Wolfram Physics Project: Working Session Wednesday, Apr. 22, 2020 [Distributed Computing]

Stephen Wolfram & Jonathan Gorard continue answering questions about the new Wolfram Physics Project, this time specifically for a live working session of the project delving into distributed computing. Guests include Tali Beynon & Jesse Friedman. Begins at 6:15

Love these working group sessions. This gives me a way better sense of the project than the more scripted showcase presentations. Also learning a bunch of new topics and keywords to look into.

[@stesar2700]

Brilliant I've been working on my own hypothesis for the last 5 years. I can see many similarities and I know exactly what you are looking for, comprising the minimal computational rule. Keep up with the good work guys.

[@neurophilosophers994]

Within each Planck instant there is a set of sub Planck nodes in space time that correspond to your graph and they have to in essence compute themselves into a consistent causal graph in related to the light cone sums entering that sub Planck space as anything within a planck instant is causally conformal to that sub Planck space. This would insinuate that the Planck space time lower bound is causally conformal space time maybe the necessary computation is something like resolving the topology of this sub Planck space? Sounds like Penrose’s Riemann Spheres

[@neurophilosophers994]

Are positive and negative entanglement entropies a kind of equivalence of relations to past possible causal network state evolutions? I called them entanglement reference frames. Could the multi way hypergraph be some set of distributed graphs, the hypergraph set of entanglement networks be decentralized, and causal networks be centralized? In the graph there’s a time direction but in actual space the causal graph is representative of evolution in any angle. So it’s natural to say the causal graph is centralized. The more centralized the more it is like a quantum measurement?

[@IproCoGo]

At 46:45 a failure was discussed, but it seems in the models being developed, the failures are corrected (almost guaranteed to be corrected). Is there an analogy in the macro world where the “correct” answer was not obtained? Is there a phenomenon that we observe that corresponds to a failure that is NOT corrected?

[@rebokfleetfoot]

i find this very refreshing, it is somehow as if the open minded quest for truth, that physics and science used to be, has somehow been revived by the sharing and computational power of this modern era, as opposed to the dogma and exclusivity that has become so prevalent in our academia , thank you!

In your method, there is a first particle so to speak. It is both memory and processor. each particle each moment computes itself through the rules of the universe. second moment it had children, which must be a first principle, emission. all particles every moment/calculation must emit something, and absorb something maybe therefore. since they have now taken on new information, when the next moment happens the input has change and so output has changed. that first calculation happens, the next calculation with all the children particles (photon? since it is outward ripple in space which could define border of universe) but since the children are directly connected to mother particle they are one calculation behind mother but they can now all calculate together simultaneously. each does it's own local assessment and calculation. no particle needs to know anything about any other particle. each does it's own local processing. infinitely distributed. imagine a photon gets passed fire brigade style from particle to particle. C is the time it takes for the photon to get passed from here to there. a reciprocal of processing speed and number of particles in the path. distance this is how there doesn'nt need to be universal clock to coordinate calculations. and there is also no place where all the calculation of the univserse somehow resides. each particle knows itself, that's all. that's all that is needed.

[@KaliFissure]

@@YawnGod and in your other comment you mention how particles are different by qualities. Which is it? Even if they are relative qualities.

[@TheMemesofDestruction]

2:42:45 - Category Theory strikes again! ^.^

[@neurophilosophers994]

If Wolfram is right consciousness is an entangled stream of reference frames in a cohomological game tree

[@silberlinie]

No no. It is a monological stream of detangled games of consciousnes frames.

[@neurophilosophers994]

Imagine building up computational fluid dynamics program from this level of resolution ? Lol may help with basic assumptions of different liquids of different viscosity and density etc properties

[@Suxamethonium11]

NKN bros assemble

ASSEMBLED

[@neurophilosophers994]

Leeman Baird right? For hashgraph ? Is there a solidity plug-in to Wolfram alpha ? Would be cool to see proofs of the Byzantine safe claims
