Stephen Wolfram's ruliad seems to be some sort of concurrent topological computations.

There are some beautiful pictures.

Fascinating, so would this mean an LLM is an approximator of a certain proportion of a 'ruliad'? Apologies for using GPT here, but it's a bit beyond my math to make a statement like that without reaching for my sidekick..."in a broad sense, one could conceptualize a Large Language Model (LLM) as an approximator of a specific, limited subsection of the ruliad" so I guess so, ish?

Considering the ruliad consists of all possible rules and their applications, you could say that. But it's oh so much more!
