Near The Tipping Point

by Chris Gilbey at 08:05AM (EST) on June 27, 2008 | Permanent Link | Cosmos

According to James Hansen, the renowned American climatologist, we are very close to the tipping point for the planet.

And in the mean time politicians are opening shopping centres and getting given bottles of Grange. Really quite tragic. Because the people just sit there like dumb animals and continue to consume flat panel TV's. Was it Karl Marx that said that religion was the opiate of the masses? He was wrong - it is media that provides the soporific environment for people to sit snugly and consume while the planet goes to hell in a handbasket.

Wake up, people!

Perceptric Forum

According to Wikipedia a perceptron is a type of artificial neural network.

Ergo a “Perceptric” is a person who creates or uses a neural network.

The Perceptric Blog is where Chris Gilbey posts thoughts, ideas, and links intended to stimulate thought and accelerate the transfer of ideas.

Chris is available for consulting work with the premise that it is not technologies that are disruptive so much as the people that use them.

The Perceptric mission is to help companies and people reach their goals and exceed their expectations. This will often mean offering counterintuitive conclusions.

Our view? The shortest distance between two points is not necessarily a straight line. It's the number of people needed to be present in a human network to influence and deliver positive decision making.
