Sofia Smallstorm checks in with a number of threads from her current intuitive research. To hear the full show, plus many other presentations, join us at: https://patreon.com/offplanetmedia Sofia’s website: http://sofiasmallstorm.com Avatar Products: http://www.avatarproducts.com/ We discuss: The Perceptron phenomena, ENIAC, the first multi-purpose computer developed at the University of Pennsylvania; first the fictional EMERAC computer in the Spencer Tracy/Katherine Hepburn 1957 film, “Desk Set”; how mechanized human thought was being pursued by Frank Rosenblatt (1957) at Cornell University, funded by the US NAVY; we go into the Kasparov Vs. IBM “Deep Blue” chess match and the 2016 Google AlphaGo GO match with master player, Lee Sedol. How it may be that humans are now being “programmed” by adaptive software updates via computers and mobile devices; “Deep Learning”, A.I., neural networks, and heuristics lead us into questions about computers and perception, as well as the primacy of consciousness and abstract thought. Interwoven, Sofia talks about her findings on SLEEP, and some methods to enhance reparative rest; the magnetic body, and simple products and techniques to keep us healthy and aware. Hour two, for our memebers: turns to analysis of the California D.E.W. wildfires, the agendas behind the “big burn”, strange patterns and events; we revisit hour 1 for an analysis of A.I. and why humans can and will prevail. Resource: The book discussed on the Perceptron topics is “New Dark Age” by James Bridle, Article here: https://www.theguardian.com/books/201..
