# Edited 2021-11-15 - 11:11 # [[Epistemic status]] #shower-thought # Parsing the Universe [[Stephen Wolfram]] talks a lot about "parsing" the Universe, it's kind of funny, we clearly see his computer science background tainting his vocabulary, I mean, a mathematician for example would probably not use this term, but, anyway, it's probably adequate. Parsing the Universe means putting the Universe in a computer? In a structured format or that does not matter? I hardly see how it is possible to "fit" the Universe in a computer. On other hand we can compress it, using [[deep learning]] for example.
