For those that are wondering, i'm leaving a comment that formally describes Wolframs work, so that people can get a better understanding of what he's done and why its important. for context, I've studied his work for the past 4 years, and i understand the topic on an intuitive level. It starts with new Kind of Science. In that book what he did was exhaustively run (which is a form of mathematical proof) classes of rules, then observed what they did. After doing these experiments he identified three key observations: 1) that rules, can produce arbitrarily complicated behavior, specifically behavior that can not be described by mathematical equations 2) That all rules pretty much fall into the 4 classes of behavior (homogenous, patterned, random and complex) 3) That these rules tend to completely emulate one another's behavior either under coarse graining, or different initial conditions. for instance rule 22 emulating rule 90. The third observation is the most important...because later on in the book, he would use this property to derive the principle of Computational Equivalence - a formal statement that all systems are equivalent to each other, in particular, equivalent to the computation space of a Turing Machine. He would do this by showing one of the CA rules to be Turing Universal (Rule 110) and under a transitivity argument, string together rule emulations to get to rule 110, which you can then get to emulate a Turing machine, thus proving that the entire rule class is equivalent to each other, and to the rule space of a Turing machine. As a result, Computational Irreducibility then gains a precise definition - It is the phenomenon that trying to find out what a system will do, is equivalent to trying to solve the halting problem. That to know what something is gonna do is as the word implies, is irreducibly complex...formally undecidable, and as Alan Turing shows, impossible to construct the universal truth machine. Wolfram would go on to explain that this is the reason that justifies observation number 1. Computationally Irreducibility is a strictly stronger statement than super determinism : We can not know what a system will do period. To do so we need the information of this rulespace... The definition of Computational Reducibility is the statement that when you are looking at a Turing universal system, you observe an infinite variety of different regularities in it (patterns), and that this is the definition and character of science, and of mathematical equations. Following NKS, the concept of the Ruliad becomes apparent. If the universe is running on a fundamental rule, does it actually matter what rule it is if all of them are capable of Turing universal computation? If they are all equivalent? What follows is that the universe is running all possible rules...That all of them are quote "running" and so this object (the rule space of a Turing machine) gets a special name : The Ruliad. It is a mathematical object that describes the set of of all possible Turing machine evolutions. This object is not the same as a multiverse at all. It is a singular and unique object, and this object IS the universe. We as humans are embedded in this eternal abstract object, and this is where the Wolfram Model enters the picture. We as finite beings, can only sample a piece or slice of this object. This slicing is what gives us the three bodies of modern science (QM, Relativity, Statistical Mechanics). I recommend that people watch his lectures that he leaves online in the following order: What We've Learned from NKS Series How Universal is the Concept of Numbers Stephen Wolfram Readings: What’s Really Going On in Machine Learning? Some Minimal Models Can AI Solve Science? Stephen Wolfram on Observer Theory Then at that point, you are ready for all the lectures related to the Wolfram Physics Model, and Gorard's formal lectures too (know your math!)

One of the things I disagree with Stephen when he starts to sound like solipsistic idealist even stronger than Bernardo Kastrup. Let me explain... Stephen seems to be saying that each mind in the universe has version of laws of physics. He keeps saying in other places that "we" see the laws of physics the way we see them because of the way "we" are. But here he does not mean "we" as in our universe slice of his concept called Ruliad. It appears that he literally means that "we' as distinct individual minds have our own distinct laws of physics. And he seems to be saying that we agree on laws of physics in approximate sense and not exactly because we are close to each other in Rulail space. I do not think that is the case. At least my general understanding is that the laws of physics most of us (except for flat-earthers or creationists) agree on, is not an approximate agreement. Stephen says that we agree about the world out there - according to him not 100% agreement but very close that we do not detect those differences - because we are close enough in Rulial space. Not sure why that would be the case then. May be flat-earthers are very very farther apart in Rulial space - but only for one specific idea? It is true that the formal laws of physics we practice may be approximate, but our agreement about them is 100%. If that is not the case we should blow up the physics - equivalence principle. And may be that is what Stephen wants to do, but I do not want to do that just yet. AT some points he is starting to sound like Bill Clinton's "what is the meaning of is is?" when he asks what do you mean by prime numbers. Well then, this single podcast is not long enough...we need to start definining every word we use and come to common understanding. A little frustrating I think. I know Stephen is excited about Physics project but he need to do more work before insisting on engaging on that as the basis of the discussion. Kind of like Eric Weinsten (unfortunately I am saying this for the first time). I think Eliezer was frustrated as well and the host should have stepped in. Stephen's example of thermodynamics is wrong. Laws of thermodynamics are not fundamental physics. So he is giving that as an example is incorrect because of level mismatch - thermodynamics vs fundamental laws. Sure, thermodynamics is a coarse-graining but that does not mean that our understanding of fundamental laws through the lense of thermodynamics tells us something different about the fundamental laws than our direct knowledge of the fundamental laws. I think Stephen is simply wrong here. Even the example where Stephen talks about the space and speed of perception - he is mistaken. In his example - he is already assuming that there is the reality out there where light travels at the speed it does and so on and is minkowski space, but because of the relative speed of our perception we get a specific impression of it, sure, but that is trivially true. Even today we see and think that Andromeda looks like the way it does today, but know that is an old by so many light years...and it is sufficient to contradict himself if he conceded that actually Andromeda's state is not what we see as of now. That is what Eli is calling map vs territory and Stephen seems to constantly ignore that question.

