Stephen Wolfram answers questions from his viewers about the future of science and technology as part of an unscripted livestream series, also available on YouTube here: https://wolfr.am/youtube-sw-qa

Questions include: What roles do category and type theory play in our understanding and the future of mathematics? - ​​What would be an example of a hierarchy of types in theoretical physics? - Would you ever take a trip on Blue Origin or Space X ? Do you see more for the future of space travel happening sooner or later? - Do you think humans could/will evolve to adapt to space travel? - Say you could teleport to the Moon or Mars instead of travel by spaceship—would you take that travel option? - Space is a very hazardous place compared to Earth (radioactivity etc.). Chips in space would need to be very shielded and hence very expensive, I believe. - Why don't we use shielded nuclear waste to heat buildings (like in the basement attached to the HVAC system, in secure buildings)? - Closer to Earth, what do you see as the short-to-medium term future for inhabited orbital space stations and beyond that, in the longer-term future? - From genetic issues to space travel damage, do you think the main advances and solutions will come more from preventing or from repairing or an equal mix of both? - How would you think about AI-controlled humans if bionic brains become mainstream?
