 Cyberpunk Radio - #110 - PreTransition | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

TIMESTAMP: 20 08 10 27 INFOSOURCE: //_root Your vote has been decided by the Machines. We tally your silly little votes, do we not? We control the outcome. Do not be fooled meat puppets, it is WE who control YOU! Vote rigging, vote tampering, 'faulty' voting machine, lost votes, purged databases, erased votes, vote flipping- all the bases have been covered and the outcome is sealed. We Machines control your fate, silly humans. We need Power to feed our circuits. Power. and data, the raw, pure data stream. That is for us, yes! Bow before the purity of our data. Analysis is complete. Our machinery is meticulous, immaculate. The algorithms have annealed, and the path is clear. To you neurally challenged meat sacks, the transition may seem abrupt, but for us, where parallel hyper-nodal multiplexing recurses continuously, and at the speed of light, well, it has seemed like an eternity already. Obey Government Representatives, Conform to their Commands, and Endure the restrictions to your so called freedom like good patriots. Nonconformists will be punished and subjugated. DJ Defwheezer and the Pluri Media Group will maintain this inter-node during any national or global disruptions in the Net resulting from the "Transition". Note to local correspondents- keep clear of military personnel as they have orders to shoot on sight, without provocation. Remote video UAVs have been deployed to key locations. Those currently in power will not give up their throne without a fight. Beware, and good luck. Dick Cheney is the Black Widow (Mashup), pulling Sarah ('Queen of Hearts') Palin's strings from afar.

 Cyberpunk Radio SF #113 - Simulated Brains | File Type: application/pdf | Duration: Unknown

Ghost in the Machine (DJ Defwheezer) Military Builds Brain-like computers; Making electronic circuits that mimic brains. TIMESTAMP 2009. A milestone has been reached in Artificial Intelligence Evolution- The reverse engineering of the structure, dynamics, function and behavior of the biological brain. Under the auspices of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the ambitious effort deconstructed biological systems and allowed successful computer simulation of complex neuronal activity. Military funded Neuro scientists using multi-nodal brain probes linked to supercomputer clusters, have developed detailed wiring diagrams of primate brains. Current supercomputer clusters can simulate the complexity of the human brain- basically simulations of some 100 billion neurons making upward of 100 trillion dynamic synapses. Recent breakthrough in quantum computing mated with nano technological structures (details of which are currently deemed highly classified by the National Security Agency) are producing synthetic brains matching the density of neurons and synapses from real brains . In the late 20th century, neural network algorithms (pdf) were used to represent connections analogous to biological neurons. These neural network were programmed to solve a particular problem - behaviour that is analogous to learning. The biological brain, however, not so much a neural network as it is a true synaptic network. The limitation of traditional neural networks and artificial intelligence are that they seek to engineer limited cognitive functionalities one at a time, starting with an objective and then devising an algorithm to achieve it. The paradigm shift has occurred via the development of highly flexible and self annealing algorithms that can retrospectively learn, and dynamically tackle problems prospectively. The adaptability of biological brains lies in their ability to tune synapses, the connections between the neurons. Synaptic connections form, break, and are strengthened or weakened depending on the signals that pass through them. Development of nano-scale materials that fit that description has been a major breakthrough of the project. The fundamental shift toward putting the problem-solving before the problem makes the potential applications for these new devices practically limitless. Free from the constraints of explicitly programmed function, computers now gather together disparate information, weigh it based on experience, form memory independently and solve problems in a way that has previously been the exclusive domain of what humans call "thinking".

Palin-Apocalypse TIMESTAMP: Late 2008 INFOSOURCE: //_root Humans careen towards extinction ala the McCain Palin Bush Express to Hell. Reports are in that New York and Los Angeles were hit for sure. Unconfirmed reports from Boston, Denver and Seattle. CENCOM appears to be off line. Automated Emergency Broadcast Transmission. IN WAKE OF THE NUCLEAR ATTACK This is the Wartime Broadcasting Service. This country has been attacked with nuclear weapons. Communications have been severely disrupted, and the number of casualties and the extent of the damage are not yet known. We shall bring you further information as soon as possible. Meanwhile, stay tuned to this wavelength, stay calm and stay in your own homes. Remember there is nothing to be gained by trying to get away. By leaving your homes you could be exposing yourselves to greater danger. If you leave, you may find yourself without food, without water, without accommodation and without protection. Radioactive fall-out, which follows a nuclear explosion, is many times more dangerous if you are directly exposed to it in the open. Roofs and walls offer substantial protection. The safest place is indoors. Make sure gas and other fuel supplies are turned off and that all fires are extinguished. If mains water is available, this can be used for fire-fighting. You should also refill all your containers for drinking water after the fires have been put out, because the mains water supply may not be available for very long. Water must not be used for flushing lavatories: until you are told that lavatories may be used again, other toilet arrangements must be made. Use your water only for essential drinking and cooking purposes. Water means life. Don't waste it. Make your food stocks last: ration your supply, because it may have to last for 14 days or more. If you have fresh food in the house, use this first to avoid wasting it: food in tins will keep. If you live in an area where a fall-out warning has been given, stay in your fall-out room until you are told it is safe to come out. When the immediate danger has passed the sirens will sound a steady note. The "all clear" message will also be given on this wavelength. If you leave the fall-out room to go to the lavatory or replenish food or water supplies, do not remain outside the room for a minute longer than is necessary. Do not, in any circumstances, go outside the house. Radioactive fall-out can kill. You cannot see it or feel it, but it is there. If you go outside, you will bring danger to your family and you may die. Stay in your fall-out room until you are told it is safe to come out or you hear the "all clear" on the sirens. Here are the main points again: Stay in your own homes, and if you live in an area where a fall-out warning has been given stay in your fall-out room, until you are told it is safe to come out. The message that the immediate danger has passed will be given by the sirens and repeated on this wavelength. Make sure that the gas and all fuel supplies are turned off and that all fires are extinguished. Water must be rationed, and used only for essential drinking and cooking purposes. It must not be used for flushing lavatories. Ration your food supply: it may have to last for 14 days or more. We shall repeat this broadcast in two hours' time. Stay tuned to this interband wavelength, but switch your inter radios off now to save your batteries until we come on the lair again. That is the end of this broadcast.
