Stephen Wolfram is easily one of the greatest scientific minds alive. I am personally thankful for his work. His wise thinking helps me clarify my own thinking.
3:47 From what I understand Wolfram is saying is: All that we know/experience is what there is. If there is computation such as basic mathematics, its apart of our consciousness's imagination, due to OUR interpretation of the universe. (from out point as humans) Well, maybe, a way to step out of this (a very small way) is to study other consciousnesses. Such as animals. Of course there isn't a whole lot to gain studying a goat. But if you can study something with a mental prowess that rivals that of a human. You can get a pretty interesting insight...Take a magpie, with its superior memory. Or even a chimp who has better short-term memory than most human adults. We really question what our own capabilities are... our intellect is top on this world. But there are animals who have better memory, better reactions, better problem solving. Better mental capacities in a lot of ways. Take an octopus who would lay eggs and may wait years just starving to death until the conditions in nature are perfect for the eggs. Risking all harm and death until they, who once hatch leave the mother nothing else to do but die in peace. That mental prowess is rarely witnessed in humans. A goat has a very small brain. It is know as one of the more stupid mammals of this earth as according to us humans. I myself made the connotation, saying little is learned from studying them. Yet a newborn goat is brought into the world with its food source being that of a pasture(after its rearing is finished). A pasture has many different plant species. Many of them are toxic. Some would easily kill a goat if it ate to much. Some even if it ate little. So tell me, how does a newborn goat, or any goat know exactly which plants are toxic and which are not. It knows which plants have more nutrients in general and will favor them. How is it that they know this? Instincts? Okay but put a human in a pasture and tell them this is all their source of food. That human dies quicker than a goat. What is intelligence worth, where instincts and heartiness easily compensate and then some. Goats have won a very very niche branch of this world's game. We humans are stuck on this intelligence path and we are burning in the late game... smh...
I've only watched the fist 7 min and will need to finish it later, but my first thought is that 'stuff' does have relationships to other 'stuff' and math is the language we created to describe relationships.
That’s the thing…the definition for what we think of as “stuff” to make relations is arbitrary. A good example he gave in another talk is the following: we can count sheep…dogs…bushes…we have some kind of notion that these are things we can count… however when we want to talk about gusts of wind…puddles of water…clouds…those things aren’t exactly bounded in a way we can typically think of as things to count, let alone make a relation. This arbitrariness is based on what we think of as being worthy of being counted…whereas say…ants might think that hills of dirt are discretely countable and relatable to other things. That’s where that whole idea of conscious bounded observation comes from. If you are the size of a planet, there will be laws of physics that you are sensitive to like relativity…where bacteria probably have no notion of relativity…let alone gravity.
Fantastic interview, but I have the distinct impression that Lex isn't understanding what Wolfram is saying half the time--like when he says it seems like you should be able to "step outside the Ruliad." This indicates to me that he isn't correctly modeling this idea that "formal definition" and "actuality" are indistinguishable. I.E. If you can imagine something, it means it can be formally defined through some set of rules that construct it, because imagination itself is a form of computation. From there, we simply recognize that all of our experiences of the universe amount to imagination, which is why none of us can say that we aren't living in a simulation. Our reality boils down to the things we can perceive, whether externally or internally. That perception is a feature of the formal system, because the perception itself is a computational process that is embedded within the structure. It need not be "instantiated" anywhere for that relationship to exist. This instant you are experiencing right now could be sitting on a hard drive stored away in some alien's basement, and the next instant could be stored on another hard drive in some other universe. And it wouldn't actually matter if it was stored anywhere, just like both of those hard drives could store portions of the sequence of integers, but that sequence itself exists independent of any particular substrate that models it. It simply exists in the space of possibilities that emerge from formally definable rules--i.e. the Ruliad. We only perceive anything because portions of the Ruliad have the intrinsic property of self-reflectivity--just as some cosmologists have said: We are a way for the universe to reflect upon itself.
That's because there's no answer to it, just discussions that gives different "answers", and those answers are bounded by other things that we do not have an answer for, lol
He may be a brilliant person, but he is not a great "listen", he goes off on so many tangents it's almost impossible to get anything of value from him. Brian Greene is able to kind of "dumb it down" for the average listener in a very effective way, this guy is literally all over the map, I had to give up on his interview about 20 minutes in, very frustrating to listen to. Not all brilliant people are great communicators, which is in and of itself an interesting phenomenon.
I'm probably wrong, but I think there's a much simpler explanation for the invention of math. I think humans started to realize that there were plenty of recurring patterns in nature and also in human interaction. Therefore, humans needed a system of language that defines and records these recurring patterns. Hence, the creation of math. Of course, since it's inception humans have gotten really creative with math and have experimented with it and pushed it to learn all that it can do and it's limits, at the end of the day it started as a system of language to define and record recurring patterns.
You're not wrong. Wolfram is just arguing that those "recurring patterns" that we humans recognize are coarse-grained emergent phenomena from the underlying "molecular" structure of computation itself. All possible rules give rise to a space with an infinite and arbitrarily varied zoo of "recurring patterns" but at the bedrock of it are patterns of computation, the simplest of which is a binary distinction: is, or is not. It's just "it from bit" but with additional insights that clarify how and why this emerges into the particular universe we observe, and how it relates to mathematics.
Seems like they're over thinking it. Math is a language that was invented by people to describe the universe. It doesn't exist in anything but people's thoughts. The universe doesn't use math to do what it does.
Right?!? 2 objects is twice as many as 1 object without any calculation having ever been made. All quantifiable relationships exist in the same way. I never understood the mystery about this.
I think you’re interpreting “exist” differently than is being used in the video. It seems clear to me, that by “exist” Lex isn’t referring to if there is some kind of math molecule, or atom. He is saying that, the rules of math reliably explain natural phenomena, and so math “exists”. He’s asking if, there is something about the universe that required math to seemingly accurately model It, or if it’s possible to have a universe where math can’t explain it at all. The answer given, is basically That it’s possible that, we only think math is accurate because we are viewing the universe from our perspective/time/space.
I don't think they're over thinking it, if anything they gave up on it pretty quickly. They talk about "why math exists" for the first ~five minutes, reforming the question into "are there things that we cant represent formally"? Then for the next 20 minutes they're talking understanding the space of all possible formal systems (metamathematics) which is theory that can help engineer tangible things like automated proof systems. Like how do u pick what path to go down in proof space? Why different areas of math map into the same thing? Can we translate a proof from one math into another? Proof equivalence? So in some sense related to the original question but they're not talking about the og for the majority.
@@enderminer206 I think one answer is at 5:03 (Our) Mathematics is a language suitable to formally describe our particular perception of the world out of an infinite number of interpretations
I suggest to the esteemed interviewer and interviewee to read GODEL ,ESCHER ,BACH The meaning of the + sign stems from the fact that there is an isomorphism between its mathematical meaning and reality as we understand it.
There is the logical aspect and the quantitative aspect. Logic exists because people found that they needed a reliable framework with explanatory and elucidatory power when taking for object the universe as we experience it. Quantities exist because not everything is one, at least on the surface.
If math didn't exist, the universe wouldn't be able to exist. But, if there is a place where math doesn't exist, physical existence itself would be impossible, so, life wouldn't develop, and there would be no conscious observers to see that there is no such thing as math. It might be a bit lazy of me, but if we apply the anthropic principle here, we can allow for a possibility for a reality without math, but in such a plane of existence, life would be impossible.
Math is the beginning and the end of all things. Math is the onl thing that is certain to exist. The real question is how, from the abyssal eternities of uncomputability, universes like us become possible
