Diperbarui:
Claude Elwood Shannon (April 30, 1916 – February 24, 2001) was an American mathematician, electrical engineer, and cryptographer known as "the father of information theory". Shannon is noted for having founded information theory with a landmark paper, "A Mathematical Theory of Communication", which he published in 1948.
He is also well known for founding digital circuit design theory in 1937, when—as a 21-year-old master's degree student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)—he wrote his thesis demonstrating that electrical applications of Boolean algebra could construct any logical numerical relationship.
Art, Automation, and AI — Part 2
Tim picks up the artifact-versus-artifice thread from last week and asks the practical question: what does it have to do with automation and AI?
Shawn's first answer is a distinction. An LLM takes in the corpus of human artifacts, finds the most popular patterns, and stitches them into something th…

Art, Automation, and AI - Part 4
Tim opens by returning to a story from earlier in the series. When ChatGPT 3.5 first hit, he told his wife that if a machine learned to write a book before he did, he was done. That led to the question underneath the whole series: why are you actually doing this? He recaps the first three parts, th…
Clearing the Static
Claude Shannon developed a way to measure uncertainty and explain how noise can corrupt a message. In a world crowded with alerts, opinions, and distractions, what noise is making it harder for us to hear what is true and life-giving?
The Signal Can Still Get Through
Claude Shannon showed that communication doesn’t require a perfect, noise-free channel. When we understand the channel, respect its limits, and protect the message, reliable communication remains possible. Noise is real, but what matters can still get through.
Information Is Surprise
Why does an unexpected result carry more information than one we already anticipated? Claude Shannon found a mathematical way to measure surprise. The unexpected may not always be true or important, but sometimes it reveals that our understanding is incomplete.
