I'm fairly certain Stephen Wolfram will be one of the few intellectuals today that will still be remembered in 50 years.

I already remember him from 25 years ago

he seems to be a good software engineer at least, but what about his science? does it all revolve around re-modelling the universe in his software?

He got famous solving quantum field theory problems

he seems to think his times better spent on software than science it seems. i take it he didnt really crack anything of worth on the physics side then?

To be fair, he's been trying, he's a big fan of cellular automaton.
