Fuzzy LogicAIComputingScience
Dr. Bart Kosko is a professor of electrical engineering at USC and an early contributor to fuzzy logic theory, which revolutionized artificial intelligence and computing by embracing degrees of truth rather than rigid binary logic. On Art Bell's programs, he explained how fuzzy thinking underlies everything from washing machines to stock markets in his book Fuzzy Thinking.

Terrorism & Nanotechnology
Art Bell welcomes Professor Bart Kosko, electrical engineer at the University of Southern California, to discuss whether the threat of terrorism has been grossly overestimated. Kosko argues that three years without a major attack on U.S. soil represents significant negative evidence, and that resources diverted to c...Jun 17, 2007 · 2h 37m
UFO Update - James Gilliland | Noise, Law, and Technology - Dr. Bart Kosko
with James Gilliland
Art Bell welcomes James Gilliland for a UFO update from his ranch in Washington state, where more than 4,000 witnesses have now reported sightings of unexplained aerial objects. Gilliland describes face-to-face encounters with beings he identifies as Pleiadian, portraying them as genetically refined, telepathic, and...Aug 30, 2009 · 2h 36m
Artificial Intelligence
Art Bell sits down with Bart Kosko, professor of electrical engineering at USC and author of multiple books on fuzzy logic and neural networks, to explore the current state and future of artificial intelligence. The conversation ranges from nanotechnology and carbon nanotubes to the fundamental question of whether m...
