Alexander S King

I'm an database programmer and data scientist living on the West Coast, with a Ph.D in Computational Intelligence (i.e. watered down A.I ), and I specialize in pattern recognition, optimization and forecasting. You can best describe me as a philosopher wanna-be.

I have a deep interest in philosophy in general and philosophy of science and philosophy of mind in particular (AI geek - duh!). I speak 4 languages fluently (English, Arabic, French and Japanese) and play 3 instruments (Piano, Guitar and Bass).
