Explaining AI

a human perspective — Overview AI has always been a bit of a mystery subject. Even data scientists and programmers who build AIs might find it difficult to see the forest behind the trees. Like the rest of us, they tend to think of AI as a computer. And it’s a bit like describing, say…

“Imagine, …”

the mystery of rational understanding — As the machine learning AI grows more and more advanced, we begin to see its true value: It helps us understand ourselves. How we think — and, perhaps, even more importantly, how we don’t. The duality of human nature has been recognized for thousands of years. Good vs evil, wicked…

Is it Square or Round?

the secret to see the whole Truth, the way it really is — So which one is it? The answer is, paradoxically, “It’s both and it’s neither”. The square and the circle is how the whole truth — a 3-D shape in this case — appears from two different angles.

Rationalizing Plato’s Cave

“Even though it always holds true, people could never comprehend the Lógos, not even after they’ve been told about it.” “Failure to understand it is the root of all evil.” (Heraclitus, 450 BC) “In it was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light in the…

"Seek, and you shall find."

"Seek, and you shall find." Life might seem absurd, and unfair, and overwhelming, but there is a reason for our suffering. It's the price we pay for our "victim" mentality. For trying to live our lives as the "poor little me," in Allan Watt's words, shunning our personal responsibility for everyone else on the planet. Not just for ourselves, or our "loved" ones, but for everyone and everything. We must reach for the stars. That's the only way for us, humans, to make sense of it all, to live happily and at peace with ourselves.

The Woman Who Cured Her … Autism?

… in mere months, using simple exercises she herself devised — This is an old story. Barbara Arrowsmith-Young describes the condition she struggled with throughout her childhood and in her 20s as a “learning disability”. And sure enough, her condition fits that definition — which was, incidentally, the only definition available back then. Born in 1951 and she cured herself in…

How You Change the World

(in just three simple steps) — 1. Get yourself a blank sheet of paper. 2. Write or print on it the words below: I am in God’s image and I am personally responsible before everyone, for everyone and everything. 3. Hang it in your bedroom and read it twice a day, before bedtime and in the morning. That’s all! (the magic will take it from there) REFERENCES [1] King James Bible. (2008), Oxford University Press. (Original work published 1769) [2] Dostoevsky, F. (2003) “The Brothers Karamazov”, New York: Bantam Dell [3] Antoniu, R. (2016) “How to Stop Cheating and Get Lean for Good”, [Online].

Software Development Explained

Why it is hard to learn and why we keep writing “buggy” code — “Well, they didn’t have an algorithm, just a bunch of code. Very few programmers think in terms of algorithms. — Leslie Lamport, in an interview with Quanta Magazine Recently I have been working low-skilled jobs, for reasons, and one thing that struck me as odd is how they train you…
