In 1972, Allen Newell and Herbert A. Simon introduced the General Problem Solver (GPS). This was a groundbreaking step in the history of artificial intelligence and cognitive science. GPS was designed to mimic the way humans think when solving problems, breaking challenges into smaller, more manageable steps and working systematically toward a goal. Beyond its technical brilliance, GPS symbolised a profound idea: that human reasoning itself could be understood, modelled, and improved. This insight continues to inspire both science and personal growth, reminding us that even the most complex difficulties can be approached with structure, patience, and creativity. On a societal level, the spirit of GPS promotes collective problem-solving, encouraging collaboration, clarity, and innovation in addressing the world’s biggest challenges. For personal wellbeing, it offers a hopeful metaphor: no problem is insurmountable when approached with the correct understanding, prayerful reflection, and a steady, step-by-step path toward progress, that derive from a living and active faith in God, “For with God nothing will be impossible” (Luke 1:37).
