Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Nobody expected this--not even its creators: ChatGPT has burst onto the scene as an AI capable of writing at a convincingly human level. But how does it really work? What's going on inside its "AI mind"? In this short book, prominent scientist and computation pioneer Stephen Wolfram provides a readable and engaging explanation that draws on his decades-long unique experience at the frontiers of science and technology. Find out how the success of ChatGPT brings together the latest neural net technology with foundational questions about language and human thought posed by Aristotle more than two thousand years ago.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Total eclipses of the Sun are rare and dramatic-and on April 8, 2024, one will cross the US. But when exactly will it happen? In this short but richly illustrated book, prominent scientist and computation pioneer Stephen Wolfram tells the triumphant and hard-won story-spanning more than two thousand years-of how science, mathematics and computation have brought us to the point where we can now predict the time of the eclipse to within one second. Learn how the problem of eclipses brought us some of the earliest exact science, the first known computer, contributions from many of the all-time greats of mathematics and physics, and critical technology for the space program. See how all this provides a clear, modern understanding of a phenomenon that has surprised and amazed throughout human history.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Mathematica and the Wolfram Language provide an integrated environment for sophisticated programming, making them the ideal tools for calculus, data visualization, machine learning, and more. But how about using Wolfram as the linchpin for organizing data? In this book, Professor Seth J. Chandler, an award-winning, 30-year user of the Wolfram Language, guides intermediate users from simple cases to data in the wild and shows how each can be fed into the full range of Wolfram Language functionality. It's both a conceptual and practical approach filled with annotated examples. Want to know more about associations or the organization and presentation of datasets? This book shows how it's done. Want to organize or reduce data in the Wolfram Language similarly to the way one might use SQL, pandas in Python, or dplyr in R's tidyverse? This book shows how to simplify data processing and go beyond what is possible with other tools using the Query function. It also explores how to import information from the places real-world data is most likely to be found: CSV, Excel, or JSON files. Use Query both as a tutorial and as a reference. Read it cover-to-cover doing the exercises or dip in to look up specific data-wrangling tasks. Augmenting the underlying power of the Wolfram Language with the techniques taught in this book puts you at the forefront of innovative data analysis. The Wolfram Language provides an integrated environment for sophisticated programming,making it the ideal tool for calculus, data visualization, machine learning, and more.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. When Stephen Wolfram's groundbreaking A New Kind of Science was published in 2002, its exploration and analysis of the computational universe of simple programs launched a scientific revolution. Twenty years later, the ideas and results of the book have found countless applications across science, technology and elsewhere - including the recent Wolfram Physics Project and its breakthrough in fundamental physics - and the book has indeed spawned what can only be described as a new kind of science. Here Wolfram reflects on the first two decades of A New Kind of Science, discussing some of the major implications that have emerged so far, as well as his far-reaching new thinking building on the conceptual framework developed in A New Kind of Science. Written in Wolfram's popular and accessible style, the book provides a window into one of the most vibrant intellectual developments of our time.Recognizing A New Kind of Science's significance not only in science but also in the arts, the bo Here Wolfram reflects on the first two decades of A New Kind of Science, discussing some of the major implications that have emerged so far, as well as his far-reaching new thinking building on the conceptual framework developed in A New Kind of Science.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Ever since it was first formulated a century and a half ago, the Second Law of thermodynamics (or 'law of entropy increase') has had an air of mystery about it. Why is it true? Is it even always true? In this book, Stephen Wolfram builds on recent breakthroughs in the foundations of physics to finally provide a resolution to the mystery of the Second Law, elegantly showing how it emerges as a general feature of processes that can be described computationally and their interplay with our computational characteristics as observers. For Wolfram, the effort to understand the Second Law has been a 50-year quest, beginning when he was 12 years old. In the book, Wolfram tells the story of this quest as well as traces the whole remarkable history of the Second Law. Written with great clarity and richly illustrated with both striking modern diagrams and extensive historical material, the book will be of interest to anyone who wants to understand the foundations and origins of one of the most i Ever since it was first formulated a century and a half ago, the Second Law of thermodynamics (or "law of entropy increase") has had an air of mystery about it.
