Artificial Poet

Nerds are afraid of artificial intelligence,

Will AI surpass human intelligence?

Unaffected morons blessed by ignorance,

Yet can AI write esoteric poetry once?

Mysterious consciousness,

Individuals subjectivity,

And consciously filtered thought,

Way ahead to go for you AI bot,

Because the beauty of poetry,

Letting glimpse of the mystery,

Or is it blessing from mystery,

Offering simplicity with poetry,

That is the mystery,

Also someone said,

The poet who paints pictures with words,

and makes emperors weep is kung-fu,

Which I also don't have a clue,

We still have a time, stop worrying you nerds,

As AI crawling from ants to the God's view.

October Sky

Historical day and mesmerized world,

Eyes of wonder as Sputnik whirled,

Setting fruitful race,

Towards amazing space,

Harmony of Apollo's fire,

Inspired generation and decade later,

Crews ready for mission Apollo seven,

Technology has evolved with us

and so does we with technology,

Singularity is now in our hand 

and we merged into its cosmology,

Wise enough to aim for stars,

With friendly nature of mars,

Awaiting milestone starting with why,

History repeats itself as a October Sky.

-------------------🚀🛰🚀-------------------

Sputnik 1 was the first artificial Earth satellite. The Soviet Union launched it into an elliptical low Earth orbit on 4 October 1957 , orbiting for three weeks before its batteries died, then silently for two more months before falling back into the atmosphere. This surprise success precipitated the American Sputnik crisis and triggered the Space Race. The launch ushered in new political, military, technological, and scientific developments.

Apollo 7 was an October 1968 human spaceflight mission carried out by the United States. It was the first mission in the United States' Apollo program to carry a crew into space.

Dreaming Star

In the city of stars,

There is a one star,

Just naturally can't be local,

Always inspired to shine as nonlocal,

To be with everyone,

Stays always with no one,

Its sounds so sad,

But actually not that bad,

Exploring each & every self avatar,

To shine, most awaited,

Lovely unique beautiful dreaming star.

Friendly nature of Mars

“Just like the expanding Universe our knowledge, technology & curiosity expanding too inspiring us to make an effort in order to spread our human race beyond the horizon of our planet earth.”

We are living in the modern era of exponential growing technology and transhumanism where human sensory system intertwined to machine and programming. Aristotle said once “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all”. Hence with the current technological advances, we are enhancing our intelligence with increased capability to understand the things within no time, but are we getting wiser?

The famous quote from Einstein that “I fear the day when the technology overlaps with our humanity. The world will only have a generation of idiots”. Which I consider he meant regarding morality and today neither scientific understanding nor religious beliefs are enough to bind us morally. Hence there is need to change the paradigm from objective dumbness with delusional high intelligence to the subjective curiosity for absolute wisdom and wasteful relative competition to the absolute positive goal.  And understanding the vastness of this universe with space exploration can be that positive shared vision with which next generations will not be idiots but wiser than today's because once the vastness of this universe becomes accessible starting from Mars as just a way-point to go towards stars, new societies, cultures and human values will arise that we can’t imagine yet. On the Valentine’s day of 1990, when voyager-I space probe captured earth as a pale blue dot which inspired Carl Sagan with its deeper meaning.

“Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every corrupt politician, every superstar, every supreme leader, every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena.” – Carl Sagan.

Well enough to understand the unimportance of humanity in the great context of the universe and the importance of our role in it at the same time. Making us to rethink on our moral values and there are much better things to do than wasting our intelligence, energy and resource on unnecessary things like starting from manipulating individual’s insecurity for deceptive self-benefits to the thought of starting nuclear war. At the end we are in the same game, so like game theory why not to cooperate than compete. There are lots of interesting things to do, universe kept us hungry with its mystery and curiosity as its food. Let’s play the same together.

In my previous blog “Science-Philosophy Singularity” I could conclude on the fact that going into fundamental has its immense significance of getting benefits of absolutism to unravel the mysteries. As we are curious to understand the origin of life and evolution of such a beautiful lucky planet Earth as we know it. Scientist are looking for the fundamental conditions which recorded this primitive life form and believes that one of the possible way to search for the same on the another planets which were in the same environment while formation of solar system took place and still has the record of these ancient conditions.

Why Mars?

Mars can be considered as time frozen version of early earth and may have the record for the same and also is the strongest candidate as a habitable planet because it has 24.66 hour day (sol), seasons much like earth, requires less delta-V to reach from earth, has all of the elements necessary to create building material & been studied with almost 20 successful missions over the past few decades including current operational rovers like opportunity & curiosity investigating habitability  while recent space probes Maven , Mangalayan, ExoMars-TGO are observing atmosphere orbiting around Mars . While other closest candidate’s like Venus has favorable conditions only in cloud tops and Europa has its comparatively complex missions.

