The hierarchy of concepts allows the computer to learn complicated concepts by building them out of simpler ones a graph of these hierarchies would be many layers deep. Because the computer gathers knowledge from experience, there is no need for a human computer operator to formally specify all the knowledge that the computer needs.

He stayed in Paris for a while because he wanted to write "the great novel", but he only managed to write the title. He eventually went on to work as a messenger boy for the Field magazine. On leaving school he wanted to become a journalist but didn't have the required qualifications. At school, he gained 'O'-levels in English Language and English Literature and enjoyed reading, particularly Ernest Hemingway. He was born William Francis Nighy on Decemin Caterham, Surrey, England, to Catherine Josephine (Whittaker), a psychiatric nurse from Glasgow, and Alfred Martin Nighy, who was English-born and managed a garage in Croydon. Bill Nighy is an award-winning British character actor. ![]() ![]() “Great.” I sighed, putting the ants and logs on a plate in the middle of the kitchen table. “Look!” Janie held her ponytail up to me, showing me a wad of gum so big I couldn’t imagine how anyone even got it in their mouth in the first place. Henry, almost ten, was always doing something to annoy his older sister. “Henry did what?” I licked peanut butter off the knife and slid it into the sink. “Henry did it!” Janie, who was eleven, blond and blue-eyed like her mother, stomped into the kitchen where I was making their after school snack-“ants on a log.” They were just celery sticks spread with peanut butter, raisins dotted on top, and looked more like turds on sticks to me, but whatever. And their kids were great, which is something I couldn’t say about the three families I’d played nanny to before them. They were my favorite people in the world. I’d been a nanny for five years and had gone through three families, when I finally found the perfect job. Not that I advertised that fact during interviews. Sometimes I thought a monkey could do my job. Basically, I needed to know how to keep kids alive. ![]() ![]() Being a nanny required that I know how to cook and how to do CPR. I became a nanny because I hated school, anything involving retail, and working in fast food. I wasn’t one of those girls who started babysitting when I was ten and fell in love with children and decided to spend the rest of my life playing Mary Poppins. I didn’t become a nanny because I loved kids. ![]() |
