A crash course on AI

Update 1: a collection of AI "art" on Flickr 

Update 2: a French look into the future of AI

- new: incl. an AI-driven comic

Update 3: added a note on AI Summaries

Update 4: a manifesto of sorts closes this brief

Ongoing: add items of interest under "AI-ding Tool"

New twist: look for AI-assisted story-telling below

New blog header: Web maps & AI for the public good

Have I mentionned that AI will need skilled writers more than skilled coders? Forbes wrote here about a US efforts in that regard. The one thing AI won't replace,  acc. to the starred "AI-ding Tool" example below is curiosity:  it mirrors Steve Jobs' "stay hungry, stay foolish" at Stanford 2005 Commencement Address here.

This post follows on my last AI trial: a long conversation here and a short one here; let's see more updates, shall we?

Science, Science Fiction, and AI

This essay was improved using Lia27 app here (see more on AI assisting in writing here, as well as author Rie Qudan in next post here).

A journey linking the "three arts" of the 21st century: let's try to expand the mind and thought at a human speed and depth in this world of "fast food", "fake news" and "brain rot"; the current media trend which, contrary to Montaigne (Wikipedia), makes a head well-filled rather than a head well-made! "Brain rot is a term used to describe the perceived negative cognitive and emotional effects of excessive consumption of low-quality or unchallenging online content leading to reduced attention spans, impaired critical thinking, and mental fatigue." The following demonstrates how a ''head well made'' is of paramount importance:

Science is also demonstrating forward thinking. As such, Andras Kovacs, Jussi Lindgren, and Jukka Liukkonen have proposed a way to unify the theories of gravitation and electromagnetism into a unified field theory. Very roughly speaking, light and gravity are four-dimensional waves in space-time, but light is compressed back and forth, and gravity is compressed up and down. Is it one step towards "Einstein's dream of a unified field theory accomplished"? (Phys.org)
