Stephen Wolfram: The Computational Future

Stephen Wolfram is legendary in the field of computational science. Crazy theoretical concepts that he has turned into a range of sophisticated software tools (Mathematica). You many have heard of his search engine WolframAlpha.
This engine provides answers based on natural language sentences. Type a question or data points and it quickly interprets what you want to know, searches the interweb for data that might answer it, then translates that data into an answer. What’s important is that it doesn’t link to web pages that exist and contain the solution. It actually creates answers, not just find them.
This is pretty cool too:
