I would need to spend a day in Cambridge libraries to reverify some exact dates but my understanding 3 male generations on both sides of my family tree- all went to corpus christi Cambridge- Duncan would have been there around 1910; I know that cos he was aiming to get a phd at Heidelberg in divinty (generation od macraes being free church missionaries) when world war 1 broke- being on of relative few young Brits speaking german he became minor spy and spent rest of his working life in embassies mainly as lead intel searchers on the bads of hitler and stalin; my dad norman was home schooled in embassies like stalins moscow ,where he first met drucker , until boarded at mill hill, stsrring at corpus 1942? only to become teen navigator alled bomber command Burma campaign ; surviving he returned to corpus married his best best friend's sistrer whose dad was writing up legalese of Indua;s independence- the kemps had spent generations as pharmacists (bombay kemps corner) and nurses before Kenneth became bar of london barrister and bombay chief justice for 20 years mediating Mahatmna Gandhi; Economist editor Geoffrey Crowrher hired dad for a special project- Crowr=ther had just completed centenary biogrsapghy of Economist v1843-1943; he concluded as system designer economists could not keep up with engineers so he arranged that von neumann pre-train future journalism purposed around Smithian Economic goals and the NET' Neumann Einstein Turing)s gits of brainworkers machines
so here are a few other notes from our diaries - sorry if we leap back and forth on the giant snakes and ladders gameboard that human race since 1900 seems to have been flatlanded on 9more fomrally you can see 2025report diaries published since 1983 or dads normanmacrae.net articles in the economist or his shared notes with von neumann family from 1951 and indeed John's biographer ;all errors are mine - you can correct or question me aqt chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk +1 240 316 8157 -if you send a joyful message pls tell me wherher you want to be quoted ot if chatham riles app. I am just a Diaspora Scot- probably the most party politivcal clueless person but I have seen so much data especially across Asia- what fun it would be to deep data LLM ...)
CURRENT Idea of a group AI-Cambridge in America or some such is urgent
My family's main connections over 40 years linkin Japan good and Hong Kong and Singapore as well as Bangladesh so how do i find out with this is synergetic with joe white's purpose and is there any way to work out which Cambridge in america locations may wanted to linkin these mapping exercises
Bonus points the person at national science foundation in charge of the pilot of the Nairr is very friendly with an AI professor at judge business school! And of course Joe’s wife Wendy Tan White from Myanmar – nearly million refugees there also depend on yunus succeeding. At google Tan White is ultimately responsible for autonomous engines impacts which (privately) is best in her safe hands
