Could I understand the effort this way? In general any Turing complete set of computational rules should be able to generate any computable expression and hopefully physics can be expressed with computable expressions (at least if it is at all comprehensible to humans). So you are looking for a particular set of rules (instead of
the English language and math symbols, e.g.) that meet certain kind of aesthetics. Do you expect only valid physics to be expressed or is the research on the kind of restriction that will lead to only valid physics being expressed?
- AgentME 7y agoFrom the main article, it looks like they believe that relativity and quantum mechanics are both things that directly emerge as necessary consequences from the structure, not that those are arbitrary results that may be computed inside. It wouldn't be very interesting in the latter case; there's no shortage of Turing tarpits.
