"Functional Ambiguity is very important to design meaningful experiences" - From a conversation today with @MendelKaelen
If GAN-Art has proven anything, it is that Humans can have a strong emotional reaction to a statical distribution - to the point of suspending disbelieve and irrationally attributing creative agency to a tensor of numbers. Magical thinking in age of AI?
Where Design Craft & Creativity Is Going Next - talk by Andreas Markdalen: Great talk on the future of design, touching on many topics incl. generative design. Cheers to @AMarkdalen for mentioning my work towards the end! #Design #Generative

I am in luck. Last night's sandstorm has brought a flock of Tumbleweasels right into my camp. These spherical mammals can travel over hundreds of miles just using the force of wind.

Human-centered AI: a Case for Cognitively Inspired Machine Intelligence - Fei-Fei Li: #ML
"It is estimated that humans by the age of 6 are able to recognise 30'000 categories of objects"
"A discrete list of objects is not what the human visual systems gets when you open your eyes - in fact, its the interaction, the relationship between objects, people and actions that really define our rich visual experience."
Visual Genome: "a dataset, knowledge base - an ongoing effort to connect structured image concepts to language": http://visualgenome.org/
4 Future Directions for Visual Intelligence:
"I hope to see the next generation of AI tech will be more inspired by human intelligence - by Neuro, Cognitive & Behaviour science"
"The goal of AI should be benefiting humanity, should be enhancing humanity - not replacing it"
