Have come across some best & famous in my work before. 2. Turing Test. We can say Siri has passed the Turing test. Turing test is a famous term in A.I. invented in 1950s, a “passing machine" means people can’t distinguish, is it a machine or a human at all, in environment comparable to chat rooms or SMS. There is an annual competition on this Turing Test for programmers. A.I. topics, include Decision Trees, FSM (Finite State Machine), Fuzzy Logic, Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Genetic Programming/Algorithm (GP/GA), Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, and many others. Many of the times, claim-to-be-AI product are actually not AI, but just as marketing slogan (e.g. Home Appliance).

Steve Jobs 名言 – 一些較少人寫的
看了幾天別人寫 SJ，很多都是一眼就知道是外行人。:P 語錄很多只 quote 2005 Stanford。其實何只？ 寫一些精采的。他對 I.T. / Project Manager / User Experience 有很獨到的見解。 One more thing….. (the most famous phrase in all his presentations) If, for some reason, we make some big mistake and IBM wins, my personal feeling is that we are going to enter a computer Dark Ages for about twenty years. (1987) Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world? (To John Sculley, later become Apple CEO, 1983) You can’t just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they’ll want something new. (1989) The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste. They have absolutely no taste. And I don’t mean that in a small way, I mean that in a big way, in the sense that they don’t think of original ideas, and they don’t bring much culture into their products. (1996） people don’t know what they want until you show it to them. (1998) Stay hungry, stay foolish. (re-quote, 2005 – Stanford) Good artists copy; great artists steal. (re-quote, his favorites) 我的最愛是這一句，也正是我2010-11上半年事業轉型的原因： Why join the Navy, if you can be a pirate? (1982) ———————————– Reference: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs
“約伯"，現代人稱為 “喬布斯" :D
SJ 安息，於是常聽到旁人討論。 卻發覺一個現象。 不同人對他不同的稱呼，可認識這個人 叫 “喬布斯" 的，恐怕只認識 iPhone 和 iPad，並分不出 MBA 和 MBP 有什麼分別。（或者連這是什麼也不知道） 叫 “Steve Jobs" 的，應是有基本理解。 叫 “Steves"，有很多蘋果 user 的朋友。 叫 “教主"，一定有很多蘋果Product，或者研究他或Apple很多，或很尊敬他。 叫 “Pirate"，認識很久。 叫 “SJ"，是知道 why he matters. 但未必是 hardcore user 叫 “S"，恐怕是與蘋果同生共死的 hardcore user / staff。 還有一個 — 叫 “賈伯斯" 的，是台灣人。 喬布斯是譯名，譯自 “Jobs"。 妙在，聖經中有個人物也叫 Job – 約伯（智慧文學）。 按常理，Jobs 就是以 Job 為姓氏的衍生，像 Williams (e.g. Robert Williams), Roberts (e.g. Julia Roberts) “約伯"，現代人稱為 “喬布斯" 😀
Macintosh is a typo
SJ 很多人都認識，Apple i-series 產品也深入香港。 但是，Apple 的個人電腦品牌 – “Macintosh" 的名稱來源，你知道否？ Macintosh 和 Google 一樣，都是一個 typo. 🙂 Macintosh，本來應為 McIntosh (without “a"). 是一種蘋果品種。 (p.s. Google，本來應為Googol，字義是10 power 100）
