Abstract
A discussion is presented on the issues of why the analysis of the limits in knowledge representation and world comprehension is so important in the electronic information age and how and why the ancient basic problems of philosophy are returning at a new level. The problems are divided into three related areas: uncertainty, logic, and languages, which all direct towards the complexity issue. The logic theme is discussed in more detail. Some approaches are indicated
