I am still assimilating the Jahan/Ada video.

Originally shared by Edgar Allan Wright

I am still assimilating the Jahan/Ada video.  

Still formulating past, present, future, alternative possibilities in the ominously titled computational substrate.  

So much implication in so few words. Images of possibilities.

And somewhere in there I felt the shade of Calvin. Everything he did and said in the decades I knew him takes on a new shade of meaning.  It is visible now from a different angle -- like viewing the world from inside the magician’s sleeve.

Everything he did led to this moment, Whydah, Niantic...  Everything.  And yet he is not here for his triumph.  

Or have I got it all wrong? Is he the villain or hero of the piece?  Is he the hand moving the pieces, or is he just a piece?

Meditating. Contemplating. Assembling.

Akira Tsukasa and DeepMind During Aegis Nova Akira Tsukasa were seen in an Ingress Report. https://youtu.be/-6V9dR-2zdE Taking a look on the background there was something similar to a connected portal network. It took a bit time to identify this pattern. The background is similar to DeepMind's. https://deepmind.com/applied/deepmind-for-google/ DeepMind is a Neural Turing Machine, or a neural network that may be able to access an external memory like a conventional Turing machine, resulting in a computer that mimics the short-term memory of the human brain. What is the connection between Akira and DeepMind? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeepMind
