INTERACTIVE TEXTS. "The sensual body finds itself living amidst an expansive set of technologies. In this ever-evolving computational world we encounter texts of varying forms and functionalities – visual, sonic, and code-related. Text may also take physical and/or environmental form." https://lnkd.in/dCVHq5S View in LinkedIn

"BINARY BITS of 1’s and 0’s are just like the atoms that make up every physical object in the universe. If it were possible to manipulate and arrange atoms, it would be theoretically possible to re-create any physical object." https://lnkd.in/d4FtxBC View in LinkedIn

"THE INTERNET. It’s a terrific resource, one of the greatest human inventions in history. It’s a global network, a decentralized brain like no other ever created. It’s got memory in cloud storage, reasoning (of a sort) in cloud-based processing power, and lightning fast synapses thanks to fiber-optic bundles that criss-cross the globe." https://lnkd.in/da9p2nE View in LinkedIn

HELLO WORLD. "“dlroW olleH” (“Hello World” backwards). The above programming code was created by an artificial intelligence program, designed to write programs with self-modifying and self-improving code. The program created the above result in 60 seconds. The above program accepts user input and prints the reversed text." https://lnkd.in/d4FtxBC View in LinkedIn

RECURSIVE SELF-IMPROVEMENT. "The Pentagon is particularly interested in this game. Through DARPA, its hoping to develop a computer that can teach itself. Ultimately, it wants to create machines that are able to perform a number of complex tasks, like unsupervised learning, vision, planning, and statistical model selection." https://lnkd.in/dp3ZKye View in LinkedIn

SEEKING SOLUTIONS. "Genetic algorithms are programmatic implementations of survival of the fittest. They can also be classified as artificially intelligent search algorithms, with regard to how they search an immense problem space for a specific solution." (In biological language, niche adaptation). https://lnkd.in/dk8PgiX View in LinkedIn

THE TEST. “Humans have already demonstrated the ability to create some seriously secure encryption algorithms, but that wasn’t enough for the Google Brain team. So, instead of relying on those soft, mushy human brains, Google engineers decided to let a trio of AI minds put their own encryption skills to the test.” https://lnkd.in/dGFg6bm View in LinkedIn

THE EXPERIMENT. "This is the idea behind the AI-Programmer experiment. The goal is to ultimately create a computer program that can write its own computer programs to solve specific computational problems. While the capability of a computer deciding what type of program to write is beyond our current means, we can still have a computer generate programs to solve very specific tasks, such as outputting the text, "Hello World"." https://lnkd.in/dUfSxf4 View in LinkedIn

DEEP MIND. "Google’s New Computer With Human-Like Learning Abilities Will Program Itself. The new hybrid device might not need humans at all. Neural networks -- which will enable the computer to invent programs for situations that it has not seen before -- will make up half of the computer's architecture. Experts at the firm hope this will equip the machine with the means to create like a human." https://lnkd.in/d2gu_tW View in LinkedIn

MINIMAL. "Kory Becker did some interesting work with Brainfuck a joke programming language that is turing complete with only 8 characters. He created a genetic algorithm that evolved software given only the input and expected output." https://lnkd.in/dKpewFv View in LinkedIn