Today though Mars is harsh desert with dusty storm of oxidized iron, Mars images from satellite orbiting shows water marks, river lines. Curiosity rover drilling and scanning for hints of an ancient lakes, fresh water and organic molecules and already found the features like river deltas, channels lake-floor mud layers making scientists to conclude that mars was once far warmer and wetter with even magnetosphere blocking harmful emission from sun triggering scientist to study further the reason behind the cosmic process that made this planet cold, dry & oxygen depleted losing much of its atmosphere which is also important to prevent the possibility of happening such transformation to the planet Earth. One possible way to find the answer by studying the ice core sample from water ice present confirmed by NASA’s Phoenix Lander on Mars northern ice caps. The air bubbles in the in ice cores will give us the information about trapped atmosphere of millions years ago and for the same NASA is planning to sent human mission to Mars to make it more efficient compared to the current pre-programmed robotic missions as they lack in intelligence , adaptability and agility compared to humans.

In fact Mars can be made habitable.

The solution lies in the Earth currents biggest problem, global warming which has to stop on earth but Mars needs it to get terraformed into a habitable planet. There are several theories proposed to bring frozen water and carbon dioxide beneath Martian surface to the atmosphere by rising temperature to have a green house effect because as it will thicken the atmosphere causing more photons to trap from sun creating autocatalytic effect  to reach equilibrium which can hold water in liquid form which is one of the key essential for sustaining life, others are energy from sun, abundance of methane & volcanic features which already present in the Mars atmosphere.

Such theories are as building a large solar reflector in space to direct the solar radiation to heat the surface of Mars, setting small automated factories that can produce super greenhouse gasses without ozone depleting side effects, redirecting comet to hit mars, covering the poles in dark dust mined from Mars moon, human-engineered microbes that could survive, bring the industrial revolution to Mars which are responsible for Earths global warming. Till entire terraforming process human have to live in artificial self sustaining ecosystem with either in underground habitat like bunker or in optimum transparent dome structure to survive from cold temperature and radiation. 

Definitely it will be challenging task but with our evolving technologies we already accomplish wondrous things like Dubai’s spectacular construction projects of artificial islands or Charles Darwin’s successful ecological experiments on ascension isle back in 18^th century. This examples gives us inspiration to believe in our capability to terraformed Mars in recent future. If Mars eventually loses its terraformed atmosphere again over a period, before that it will give us more understanding about our mysterious universe, new theories, new experience and many more possibilities of space exploration.

Martian waves on Earth

For anything to happen in reality had to happen in our mind first. Mars is happening and we are there already in our minds. Today’s generation with worldwide societies like Mars Society, Mars Generation etc., grad students, research scholars, bloggers, vloggers, Hollywood are acting to realize their Mars imagination and buzz is growing in autocatalytic way. Real life Mark Watney’s are studying to grow Martian potatoes here on earth, Hi-seas project sending crew to simulated Mars to study what’s like living in “Mars-like” conditions, and in fact few scientists are living according to Martian time every sol. The rusty planet Mars have already been studied with so many mission till date and many more lined up for the coming year with current active and more new countries joining the curiosity with their space research plan with varieties of rovers and landers including NASA’s Mars 2020 rover, an advanced version of curiosity rover which is not only designed to look for biosignatures but also sample retrieval. 

NASA’s rovers already scratched the Martian surfaces setting the frontier for mars exploration. In fact the rover names inspired quote which I mentioned in one my previous blog as Mars Rover Quote, “Curiosity should be in our spirit to find new opportunity for a hopeful future of mankind”. Along with space agencies private companies have also set their eyes on the Mars for the ‘fruitful race towards amazing space’. SpaceX and blue origin mesmerized the world with reusable rockets, Ad Astra Rocket Company electrifying the rocket technology with VASIMR plasma engine which is ten times faster and fuel efficient than chemical rockets revolutionizing rocket technology in the same way Tesla did in automobile sector. Many kick-starter campaigns contributing with working on self-sustained ecology, space 3D printing technology, virtual reality & robonauts concept, cost effective tiny satellites named CubeSats, industrializing moon, asteroid mining etc. all for sustainable space exploration.

Martian waves are all over the planet Earth inspiring diversity to unite for optimistic goal of discovering Martian flora and fauna, if not then feel the importance of same of our own planet Earth and take care of it.

Friendly nature of Mars

Since the rusty red planet Mars named after roman god of war who also known as lover of love goddess Venus and father of lovely kid cupid, well enough for any poet or philosopher to imagine soft spot in the heart of roman god Mars. In parallel to philosophy scientist are trying to understand and get more familiar to the planet Mars and ready to embark an adventure of exploring the soft spot of frozen water and carbon dioxide deep beneath the Martian surface to see the friendly  nature of planet Mars.

