“I never yelled at my players much. That would have been artificial stimulation, which doesn't last very long. I think it's like love and passion. Passion won't last as long as love. When you are dependent on passion, you need more and more of it to make it work. It's the same with yelling.” ThinkingNeedsLongHas BeensMotivationalLastsPassionPlayerDependentWorking ItArtificialYellingLike LoveStimulationLove And Passion Author:John Wooden
“Several large, artificial constructions are approaching us, ZORAC announced after a short pause. The designs are not familiar, but they are obviously the products of intelligence.

Apart from the unknowns, everything is obvious.” MeanHas BeensFormPurposeDesignProductsHumorousObviousFamiliarConstructionArtificialPausesImplications Book:The Two Worlds Source: The Two Worlds
“Thus those reformers, who look for a remedy by creating artificial carrying-costs for the money through the device of requiring legal-tender currency to be periodically stamped at a prescribed cost in order to retain its quality as money, or in analogous ways, have been on the right track; and the practical value of their proposals deserves consideration.” WayLooksHas BeensValuesOrderQualityCostCreatingDeserveTrackPracticalsConsiderationDevicesArtificialRemedyCurrencyProposalReformersRight Track Author:John Maynard Keynes
“In the field of Artificial Intelligence there is no more iconic and controversial milestone than the Turing Test, when a computer convinces a sufficient number of interrogators into believing that it is not a machine but rather is a human. It is fitting that such an important landmark has been reached at the Royal Society in London, the home of British Science and the scene of many great advances in human understanding over the centuries. This milestone will go down in history as one of the most exciting.” BelieveHumansHas BeensImportantHomeUnderstandingNumbersCenturyFieldsSceneComputerTestsMachinesExcitingBritishLondonSufficientConvinceArtificial IntelligenceArtificialRoyalControversialFittingIconicMilestoneLandmarks Author:Kevin Warwick