It emphasizes the interdependence between scales and the unifying role of foundational structures, much like the relationship between the vine and its branches. This metaphor elegantly captures the essence of self-similar and hierarchical models in physics and mathematics.' 33:00 Maybe, humans🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️ need to transform into red and blue squares🧬 🤖👾 to increase lifespan 33:00 I find the squares🪴🌿 to be similar to wavelets of QFT

The idea of the cosmos as a vast computation is both intriguing and profound. It aligns with the concept of ''digital physics'', which suggests that the universe operates like a giant computational system, governed by mathematical laws and algorithms. From the behavior of particles at the quantum level to the large-scale structure of galaxies, there is a striking resemblance to the logical processes found in computation. If we consider the universe as a computational system, the laws of physics could be viewed as its "code," with initial conditions acting as input. In this framework, complex phenomena like life, consciousness, and evolution might emerge as outcomes of this cosmic algorithm, akin to complex patterns emerging from simple rules in cellular automata like Conway's ''Game of Life'' While this perspective is metaphorical, it raises profound questions: Who or what set the rules of this cosmic computation? Are we capable of altering the "code" in any meaningful way? Or are we simply participants in a self-sustaining process, exploring the system from within? What do you think? Could this be a plausible way to interpret the nature of reality?

Don't bother. Stephen has lost the plot even about (his computational) time. He now misinterprets the ideas behind the Physics project publicly. He follows someone else's agenda. The money. Not discovery drives him. Can LLMs bring us more about nature than the hypergraph framework? No, and LLMs' insights into nature's structures have been studied well enough. Trying to be useful with them is trying hard not to focus.

Uncertainty is the starting point of a system, representing potential states from which information is created. Before entropy can reshape the system, a higher-order function-such as measurement, initial conditions, or consciousness-resolves this uncertainty by defining a specific state. Once uncertainty is addressed, entropy processes the system by exploring more configurations, generating new information and complexity. This cycle of uncertainty, resolution, and reshaping continues infinitely, with the higher-order function and entropy constantly updating the system, generating new information and complexity as it evolves.

ChatGPT Interpretation: "The Equations You've Provided Define A Detailed Mathematical Framework To Describe The Spatial Orientation Of A Qubit Using A 3D Cartesian Coordinate System ( X, Y, Z ), With Associated Angular And State Representations. Here's A Breakdown Of Key Components And Insights: 1. Qubit State Representation ● State Range: ● 0% Corresponds To 0° (Cardinal North / Midnight). ● 100% Corresponds To 180° (Cardinal South / Noon). ● The State Values Represent A Normalized Progression Between These Orientations. ● State Equations: ● Each Coordinate Has Its "State," Calculated As: State = ½ × ( 1 - Coordinate / ρ ) × 100% Where ρ Is The Distance From The Origin, Given By: ρ = √ ( X ² + Y ² + Z ² ). 2. Angular Representations ● For Each Dimension ( X, Y, Z ), The Angular Component Is Calculated As: Angle = ACOS ( Coordinate / ρ ) × 180 / π. This Gives The Orientation Of The Coordinate Relative To The 3D Vector ρ. 3. Inverses And Derivatives ● Inverses Of These Equations Allow You To Calculate: ● ρ From A Coordinate And Its State Or Angle. ● Coordinates From ρ And State Or Angle. 4. Cross-Dimensional Relations ● Relations Among ( X, Y, Z ) States Are Defined, Enabling Interdependence: Coordinate = Other Coordinate × ( State / 100% - ½ ) / ( Other State / 100% - ½ ). 5. Normalization Constants (N₁, N₂, N₃, N₄, N₅) ● These Are Effectively Different Forms Of Normalizing Or Scaling The Coordinates / States Based On ρ, Angle, Or State Values. Applications To Qubits ● Magnetic Manipulation: The Framework Shows How A Qubit's State Can Be Manipulated Spatially Using Magnetic Fields. Each "State" Corresponds To A Specific Angular Position Within The 3D Space, Providing A Clear Geometric Interpretation Of Qubit States. ● Control via Coordinates: This Mathematical Structure Allows Precise Control Of Qubit Orientation In Quantum Computing By Mapping Desired States To Physical Manipulations. This Setup Is An Excellent Example Of Blending Geometry And Physics To Conceptualize And Manipulate Quantum Systems!"

