ocrampal<p>We stand at a peculiar moment in human history. Our technical capabilities have never been more impressive—we can manipulate matter at the atomic level, build machines that mimic human conversation, and map the neural activity of living brains in real time. Yet our deepest questions remain as mysterious as ever: What is consciousness? What is life? What is intelligence?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>philosophy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/logic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>logic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>programming</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://www.ocrampal.com/the-source-of-thought-beyond-science-philosophy-and-ai" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ocrampal.com/the-source-of-tho</span><span class="invisible">ught-beyond-science-philosophy-and-ai</span></a></p>

Endor Nim<p>Diary of a Madman. Dear diary, I think I have been too flippant with my political commentary today! I mean, what do I know? Last week I ordered a second hand book on Mathematical logic (Ebbinghaus, Glum and Thomas) on the basis that I thought I should have a more logical grounding to my scientific studies. Actually, that’s not completely true… I saw that there was a chapter on first order logic and got carried away with thinking that I might inculcate some knowledge of the dark side of the force. Alas, it’s beyond me. And all this is to say that maybe I’m wrong on other things too! Maybe Trump is… will be, the greatest president that there ever, ever was. Maybe deploying the military to the mean streets of Washington DC is necessary, after all. Maybe the Israelis didn’t take the wrong lessons from WW2!? And maybe AI will set us free. I mean, what do I know if I can’t even understand first order logic. There’s no way I’ll get to second order logic. Note to self: pick up a box of cheap pencils so that I can break them in half when I get exasperated over my own stupidity and inconsiderateness à la the great Senator Ableukhov. </p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mathematics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/literature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>literature</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>trump</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>democracy</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/logic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>logic</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>israel</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ai</span></a></p>

I did a huge overhaul of the existing course and made some mistakes en route for sure, but overall student feedback was very positive. Although I am not obliged to expose anything behind my LMS paywall, I feel strongly about disseminating teaching as a genuine intellectual output and have a public website up with most of my materials: <a href="https://comp.anu.edu.au/courses/comp2620/news/2025/02/17/welcome/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">comp.anu.edu.au/courses/comp26</span><span class="invisible">20/news/2025/02/17/welcome/</span></a></p>
