Next time don't do research when you are hurt. You can avoid killing other people that way. You obviously channelled vengeance towards a selected person to confirm your biased views that got you hurt to begin with. Shameful.

Yesterday I gave this talk to the Design Engineering community at @imperialcollege, where I leaned more towards the philosophical side of Ghost Circuits: youtube.com/watch?v=-A9qvg1v…

Look forward to give this public talk at 11am today in the Dyson Building Library, 25 Exhibition Road, South Kensington. #ghostcircuits
Conscious part of intelligent behavior is only one part. There are sub-conscious mechanical side to it too. This book tries to expose that. Hope you will enjoy the story.
Thank you, @MarwaEldiwiny. You did a wonderful job distilling a five-year journey into a short conversation. I am delighted that these ideas are reaching a wider audience and provoking discussion about ghostly nature of intelligence.

Ghost Circuits… Machines That Think Without Code.
What if intelligence doesn’t come from code at all?
Computing comes from the tunability of materials and geometries.
I sit down with @thrishlab to share his journey of writing Ghost Circuits, it took him five years.
Made a short home demo using Hexbugs and stones to illustrate a central idea behind Ghost Circuits.

Beyond bigger models, the next frontier is intelligence that emerges through physical interaction. Mountain goat hooves, human fingernails, even a dead fish drifting upstream hold clues. That idea has shaped much of my robotics work, and inspired Ghost Circuits.
Early readers are taking Ghost Circuits in directions I had hoped for but could never predict, from systems thinking to philosophy to embodied intelligence.
Grateful to see it reaching readers in 10 countries already.

Signed the first copy. Felt so good to see a young person excited about going beyond the brain to understand intelligence as an embodied process.

I’m releasing Ghost Circuits book after more than fifteen years of research about how intelligence really emerges from movement and interaction. It invites you to rethink #intelligence. Now the Kindle version is available for pre-ordering: amazon.co.uk/dp/B0GZHZBTSM

Oh, so sad. I think it was Einstein who said that he knows about two infinite things. One is universe and the other is human stupidity. He was not very sure about the former. I think this photo shows human hatred is a third competitor. The sane world should act fast.
