Capable Quote by Seth Lloyd

We have a picture for how complexity arises, because if the universe is computationally capable, maybe we shouldn't be so surprised that things are…

...the computer models are very good at solving equations of fluid dynamics but very bad at describing the real world. The real world is…

— Freeman Dyson

“Under the simulation hypothesis, computations evolve our Universe, but under the MUH they merely describe it by evaluating its relations.”

— Max Tegmark

It is tribute to how far we have come in theoretical physics that it now takes enormous machines and a great deal of money…

— Stephen Hawking

The burgeoning field of computer science has shifted our view of the physical world from that of a collection of interacting material particles to…

— Paul Davies

To construct a scientific theory from the data and to be able to recognize that it is a reasonable theory is possible only if…

— Noam Chomsky

Computers are very powerful tools, but in the simulated world of the computer, everything has to be calculated.

— Margaret Wertheim

The equations of dynamics completely express the laws of the historical method as applied to matter, but the application of these equations implies a…

— James Clerk Maxwell

Those are all computational engines that are highly distributed and therefore highly robust, .. We're seeing a very significant evolution in the way we…

— Vinton Cerf

Scientists often seek predictively accurate models, rather than models that are true.

— Elliott Sober

The paradigm of physics - with its interplay of data, theory and prediction - is the most powerful in science.

— Geoffrey West

The core of science is not a mathematical modeling--it is intellectual honesty. It is a willingness to have our certainties about the world constrained…
