Are the ancient spirals, knots, glyphs, and yantras of cultures like the Kalinago, Celtic, Mayan, and Hindu simply decorative art, or do they hold a deeper secret? This inspirational philosophical exploration posits that these enduring symbols are not mere relics of the past but sophisticated, encoded systems of knowledge—proto-languages of pattern and connection that resonate with the challenges and possibilities of the modern age. The book delves into how these ancient visual grammars might prefigure contemporary concepts in data science, offer profound insights into the ethical dilemmas of artificial intelligence, and illuminate the mysteries of consciousness itself. Appealing to tech futurists, philosophers, spiritual seekers, and digital artists alike, "Symbolic Intelligence" invites readers on a captivating journey across time and culture. It explores the potential for a 'pattern language' embedded in antiquity to inform our understanding of complex systems, human perception, and the very nature of reality in the digital age. Discover how the wisdom of the ancients, etched in stone and woven into tradition, might provide a vital blueprint for navigating the future of technology and consciousness.
