of what’s now Wolfram Language —we were trying to develop algorithms to compute hundreds of mathematical special functions over very broad ranges of arguments. Back in 1987—as part of building Version 1.0 In the past, people had painstakingly computed series approximations for specific cases. So might AI change that?
