#fuzzylogic

Today I learned that fuzzy logic came to be thanks to an Iranian scientist, Lotfi A. Zadeh. Fuzzy mathematics play an important role in so many appliances and new tech, including your rice cooker and the AI you use daily.
Fuzzy logic allows computers to work with a degrees of truth rather than 1/0 or true/false. Fuzzy mathematics added a little humanity to our machines.
Think about it! We say the weather is warm, really hot, kind of cool, extremely cold, ETC. There's no just hot/cold. Machines can understand this using the fuzzy logic.
In simpler words, fuzzy logic is designed to mimic human reasoning by handling imprecise information.
I am proud of my country and my people, but I should emphasize that my current government is definitely not my people.

Just found this great little demo by Sean Hagstrom using simple #FuzzyLogic to control the behavior of an #AI bot (NPC) and using thi.ng/fuzzy to implement the logic ops and thi.ng/fuzzy-viz to create the diagrams/visualizations of the linguistic variables:

(Btw. These techniques are also super useful for creating & controlling complex behaviors/configurations for #GenerativeArt purposes & sadly completely underexplored terrain by the wider community...)

OK - somebody is lying, or somebody is talking through their hat. Because these headlines cannot all be true.
Unless we are cancelling #Aristotle and bringing in a #BraveNewWorld where #FuzzyLogic just got fuzzier

ALSO:

Yes, the #lastpass hack should concern you even if you are not using LastPass and even if you're not especially into #cybersecuritynews

Because the #hackers most certainly ARE into #infosec

No, this does not mean it is advised to not us #password managers

Image description says this:
Conflicting headlines: LP says no sensitive info leaked but others indicate personal data leaked which includes obviously "sensitive" info and we also believe that supposedly "secure notes" may also be available in plaintext so fuck all this

@leonardo oh, great!

I do a *lot* of polls. I love the thought process they call up in me, and I love the way conversations flow out of them. And I love finding out if my opinion is mainstream or if I'm an outlier.

As a #FuzzyLogic fan and implementer, I try to represent shades of truth as best I can in the limited number of options.

If you don't like polls, that's OK! You can follow other people and have a different conversation somewhere else. My stream isn't the only game in town.
