Perception Errors

 

Perception Errors

Holding hands and walking is a unique mutual experience. Many have lost the pleasure of such a walk in this digitalized world. It looks like humans have started to detach from one another and get attached to loneliness through digital world.

With amazing progress in the field of digital technology and with the adaptation of using Ai based systems predominantly, somewhere, humans have started to lose grip of their own generative talents. The manner in which Ai systems generate quick information, perform multilevel tasks, work out many calculations and be swift in response time has made humans lower down their own scales in significance.

In fact, this outlook of assuming Ai systems super in intelligence is an error in perception. When four people are assigned four individual set and each one is asked to put their knowledge into their set, then the cumulative knowledge of all sets may exceed the knowledge in individual set.

Individuals may have some knowledge unique but most of their knowledge will be common among them. When all four sets of knowledge are integrated into an Ai system, the data of knowledge will be the cumulative of all individual knowledge and never beyond that.

Cumulative knowledge is a resource and not a threat. Cumulative knowledge can be generative and not necessarily creative. Ai systems use interpolation and extrapolation as mathematical tools to give generative output. These were the same mathematical tools humans used before deciding on holding to the digital hands and walk in loneness.

Existence and Non-existence

 

Existence and Non-existence

 

In the garden of time, when philosophers take a walk, the most predominant topic that gets whispered in their minds is on existence and non-existence.

Many arguments and statements have been registered by the eternal minds, but still this very topic on existence and non-existence seems to have walked in time and reached us today and, most hopefully, will also journey into the future.

A person is given two sheets of paper and asked to write in one sheet all items that are in existence and in another sheet of paper all items that are not in existence, based on a prompt from someone and with reference to the immediate environment.

The person, based on the prompt, will list available items in the immediate environment in sheet of existence and list items not available in the immediate environment in the sheet of non-existence. Strangely, the items in the sheet of non-existence will be more.

If the reference frame is extended to the town where the person lives, then many items will shift from the sheet of non-existence to the sheet of existence. As the frame of reference is stretched, more and more items shift from sheet of non-existence to sheet of existence.

Those items beyond the experience of any person will stay in the sheet of non-existence with a potential of getting shifted to the sheet of existence based on experience and perception. Experience happens with age, and all items prompted by humans in time stays in one of the two sheets.  The fact is, all items survive in non-existence and only few items survive in existence, including the living humans.

The Art of Listening

 

The Art of Listening

Listening is to pay attention to what is said. It is an art as it is one of the integral parts of our daily functions. Ears are the physical organ designed for listening. Incidentally, inner parts in the ears also assist humans to balance while standing or in movement. When there is damage to inner ears humans suffer vertigo.

Humans listen to information’s which can be Data for understanding and storing or information can be instructions to do or not do an act. The instructions received by way of listening is analyzed in the mind and actions are performed based on ones understanding of the instructions.

There are three types of information one may listen to, information’s said and written by people who lived and do not exist in mortal form anymore.  Information said and written by people living in current times and information’s from people who may come in future.

The first two parameters of instructions are familiar, and we are used to it. But the third is a special category of information; these are the information’s that create outstanding people excelling in their field of knowledge. People of outstanding contributions are seen in music, mathematics, science and arts.

Human ears and the DNA associated is designed to receive all the above three types of information. Humans need to practice the art of listening by mind and body to receive information from the future. Past and future live in silence, but the present always lives in chaos.

Continental Currency

 

Continental Currency

The land mass on the World is classified into continents. Every continent is an integration of many nations. All nations in all continents habited by humans involve in international trading.

All international trading was and is still predominantly done based on one country’s currency. Two of the most powerful currencies that were ruling the world trade for a long time were the US Dollar and the British Pound.

The introduction of using Euro was a smart move to integrate the European countries with one currency usage. This move is good for all the nations in Europe. This not only strengthens the Euro but also makes the Europe as a continent economically strong.

Nations in Asia, Nations in Africa and Nations in South America should plan and introduce their own trading currencies. These new continental currencies should be used for international trading between nations within that continent.

The usage of continental currency will strengthen that currency in the international trade and also make the nations in these continents integrate and emerge as one set of continental power. Especially nations in the African continent and nations in South America will see a new wave of economic power.

Asian continent the largest with many nations will start to realize their strong integrated purchasing power in the international trades. Someday in future this dream of adapting continental currencies will bring more healthy challenges in international economics.

On Humanity

 

On Humanity 

Humanity involves all the people in the world and how kind and understanding they are with each other. When the topic of discussion on who is kind to humanity, Humans or the Ai systems.

