Certainly. Here's a concise summary of Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid (GEB) by Douglas Hofstadter:

  GEB explores the deep connections between mathematics, art, and music to illuminate how consciousness and meaning emerge from systems — especially self-referential or recursive systems. From Chat GPT.

Random New Code ProjectsThoughts

 I wanted to work on new code projects, just random thoughts. Web Server that is free web friendly.  Avoids paywalls, session state, cookies.  Doesn't serve images or media. And just basic stuff.  Simplest http responses ever. And just small projects: How do these menu and restaurant sites operate, would like a simple framework for them. Basic blogger or microblogger too Custom event planner sites

Here are random chat gpt prompts and chats with the bot

 "What are tips for writing game story" 🔑 1. Know Your Game Genre & Style Match tone and depth to the gameplay: A platformer might need a light, symbolic story; an RPG may need complex character arcs. Study similar games : What story mechanics work well? What doesn’t? What is the color of music The phrase "the color of music" is poetic and metaphorical—it doesn’t have a literal answer, but it can be interpreted in a few meaningful ways depending on context: Some people experience synesthesia , a neurological phenomenon where senses blend together. For them: Music has color . A violin note might appear blue . A trumpet might flash gold . A chord progression could "feel" like a sunset. Each pitch, key, or timbre might trigger different visual color sensations. This content is taken directly from chat gpt and my questions. Enjoy

Random rant and thoughts on AI LLM, AI Statistical Modls

Big Claims, Real Limits There’s a lot of hype about AI right now. Some CEOs say AI has already surpassed human intelligence. Others claim it can replace all office work. Take this quote from OpenAI’s Sam Altman: “We are past the event horizon… The takeoff has started.” – Sam Altman, MarketWatch Interview (2025) He also wrote: “Robots are not yet walking the streets… we still can’t easily go to space, and there is a lot about the universe we don’t understand.” – Sam Altman’s Blog: The Gentle Singularity Bold stuff. But here’s my everyday, boots-on-the-ground experience. I’ve experimented with GitHub Copilot, DuckDuckGo AI, Agentic AI, Google’s AI tools, and I'm also building my own local LLM setup. I’d consider myself a layman when it comes to the deep internals of LLMs, but I use them regularly in a hands-on way. Good Uses of AI (So Far) AI tools work great for quick, well-scoped questions: “What’s 45 million divided by 100,000?” “How do I fix an SSL error in a Java HTTP...

Curious on changes to CS course load

 Here are some top courses and the impact to AI, so far not a big amount of change.  A couple of additions. Kind of reminds when I was school at UA, they added a Java source. See Georgia Tech and UA. https://catalog.gatech.edu/coursesaz/cs/ https://catalog.ua.edu/undergraduate/engineering/computer-science/courses/ CS 7545. Theoretical Foundations of Machine Learning. 3 Credit Hours. CS 7751. Probabilistic Graphical Models in Machine Learning. 3 Credit Hours. CS 7651. Human and Machine Learning. 3 Credit Hours. CS 7643. Deep Learning. 3 Credit Hours. Reinforcement Learning Computational Foundations of Machine Learning

Trump and Elon Musk Feuding

 Elon Musk and Donald Trump feuding right now.

My post on AGI type approaches based on brain vs LLMs

 I asked this into Chat GPT (source chatgpt question) "So when you look at current AI technology like LLM technology, it is currently, it is highly based on digital prompt inputs and analyzing large datasets with billions of parameters from text data.   The human brain does not necessarily operate that way.   What are current approaches to bridge the gap between low tech human brain processes to the machine learning algorithms with LLMs.  Projects like the numenta project and thousand brain project" Here is the response from chatgpt - source chatgpt model as of Jun5. "Recent AI research increasingly looks to the brain for inspiration. Neuroscience-derived ideas—such as sensorimotor learning, modular cortical columns, and memory consolidation—are being used to overcome limitations of today’s deep learning systems. For example, Numenta’s new Thousand Brains Project is an open-source initiative to build AI on cortical principles (sensorimotor input, grid-c...

Interesting smaller companies in early days to large products

 I remember some of these companies back in the day, now they are larger. I am going off memory: Google to Alphabet Yahoo to Yahoo Netscape - Didn't morph into Mozilla and Mozilla Foundation SmartBear - of Smartbear UI Fiddler to Fiddler AI 3dfx - bought out by Nvidia
