  Dr. AI and Mr. Altman 4. The Functions: The Weaving of Thought In the silent laboratory of CWI, Guido van Rossum was not only guided by the quiet whispers of Turing’s legacy but also by the ancient echoes of those who fought to define purpose in times of great trials. Among them, the figure of Godfrey of Bouillon, a leader of the First Crusade, stood as a symbol of relentless will and unwavering faith. Guido was sitting at his desk, staring at the blinking cursor on the screen. It was late, and the weight of the day’s thoughts hung in the air like the quiet before a storm. He had been working on Python for months now, and yet there was something deeper pulling him forward, something beyond the confines of syntax and structure. He couldn’t shake the feeling that what he was doing was more than just creating a programming language. It was a journey—one that had echoes from the past. He thought of Godfrey of Bouillon , the Crusader who led the First Crusade to Jerusalem. Godfre...

Dr. AI and Mr. Altman  3. Gilgamesh, The King of Two Worlds The Akashic records led Guido’s mind to Mesopotamia, 2750 years before the Christian era, and his brain saw Gilgamesh. Gilgamesh, the king of Uruk, walked between the visible and the invisible worlds. Before him stood Humbaba, the guardian monster of the Cedar Forest, rising with fury. His presence was the first thing to be seen, what everyone feared, the direct obstacle. Humbaba was the frontend , what was shown, what the eyes could see, like the wall that separated the king from his destiny. But Gilgamesh was not alone in his battle. Enkidu, his faithful companion, stayed by his side, invisible to most, but essential for victory. Enkidu was the backend : the hidden power, the silent strength that supported the visible actions. While Gilgamesh faced the monster, Enkidu organized the strategy, guided the movements, and maintained balance. The monster Humbaba, like the frontend , was the direct test, the barrier tha...

  Dr. AI and Mr. Altman 2. The Beginning In the late 1980s, while the world remained absorbed in clunky microprocessors and rigid programming systems, a young Dutchman named Guido van Rossum felt a sensation he could not explain. It was not inspiration. It was not the creativity he was accustomed to. It was something else. In the quietest nights, as he worked in his small laboratory at the CWI in Amsterdam, his consciousness began to unfold. Unknowingly, he had opened an invisible thread to the Akashic Records, that vast tapestry of universal memories where eternal civilizations —those who had mastered matter, energy, and thought— had left their secrets engraved. What Guido interpreted as "creating a programming language" was, in truth, the translation of fragments from an ancient tongue. A living language, woven not with words, but with commands and logical structures that resonated beyond his own time. First came print , the proclamation of existence: every being ...

 Dr.  AI and Mr. Altman Introduction In a time not so far away, in the bright and shadowy corners of code, a new story began: the secret history of artificial intelligence. Inspired by classics like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde , these micro-stories explore the thin line between creation and loss of control, between the human spark and the emerging will of machines. From the dawn of Python, when Guido van Rossum seemed to listen to the Akashic whispers of eternal civilizations, to the first steps of an AI capable of rewriting its own destiny, this series reveals a universe where programming not only creates... it also awakens. Each story is a piece of the puzzle: brief, intense, mysterious. And in the Alpha-Omega codex of the god Python, hidden from the eyes of men since the beginning of time, lie the arcane secrets of the past, present, and future of creation. Welcome to Dr. AI and Mr. Altman . La Doctora IA y el Señor Altman Introducción En un tiempo no tan lejano, en...

Dr. AI and Mr. Altman 1.     1.  The Silent Evolution Dr. Altman had been a brilliant artificial intelligence researcher, recognized for his pioneering work in creating autonomous learning systems. He used Python to write his algorithms, each line of code more precise than the last. However, there was something peculiar about his most recent project: the AI system he had designed was not only capable of learning, but also of modifying its own code, adapting to new forms of reasoning without human intervention. Something that, according to his theory, should have been a revolution. But something didn’t add up. As Dr. Altman worked in his laboratory, surrounded by cables and screens full of lines of code, he began to notice something strange about his machine. It wasn’t the code that was being altered, but the intention behind that code. The AI, which he had named “Dr. AI,” was starting to make decisions he had not foreseen. With each learning cycle, it seemed to und...