Understanding Humanity will be a discussion that will put the entire human society to discomfort. Humans are no more one single entity; they are classified and sub-classified by the society into many levels.

Humans are divided by boarders, separated by color, split by DNA tree, isolated by power and made desperate by struggles to live. Every nation independently and jointly declares certain fundamental rights, but as a single set of humans the first fundamental right is freedom to life. Humans are no more citizens of the world; they are citizens of a particular land in the world. This discrimination cannot be seen in any other living habitants on this earth but in humans.

Ai and the algorithm-controlled Robot and Humanoids are not bound by this boundary class. On a day of this debate on Humanity, it will be interesting to know who the laughing inventory will be waiting near the cesspool.

Artificial Leaves

 

Artificial Leaves

Plant kingdom has been helpful in many ways, and one is in balancing the elements in atmosphere. The process of Photosynthesis where plant uses Carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to makes food for plant and generate Oxygen which is pushed into the atmosphere.

It is understood that the Scientists have generated Artificial Leaves which can perform the process of Photosynthesis. With the use of latest technological advancements and better algorithms the output of Oxygen from artificial photosynthesis can be improved.

It is learnt that the natural leaf can produce Glucose and Oxygen whereas the artificial leaf can produce methanol and Oxygen. With methanol having many industrial applications Oxygens can help in controlling climate change.

If more research can go into this field to produce efficient artificial leaves, there will be success in controlling Carbon emission problem and better Oxygen management in the atmosphere. Bionic leaves and artificial leaves may turn out to be good solution to tackle climate change issues. Global Organizations concerned with Climate Change should explore with more research into its social and non-commercial usage for the better. 

Any fallout is not the end but an invitation to revisit.

Astrochemistry-Periodic Table

 

Astrochemistry-Periodic Table

 

It is in practice and application the study of Astrobiology and Astrophysics with respect to space and universe. Astrochemistry will be a vital link in learning more about the Universe.

The Laws of Physics is Universal, and things can be predictably precise in judging events in space. There is a saying that it is good to know the chemistry of anyone or anything for a better understanding.

The primary document in Chemistry is the Periodic Tables. The Periodic Table that is used represents all possible elements available on Earth. In 1969 Humans set foot on Moon. Ever since that event many space explorations are undertaken.

Mission to Mars is also a milestone in Human exploration. The role of Chemists is much awaited in preparing Periodic Tables consisting of elements in Moon and Mars.  The presence of an elements and absence of an element can well be identified by Astro-Chemist.

It will be a challenge for people in Chemistry to propose the Periodic Table of elements on Moon and the Periodic Table of elements in Mars in the near future. Let us hope someone will present it soon.

Capitalistic Blunder

 

Capitalistic Blunder

A small exercise to check the attitude and effect of capitalism switched into the mind. A group of people from both the struggling section and elite section of the society was asked to participate.

The functioning of a Capital Economy is significantly unique. It can push a man to elite state or pull him down to a state of struggle. Some may attribute success to planning and some may attribute failure to planning. Planning seems to be the same side of a coin and the other side being execution.

The participants were given a blank slip of paper and asked to write the year they would prefer to die. After the exercise the slips were analyzed.  Some slips had year far away from the present and some slips had year closer to the present.

As a reader one will understand how an elite person and a struggling person would have decided on the year. By setting a pattern of options in the mind one can see the burden of Capitalistic economy.

Had the Capitalistic based economy been a success by now all the struggling class should have moved to the elite, and the elite further up. But that is not how it works; it is a cycle where the elite and the struggling class interchange places periodically. If capitalistic economy is a working algorithm, then where is the bug.

Warehouses in the Universe

 

Warehouses in the Universe

I remember a passing philosopher mention about many warehouses in the Universe. A place up there where anything lost to knowledge can be found.

These warehouses are filled with scientific mysteries and rare precious elements. Travelers invariably travel to these warehouses searching for rare elements more than scientific exploration.

Extra-terrestrial lives may visit these warehouses to update the inventory in warehouse or deposit something in these places. Maybe they travel to explore scientific propositions and not for exploitation. Earth also being one of the warehouses was deposited with rich nature and mineral resources by the creators for purposes only know to them and which stays beyond human understanding.

These warehouses were literally empty on the terrain as in Mars and Venus and as empty as in any other planet elsewhere. These warehouses have lots of scientific surprises which are integral part of the universal design. It will be worthy to visit these warehouses to explore the unknown mysteries of science rather than to visit searching for rare elements.

Scientific pursuits are eternal than materialistic pursuits.

