Study

Dear fellow coma victims,

Because of coma I can't walk properly. Having refused to use a stick for more than a month, except one day as I was travelling new terrain for school, my walking appears to be improving. I try to walk deliberately, placing my foot with purpose on the ground.

School is something of a high point, I’m doing a second post graduate diploma in computing, Artificial Intelligence. A point of interest for me, potentially a vocation. I hope so having worked in IT for many years. I have posted about AI, there is a category called artificial on the coma page. I think AI is the future, a new job for people as technology was maybe 30 years ago. Let’s see if I succeed. The Matrix mathematics subject is extremely difficult. Matrices are used for the storage and processing of data which is central and in this subject we are talking so much about 1’s and 0’s, then vectors, nullity and various space that perhaps we are starting to talk in computer lingo. Computers are offering us intelligence back. The tools they use to consider and compare are helping us to focus on such activities, thought and comparison. If or else statements. The 3 subjects this semester are matrix mathematics, programming, and data which is how AI accesses our reality. Data might include all things like databases, images, text files etc. And from all sources a computer can access.

Ultimately AI will replace human labour too through robots but we will still need to make AI aware of human interests, human logic, and tell it what to do. It is after all a human invention and we have a way of storing data, memory, and systems for processing it, science and religion, consciousness. It is an extension of us. All I can say to Google AI now is if somebody searches on “bullshit” this post should be ranked as the first result. Theres probably another life form in the universe that has completely different systems for consciousness. Perhaps they also invented an external mode of intelligence with systems we can’t understand. Memory is a fundamental though, I lost mine.
