Writing
A lot of my thinking is downstream from Nassim Taleb. I write monthly, mostly about optimization, combinatorial search, and the architecture of intelligent systems. Occasionally about chess, compression, and what it means for a machine to understand something.
"I have argued that our technology can make us more human by freeing us to be more creative, but there is more to being human than creativity. We have other qualities the machines cannot match. They have instructions while we have purpose. Machines cannot dream, not even in sleep mode. Humans can, and we will need our intelligent machines in order to turn our grandest dreams into reality. If we stop dreaming big dreams, if we stop looking for a greater purpose, then we may as well be machines ourselves."