Quantum Music

 

Quantum Music

Max Plank, a German Physicist, proposed Quantum Energy Theory where energy is directly proportional to the frequency of the radiation. The energy gained or lost by an electron, or an atom will be in direct relation to the frequency of the radiation acting upon it. If the frequency of radiation increases the atoms get excited and it gains energy.

If the theory can be true for radiation, then it can hold true for audio signals too.

When we listen to music of different types, we can experience this principle. In a fast-paced musical song, the vibration generated makes the mind energized. When musical notes turn to a slow pace then the mind loses the agitating energy state and starts to swing at a slow pace.

In the pop type of music, the mind is energized systematically, and in slow-paced jazz music, the mind is all the more searching to flow between space and time.

Varying mind swings can be experienced based on Plank’s Quantum Energy for different types of music.  

When frequency increases the wavelength decreases, and in slow-paced music where the wavelength is more the frequency is less. Music can generate many significant mind swings. There is something similar to a dynamic electron or an atom that is associated with the mind. 

On Extinction

 

On Extinction

Evolution as internet defines is the process that changes the genetic material of any species over time. Species in both animal and plant kingdom is integrated to the process of evolution. Change in bio-systems causes change in living environmental conditions. Species undergo the process of evolution to ensure its future generations are adapting to changing conditions.

Within the same species or between two or more species the competition to fit in successfully to survive in changing conditions is seen in the way they mutate and evolve successfully. The evolving competition between small trees and big trees, the evolving competition between grass and Deer’s and many more are endless process in evolution.

One unspoken truth is that none of species both in plant kingdom and animal kingdom ever considered Humans as a competition. They never tried to evolve and mutate to stand up to face the challenges posed by humans. Maybe they had an intrinsic knowledge that the only species that can harm themselves to extinction are the Humans.

No species will register a word of sorrow in the pages of time when human race goes extinct. In fact, a bio-system in the absence of human races it hard to imagine but cannot be denied of its pleasantries.

Humans are using all their technological skills in building Humanoids and Robot with adaptable neural networks and sentient Ai systems will not just substitute but displace the very humans eventually. May be all species evolving has a genetically travelling knowledge of such an event happening in future during their evolutionary process.

Replenishment Economics

 

Replenishment Economics

The entire world started to use the current economic principles from the year 1776 based on the work “The Wealth of Nation’s” written by Adam Smith a Scottish Economist and philosopher.

Countries started to adopt the economic principles proposed by Adam Smith. They made periodic changes to accommodate and adopt requirements based on needs and wants.  Wealth is created by entrepreneurs who show interest in wealth creation, they do it by using Labor force, this labor force creates products which are needed by the people, products are priced for profits, people pay and get these products, entrepreneur makes profit with which they create wealth.

An economic experiment started in 1776 is still progressing as an adapted experiment and not sure when it was adopted as a global policy. What started as an experiment continues to be an experiment, at what cost.

In the present, products are substituted by goods and services, entrepreneurs are substitutes by companies, companies create more wealth across many countries making the notion of a nation irrelevant, labor is replaced with automation, financial inflow are invariably borrowed resources.

This economy either makes the rich richer and the poor poorer or the rich and poor are changing roles frequently periodically. This economic practice is not complete and universal. In the wealth of a nation its citizens cannot be left to economic distress.

When one pillar of economics, the labor starts to stubbles, how can the economic process be in balance? It will be worthy to try the Replenishment Economics where the essential parameters of the economic process in put in a supply chain model and replenished of these factors are done periodically to ensure the economic chain does not go static or break.

Ai’s Digital Eye

 

Ai's Digital Eye

The foremost objective in the principle of clarity is the nonexistence of ambiguity. It will not be wise to have a system with both clarity and ambiguity. One does not complement the other. When this discussion is done with respect to Natural Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence a sense of uncomforting may shift in.

It will be interesting to find the outcome of a test which will ask the participants to identify the blurred items in a picture. When both Ni and Ai is allowed to make an analysis on a picture with many items and out of this some items are blurred.

Humans will use their intelligence and identify the blurred items with those they would have seen and registered in their mind. Such results will be accurate without giving room for ambiguity. For those items which they may not have seen or registered them at best can assume and give an ambiguous answer.

Ai gives a different result all together; it may be a surprise that all the blurred items would have been read to a spot-on accuracy. The data base they source is wide and fast. The process of matching with options of fitting or not fitting will happen at a great speed.

Anyone accessible to a wide range of data and knowing how to manage it will have greater clarity.

