It’s about setting the rules
“It’s about setting the rules,” Kasparov said. “And setting the rules means that you have the perimeter. And as long as a machine can operate in the perimeter knowing what the final goal is, even if this is the only piece of information, that’s enough for machines to reach the level that is impossible for humans to compete.”

The problem with classifications
“Boltanski also recommended particularly that I read Georges Perec, who I discovered had some fascinating things to say about the relation between order and disorder. In his essay collection Penser / Classer (Think / Classify), Perec writes that order entails disorder and vice versa. He also speaks of the depressing aspect of all systems of absolute order that do not admit chance, differences, diversity. In other words, he claims that order is always ephemeral, that it can become disorder again the next day: ‘My problem with classifications is, that they don’t last; as soon as I have finished a certain order, it is already lapsed. Like everyone else i sometimes have a mania of ordering things. But because of the abundance of things to be ordered and the near impossibility of ordering them into a satisfying classification, I never come to an end. I have to stop with a provisory and vague order, which seldom is more effective than the previous disorder.’

"... abstract art, which strips away the narrative, the real-life, expected visuals, requires active problem-solving. We instinctively search for patterns, recognizable shapes, formal figures within the abstraction. We want to impose a rational explanation onto the work, and abstract and minimalist art resists this. It makes our brains work in a different, harder, way at a subconscious level. Though we don’t articulate it as such, perhaps that is why people find abstract art more intimidating, and are hastier to dismiss it. It requires their brains to function in a different, less comfortable, more puzzled way. More puzzled even than when looking at a formal, puzzle painting."

“So it goes with the fiction we read, the movies we watch, the music we listen to and, scarily, the ideas we subscribe to. They’re not challenged. They’re validated and reinforced. By bookmarking given blogs and personalizing social-media feeds, we customize the news we consume and the political beliefs we’re exposed to as never before. And this colors our days, or rather bleeds them of color, reducing them to a single hue.“

“People aren't machines, we need time to feel the emotion. And if the movie doesn't give it to us, we don't believe it.”

“I address the impossibility of predicting the future in Age of Earthquakes: A Guide to the Extreme Present, the book I wrote with Douglas Coupland and Shumon Basar. The internet is changing the structure of our brains and the structure of our planet in extraordinary ways, so quickly that we haven’t yet developed a proper vocabulary for it. Technological progress has accelerated to the point that the future is happening to us far faster than we could ever have anticipated. This new world is what we call “extreme present,” a time in which it feels impossible to maintain pace with the present, never mind to chart the future.“
