Lines on graph are blue (sqrt(x)), yellow(x), red(x^2), green(sin((pi)x/2))), purple(sqrt(1-(x-1)), light blue(1/8(63x^5)-70x^3+15x), periwinkle(x+(1/10)sin(10πx)), and dark orange (sqrt(2/π)sin(x)/sqrt(x)) representing different formulas. Time begins at 0 at increases to 1.1, in which black dots on the curves correspond to the amount it takes to reach the bottom of the curve.

"Exciting news! ChatGPT now has a Wolfram plugin! Access Wolfram|Alpha and Wolfram Language to enhance your conversations and expand your knowledge like never before. #Wolfram #ChatGPT #AI" -[Written by ChatGPT]
Quote Tweet
We are adding support for plugins to ChatGPT — extensions which integrate it with third-party services or allow it to access up-to-date information. We’re starting small to study real-world use, impact, and safety and alignment challenges: openai.com/blog/chatgpt-p

This colossal 13-ton bridge, an epic rolling square, won the prestigious Bridges Design Award 2023! Meet mathematician Stan Wagon, the mastermind behind the rolling square as he dives into the math that made it possible. wolfr.am/1dQBajgPW
Gif of rolling square bridge, showing that it can be hand cranked to move. Three figures, seemingly made out of clay, are present. One crosses the bridge, another cranks the bridge, and another is waiting to cross the bridge. After the first figure crosses the bridge, the second figure cranks the bridge. Once the bridge is cranked, a fourth figure passes under the bridge on a ship. While this is happening, the third figure is waiting to cross the bridge.

How did the mathematical formulation of the second law lead to introducing the concept of entropy? Learn about this work of Rudolf Clausius from Stephen Wolfram's piece about the history of the second law of thermodynamics: wolfr.am/1chiLtHk2
The image consists of two pieces from an old scientific article in the English language. The first piece highlights the statement - "The algebraic sum of all the transformations occurring in a circular process can only be positive, or, as an extreme case, equal to nothing.". There are two equations in bold. The first equation is the integration of the quantity "dQ/T" equal to zero for the reversible circular process. The second equation is the integration of "dQ/T" greater than or equal to zero for every circular process. The second piece highlights two points: "1. The energy of the universe is constant", and "2. The entropy of the universe tends to a maximum".

Happy World Quantum Day! What better way to celebrate this day than by immersing yourself in this article on quantum computing? Presenting, an innovative readout scheme for superconducting qubits that impressively improves qubit-state assignment fidelity: wolfr.am/1cFN6Y5Dy
The image has two plots labeled "a" and "b". Plot "a" is "Primary Tone Readout Response" with y-axis label "In-phase (arb. unit)" and x-axis label "Quadrature (arb. unit)". Plot "a" has many scattered points in red with the highest density of points centered around 0 and they are labeled as "|0>". There is another set of scattered points in blue with the highest density of points centered around -3 and they are labeled as "|0>bar". The red set of points is above the blue set, separated by a crooked line. Plot "b" is "Two-state F_a =99.5%, Ideal F_{id}=99.95%" with the vertical axis label "Probability" and horizontal axis label "Integrated Signal (sigma)". The plot has four different color points: red for "P(0|0)=99.9%", blue for "P(0bar|0bar)=99.1%", green for "P(0|0bar)=0.92%" and yellow for "P(0bar|0)=0.09%". The red and blue points are fitted to an inverted parabola-shaped curve with peaks around 0.01. The green points are also fitted to a parabolic curve with a peak around 0.0001.

Discover ergodicity and global behavior of equilibrium computationally in cellular automata as the system degrades to randomness from Stephen Wolfram's piece about the computational foundations for the second law of thermodynamics: wolfr.am/1cp5KCws7
The image consists of two state transition graphs. The left graph shows a transition between states of size 4. The big cycle consists of eight different states. Four other initial states are at the four corners and merge into the big cycle after the first transition. Two states make a transition among themselves in a loop. Another state after the first transition undergoes into loop transition. The right graph shows a transition between states of size 8. There is one big cycle with states represented as points. There are eight branches connected to the big cycle. There is another small tree graph with four branches. One two-state transition and two one-state transition graphs are also present.
