These are the students who end up hitting a wall when math courses move from easier algebra to more advanced concepts in, say, calculus, he argues. “At He argues that that’s why so many students get to college and have to repeat their first-year calculus course. So how do you achieve change in any setting if that's the case?

So many discoveries, so many inventions, so much achieved, so much learned. And key to everything we do is leveraging what we have already done—often taking what in earlier years was a pinnacle of technical achievement, and now using it as a routine building block to reach a level that could barely even be imagined before.

Line, Surface and Contour Integration “Find the integral of the function ” is a typical core thing one wants to do in calculus. And in Mathematica and the Wolfram Language that’s achieved with Integrate. And over the years that’s exactly what we’ve achieved—for integrals, sums, differential equations, etc. And in Version 13.3

The whole process of “prompt engineering” feels a bit like animal wrangling: you’re trying to get ChatGPT to do what you want, but it’s hard to know just what it will take to achieve that. In the past, one might have tried to achieve this “by hand” by starting with “boilerplate” pieces, then modifying them, “gluing” them together, etc.

It began partly as an empirical law, and partly as something abstractly constructed on the basis of the idea of molecules, that nobody at the time knew for sure existed. But, first and foremost, the story of the Second Law is the story of a great intellectual achievement of the mid-19th century.

It’s yet another surprising construct that’s arisen from our Physics Project. In some ways it’s a bit like our efforts to construct the ruliad. In constructing it, one can imagine using Turing machines or hypergraph rewriting systems or indeed any other kind of computational system. As an analogy, consider the real numbers.

It turns out that it’s possible to construct such a function. Later, we’ll talk about how such a function can be constructed, and the idea of neural nets. And the nontrivial scientific fact is that for an image-recognition task like this we now basically know how to construct functions that do this.
