In India, people have caught monkeys by setting out a small box with a tasty nut in it. There is an opening in the box large enough for the monkey to thrust in his hand, but too small for him to withdraw it once his clutched the nut. When the monkey has grabbed the prize, he must either let go and regain his freedom or keep hold and stay trapped.Most monkeys hold onto the nut, making it easy for hunters to pick them up. People have been known to get caught in the same kind of trap.

During the conquest of Asia by Alexander the Great, the Greeks were eventually introduced to the unknown cultures and cosmological schemes of Syria, Babylon, Persia and central Asia. It didn’t take too long after that for the Greeks to overtake cuneiform script as the international language of academic communication and part of this action was the transference of astrology from cuneiform to Greek.

"At the Center for Artificial Intelligence, University of São Paulo, our main goal is to produce machine-intelligence research that has a direct impact on society and industry. One of our five core programmes, for example, examines the influence of climate change, biodiversity and mineral resources on Brazil’s Atlantic coastline and the people who live there. A common problem we face is that some researchers coming from other areas just want a programmer. In my opinion, they need to be more willing to share their knowledge and problems, rather than just adopting a ‘come and help me do programming’ approach. My question for researchers who are hoping to collaborate with AI specialists is: are you hoping to have someone who’s ‘good at computers’ help you to do some data analysis, or do you actually need to ask much deeper questions, which AI might be able to help you answer?"

Like A Rolling Stone
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn’t you?
People’d call, say, “Beware doll, you're bound to fall”
You thought they were all kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don’t talk so loud
Now you don’t seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal
How does it feel?
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
Bob Dylan. 1965.
