ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE PEOPLE!!
in the recent past man has been trying to impart "sense' into electronic chips.i.e artificial intelligence as the geeks call it.but finally it has been done people .all hail apple!!my ipod a 5th generation 30 gig CLASSIC[emphasis intended] has two a few extraordinary traits.this "discovery" of mine was made during the past few days.rewinding back to the day before of day before yesterday:while i was pondering on how to approach a certain Y[sick of using x in maths so] to whom i havent spoken in a few years and selected "shuffle songs"and ma ipod responded by choosing a brilliant song from its inventory "crash and burn" by the band "savage garden"[a band i recommend],an inspiring motivating,pat on your back kind of song which had lyrics like
"when darkness is upon your door and you feel that you cant take any more
let me be the one you call,if you jump ill break your fall
take you out and go with you into the night"
coming back:the mission was a whooping success and when i was restraining from wolf whistling with great difficulty,my i pod had the audacity to ply me a song of a village belle mourning her loss!!![porale ponnuthaye for the ARR fanatics].im a fan of rahmanji but even so there is a time and place for everything.
this experiment led me to two logical conclusions:
my ipod has
a)A.I[artificial intelligence for the technically uninitiated]
b)attitude[which many humans fail to possess]
wonder how it has those.perhaps kamal hassan has an answer.in his movie "dasavatharam"he says that a butterfly may be the cause of a tsunami[chaos theory simplified to an absurd extent.refer "web of life "by frijtof capra]for me the cause may be simpler to find.a simple drop of my ipod may be the reason for this."chaos theory"validates this.[i know the colour is crap but it is for a reason]
