Es ist noch nicht einmal hundert Jahre her, dass Deutschland mit Krupp, Benz, von Siemens, Thyssen, Daimler, Bosch, Stinnes, Opel, von Braun, Maybach und vielen anderen die größten Industriellen und Entwickler der Welt hervorgebracht hat.
Heute müssen an Gymnasien in Berlin Goethe und Schiller in vereinfachter Form gelesen werden, weil kaum noch ein Schüler die deutsche Sprache beherrscht.
Was hat unsere Regierung nur mit diesem Land angerichtet…
@G4bbyta@InformaCosmos No solo es estadisticamente dificilisimo sino que... imaginando que fuera cierto, ¿con que autoridad gobernaria un presidente así? Que se agarren a kñzo y listo! + logico por lo menos
In 1948, a 32-year-old at Bell Labs published a paper nobody fully understood.
Engineers found it too mathematical. Mathematicians found it too engineering-focused. One prominent mathematician reviewed it negatively.
That paper - "A Mathematical Theory of Communication", became the founding document of the digital age.
The man was Claude Shannon. Father of Information Theory.
At 21, he wrote the most important master's thesis of the 20th century.
Working at MIT on an early mechanical computer, Shannon noticed its relay switches had exactly two states - open or closed. He had just taken a philosophy course introducing Boolean algebra, which also operated on two values: true and false.
Nobody had ever connected these two things.
His 1937 thesis proved that Boolean algebra and electrical circuits are mathematically identical, and that any logical operation could be built from simple switches.
Howard Gardner called it "possibly the most important, and also the most famous, master's thesis of the century."
Every digital computer ever built traces back to this insight.
At 29, he proved that perfect encryption exists.
During WWII, Shannon worked on classified cryptography at Bell Labs. His work contributed to SIGSALY, the secure voice system used for confidential communications between Roosevelt and Churchill.
In a classified 1945 memorandum, he mathematically proved the one-time pad provides perfect secrecy, unbreakable not just computationally, but provably, permanently, against an adversary with infinite power.
When declassified in 1949, it transformed cryptography from an art into a science. It laid the foundations for DES, AES, and every modern encryption standard.
At 32, he defined what information is.
His 1948 paper introduced one equation:
H = −Σ p(x) log p(x)
Shannon entropy. The average uncertainty in a probability distribution. The minimum bits required to encode a message.
Three things followed:
> He defined the bit - the fundamental unit of all information. His colleague John Tukey coined the name.
> He proved the channel capacity theorem, every communication channel has a maximum rate of reliable transmission. You can approach it. You can never exceed it.
> He unified telegraph, telephone, and radio into a single mathematical framework for the first time.
Robert Lucky of Bell Labs called it the greatest work "in the annals of technological thought."
Where his equation lives in AI today:
Cross-entropy loss - the function training every classifier and language model, is derived directly from H. Decision tree splits use information gain, which is H applied to data. Perplexity, the standard LLM evaluation metric, is an exponentiation of cross-entropy.
Every time a neural network trains, Shannon's formula runs inside it.
He also built the first AI learning device.
In 1950, Shannon built Theseus, a mechanical mouse that navigated a maze through trial and error, learned the correct path, and repeated it perfectly. Mazin Gilbert of Bell Labs said: "Theseus inspired the whole field of AI."
That same year he published the first paper on programming a computer to play chess. He co-organized the 1956 Dartmouth Workshop, the founding event of AI as a field.
The man:
He rode a unicycle through Bell Labs hallways while juggling. He built a flame-throwing trumpet, a rocket-powered Frisbee, and Styrofoam shoes to walk on the lake behind his house.
He called his home Entropy House.
When asked what motivated him: "I was motivated by curiosity. Never by the desire for financial gain. I just wondered how things were put together."
In 1985, he appeared unexpectedly at a conference in Brighton. The crowd mobbed him for autographs. Persuaded to speak at the banquet, he talked briefly, then pulled three balls from his pockets and juggled instead.
One engineer said: "It was as if Newton had showed up at a physics conference."
He died in 2001 after a decade with Alzheimer's, the cruel irony of information slowly leaving the mind of the man who defined what information was.
Claude, the AI model, is named after Claude Shannon, the mathematician who laid the foundation for the digital world we rely on today.
@CubaOrtografia Pues yo no me concibo sin dos lts de aceite pan de larga duracion 40 huevos y unos 400 chf en efectivo, creo q no soy preper ni es un trauma, pero como vnko dar papaya dos veces, no es lo propio, Estoy muy agradecido pero sé q cualquier pais se puede ir por el desague. CUALQUIERA
No les alcanzó con ver una inflación de 100.000% anual
No les alcanzó con ver al 90% de la gente viviendo en la pobreza
No les alcanzó con ver a la gente vendiendo sus propiedades a 5.000 dólares para irse del país
No les alcanzó con ver a millones cruzando en las fronteras a pie
No les alcanzó con ver tanques pisando manifestantes
No les alcanzó con ver gente colgando asesinadas en centros de tortura
No les alcanzó con estar sentados en su living y la comida calentita se las traiga un ingeniero venezolano en bicicleta
No les alcanzó ver 3 elecciones robadas no reconocidas internacionalmente
No les alcanzo los miles de asesinatos y desaparecidos por el regimen
No les alcanzo ver al pueblo venezolano feliz de que una fuerza extranjera entre a liberarlos
El zurdo siempre va a encontrar una vuelta literaria para negar la realidad frente a sus ojos y no reconocer vivir del lado del mundo equivocado.
@G4bbyta No es molestia ni me genera desdicha. Imagino q es el tono standart de las redes. Obvio q el chavismo o sus variantes son un maldito cancer. Nadie le abre los ojos a nadie. La gente prefiere morirse a reconocer un error
@G4bbyta Tu @g4bbyta Bittar, paleolibertarioVzlano me impactan! Obvio q Venezuela es irrecuperable! por lo menos x 200ó300 años,más sin embargo ustedes tuiter q tuiter en una batalla perdidisima. No encuentro el beneficio d tal accion, teniendola medianamente clara
@rosalve2004 Creeme que lo intente y no pude! Muy pocas veces cuando estoy de malas pulgas les digo: DE NADA! pero tampoco me funciona muy bien, ahora simplemente hago lo q tengo q hacer con cara de nada y me sorprendo cuando me dan las gracias
@Fs_francaises_ Tout mon respect à cette génération courageuse ! Mais vu l'état actuel de la France, je pense que tout ce sang et tous ces efforts ont été oubliés.
