Can machine learning find a pattern in all animal languages?
Cat: "Meow." Translation: "What a glorious day to be alive. I think I will frolic in the fields and catch myself some field mice for my tea. Then I shall sit down and ponder the nature of the universe."
What is time?
If the rules repeat a state, does that mean time has gone backwards?
So less computation allowed for the progression of time? Time slows down the faster you go?
Communication speed between Mars and Earth is not instantaneous. So wouldn't both the sender and the receiver never have real-time data of what was happening on both planets? We on Earth may only find out that something terrible happened on Mars after it's too late, correct?
Is there an "objective" time in Wolfram physics? Is the "frame rate" the same everywhere?
How do I prove that matter is made of atoms?
How would you solve 100/4(2+3)?

When, for you, was a computational approach introduced to the scientific process or the scientific culture?Who began the trend of naming discoveries, inventions, etc. after yourself?Became clear? How? Pretty sure no one ever solved the three-body equation.Commentary about naming conventions.The Trojan asteroids are named after characters from the Trojan War in Greek mythology because of the convention that started with the discovery of the first few such asteroids near Jupiter. These asteroids occupy stable Lagrangian points (L4 and L5) in Jupiter's orbit, and astronomers decided to name them after heroes from the Trojan War, with those at L4 being named after Greek heroes and those at L5 named after Trojan heroes.Any planned work with tungsten?Regarding naming, are there any good naming conventions in computer languages?What's your view of innovation in economic science? We are nearly 250 years since Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations.Recall the idea of "Recapitate" instead of "Apply" View Less »

What are your thoughts on machine learning to create new genera? Like what would be a good way to go about doing something like that? Like a new genera of plants/animals? Can you talk about the future of information gathering and research? Say I am discussing with a robot a paper I am writing and the robot is providing examples and evidence to support my arguments—do I cite the robot as my source? Or do I have to find where the robot got the information? How advanced do you think AI available to consumers (like ChatGPT) will be by August 2029? Hello, Dr. Wolfram. My name is Grace and I'm currently preparing to pursue a PhD in fiber science. My research interests lie at the intersection of computational materials science and sustainable textile innovation. I have a background in pharmaceutical sciences. I've recently been exploring how advanced computational methods can be applied to fiber science, specifically in developing smart and sustainable textiles. How do you foresee quantum computing impacting the modeling and simulation of complex fibers and polymers? What's your take on integrating memory into LLMs to enable retention across sessions? How could this impact their performance and capabilities? What are your intuitions about the AI-generated fake content to deceive people, whether using deep fake face swaps or voice cloning or one or more things combined? Are we rapidly approaching a point where we won't be able to trust anything on the internet? When do you expect the discovery of life on an exoplanet? Is the hype around LLMs dying, finally relegating the toys to the toy box where they belong, or do you think anyone will ever be able to make them useful and accurate?Do you think future cars will be able to get rid of wheels? What algorithms changed the world the most? What's the next algorithm that will change the world? How does one release such an algorithm so that the result is positive? View Less »

Do you only collect books that you find useful/actually read? Or do you have some books that are there purely for "looks"?
On the current topic of books, to what extent have you transitioned to electronic books and reading, if at all, and how do you foresee physical books fitting your workflow and life going forward?
You seem to enjoy what you do with your business very much. I'm curious what you enjoy to do for a good vacation with regard to managing life?
Saw your driver's license on X! What's the biggest difference between UK and US driving? Which do you prefer?
For me the best, I would like to have both the physical book and the audiobook version. The audiobook helps to have a bit passive osmosis-like way to absorb the content, and I can go to parts that I am still confused about in the physical book. But the ability to search what you hear in the audiobook should be an option.
What is the key to a happy/content life in your opinion?
What would be the best arrangement in an innovation setting that collaboration won't create a conflict about who would get what credit?
Have you tried the Daylight computer yet?
Did you ever raise money for your company? It seems you've maintained freedom far better than other entrepreneurs.
Happy early birthday! Do you "feel" your age? You seem surprisingly active for retirement age.
I can't see the point of retiring. If you do what you love, then why stop?
I help people to retire. I would suggest that, if your job is stressful, retirement is strongly correlated with better health.
I am a baker by trade. I wanted to do mathematics when I was a teen but dropped out. Stephen's programs were a huge inspiration for me back in the late 90s. I am now in my 40s and looking to go back into maths and engineering.
What is your choice of birthday cake flavor?
Brain vascularization/oxygenation (through exercise) is such an underappreciated competitive advantage in cognitively demanding fields.
When I went to Switzerland, I indulged in the chocolate frequently!
