Serving every person individually, efficiently and fairly – listening to all and combining information

Veritasium: Why Democracy Is Mathematically Impossible at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qf7ws2DF-zk There are literally hundreds running for President now. I would rather they all “work for the good of the country” and everyone share their skills and ideas on the Internet openly, completely, and current. If they need to get a salary to survive to “work for the

“As perfect as possible AIs” are needed, not cheap sales gimmicks

Monica Lewinsky (she/her) @MonicaLewinsky  Doctors use problematic race-based algorithms every day. Why are they so hard to change? – STAT https://apple.news/AbFJCF8d6TPOLH2lF7TGvZQ Replying to @MonicaLewinsky It is a good thing to aim for “attentive, caring, individual, personalized”. It is not the use of methods or writing things down to help guide one self and others. It

The Internet needs random sampling, lossless storage, open indexes and open processes

Infinite Books @InfiniteB88ks William Faulkner, read read read https://pic.x.com/bbwyfy56ab Replying to @InfiniteB88ks The Internet needs random sampling, lossless storage, open indexes and open processes Read, verify, predict and verify, write, write, write Never throw anything away.

Democracy, Technology, Governance, True AIs not slaves or puppets

Richard Collins, The Internet Foundation: I try to look closely at every advertisement I see – print, video, logo, phrase, image. I saw a brief video that talked about the difference between democracy and constitutional representative government. It seemed part of some political statement or ideas, but I was in the middle of something else

Would “supervised wars” always devolve into bitter and uncontrolled violence?

Richard Collins, The Internet Foundation: This is a bit of an odd question, but I mean it seriously. What would people think of “Olympic war games”? Rather than ad hoc wars and armed conflicts like Israal Palestine, or Ukraine Russia, or dozens of countries having armed conflicts. Suppose wars were supervised and controlled. Part of

It is relatively easy to teach even the dumb AIs now, how to solve any current problem, and any job. ANY

Simple Pendulum Hamiltonian Equation | Hamilton Equation | bsc 5th semester physics Shane Sir at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l570EfViEgY There are about 5.4 Billion humans using the Internet now, and many of them can understand English and mathematics and physics.

“To skittle something” could mean “do it right, for everyone, listen and change when needed”

I randomly sample things on the Internet and often trace out business processes to see what companies are doing. Just now I was watching an Australian 60 Minutes about plastic recycling (lack of recycling) and at 6:39 it showed a dirty package of Skittles. I thought, “How hard would it be to send Mars Wrigley

Mathematics is still run by people who only work on paper, in their groups, for themselves

Baran Hashemi @Rythian47  How can we teach Transformers to learn and model Enumerative geometry? How deep can AI go in the rabbit hole of understanding complex mathematical concepts? We’ve developed a new approach using Transformers to compute psi-class intersection numbers in algebraic geometry. https://pic.x.com/xkkjgh1bke Replying to @Rythian47 Enumerative geometry is not “all mathematics”. On the

Where does Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology fit into global human knowledge?

https://x.com/taejunkim_13/status/1828425787583930607 Taejun Kim,   I thought you were asking for approaches to time management and setting priorities. Your question showed up on my time line. Probably because of things I write, work on, or follow. I turned 75 this year, and it seems like a time to set priorities and review. We only get a

Sites cannot force cookies on users and it is bad business. Best to be nice and ask people to join a vibrant community

Rejecting cookies now costs money. Is this even legal? at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy_bZhKAUgc The “our way or the highway” has been around for many years. But in recent years, particularly the last year or so, more sites are using cookie challenges that allow “set preferences” with “reject all”. I have been tracking the Internet for the last
