hard Feynman provide a model for us particularly because each work provides a different access point "according to the way a person has already met Feynman". Also, Feynman was a great friend of Minsky and they shared a view of the world: that iconclastic genius is commonsense and fun. Some books that p

was the time that Hillis asked Nobel-prize winning physicist Richard Feynman to tip him off about any smart scientists Thinking Machines might hire. Feynman, pushing 60, volunteered himself and spent his summer vacations for the next ten years with Hillis and his team.1?! When it came time to test the fir

ons of a human mind,” Hillis wrote at the start of his PhD thesis a few years later. “A thinking machine.”188 What Hillis and others like his mentor Marvin Minsky, realized was that the human brain works differently than machine logic. Life, after all, is not a series of linear math problems. (Much as we might