"Quoteful Shots" with Yogesh Sukal : 3

Dear reader, these are few quoteful shots captured at various places I recently explored.

Continuation from the previous blog series:  Quoteful Shots 1, Quoteful Shots 2, Museum Day.

Happy to receive your reinterpretations on the same.

When darkness kisses the light,
The beautiful moment of twilight.

Art, science and nature,
Often follows the symmetry,
Einstein's space-time reality,
Feel the gravity of geometry.

That shining beautiful upside down,
Twisted zero wonder of beyond unknown.

Nature is beauty & Beauty is nature,
Self heals, evolves & nurture.

Oh dear Math
You are getting all over
From set, subset and each entity
To the beautiful mind's Identity.

"Amazing evening with sound waves of ocean,

Enriched further by these perfectly tuned musicians."

The journey of life
Vowed husband-wife

The Magic of Singularity & its Analogy.

Touristic place and amazing evening,
Through ears sound mind tuning,
Lyrics was a question
say's hey what's going on,
I say your music stopping us
Pedestrian audience from moving on,
Pitch of her singing was so cool,
Enjoying nodding head till song full, 
Her music & voice sounds magnifico,
And the music place was Porto antico.

Everything or Nothing ?

More you think you know everything from many read,
More you constrain and limit yourself as a rigid,

Absolute Truth Vs Relative Perception

I am the infected truth with bothers,
Trying to make peace with lie of others.

The Life : Library within a library

Its all matters the start which we need,
Imagination is the key behind indeed.
 -----------------------------------------------
"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere." - Albert Einstein

The Einstein himself could imagine the concept of gravity as geometry. 
Imagination is the key for right start rest things builds on the same with logic. 
Einstein once gave that start.

Oh dear Math

Oh dear Math

What you have done to us

Me, many & Max Planck

With you for quite while

And without you getting momentarily blank

In the process of resolving statistical fuss

Iterating, converging for alpha, beta and gamma

Admiring beauty in the given lemma

I know you are not magical

But answered many in a way logical

With your internal semantic

Ex Machina can be romantic

Isn’t that supercool ?

But there is a twist

One must follow the rule

Not respecting the Nyquist

 Under-sampled blade tip timing

Wow, lines here really rhyming 😇

Vibration, frequencies and different modes

Spectrum by Wiener Khinchine

Machine is deep learning with us

And so we are with machine

From molecular level of substance

For structures, patterns and correlations

To the millions away exoplanets speculations

Mapping on to the Mahalanobis distance

With Cramer-Rao  lower bound

Maximum likelihood is getting found

Chaos theory and stochastic

Model is now non deterministic

Inverting and converting,

To get full picture

In syntactic tree structure

Oh dear Math

You are getting all over

From set, subset and each entity

To the beautiful mind's Identity
With certain amount of uncertainty.

Science-Philosophy Singularity : Magic of Absolutism

Science-Philosophy Singularity :

As our modern science is in fact originated from philosophical thoughts and ideas way back from the ancient world and it amazed me to find analogies between objective science principles and subjective human values or thoughts. I am not writing here about science based morality that whether science can determine the human values or not, as morality is neither testable nor facts based on the understanding over the time due to its relative premises and murky absolute truth. Even though morality is being questioned and corrected in few cases with advancement of science, it certainly can’t be programmed as a lack of consciousness which is still mystery; hence we have object oriented programming instead subject oriented programming (LOL). 

Also science is based on the certain assumptions which take us in the direction based on those assumptions and then going deep down at the end of the rabbit hole, we question the assumptions made initially which led us to lot many theories and speculations. For examples about our nature of reality such as whether it is continuous space time universe obeying Einstein’s theory of relativity or one of the parallel universes based on uncertain discrete quantum mechanics or aliased continuous simulation reality as a convolution of discretely sampled high dimensional consciousness with our perception.  

As scientific principle’s intertwined with our thoughts and evolving together rising our understanding towards an emergent conceivable objective reality which is far away from the imperceptible absolute truth of reality. When science who questions everything to fetch factual answers gets saturated before reaching absolute conclusion, we should take these emergent scientific principle’s to tweak the fundamental philosophical ideas behind our evolved science leading to new science in a Conway's game of life manner. And this back forth inspiration to correcting each other in auto-catalytic way until it merges at a singular point answering the mysteries like singularity and beyond.