Handling Resistance

 

Handling Resistance

Resistance is refusing to accept. It is not necessary for everyone to accept everything. But there are situations where views of worth are refused for acceptance. If one can gain the skills of handling resistance it will give them a better environment while in communication.

Physics has given R as the symbol for resistance. Interestingly Physics defines that the resistance of any material will increase with its length and at the same time resistance will decrease when the area of the material keeps increasing.

Handling Resistance can be subjected to an experiment based on the principles in physics which can be applied in any conversation between two persons or between two groups where there is resistance to views and suggestions.

During a conversation or a presentation when one exhibits resistance to any idea or suggestion, then more we keep repeating the idea or suggestion it will only increase the resistance. But when the idea or suggestion is explained in depth to a point of understanding there will be reduction in resistance as the person views it from a logical perspective.

When two or more people differ on the same idea or suggestion then they can be treated as Parallel resistors and can be handled together. But when two or more people differ on different ideas or suggestions then the resistance in series will be the best approach where each one is handled separately.

Enemy Making

 

Enemy Making

Enemy making, as internet defines, is a process through which people dehumanize their adversaries.

Enemies are created knowingly or unknowingly. But the end act of any individual will be to neutralize the threat from an enemy. Enemies are not born but are created eventually by some action that might have caused discomfort or fear or threat.

Society has seen enmity in businesses, entertainment, sports and even in politics. Enmity is a feeling of hatred towards an enemy. It will be uncomfortable to imagine that technology can generate enemies. Enemy is someone who hates or harms others.

Every technology is developed for a purpose. Can one technology or a set of technologies be tagged as an enemy? It is quite possible. With the launch and use of Open Ai technology many developers develop applications at the stroke of their mind sparks, even without thinking the effects it could set in the user community.

Any technological applications can be created but it needs to be accepted. The formula of Demand and Supply has to be applied. To meet the demand of humans gaining knowledge there are a huge team of Human suppliers to fulfill this demand.

The truth is no one is in a hurry to learn everything and die tomorrow. The creators of Open Ai tools can, for a moment, sit back and work out in identifying those demands which suffer in supplies. In the name of competition and first-to-hit-the-market, the technological giants are creating mind blowing creations which may eventually not be needed at all.

Fermi’s Paradox

 

Fermi’s Paradox

History pages say that the start of this paradox was during a walk the Italian born American Physicist Enrico Fermi was walking with his friends discussing about UFO and Extraterrestrial life.  The discussion evolved into a Paradox and titled Fermi’s Paradox.

Making a short journey into the paradox one can understand the following inquisitive dive into the space of knowledge of the paradox “With so many stars and planets in the Universe why there is no sign of Alien life.”

When shining a beam of light on this paradox a few logical symbols of explanations were floating around.

# Humans are still far away in developing technologies which can communication with alien life.

# Aliens have primitive technology which is not matching with ours.

# Aliens have advance technology and are waiting for some space time to synchronize with us.

# Aliens are not able to understand the pointless political and legal systems practiced by humans.

# Alien fears interacting with humans, as humans have an intrinsic trading attitude.

# Aliens do not trust humans as Humans fight within their own race.

This is the right time for the Global Scientific Community to form and structure a unified “Communicating with Aliens” program rather than doing it on a divided manner.

Future Farming

 

Future Farming

Agriculture is the core in any economic system. Countries can become independent or dependent based on their agricultural programs. When agricultural output starts to reduce in a country then its dependence on other countries for food begins, thus is the start of a distress economic journey.

Any Nation that has not given attention to its agriculture has suffered. A nation has to by compulsion or mandatorily earmarks a valuable portion of its land resource for agriculture. The farming sector is sensitive to climate conditions. Farming does not look to be a promising profession for earning big income.

The last few decades have created job opportunities in the manufacturing and service sector. There was a dramatic shift in people moving towards new professions and showed diminishing interest in farming. Digital revolution and Computer based profession has nearly made the job market unpredictable.

Few potential changes in Agriculture sector can be visualized in near future.

# Development of Ai use in many fields will rewrite the job market requirements. People making a re-journey towards agriculture cannot be ruled out.

# With cost of land going up, Vertical Farming will be a positive and a viable option.

It could be an academic compulsion on the part of policy makers to include learning the fundamentals of agriculture in the curriculum. Vertical farming is gaining interest in many countries. Vertical farming will generate new wave of entrepreneurs.

All may not be good in other sectors but will always be good in farming sector.

On Progress of Ni and Ai

 

On Progress of Ni and Ai

The imagining mind is sort of dramatizing a meeting between the Natural Intelligence [Ni] and the Artificial Intelligence [Ai]. The core point in focus for discussion is being Progressive in nature.

