It is not wise to store much private information on the servers of a corporation which is interested in making a profit from the data you inadvertently give them. Furthermore, it is not a good idea to store public information on a limited network. If you will share something, it is much better to share it through your own website and blog. You can always share your blog on facebook (nicely rhymes with “fahise”-book in Turkish) for increased viewing among your peers. However, a website will provide much better exposure through multiple such social networks and search engines. I realized that I had to keep all of my posts private on facebook, so my blog entries do not show up anywhere except on my dear “friends'” computers. That is not a very wise thing to do either. What is the point of writing anything substantial on facebook if that is the case? Then, appear less on facebook, and make an appearance on the web if you like sharing so much, share it with everybody, or nobody.

Eray Özkural has obtained his PhD in computer engineering from Bilkent University, Ankara. He has a deep and long-running interest in human-level AI. His name appears in the acknowledgements of Marvin Minsky's The Emotion Machine. He has collaborated briefly with the founder of algorithmic information theory Ray Solomonoff, and in response to a challenge he posed, invented Heuristic Algorithmic Memory, which is a long-term memory design for general-purpose machine learning. Some other researchers have been inspired by HAM and call the approach "Bayesian Program Learning". He has designed a next-generation general-purpose machine learning architecture. He is the recipient of 2015 Kurzweil Best AGI Idea Award for his theoretical contributions to universal induction. He has previously invented an FPGA virtualization scheme for Global Supercomputing, Inc. which was internationally patented. He has also proposed a cryptocurrency called Cypher, and an energy based currency which can drive green energy proliferation. You may find his blog at http://log.examachine.net and some of his free software projects at https://github.com/examachine/.
