A provocative hypothesis emerges from the rapid evolution of technology: the phenomenon we’re witnessing in accelerated technological speciation (and convergence) is not localized but rather a distributed systemic property. We generally think to localize the essence of Artificial Intelligence within distinct nodes or points. This localization serves a practical purpose, enabling us to dissect and […]
Metaphysics is an interesting consideration. I wonder if it is only ever and really a problem of words and language. In some senses, it could only ever be this game of words, semantics, of communication. It’s a problem to which Zen applies the kōan, analogous to the Gödel sentence of a narrative mind. It’s actually […]
The relationship of new technologies with sustainable organisational learning and growth is not itself new. It’s a journey of adaptive sociotechnical integration that is as beneficial to consider in the strategic whole as it is mandatory to define and refine in the instrumental parts. What is new is that non-linear effects are inevitable at scale. […]
AI is a concept. That concept is, or for all intents and purposes soon will be, everywhere. Cultural systems instruct us in the relational semantics of high-dimensional combinatorial depth without once ever having to complicate it in this way. This is because cultural systems do not copy the blueprint or source code of their contexts […]
Software is a strange beast and yet now so ubiquitously endemic to our human world that we’ve all but become desensitised to its presence and its consequences, even as we struggle to manage dependencies, complexity, security and accelerating supercession. What I think we might be misunderstanding is that software is, much like ourselves, a transmission […]
Humanity is, as ever, bound by our endemic fascination and obsession upon details and aesthetic narcosis in the beauty of visual and narrative abstractions. We serially fail to recognise and comprehend that it is the property of recursive self-similarity that is far more significant than any of its transient instances. Beautiful, but profoundly incomplete, we […]
Context: What is incoherence? I am reminded of Kahlil Gibran‘s “a pearl is a temple built by pain around a grain of sand.” Emergent systems of frictive cognitive and partisan communications (or belief) system dissonance are inevitable in ways that serially failing to understand them is not. There is a tricky paradox here. Difficult to […]
Communication communicates. Our apparently natural obsession with linguistic content is the instance of a more general attachment to amplifying whichever signals of belief happen to have percolated to ascendance in the times and places we find ourselves inhabiting. Plausibly: we do not communicate to acquire closure or certainty but to self-validate a human experience that […]
Verification Principle Limitations:Logical positivism asserts that a statement is meaningful only if it can be empirically verified or is analytically true. Critics argue that this verification principle is itself neither empirically verifiable nor analytically true, thus rendering it self-defeating. This critique challenges the positivists’ demarcation criterion for meaningful statements Reductionism and Oversimplification:Critics contend that logical […]
Our experience of information and computational system vulnerability is serially disconcerting yet lies on a logical foundation and abstract continuum of indefinitely-extensible communications network hyper-inflation. There is pretty much always at least one way to recursively assert or map a system back onto itself; such that unexpected or unintended degrees of freedom instance as a […]
Generative AI holograms must be inevitable. More than this: it will eventually be possible, perhaps and almost purely as a software and simultaneous optics engineering enterprise, to have holograms target specific audience members. On a software level, machine intelligence and the long tail of data we all inadvertently cultivate by simply existing will lead to […]
Entropy locking describes the scenario where a system and its control mechanism become intricately intertwined with the entropy they produce, relying on an offset diffusion and complexity displacement for adaptive self-sustainment. The environment is simply another system in the most elementary symmetry or definition; a system/environment coupling or communications bridge resembles two systems, entangled with […]