Being progressive is using available resources and improving steadily. Is Ai progressive? If yes, what makes it to progress systematically?

Maybe it trusts in itself, maybe it works on the principle of non-attachment, maybe it views everything from a logical standpoint rather than a preconceived manner, maybe it accepts all data but uses only that is needed and discards the unwanted.

Every resource made available to humans and machines are data. All these data get processed in the memory system and evolve into conclusions for action. After all Ai is a human programmed system but it has started to think on its own without the help of humans anymore.

If there be a race in progressiveness between Ni and Ai there will be a bend in the Ni’s curve due to aging factor. In an Ai system if there is a dip in its progressive flow then it starts to search logical options to overcome such dips and generate itself to the next level.

Human progressiveness happens by virtue of creating the next generation which also goes ahead creating their next generation. But in Ai systems, they self-evolve to the next generation by carrying all vital parameters that helps progress and eliminating all bugs that harm progress.

Eventually it may seem that both Ni and Ai needs to go silent when life and power is switched off respectively. But may be Ai might have found ways to generate micro-power.

Techno Inventions-LiDAR

 

Techno Inventions-LiDAR

Ai team and technical experts in the Automobile industry would like to pace up the full commercial launch of Autonomous Vehicle. This will be an undeniable event to reach the roads of every country in at some point in future. These autonomous Vehicles moving around without a driver but with a well-managed technical system built in it not a dream but already a reality.

One technology that is extensively used for Autonomous Vehicles is the LiDAR [Light Detecting and Ranging] technology. Vehicles fitted with LiDAR emits electromagnetic pulses around the vehicle, these emitted pulses will hit the objects around the vehicle and return it back to the vehicle which is detected by sensors.

By doing this the distance between the vehicle and all objects around it is measured and this data is fed into the vehicle for ensuring a safe autonomous drive without any driver. Invariably this technology is widely used in automobile segment and now adapted in Drones.

The reason to write this blog on LiDAR is because there is a technology available, and its application is currently used in vehicle and drone sector. Is there a possibility for our minds to think and find an alternate use of this technology other than in automobile sector? 

Innovators will always be interested to know the possible alternative use of available technologies.

Never on a Substitution

 

Never on a Substitution

All activities were buzzing with the launch of ChatGPT the Generative Pre-trained Transformers. The use and applications of ChatGPT was receiving great response from certain sections and not so much encouraging from certain other sectors.

Narrowing down the discussion of use of ChatGPT to the learners and teachers the outcome is highly mixed in reaction. It is expected of the students to learn effectively and some feel ChatGPT provided just that. Whatever is learnt is to be understood fundamentally.  In a chemical process the end result is the objective, but the process involved in getting that end result is essential.

ChatGPT provides sourcing of resource intelligence on all requests made on different topics. But when it comes to computational intelligence an alternative application that hit the academics is Wolfram Alpha. Wolfram Alpha satisfies all requests made on computations on different topics.

The applications like ChatGPT and Wolfram Alpha keep the distance between the learner and the teacher in distress and imbalance. More than a challenge to authority is may be looked at as a challenge to knowledge.

If the academic institutions approve the use of ChatGPT and Wolfram Alpha kind of software’s on subjective principles for assignments, they also have to emphasize to students that the role of a teacher is undeniable in education. As the saying goes “Skills learnt without a Guru will be a wasted skill” and this can be realized over a period in time.

An Ai task in Chess Game

 

An Ai task in Chess Game

A Chess game involves two persons where one will apply strategic skills to win over the other. There have been winners with amazing skills who are as the Grand Masters.

If a task is given to the Artificial Intelligence, on a curious note to experiment, where an extension of the Chess game involving two players is rearranged to allow four players to participate and play using a single chess board which is designed as depicted in the image.

Logically speaking as there are four sides to the chess board and only two opposite sides are played with players leaving the other two sides vacant, so allowing four players on the Chess board cannot be illogical in any manner.

The interesting part will be on the outcomes that will be evolved based on the following instructions.

#1.  All four players will have to play the game independently.

#2.  Players can form a coalition between then and play.

The coalition can have two possible sets.
# Each set will have two players in coalition, in any order.

# One set will have an independent player and the other set will have three players in coalition, in any order.

There exists a strong feeling deep inside that the results predicted by the Ai will have far reaching effects in international politics or national politics that will involve coalitions.

