Humanitarian Science 101 (Sonnet 1202) | Abhijit Naskar | Rowdy Scientist

BRAIN means Benevolent Reformer
Applying Information Nobly.
DATA means Determined Action
of Transformative Awareness.

Information Technology is primitive IT,
Civilized IT means Informed Transformation.
Heuristic and holistic can never go together,
Shortcuts only obstruct the rise of realization.

Electronics means electron artistry.
Chemistry is an art of bonding.
Mathematics is the art of numbers,
Evolution is the art of correcting.

Society without science dumps the world in stoneage,
Science devoid of society shoves the mind into iceage.

Data is Power (Sonnet) | Abhijit Naskar | Azad Earth Army: When The World Cries Blood

Coming from a childhood passion for
electronics, initially I fostered a
favorable outlook on Artificial Intelligence,
but as further implications are beginning to
unfold, I’m developing an ominous distaste.

There is no question about the computational
capacities of AI, but humans are not equipped
to fathom, how to apply such power positively.
Then there is the question of instant garbage
generated by lazy prompts, passed as creativity.

It took 3 years of sweat and vision
for Michelangelo to sculpt David,
today AGI can do that in mere hours.
Does such instant cosmetic art have
any value! AI art is just fancy knockoff.

Human mind seeks understanding,
AI seeks data – lots and lots of data.
AI’s hunger for data is matched only
by the billionaire’s hunger for power.

How much power is enough power,
particularly now when data is power!
What’s the point of power and data,
if they just empower criminal behavior!