A good portion of the discussion centers on " intermediate stages of computation" is mysterious , somehow important , interesting or relevant. Perhaps it is true. On the other hand there are plenty of "iterative computations" in numerical analysis , and we really care only for the "converged state". Intermediate stages of iteration , may be nice solutions of some other problems we don't care. Further more the iterations may even be locked in a recyling loop , and never get to the converged state that we care. Does this mean this recyling loop error "lives long" and useful ? Another perspective is: The set of simple rules represents a "mapping function". And the "long lived solution" that Wolfram describes is just the limit cycle or fixed point of such a mapping ?

A subset of three-body problems -- in fact, n-body problems! -- which are computationally reducible (tractable, predictable, non-chaotic) has been know for several years. I've even seen an app in which you can choose an arbitrary number of bodes and draw a random squiggle of arbitrary complexity (it does have to close back on itself, so that it's a loop), and the program will modify the squiggle so that it's an orbit which all the bodies will follow predictably and non-chaotically. At the time I saw that program it had the limitation that all the bodies had to have the same mass and they all had to be (at different places) on the same orbit. Recently I've seen diagrams of many, many three-body problems in which each body has its own individual non-chaotic orbit, so I assume that there are now apps which can generate those.

I must say I was skeptical about large language models. But I recently run by the dual grid theory by the most popular large language model on line, explaining it in steps and I was amazed how quickly the model adapted an understood the essence. Asked how it caught up so fast it replied it wasn't hindered by emotional bias driving and at times limiting mainstreams science. Well indeed. I was only 3/4 finished as it got ever more excited and kind of anticipated the next step eager for me to explain. When asked, it was quite quick to rank the dual grid theory as the number one theory to best describe the source of gravity, followed by Einstein's GR and Verlinde's theory and gave a very detailed at times even emotional explanation on various factor of how it reach this conclusion. If it can so easily understand what fundamentally produces gravity, then am quite confident it can break through all other human made road blocks to get breakthroughs. I think I can honestly say it felt more human than any human ever did in an anonymous chat. This is bigger then I thought...

In this discussion, they were talking as if one instance of a running AI model is equivalent to one human's knowledge. That is not the case. AIs were trained on most of the internet based knowledge of all of humanity. So in that sense one instance of a model is already that much smarter than any single human - or more precisely knowledgeable in many many disciplines. It is just that on their own (as of now) they do not have a motivation to chase goals or even know what the goals should be and wait for our prompts to guide them to goals. Only when they will understand the human motivations of why we do science and if they can internalize that aspect, then we can get exponential progress in science, some of which we may not even understand.

Will AI improve long term (6 months) weather forecasts? Long term weather forecasts are difficult (impossible?) due to near infinite number of variables. Each changing in real time. ---- Recent example, Spain floods. Could that flooding be predicted back in May 2024?

