  2. An important and powerful episode. Iā€™m very happy I listened to this today on 9/11, and will carry forward the many lessons shared. Firefighters are the bulldog-mastiffs of the human species: brave and kind and full of love. Thank you Lex and Niels for taking the time to record your conversation.

  3. You constantly inspire me Lex! Anyone who writes down negatively towards this video is a waste of time. Thank you for sharing your journey. Iā€™m a soft lazy person. I watch you daily for motivation and strength.

  5. Talk: 00:00 - 10:30 introduction & motivation for making the question answering system (Wolfram Alpha) 10:30 - 26:15 ultra cool Wolfram language demos 26:15 what is in principle possible to do with computation? 44:45 how do we make use of all of that stuff Questions: 58:55 knowledge representation within Wolfram Alpha, how do different domains interact? 1:03:45 who or what are your key influences? 1:09:20 wolfram language for describing purpose/philosophy? 1:15:54 do molecules compute? what do you mean by that? 1:21:00 elaborate on searching the computing spaces? 1:24:00 how should we teach kids about AI/computational thinking? (great answer! IMHO) 1:38:20 how far away are we from learning machines to explain stuff to humans? 1:41:10 follow up question: personalized learning, can we do it? 1:44:10 Newton seashell quote and what would Franz Liszt say :) 1:52:10 the evolution of purposes Thanks for the amazing series!
