To take all areas of systematic knowledge and make them computable. But it was only after some discoveries I made in basic science in the 1990s that I felt emboldened to actually try building what’s now Wolfram|Alpha. Over the years, I built some powerful tools-most importantly the core of what’s now Wolfram Language. I first imagined creating something like it more than 47 years ago, when I was about 12 years old. And we’ve been able to keep it private and independent, and its main website has stayed free and without external advertising.įor me personally, the vision that became Wolfram|Alpha has a very long history. Oh, and by now, a significant fraction of a billion people have used it. It’s found its way into more and more of the fabric of the computational world, both realizing some of the long-term aspirations of artificial intelligence, and defining new directions for what one can expect to be possible. It was a unique and surprising achievement when it first arrived, and over its first decade it’s become ever stronger and more unique. At some level, Wolfram|Alpha is a never-ending project. Today it’s 10 years since we launched Wolfram|Alpha.
