• Making Wolfram Tech Available as a Foundation Tool for LLM Systems

  LLMs don’t—and can’t—do everything. What they do is very impressive—and useful. It’s broad. And in many ways it’s human-like. But it’s not precise. And in the end it’s not about deep computation. So how can we supplement LLM foundation models? We need a foundation tool: a tool that’s broad and general and does what LLMs themselves don’t: provides deep computation and precise knowledge. And, conveniently enough, that’s exactly what I’ve been building for the past 40 years! My goal with Wolfram Language has always been to make everything we can about the world computable. To bring together in a coherent and unified way the algorithms, the methods and the data to do precise computation whenever it’s possible. It’s been a huge undertaking, but I think it’s fair to say it’s been a hugely successful one—that’s fueled countless discoveries and inventions (including my own) across a remarkable range of areas of science, technology and beyond.

• Non-Cooperative Games with Uncertainty

  This paper introduces a framework for finite non-cooperative games where each player faces a globally uncertain parameter with no common prior. Every player chooses both a mixed strategy and projects an emergent subjective prior to the uncertain parameters. We define an “Extended Equilibrium” by requiring that no player can improve her expected utility via a […]

• Most-Viewed People on Wikipedia in 2025 How Catalyst Events Imprint Social Memory

  On January 15, 2026, Wikipedia turned 25, and that birthday demonstrates a simple, radical fact: a vast, volunteer-built reference work that stays free to read has become a foundational record of human knowledge and an infrastructure for how the internet answers questions, quietly propping up organic learning, search engines, voice assistants and generative AI. In […]

• Introduction to Quantum Computing: Part 1

  This book provides a concise and practical introduction to quantum computing, emphasizing an interactive, hands-on approach. It introduces and explores the essential concepts, principles and foundational quantum algorithms through guided modeling and simulation exercises. Each topic is developed computationally, allowing readers to build both intuition and technical proficiency by directly engaging with the computational mechanics of quantum systems. The approach taken here is computation first, meaning that understanding arises through the act of calculation, echoing David Mermin’s well-known slogan, “shut up and calculate.”

• Finally… a Wolfram U Course for Everyone on Partial Differential Equations!

  Today, I am happy to announce a free interactive course, Introduction to Partial Differential Equations, that will help students all over the world master this important subject. This course introduces partial differential equations (PDEs) from scratch and covers the most important types and their solution methods. It covers linear and nonlinear first-order PDEs; important cases […]

• Essentials of Complex Analysis: A Free, Interactive eTextbook from Wolfram Media

  Whether you’re a student in mathematics, engineering or scientific fields, you’re likely to encounter complex analysis—the study of complex numbers and complex functions. For mathematicians, complex analysis is a beautiful subject that provides powerful connections between apparently distant areas of mathematics. For physicists, complex numbers are part of the language of nature: in order to […]

• Two New Wolfram Book Series to Advance Computational Work

  Months of groundwork came to fruition for Wolfram Media in 2025 with two new series taking off in earnest. As we look back on the year, we wanted to take the chance to highlight what we’ve been up to over the past 12 months and let you know what’s coming next. You might even want […]

• Global 3D Depth-Magnitude Distribution of 2025 Earthquakes

  The majority of earthquakes around the world can be found along continental plate boundaries, either due to divergent plate boundaries where new oceanic crust is generated, or at convergent plate boundaries where collisions and subduction can occur. Earthquakes can also be caused by the motion of magma below the surface as it moves, melts, and […]
