View

This document appears to be a page from an essay or transcript, likely by Stephen Wolfram, discussing the philosophy of Artificial Intelligence, the evolution of human goals amidst automation and potential immortality, and the history of computing (referencing the 1940s, ENIAC, and neural networks). It mentions the movie 'Desk Set' and the computational engine Wolfram|Alpha. The document is stamped 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT', suggesting it is part of a larger congressional investigation file, possibly related to Jeffrey Epstein's connections to the scientific community, though Epstein is not mentioned on this specific page.
