Even in the age of AI, some problems are just too difficult for computers

Summary

This article by Jie Wang, writing for Big Think, makes the following points:

• Computing is often about decisions requiring yes or no answers—such as whether a medical specimen contains a disease indicator.
• Not every problem can be solved; for example, the domino problem, a variation of the tiling problem formulated by Hao Wang.
• Many problems can be solved using polynomial-time algorithms, but not all.
