  • Nostradamus the 21St Century and Beyond
    Nostradamus The 21st Century and Beyond The present — which is still unfolding, is cloudy because we’re too close to that forest to see the trees as they emerge from the mists of time. But the thing all of us are most intrigued by is this: What does Nostradamus tell us about our own future —which, after all, is where we’ll be spending all our time? Is it to be all doom and gloom as some read into Nostradamus? Or were those frightening scenarios merely reflections of the prophet’s own gloomy character and the superstitious, medieval mind-set that produced him? Page 1 of 31 Nostradamus The 21st Century and Beyond Any discussion of Nostradamus’ predictions about our future has to deal to some extent with what appear to be doomsday forecasts and the coming of the third Antichrist. That is too much a part of the Nostradamus saga. But only a part. He also had a lot to say about the glorious, golden days that lie before us. However, the one prediction that preoccupies most Nostradamus scholars to the point of obsession — and chills some to the bone — is the one he recorded in CX Q72 which reads: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ “In the year 1999, and seven months from the sky will come the great King of Terror. He will bring to life the great King of the Mongols. Before and after war reigns happily.” ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most experts have interpreted this famous quatrain as the prophet’s vision of an Antichrist. If Napoleon was the first and Hitler the second, the big questions obviously are: Who’s the third Antichrist? Is he/she/it among us today? Or still decades, even centuries, in the future? According to Christian legend, the Antichrist is a person or power that will come to corrupt the world but will then be conquered by Christ’s Second Coming.

  • The MIT Press Frankfurt Book Fair 2017 TRADE Neuroscience | Artificial Intelligence
    The MIT Press Frankfurt Book Fair 2017 TRADE neuroscience | artificial intelligence The Deep Learning Revolution Terrence J. Sejnowski The deep learning revolution has brought us driverless cars, the greatly improved Google Translate, fluent conversations with Siri and Alexa, and enormus profits from automated trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Deep learning networks can play poker better than profes- sional poker players and defeat a world champion at Go. In this book, Terry Sejnowski explains how deep learning went from being an arcane academic field to a disruptive technology in the information economy. Sejnowski played an important role in the founding of deep learn- ing, as one of a small group of researchers in the 1980s who challenged the prevailing logic-and-symbol based version of AI. The new version of AI Sejnowski and others developed, which became deep learning, is fueled instead by data. Deep networks learn from data in the same way that babies experience the world, starting with fresh eyes and gradually acquiring the skills needed to navigate novel environments. Learning algorithms extract information from raw data; information can be used to create knowledge; knowledge underlies understanding; understanding leads to wisdom. Someday a driverless car will know the road better than you do and drive with more skill; a deep learning network will diagnose your illness; a personal cognitive assistant will augment your puny hu- man brain. It took nature many millions of years to evolve human intel- ligence; AI is on a trajectory measured in decades. Sejnowski prepares us for a deep learning future. How deep learning—from Google Translate to driverless Terrence J.

  • Prophecy: the Search for Certainty
    Prophecy: The Search for Certainty The idea that some people have a gift of prophecy fills a basic human need, thus its enduring popularity despite a lack of evidence of validity. Charles J. Cazeau Tomorrow morning thousands—or, more likely, millions—of people across the country will open their morning newspaper, turn to the horoscope page, and read something like this: Someone you will meet at a party may help you get the financial backing you need. A new romance could blossom into a lasting relationship. Trust your instincts in a confrontation with a neighbor. It would seem that whoever wrote those words is able to glimpse into the future and tell each of us something about our own personal fate. Are there people who can really do this? There are probably few things more tantalizing to the human mind than the thought of being able to pierce the veil that shrouds future events. Think of the power. To know what will happen to other people, coming events, and the course of history. One possessed of such ability would be almost guaranteed instant wealth by foreseeing and acting upon stock prices, results of major sports events, and lotteries. On the other hand, the prophet involved may be without materialistic leanings (as many claim). Perhaps merely the fame and reputation is enough. To command awe and admiration as a seer from less gifted individuals is certainly heady stuff. There are many people in modern society who claim to have this gift of prophecy. There are also armies of followers of past prophets who see things fulfilled, thus offering proof of the veracity of prophecy.
