Talk:Stephen Wolfram

message: Hello. I have just tagged this article , because it was very heavily edited by a (highly likely paid) sockfarm that is focused almost exclusively on promoting Stephen Wolfram and his work. Please see this COIN thread (perma) and the related SPI for more information. The article will need a thorough review before the tag is removed. Thanks and best, Blablubbs|talk 15:12, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

message: In an interview with Lex Fridman, in the part 2:45:25 of the video, Wolfram mentioned the danger of giving one AI to decide on everything about society and than in 2:48:42 he said that a "market system based on choice is more liberating than a totalitarian system".
Of course its not a direct indication that he particularly supports free market economy or more specifically free market capitalism, but its possible to state that he supports a market-based system over a centralised system because of the choices it generates under "Political views" title.

replies: text: I don't think "centralised" and "totalitarian" are anywhere near synonyms. We shouldn't interpret primary sources like this. Guettarda (talk) 15:20, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: If his political views are not clear in sources, then it shouldn't be included. The context in which the comments were made is also in a hypothetical scenario and not a crisp articulation of his political views. Montesquieu1789 (talk) 00:23, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

message: As loathe as I am to lend credibility to someone sockfarming WP, a possible source for the citation needed around his first publishing at 15 would be a link to the actual paper he published that includes the date and the name of the journal: https://content.wolfram.com/uploads/sites/34/2020/07/hadronic-electrons.pdf 172.92.181.142 (talk) 13:48, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Or perhaps, same paper, but from somewhere that isn't his own website: https://www.publish.csiro.au/ph/pdf/PH750479 172.92.181.142 (talk) 13:51, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
