I think that this universality of empirical, mathematical models,
transcending the subjectivism of conceptual models, is another reason
nowthe success of the evolutionary step taken by the "Boyle" revolution of
the 1600's. Before, mathematics was only a language for quantifying a
conceptual model constructed from naive, obvious system properties;
"artificialfreely created "number generators"
Do you mean by "number generator" a mathematical theory or an
intelligence" computer program? Or are you referring to curve fitting?
can produce new, empirical,
mathematical models which then beg for "explanation" by a conceptual
model.
Cleverly used, the number generators will ask specific questions of
nature which she cannot refuse to answer, quantitatively.
How can a non-human ask questions? I think I'm missing something.