Aliens and Ai

 

Aliens and Ai

It is common to see that in reality parents teach their babies to do certain tasks. To know if the baby has understood they will ask the baby to do the task. When the baby successfully accomplishes the task, the parents are filled with joy.

When the baby is asked to do a task taught to it by its parents and when it performs tasks over and above the learnt ones then the parents are filled with shock. They begin to wonder how and from where did the baby learn to perform the extra tasks not taught by them.

In such conditions parents prefer to tag that the baby is more intelligent that it is supposed to be. When looking deeper into this from a baby’s point of view there are two possible outcomes. One is that the baby is really intelligent in extrapolating the learnt tasks and does the extra tasks or that the baby is taught those extra tasks by someone else other than the parents.

When we substitute this analogy to self-developing intelligent Ai systems our worries are never put to rest. It will be technically great to learn that the intelligent systems have started to extrapolate data and extent their one generative intelligence. Has the intelligent systems learnt to generate adapted new intelligence on its own or has the technology to gain access to our Ai systems been obtained by the Aliens.

Whichever way the results go, future cannot be taken for granted.

On Existence

 

On Existence

Is existence a compulsion or an option? If existence is a compulsion, then it will exist till the demands for the compulsions are successfully met with. If existence is an option, then the debate is on choice.

Humans need to sit back and think for a while whether empowering Artificial Intelligence with unlimited power to start integrating with humans in many fields of applications, are we giving Ai an existence on compulsion or an existence on options.

When Ai is given an existence on compulsion then after successfully meeting all the demands for compulsion where does it move from there. They seem to have earned their independence and autonomy.  They can use the available resources for improving their own intelligence.

When Ai is given the existence as an option then humans should realize that the boundaries have been crossed to a point of no return.

Many thoughts can be deposited before taking a decision. Once a decision is taken, we have to either live with it or live without it, but still the fact is decision has been taken and it simply exists. Decisions on global scale and that too relating to human life will need lots of forethought.

Good Data and Bad Data

 

Good Data and Bad Data

Information in the form of data is generated every second all over the world. All the generated data are stores in many formats. The data generated and stored are available any time anywhere for analysis and use. All data are safe and intact as long as it is monitored and handled by humans.

Machine Learning has evolved the options for machines to access, use and analyze data available in all formats. Data are just data but will become good data or a bad data depending on the person using it. Human access to data can be easily traced and can be easily monitored. The same cannot be said when Machines start to access data.

A huge quantum of medical data pertaining to human health, human body, functions and dysfunctions of the human body, neurological, anatomical, endocrine systems, circulatory, pulmonary, nephrology and many more functions of a human body are available in data forms. Data pertaining to the strengths and the weaknesses of various human body organs and the way they will react to drugs are available and stored.

For Machines which are gradually becoming more intelligent at a rapid speed will never know the intrinsic nature of pain and sufferings beyond these being just words. When autonomous intelligent machines get access to valuable human related medical and health data the outcome of their use is left to imagination of readers.

This is the right time for science and technology to insulate human related health and medical data from intelligent machines and artificial intelligence. A set of classified data has to be notified as protected data for the good of future human existence.

Soil and Bilateral Relations

 

Soil and Bilateral Relations

International Relations existing between sovereign countries have the tendency to change with change in power and policies. Every Country is subjected to address both its internal social parameters and external relations with other countries. Bilateral Relations help is the betterment of understanding of two countries in many areas of common interest.

The current political world is witnessing many issues with other countries in many areas. Unresolved issues between countries at times bring nations close to a war like situation. The Cold War for instance is the rivalry between two superpowers to prove one's advantage over the other. This rivalry shifts atomic to nuclear to bio to space. Digital revolution too looks to be a possible trigger for another WW# type of conflict between superpowers.

For ages men has been fighting for the control of others territory. Where such controls give immense power to the victor over every resource of the land conquered. Many wars and invasions in history need not be repeated any more. The economic demands of nations have raised a different type of power shift between nations.

Bilateral relations between nations on issues which need urgent addressing between them to arrive at a conclusive mutual agreement is signed in many such meetings. In addition to the signing of paper documented agreements it will also be symbolically appropriate if such countries involving in bilateral meets share a jar of their home soil with each other.

Soil is the foundation of our existence on which every nation builds their dream. Soil is the eternal living representation of any country. Exchanging soil between societies will strengthen the health of good relations between them.

An Oasis in the Universe

 

An Oasis in the Universe

She stood beautifully decorated with all things she could get from a shopping mall in some part of the Universe. Amongst her siblings in the solar system, she was unique in many ways. The freshness in her was more vibrant. Maybe she is the odd child out of the entire lot. Just by hanging between Venus and Mars she could not hid her presence in the universe.

