My old freind henry is here with his daughter Gigi and her BF Matt who is just starting as a freshman at UVM. . Herny and I were good freinds during my last year at MIT in 1980-81.. he was part of the swarm of freinds we had in Bexeley Hall&#8230;. its so cool to hang up with him now 35 years later.. We spent the day walking in the woods and hanging out.. talking about old times and old friends.<br \/>\nThe other thing we talked about is Articifical Intelligence.. Henry&#8217;s dad.. Marvin Minsky.. was one of the founders of the AI movement .. He was well known for that when I was at MIT&gt;. and his reuptation grew until his death earlier this year.. I remember visiting their house in Brookline .. they had a swing in their lifving room .. and an old WWII bomb..<\/p>\n<p>Henry works at Nest.. part of Google, and is also very much into AI..it must be genetic. we spent a couple of hours talking about modeling schma for robotics.. it was so cool talkign to him about that becase i spent a good part of last week talkign to colleagies in Zurich about the same thing. It&#8217;s so much fun to talk to someone so passiononate about a topic that I love too. We were talkign about how an AI system like a robot would learn about the world.. such cool stuff&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We all took a great walk around libbys lookout.. .. it was starting to look like it was almost heading towards fall !<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_7855.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_7853.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_7857.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_7861.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_7851.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_7850.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>ok.. i have soem coding to do.. more tomorrow<\/p>\n<p>nite all. nite sam<\/p>\n<p>-me<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Great, slow day back home. so need the down time.
