The AI complexity paradox: More productivity, more responsibilities

peepo/Getty Images Does artificial intelligence (AI) make working life easier or complicated? Experts suggest the answer depends on the context. In a recent IDC-hosted interview, SIAC CEO Toni Townes-Whitley described AI as the ultimate weapon against system complexity, noting that her company is employing AI to reduce tech complexity in some of the most complex technology environments on the planet -- within the US Department of Defense.

Primitive Kolmogorov complexity is computable

/ 5 min read This post is mostly AI generated, of course with significant guidance, feedback, iteration and some edits from me. There was little for me to gain writing this myself, but I felt it needed to be written down regardless. Kolmogorov complexity and Solomonoff's theory of inductive inference offer formal, theoretical solutions to measuring complexity and forming predictions. However, both are uncomputable, a fact that is often treated as having significant implications in computabilit

Meta-analysis of three different notions of software complexity

A meta-analysis of three different notions of software complexity I want to discuss three different notions of software complexity: Rich Hickey’s notion of complexity, as explained in his talk Simple Made Easy. John Ousterhout’s notion of complexity, as explained in his book A Philosophy of Software Design. Zach Tellman’s notion of complexity, as explained in his newsletter Explaining Software Design. I’ve picked these three because I’ve found them to be at least somewhat coherent, and the
