Has the second law of thermodynamics finally been proven?
The second law of thermodynamics has been shrouded in mystery for a century and a half. Now, after building on the recent breakthroughs in the foundations of physics, Stephen Wolfram has finally provided a resolution to the mystery.
Stephen Wolfram is a computer scientist, physicist, and businessman. He is the founder and CEO of Wolfram Research and the creator of Mathematica, Wolfram Alpha, and Wolfram Language. Over the course of 4 decades, he has pioneered the development & application of computational thinking. He has been responsible for many discoveries, inventions & innovations in science, technology, and business.
In this in-depth interview, he shares his findings, shines a light on some of the most misunderstood concepts in physics, and answers some of our most pressing questions about the nature of the second law, entropy, and the dark side of the universe.
