Stephen Wolfram recently gave a talk about his efforts to understand the universe around us through computation. He’s the CEO and founder of Wolfram Research, creator of Mathematica, and author of A New Kind of Science. Wolfram recently launches his computational knowledge engine, Wolfram|Alpha (I wrote a post about its launch some time back…).
Here’s the video of his talk, given at a recent TED conference…

I ran across a post by Erick Schonfeld on TechCrunch about Microsoft’s Bing search engine licensing search data from Wolfram|Alpha. Might not be much of a big deal, but I think the Wolfram|Alpha concept is pretty cool…

It actually crunches through what it has access to, and creates new data that isn’t on any website. I first wrote about the launch of Wolfram|Alpha a few months …

In our fast paced world, it seems that every new technology gets overturned every few years or so.

Today is scheduled to be the day for the launch of Wolfram|Alpha – a new computational knowledge engine based upon some of Stephen Wolfram’s new scientific works.
I personally think that Stephen Wolfram’s ideas are fascinating, and could very well lead to new technologies and a greater understanding of what is possible. Wolfram represents one of those scientists that really strives to go beyond the envelope…
I’ve included below a message from Stephen Wolfram about the launch of Wolfram|Alpha, and what he hopes to achieve with it.
