Is Computer Science STEM – The Link Between the Two

STEM Education Guide

While the science aspect (chemistry, biology, and physics) and mathematics (calculus and algebra) is a breeze to figure out, the engineering and technology aspects are less straightforward. Nonetheless, defining STEM can be an uphill battle as it’s a popular term with several meanings to many people.

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

In 2000 I was interested in what the simplest possible axiom system for logic (Boolean algebra) might be. Perhaps even the architecture of the network can change. Probably it’s because neural nets capture the architectural essence of actual brains. The simplest known up to that time involved 9 binary ( Nand ) operations.

What can stars reveal about galaxies and what can cultures reveal about stars?

Futurum

I liked all kinds of science when I was at school – biology, chemistry, physics. I work with the Project for Inmate Education programme at UCSC, where I teach algebra and astronomy in Santa Cruz jail facilities. I was also interested in sports and enjoyed both watching and playing lots of different sports.

Even beyond Physics: Introducing Multicomputation as a Fourth General Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

But among the examples I’ve at least begun to investigate are metamathematics, molecular biology, evolutionary biology, molecular computing, neuroscience, machine learning, immunology, linguistics, economics and distributed computing. Chemistry / Molecular Biology. There are many. Perhaps not for chemistry as it’s done today.

The Concept of the Ruliad

Stephen Wolfram

The global structures of metamathematics , economics , linguistics and evolutionary biology seem likely to provide examples—and in each case we can expect that at the core is the ruliad, with its unique structure. For sure, the “sensory apparatus” that we effectively use is different in different cases. But that’s not all there is to it.

Remembering the Improbable Life of Ed Fredkin (1934–2023) and His World of Ideas and Stories

Stephen Wolfram

Then McCarthy started to explain ways a computer could do algebra. It was all algebra. And the only conclusion we can arrive at is that a person can’t do this much algebra with the hope of getting it right.” And Minsky mentioned work a student of his was doing on the “AI problem” of symbolic integration.
