"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

ONLY FOUR NUCLEOTIDES BUILD DNA. "DNA is a long molecule, like a chain, where the links of the chain are pieces called nucleotides (sometimes also called 'bases'). There are four different types of nucleotides in DNA which we'll call 'A', 'G', 'C' and 'T'. These four are all that's necessary to write a code that describes our entire body plan. Sounds too simple? Keep in mind that Morse Code uses only four symbols (dot, dash, short spaces and long spaces), and you could spell out entire encyclopedias of knowledge with that simple code!" https://lnkd.in/d_a7EW4 View in LinkedIn

"TEN MILLION COMPOUNDS are known, and of these, 9 million are carbon based. Many were synthesized after Wohler proved that chemical like urea could be synthesized (1828), destroying the Vital Force theory that supposed that organic compounds must come from pre-existing life." The number of possible chemicals are greater than the number of grains of sand (7.5 x 10(18)). https://lnkd.in/dcWgC9X View in LinkedIn

“118 ELEMENTS in the periodic table compose the planets and all the universes. Only 94 are found naturally and of these, 7 are novel gases that only form compounds with difficulty. This is the entire list of the fundamental known elements. The remaining 87 are the building blocks that combine to make compounds. Biological compounds, mainly carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen with a little phosphorus and sulfur compose 99% of living structures.” http://www.ptable.com/ View in LinkedIn

"SIMPLICITY, it would seem, is a simple matter." (Raymond D. Havens, 1953). https://lnkd.in/d_4wdkS View in LinkedIn

OCCAM'S RAZOR. "Einstein proclaimed that we could discover true laws of nature by seeking those with the simplest mathematical formulation." https://lnkd.in/dP8cmJN View in LinkedIn
