) We already know that discrete computational systems like cellular automata are rife with computational irreducibility.
