Prof. Ramanujam is a theoretical computer scientist currently teach in IMSC, Chennai. Here are the snippets of my talk with him.


- Human needs are subjective.
- Wants and needs are different.
- Metadata in my dataset becomes very important. Relationship between metadata and data could reveal new answers.
- Reverse engineer. Ask the questions you’d ask the dataset before you think about the dataset.
- How do you remain objective?
- Cognitive need for patterns. Kid experiment where a group of kids randomises objects and other group is told to find pattern although there exists none. Patterns are constructed.
- Different logics systems.
- Temporal logic system. Human wants have no definitive end. An infinite loop for more.
- Rule based societies vs context based societies. Can you compute a society?
- Logic of societies.
- Watch Looking for logic in social practice by R Ramanujam.
