What do you think Euclid would have accomplished if he had a computer [and a license of WL]?
In what ways are you better than AI?
JavaScript will run out of milliseconds in 270,000 years. Have you ever written code that created a date object past that time? How far in the future could Wolfram Language represent?
Is it possible to have a civilization purely based on biological technology for example building microscopes , airplanes etc made out of organic materials and by growing them somehow?

What is the history of bugs and debugging?
Did you ever meet Andrei Sakharov? What do you think of his Cosmology?
How did you meet Nassim Nicholas Taleb, and why do you think he was able to take very computational approach to finance instead of reasoning by analogy?
How does Log4Shell compare to other historically-significant web vulnerabilities? Does the internet tend to course correct after large vulnerabilities?

Could you build a reverse natural language understanding engine? One that would take in Wolfram Language / JavaScript / Python and output natural language explaining what the code is doing?
Dr. Wolfram, any suggestion on what problems/case work to use for introductory programming?
Why is is harder to compute integrals rather than derivatives?
Are there any major changes to the design, architecture, or low level code of computers that are now standardized that you would change if you could?
Are there laws governing the development of human history?
Any tricks for reading textbooks that maximize the understanding of the material?

Do you think of science/technology as progressing in the way Thomas Kuhn suggested in 'The Structure of Scientific Revolution' (i.e., paradigm - crisis - paradigm shift, incommensurability, etc...) or in some other way?
Stephen, is science always been based on finding patterns in nature?
Why did networked computing grow relatively slowly between 1969's Arpanet and 1989's HTTP? Was it a lack of imagining the internet's potential or technical barriers (e.g. packet switching network)?
When did you first get introduced to the internet? Who told you about it? What tool(s) did you use...Mosaic? What was your reaction?
Why do you believe it took so long for highly parallel graphics cards to be applied to scientific fields? It seems like a 10-15 year delay from SGI to CUDA etc
Stephen has said once that he knew Julia Robinson. Would be great to hear more about it
Any thoughts on the Heideggerian view of technology and modern technology?
How does self-organizing order emerge in physics and biology - are they analogous? Can the universe be said to be in the business of self organization?

Can you use Wolfram Language to log onto a website with username and password and read data from a website?
Will computational chem/Biochem programs (Alphafold2?) be accurate enough in its predictions to completely dominate private R&D to reduce the costs and durations of expensive wet lab experimentation?
When did you first decide to hire people at Wolfram Research? How did you recruit & evaluate them? What have you learned about hiring since then?
Have you ever authentically read and replied to an unsolicited email if someone has an important idea for Mathematica and/or the Wolfram Language?
Do you have developers that work in a large variety of topics (changing monthly perhaps), or are most in a 'fixed' position/topic?
When you reach the level you do with Wolfram Research, what steps do you undertake to ensure that you continue to innovate and don't lose ground to your competitors, and that you don't take the wrong business decisions?
As someone with a technical background, how do you maintain a holistic overview of your company? For instance, do you better attempt to understand the company's financial books?
What is your work out routine?
How do you balance time being creative (for projects) vs the everyday necessary work?
At the start of crypto projects there is always this battle between centralization and decentralization. You need an amount of centralization in the beginning to get things going. How long should a project be given before you let in the masses?
Do you have an opinion concerning "Poor Charlie's Almanack: The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger"?
Do you use rules similar to those in Cellular Automata when you manage your company or your company's projects?