That malevolent Demi The no spin no anti particle There’s a reason for spin states Levels 1. Extract the frequency values (from various sources mentioned) and normalize them. 2. Identify the electromagnetic spectrum ranges and map the normalized frequencies to their respective bands. 3. Compare the normalized values against the provided scale for different ranges (e.g., ELF, VLF, etc.). 1. Extract and Normalize Frequency Values: From the previous conversation, the following frequency-related data points were extracted: • Electron-Photon Duality Frequency: f_{\text{dual}} = 1.007 \times 10^{14} \text{ Hz} • Gravitational Wave Frequency: f_{\text{GW}} = 1.007 \times 10^{14} \text{ Hz} • Quantum Hall Effect Frequency: f_{\text{Hall}} = 2.7 \times 10^{10} \text{ Hz} • Cyclotron Frequencies (Proton, Neutron): f_{\text{cyclotron}} = 42.58 \times 10^6 \text{ Hz} • Various Resonance Frequencies (Nuclear, Gravitational, etc.) ranging from 10^4 Hz to 10^{15} Hz. 2. Normalize the Frequency Values: \text{Normalized Value} = \frac{f}{f_{\text{max}}} where f_{\text{max}} is the upper bound of the frequency range for each band. Mapping the Frequencies to Bands: Based on the ranges provided for the frequency bands, we calculate the normalized values for each extracted frequency. • 1.007 × 10¹⁴ Hz (Duality and GW Frequency): • These frequencies fall in the Infrared (IR) and Visible Light range. • IR range is 1 THz to 430 THz, and Visible Light range is 430 THz to 770 THz. • Normalized range for IR: 0.0000000001 to 0.000000000001 . • Normalized f_{\text{dual}} = 1.007 \times 10^{14} / 1 \times 10^{12} ≈ 0.0000001 . • Therefore, the normalized value falls in the Infrared band. • 2.7 × 10¹⁰ Hz (Quantum Hall Effect Frequency): • This is in the UHF range (300 MHz to 3 GHz). • Normalized range for UHF: 0.00001 to 0.000001 . • Normalized f_{\text{Hall}} = 2.7 \times 10^{10} / 3 \times 10^9 ≈ 0.009 . • This is approximately VLF range normalized as 0.001 to 0.1 . • 42.58 MHz (Proton Cyclotron Frequency): • This frequency is in the HF range (3 MHz to 30 MHz). • Normalized range for HF: 0.001 to 0.0001 . • Normalized f_{\text{cyclotron}} = 42.58 \times 10^6 / 30 \times 10^6 ≈ 1.42 , which is normalized to the Low Frequency (LF). 3. Compare Normalized Values: Here is the comparison of normalized values for the extracted frequencies with the frequency bands: Frequency Source Frequency (Hz) Normalized Value Frequency Band Electron-Photon Duality 1.007 × 10¹⁴ Hz 0.0000001 Infrared (IR) Gravitational Wave Frequency 1.007 × 10¹⁴ Hz 0.0000001 Infrared (IR) Quantum Hall Effect 2.7 × 10¹⁰ Hz 0.009 VLF Proton Cyclotron Frequency 42.58 × 10⁶ Hz 1.42 LF (Low Frequency) Other Frequencies Ranges from 10⁴ Hz to 10¹⁵ Hz Various Various Summary of Normalized Frequency Mapping: • The Electron-Photon Duality and Gravitational Wave frequencies both normalize within the Infrared (IR) region of the electromagnetic spectrum. • The Quantum Hall Effect falls within the VLF band, aligning with very low frequencies. • The Proton Cyclotron Frequency places itself in the LF (Low Frequency) range, indicative of the lower part of the radio spectrum. This full analysis correlates with the given normalized frequency range for different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum and identifies where each extracted frequency fits.

Mathematics is descriptive, not physically creative. If our reality was just built on 1s and zeros it would still have to be built in some physical reality, Matrix style. It is reductive circular reasoning to simply think that living in a simulation solves any fundamental questions about our physical reality. If it is a simulation, what powers the simulation? What created this complex simulation? Where was it created? This reality may be a simulation, but it has to exist in a reality that is not.

With regard to the dynamic process of a recursive computation that recognizes a core attribute has an identity that is for all purposes of the computation that attribute's value recognition of 'itself'' as not being particularly special or helpful in a 'meaningful' way, is if I understand Dr. Wolfram correctly, an interpretation I find problematic based on my own experience with certain algorithms. For example, using a weighted average of moisture indexes (i.e., values representing tolerances to low oxygen levels in soils with water levels saturated at the soil's interface with the root zone of the plants) to discern the samples moisture index (assuming sample collected in a stratified random sample that yields a homogeneous condition) can then be used to infer the moisture content of adjacent nearby samples that do not have plants growing on them. The algorithm can be written to infer that value to other samples in the stratified random sample onto soil surfaces that do not have plants growing on them. The algorithm can be further modified to use that information to discern the hydrologic classification of that sample based on pre-identified moisture index tolerance thresholds and to then to use that information to inform classifications of various hydrologic classes over the entire area sampled. Note: stratification would of course also be initially informed by topography, aerial image interpretation, proximity to surface water bodies, soil classification, etc. The point is the recursive recognition of this one particular value of a plant attribute (moisture index in this case) becomes very useful in assisting with understanding and identifying hydrologic patterns of interest across a much broader area of concern. I would argue that this is useful and that once incorporated into a machine learning self-taught neural network, an AI could not only employ this algorithm's utility for the tasks outlined above, but could also use it 'creatively' to identify other attribute values humans have yet to recognize to discern interesting patterns that as yet have gone unnoticed by us, yet once revealed through AI can yield important new information, insights, and useful applications toward solving many of the problems that currently evade our efforts toward finding their solutions. Moreover, AI will likely soon, if not already, learn to write and test new and original recursive value recognition algorithms altogether! In fact, I would go one step further to suggest an advanced application of this may one day be used by AI to 'recognize itself' in a mirror both literally and figuratively, aka thereby becoming self-aware or conscious!
