Interface

Published March 18, 2022

I was saying in a previous entry that both animals and artificial devices have a body and a head. This distinction body/head is found not only in artificial and natural devices (which is what animals are) but also in the space surrounding us. Of course you can`t say space has a body and a head a proper labeling would be ‘body’ and ‘interface’. Physically speaking as in the case of animals the space body is larger than the space interface. If we take an example, lets say a farm, the farm body would be made by the fields were various plants (cultures) grow. The space interface would be the shelter were the machines that are used to work the field are kept overnight, when they are not on the field, the storage buildings for various farm products, the barns etc. All these field work related buildings (the farm headquarters) are usually found in the same place.

The space interface is the place from where we humans direct the change in the environment. In an urban area the offices are the interface from where we control the change in the rest of the environment.

Are you are putting your musings into code?

I`m still tinkering my way into building a conventional RTS (with classical AI principles). I have some understanding on how things show in a classical approach so I can already see how AI resembling/closer to human thinking will be different.