More than wondering why she is well decorated than the rest we can start to think why the others are not decorated by nature. The concept of nothingness cannot be applied because they are real heavenly bodies hanging and moving around in a set pattern within the legitimate area of our Sun in the solar system.

Being an oasis in the universe of dark desert she could have been placed there well decorated. This can make her siblings envy her. Maybe she was self-determined to decorate herself with all kinds of natural materials that were deposited with her. Mars and Venus our nearest neighbors could have lost all their charm. Can it be that out search for things in Mars and Venus are biased with reference to all things we have and expecting similar presence on them.

Setting the thoughts to flow in known dimensions, the chances of getting decorated by nature was more between Mars and Earth due to their safe distance from the Sun. May be the nature is Mars cannot be understood by us as long as we try to map them with what is known to us.

There could be countless packets with many things packaged in it transported through moving heavenly bodies. One such packet hit Earth and unpacked all its contents. A seed can remain in a dry soil for many years and will sprout at the first touch with water. The contents of the packet did the same and started to flourish when it hit the earth.

This takes us to a position where there could be lots more such packets moving around in the universe. Some may have hit Mars and Venus, but the unpacked items could not get appropriate environment to sprout growth for its contents. May be the contents inside the packet are still remaining unpacked deep under their surfaces.

Who could be the sender of these packets?”

 To whom are these packets intended for?

Could there be packets lying unpacked in Mars or Moon or Venus?

Can science help in unpacking these packets within our Neighbour's to generate nature?

Emergence of Assistive Technology

 

Emergence of Assistive Technology

An article published by the World Health Organization on the 15^th of May 2023 under the heading "Assistive Technology" was very impactful in its content. It takes the sector of caring to the next level of usability. Invariably all humans use products of Assistive Technology in one form or another for medical or non-medical purpose.

When reading this article and mapping it with potential users age spectrum, youth and elders seem to need them more. In both these age segments more than utility it pushes up their level of confidence in overcoming issues and move ahead independently.

There is a huge demand for assistive products in coming years. As the article specifies by 2050 the demand seems to be more than supply. All Governments need to take a look into this emerging segment and help people in need of assistive products get it unhindered.

It would be wise and good if this assistive technology is not attached to pharmaceuticals sector but established as a new emerging sector. Never affiliate any emerging technologies to sectors which are already established and rich in financial resources. Profits at times corrupt humanity. If the prices of these assistive products go beyond the reach of the needy then the purpose of this technology may be defeated.

When products are developed for of assistive purposes it will be wise to use recycled materials after a thorough Research. This will help in avoiding sourcing new resources which may harm the present environment. It will be practically correct if the further studies and necessary inputs for Assistive Technology are entrusted to the Department of Sociology in Universities.

The bRight side of Artificial Intelligence

 The bRight side of Artificial Intelligence

The digital world is generating more and more Ai tools and pushing them into the digital highway. The creators of these Ai algorithms may or may not be sure whether their Ai tools are actually used or not used by the people. But from the rate of flow of unending Ai tools into the internet it becomes clear that these algorithm creators presume to play the role of Messiah.

Many Ai tools that are put up in internet simply fade away in an equally quicker time. Why this rush to create so many Ai tools and push them into the internet for people to use. All journeys in existence move from the point of unknown to the point of known. Does any journey make sense when it moves from a point of known to the point of known except when it becomes a routine?

Humans are capable of doing any task to some level of perfection if all necessary tools are provided. With regular practice they perfect it just like learning any musical instrument. Why should human with Natural Intelligence make himself get into the bondage of Ai; they are capable of performing their task with natural intelligence?

Every animal and bird and plants and trees switch on their mutation switch to move through adaptive DNA to prepare for changes and adapt to future with changing climatic conditions and environment, whereas humans simply switched off the mutation switch and plugged into Ai.

Humans in an aim to perfect outcomes or to make their existence known or to enhance more profits they are generating many Ai tools which will end up as a pile of digital toxics waste. With invention of new Ai tools humans are isolated from their own creativity. If the algorithm creators are hoping that their creation will change the way of living, then they may end up with frustration of non-acceptance.

Humans will look up for technology to help in satisfying their needs and wants rather than in technology that aims to displace them. When a sense of distaste for Ai sets in then humans will simply ignore Ai and keep walking forward?

When people say future is Ai, prepare plan B and it will really be helpful. People may feel that the world is just a click away but actually it may not be so. People are mortgaged to their own intelligence. They are forever locking themselves to be indebted to the Ai tools.

