The Urgent Need for Computational Thinking in an AI World with Conrad Wolfram


Listen Later

In this episode of Pulse, host Aldo de Pape sits down with Conrad Wolfram, Mathematician, Technologist and Author of 'The Math(s) Fix: An Education Blueprint for the AI Age'. 

Aldo and Conrad explore how AI is transforming education, computation, and society itself. From the failures of traditional maths curricula to the urgent need for “computational literacy,” Conrad explains why schools are still preparing students for a world that no longer exists.

The conversation dives into AI hype cycles, Wolfram Alpha’s early role in artificial intelligence, human versus machine thinking, and why adapting education may be the most important challenge of our time.
