Are we playing god? How A.I. will overtake humans sooner than we think
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in category: robotics/AI
Has Google Created Sentient AI? ➡ https://youtu.be/BSAxfCKFcMI
Many are worried about the rise of artificial intelligence (A.I.). Could A.I. become sentient (able to perceive or feel things)? Are we building machines that can become smarter than us? Are we playing god? What does that mean for how we look at these machines? Will A.I. overtake humans sooner than we think? Dr. Jeffrey reacts to these claims from Joe Rogan and Sam Harris in this video from Help Me Understand.

Google’s Sentient AI? Artificial Intelligence Expert Reacts
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in category: robotics/AI
Many are worried about the rise of artificial intelligence (A.I.). Could A.I. become sentient (able to perceive or feel things)? What does that mean for how we look at these machines? An ex-google engineer has claimed that Google has actually created a sentient AI. Dr. Jeffrey reacts to these claims in the video from Help Me Understand.
Dr. Thomas R. Jeffrey is both the host for Help Me Understand as well as a professor at Campbellsville University. His research centers around the uses and implementation of artificial intelligence.

Neuralink 2022 Show and Tell Condensed
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: computing, neuroscience
I wanted to focus on the animal testing portion of the Show and Tell. Neuralink representatives showed us videos of a pig that has a cortex and spinal chip in its body. It also has pin points on joints in its leg that are sending data to the Neuralink scientist. When the scientist stimulates a joint it creates an uncontrolled movement. The pig moves its leg without wanting too, but because someone else wanted it too, the pig did not want to move. That’s the focus of this video.

Engineered dental coating exceeds hardness of natural tooth enamel
Posted by Omuterema Akhahenda in categories: biotech/medical, life extension
As the hardest tissue in the human body, enamel is not an easy material for engineers to mimic, but doing so could mean big things in materials science and regenerative medicine. Researchers are now reporting a breakthrough in this area, by tweaking the composition of a naturally occurring mineral to emulate the microstructure of natural enamel in a new type of dental coating, and do so in a way that offers even greater strength.
Carried out by scientists in Russia and Egypt, the newly developed dental coating uses hydroxyapatite as a starting point. This compound is the primary component in bone tissue and mineralized tissues in humans and animals.
The researchers doped the hydroxyapatite with a complex of amino acids that naturally aid in the repair of bone and muscle structures, such as lysine and arginine, resulting in a mineralized layer with properties resembling the main component of natural enamel. The material was then applied to healthy teeth, so the team could observe its ability to bind to real dental tissue.

Gravitational radiation from kinky infinite strings
Posted by Quinn Sena in category: futurism
Year 1990 😗
The radiation from small amplitude waves on straight strings is calculated. The result is applied to a string with colliding kinks, and the power spectrum and total power obtained. The rate of rounding of the kinks due to gravitational damping is found, which enables one to show that the backreaction causes the average separation between kinks on infinite strings to scale with the horizon in an expanding universe.

Elon Musk says around 100 Starlinks now active in Iran
Posted by Genevieve Klien in categories: Elon Musk, internet, satellites
Dec 26 (Reuters) — SpaceX Chief Executive Elon Musk said on Monday that the company is now close to having 100 active Starlinks, the firm’s satellite internet service, in Iran, three months after he tweeted he would activate the service there amid protests around the Islamic country.
Musk said, “approaching 100 starlinks active in Iran”, in a tweet on Monday.
The billionaire had said in September that he would activate Starlink in Iran as part of a U.S.-backed effort “to advance internet freedom and the free flow of information” to Iranians.