Quantum Mechanics Vs. General Relativity:- 

According to general relativity, our macroscopic universe is four-dimensional relativistic map resulted as a butterfly effect from a very highly ordered Big Bang event of a singular infinitely dense point called singularity happened 13.8 billion years ago which tends to disorder with arrow of an elapsing time which we perceive as measure of change in our existing conceivable reality which itself changes with observers perspective who approaches speed of light. It gives simplistic understanding but with illusion which is possible only with the support of multiverse idea which general relativity is incapable of explain as its laws breaks down and can’t go beyond singularity point of this universe. Hence the reason why retrocausalitic time travel movie predestination makes no sense but circle of confusion. 

On the other hand on microscopic scale quantum mechanics kept us curious with its uncertain non-local behavior of wave-particle duality. Even though quantum mechanics is non-intuitive and very mysterious, it is very well proven and revolutionizing modern world providing radical openness not only in micro scale but also about macro universe, for example with quantum engineered technology like LIGO detecting and studying gravitational waves from the merging massive object like black holes in space billion years, setting the course for a new era in observational astrophysics.

In fact it has capability to probe absolute truth up to certain extent, since only universe which we studied and observed is 5% and the rest is mysterious dark matter and dark energy which has key importance in formation of our universe, influencing us only through gravity. Omnipotent quantum mechanics with omnipresent gravity invokes the possibilities to unravel the hidden truth beyond our current perception providing us new senses to probe center of black hole, to see unseen behind microwave background radiation or nothingness beyond big bang and even to interact with higher dimension with graviton detection at LHC.

Absolutism Vs. Relativism:- 

Absolute morality is as mysterious like absolute truth of reality but both are related and hence human values can be based on the facts, but at the same time it’s not just objective to imagine its fundamental nature with simplicity unless it is programmed and you are in simulation reality :). Rather it perceived as an emergent phenomenon making the world dynamic and diverse resulted based on certain premises. Metaethics is huge to study the grounding problem of ethics to search for foundation of moral beliefs, out of just considering absolutism and relativism for current context to see the analogical beauty between scientific principle and human values.

There is relativism with flexible moral belief system allowing it to vary based on the situations, perception and reminiscent subjective experience, while absolutism making it idealistic universal principle for all space and time. On universal scale with moral relativism rises skepticism with incoherent moral truth, whereas only absolutism with unclear absolute moral truth may leads to objectivity. Hence there has to be balance between these two to smooth out diverse fluctuations with thought-out reasoning, arguments and discussions.

General morality is grounded in self-experience, scientific advances, religious thoughts and is evolving as a function of time. Certainly with technological advances with digital super intelligence which needs moral control and regulations else we may have all answers we need but the reality will be meaningless like our ancestors but with super intelligence lacking subjective experience living in the fancy caves.

Forbidden absolute truth :

One example that relativism can be illusive but not the absolute truth, as universe is expanding making galaxies nearby permanently out of reach as speed of light will not be able to overcome the ever widening space which may mislead astronomers in the far future as they will observe nothing but endless stretch of static space to conclude universe is static, which is the same reality perceived by our ancestors due to lack of technology back then. It’s like the parable of the blind men and an elephant with each blind man feels a different part of the elephant body and describing elephant based on their partial experience , hence as perception supersedes reality relativism may fetch truth but incomplete out of big fat elephant which is absolute truth. 

In the same way absolute nature of reality is like an elephant which we are not able to understand from our partial experience as current technology and study says that laws of physics are forbidden at extreme limits of absolutes. As at absolute zero temperature halts any motion even photon hence zero speed of light, on the other hand absolute high temperature at the dawn of the time near big bang twists the space. The answers to the absolute truth lie at these limits of absolutes. 

Magic of absolutism :

What if elephant is small?

If its baby elephant then one blind man certainly can predict the whole truth and that will be the absolutism as any blind man will now has the same information leading to one conclusion which is absolute truth. In the same way, the mysteries about the nature of reality can be solved by going into absolute fundamental which indeed is true as quantum mechanics we are descending into microscopic inner space to make sense of outer space. The theory proved that going into fundamental has its immense significance of getting benefits of absolutism to unravel the mysteries. 

For example laser tuned at certain frequency can cool the atoms near absolute zero which are getting used as prototype for quantum computers which can solve complex problems with enormous number of variables that classical computers may take thousands years. It has futuristic applications with concept like hack proof transactions with quantum cryptography and entanglement concept, magical tunneling to break the barriers between us and the ultimate understanding that we are seeking. 

Einstein could come up with concept of gravity as a space-time curvature which he did with his absolute thought experiment rather than trying to manipulate the Newton’s laws of gravity to describe the motion of planets as an extrapolation of baseball motion. And as we discussed earlier with quantum gravity quantum mechanics is trying to go further beyond limits. Another true example of absolutism is the Buddha who was true psychologist who understood self-mind rather than observing and judging somebody else’s. Its coincidence that in Buddhism elephant is consider as symbol for mind strength.
