So what about science? But that certainly doesn’t mean AI can’t importantly help the progress of science. But what I want to do here is to discuss what amount to deeper questions about AI in science. Three centuries ago science was transformed by the idea of representing the world using mathematics.

An elaborate description of a wild idea. In the forty years I knew Ed Fredkin I heard countless wild ideas and colorful stories from him. But it also led him to the idea that the universe must be a giant cellular automaton—whose program he could invent. A long and colorful story. I’d politely ask for details.

And it’s all based on ideas from our Physics Project —and on a fundamental correspondence between what’s happening at the lowest level in all physical processes and in expression evaluation. In our Physics Project we have called the states obtained by applying maximal collections of events at a time “ generational states ”.

Thanks to some heroic software engineering by our team and by OpenAI , ChatGPT can now call on Wolfram|Alpha—and Wolfram Language as well—to give it what we might think of as “computational superpowers”. But now we can go on and ask for a map: But there are “prettier” map projections we could have used. But not the centering.

One might have thought it was already exciting enough for our Physics Project to be showing a path to a fundamental theory of physics and a fundamental description of how our physical universe works. For three hundred years the mathematical paradigm was the state of the art in theoretical science—and immense progress was made using it.

Can we decipher the mechanisms that allow plant cells to communicate? At Professor Dave Jackson ’s lab at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) in New York, USA, scientists are studying the mechanisms that co-ordinate plant development. We have some ideas… but it’s a little too early to discuss them,” says Dave. IOS-1930101.

This is the first of a series of pieces I’m planning in connection with the upcoming 20th anniversary of the publication of A New Kind of Science. “There’s a Whole New Field to Build…” For me the story began nearly 50 years ago —with what I saw as a great and fundamental mystery of science. How is it made?

Back then I definitely hadn’t internalized it, but I think what was so exciting that day was that I got a first taste of the idea that one didn’t have to be told how the world works; one could just figure it out: I didn’t yet understand quite a bit of the math in the book. Did I talk about statistical mechanics and the Second Law?

My goal here is to explore some of the science, technology—and philosophy—of what we can expect from AIs. The results (which ultimately rely on all sorts of specific engineering) are remarkably “human like”. And suddenly we realized that an AI could write a passable human-like essay. So now it’s natural to wonder: How far will this go?