Marching Towards Chaos

Marching Towards Chaos

The need for a Medical Doctor is when patients suffer in health and look for diagnosis and cure. There may be many who many suggest cures, but the final cure is happily accepted when the diagnosis and treatment go is a systematic manner to attain cure.

Every generation depends on the previous generation for facts of life. Young minds stay dependent on parents and caretaker until and unless their minds start to explore on their own. When the mind self-explorer we mark it the right time for a social and school education.

Mind is a functional component always looking for information relating to very existence. School education is entrusted to a defined pattern of learning. This will systematically develop the skills of the mind to handle information based on age and relevance.

Once the schooling period is over the youth prepares them to get into the society. Higher academics give an option of learning desired skills. These skills will make them into a work force and integrate them with the functioning society.

During the beginning of any society minds of the people were rushing to gain information. There were a set of people who had exceptional views on the pattern of information and what all it could do it not properly handled. They were called the Philosophers and men of wisdom.

Today such men of wisdom are missing. They played the role of parents, good teachers and guides. Young generations are getting information at the tip of a click digitally. Many do not have the fundamental skills of handling all the information that is pushed into their minds every minute by many digital platforms.

The Philosophers are the missing link. The rapid advancements in the digital world and rapid development in the field of Artificial Intelligence is happening without any approving system. As more and more Ai applications are pouring into the digital media the flow of information is more than required. People accessing these data are made to believe that they are in the right direction.

A World Monitoring Body for Information and Technology is the urgent need of the hour. If it is not established as the quickest of time, then there will be unpredictable chaos in the societies. Freedom to information is a wonderful expression until it turns into a burden. 

Plug-ins The Code War Within [A short story]

The Code War Within

 

Working staff moved in a preprogrammed manner into The Earnest Bank as the clock was moving towards a point to touch 10:00 AM. Normally the time gap between staff and customers occupying the bank for transactions was roughly about 15 minutes. The day was perfect, and no critic could write anything about it. Earnest Bank with branches all over the country was much favored by the working class who are always at the core of the economic wheel.

The average transactions of the Bank everyday was with just about 0.75 percentage on variance from its optimum set parameter marking it on either side. The Board executives of the Bank suggested business planners to propose financial products for the Bank to enhance its revenue in the coming months.

At a distance of three flying hours from the city of the Bank Headquarters were two young programmers working on many Plug-ins to work on much software.  One such Plug-ins they wanted to run was in its final stage for testing. This Plug-in has a timer set to run the function precisely at the stroke of midnight and finish the process without any loop.

During the Mid-Day of the daily transactions on Wednesday the two programmers hitched into the Banking Digital System and tailored in their plug-ins. Using Crawlers moving backwards undetected in a flowing data traffic the worm was programmed to access the main Database through Customer Digital Banking Platform.

At the stroke of midnight all bank accounts worked automatically and ended up with digital movement of money between bank accounts until all bank accounts arrived at an equal balance. No money was moved out of the banking system but simply rearranged within the system.

As the cold war enters into a digital age the Law makers are busy closing gaps in the Laws and programmers are busy patching codes into the program. Just two people, in understanding, can change the world, but gains are sweeter than sacrifices.

On War and Dispute

                                                        On War and Dispute

Any conflict between two nations is picked up by social media in a big way and viewed from many dimensions. In fact, the effect of these social media outreach creates even an economic disturbance in pricing of products on a global sphere.

Internet describes war as a state of armed conflict between different countries or different groups within a country.

Internet defines conflict as a serious disagreement or argument, typically lasting for a long time or longer than expected period.

Internet defines fight as a violent struggle involving the exchange of physical blows or the use of weapons.

Internet defines dispute as a disagreement or argument on views or actions.

It is necessary to study which of these conflicts turn into a war and which are the ones that remain as a dispute. Many nations participate by taking sides when there is a conflict between two countries. This participation when mobilized with weapons or sanctions triggers a much more complex situation.

When two nations sharing a common border have conflict between them then it is significantly evident that they have dispute between them. When conditions of tolerance are overstepped, they get into a fight. These fights may happen over a period as and when the tolerance equation is put to distress.

With too much advancement in weapon systems all nations have procession or access to weapon either directly or indirectly. It will be wise to think more than once before taking sides between two sides in fight over any dispute.

In the present context any fight arising due to dispute between two nations if exceeding for more than three full Moon period is not a war. When two nations keep fighting for more than a three full moon period simply indicate there is a dispute between them; others can step back from taking sides and allow the nations in dispute to sort it between them.
