Does the new religion raise?
Yesterday I came across the mention of Dataism and decided to dig a little around it. And you know, it does not honour either gods or people. It worships data.
Dataism proclaims that the universe consists of data streams and that the value of any phenomenon or entity is determined by its contribution to data processing. You may think this is the opinion of a group of eccentric originals, but in fact, this view already prevails in the scientific establishment.
Dataism was born from the explosive fusion of two scientific tidal waves. On the one hand, Charles Darwin published The Origin of Species 150 years ago, and natural sciences began to look at organisms as biochemical algorithms. On the other hand, eight decades after Alan Turing formulated the idea of a Turing machine, computer specialists learned how to develop increasingly complex electronic algorithms.
Dataism combines both, indicating that biochemical and electronic algorithms are subject to the same mathematical laws. Thus, Dataism breaks down the barrier between animals and machines and predicts that electronic algorithms will eventually decode and surpass biochemical algorithms.
Are you a dataist?

1 年I think it's same as in our profession, more the Surgeon publishes his work more renowned he/ she becomes. But the data here you are talking about is Different. Humanity has been like this , more the data someone had more power they exerted. Yesterday i was reading about an Article where they mentioned that the next empires are not usa, china or Russia . Rather they are Google, wechat, yandex, Facebook , Microsoft. Yes that can be the new religion.
