Stephen Wolfram on Human Machine Communication - Dictionary of Arguments
Brockman I 275 Human Machine Communication/Wolfram: How is a transaction with a machine different from a transaction with a human? The main answer is that there’s a visual display. It asks you something, and you press a button, and you can see the result immediately. For example, in Wolfram Alpha, when it’s used inside Sin, if there’s a short answer, Sin will tell you the short answer. But what most people want is the visual display, showing the infographic of this or that. This is a nonhuman form of communication that turns out to be richer than the traditional spoken, or typed, human communication. Cf. >Formalization/Wolfram, >Turing Test/Wolfram, >Artificial Intelligence/Wolfram. Brockman I 280 Just as natural language gave us civilization, knowledge-based programming will give us - what? One bad answer is that it will give us the civilization of the Als. That’s what we don’t want to happen, because the Als will do a great job communicating with one another and we’ll be left out of it, because there’s no intermediate language, no interface with our brains. >Software/Wolfram.
