bletchley park (ii) | the resource hub
On this page you can find current and historical background papers and links to the ideas on intuition validation I have been working with since 2016 or so in a focused way, ever since I started my MA in International Criminal Justice at Liverpool John Moores University, UK.
In a less focused way, however, I see now I’ve been interested in the subject since I went to university in 1980 and began to study Film & Literature: a creative industry which uses technology to expand, enhance, and make human beings more important.
Below, in the carousel you can see five historical projects.
If you click on them, they will each take you to their whitepaper on GB 2 Earth.
Other resources and background follow below.
Meantime, I posted not long ago an essay that this quote from Alan Turing, which came my way via my LinkedIn feed and someone I follow called Martin Ciupa, felicitously reminded me of previous thinking of mine this year, whilst I had been staying in Stockholm Sweden and learning from Swedish people and society.
The essay’s introductory page is on GB 2 Earth and can be accessed and downloaded by clicking here.
The purpose of this resource hub, on the same subject, is to bring together previous trails of thought and attempt to begin to roadmap, collectively and individually, ways of implementing intuition validation tools and architectures in order to construct a safer world for us all.
The Intuition Validation Engine and related concepts
One of the challenges I faced when I presented my projects on intuition validation over the years to various interested parties, not least tech corporations, small companies, and even British homeland security, was that they always said there would exist serious privacy concerns when attempting to first capture and then — as I progressed with my ideas — validate human intuition.
I sensed sometimes it was used as an excuse by all these parties not to explore any of my ideas, because when push came to shove, privacy was often given short shrift if the business model being used required that it be dispensed with.
And here, precisely here, was the problem. Eventually, I responded firmly and in good faith to their concerns. Below you can see the three elements I sketched, in a finally unified and foundation-building way, to address what they said was worrying them.
I sincerely believe they felt they were acting in as good a faith as the circumstances allowed, but equally sincerely I don’t think their intellectual rigour was much in evidence either.
Here are the main links on GB 2 Earth you need to review if you’re interested in deepening your understanding of what, still, I believe we need to do.
