What's Coming

12% of our population is BLACK

60% of our population is WHITE, non Hispanic
 

What does that tell you?

ONLY 12 out of every 100 Americans are BLACK...

AND YET...  these 12% are pretty much telling the rest of the Americans living in the USA how they should live and more specifically, how their children should be taught in public schools K-12.

I DON"T THINK SO...

As they say in TN "That dog don't hunt..."

I'm not opposed to blacks...  and, I am not opposed to blacks dating white...  nor am I opposed the interracial marriages...  as all of that is a choice to which people are entitled.

What I am opposed to, is a minority telling the majority how they are going to live or how they are not going to live...

That ain't how it works.

At least not in this country...   and, while the blacks seem to be in control of these sorts of things right now, the remaining 60% in the near future is going to get a little to a lot pissed off and start fighting back.

We have already seen this with mothers who are opposed to CRT training in elementary schools.

The blacks are putting this country into a position where there could soon be a racial war.

Robot Snake in our Future


A robot that imitates the flexibility of a snake could be used in cancer surgery within 10 years, experts say.  The remote-controlled robot, called COBRA, has previously been used in jet engineering and nuclear plants.

The University of Nottingham, which developed the robot, has secured funding to make the robot the first of its kind in the UK.  Prof Dragos Axinte (ABOVE) said: "We have started early tests to see if the robot can... perform surgical procedures."

The researchers, who are collaborating with Rolls-Royce, said they had secured funding from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council to adapt COBRA for use in surgery - specifically throat cancer and injury surgery.

They said that while such medical procedures were currently performed with endoscopic tools, COBRA could offer more dexterity, accuracy, and high-definition views for surgical teams.

It has been used as part of a preliminary study at a hospital in Leicester.  READ MORE...

Growing Old

Getting old and then getting older and then getting older after that is not much fun...  it is not so much that your body changes and that you can no longer do what you used to do, and it is not so much not being able to remember all that you want to remember...  it is more like PEOPLE TREAT YOU DIFFERENTLY when you are old and then older than they are.


These younger types see you as no longer excited or provocative and that your thought are old and antiquated...  but more importantly, they believe that you no longer think like they (the youth) think and there your comments and appearance is simply disregarded.


The irony of all of this is the fact that when I was younger, and then younger, and then younger, I felt just like they (the young) think as it relates to me...  so, it seems that this is something that everyone is going to experience whether they want to experience it or not.


Age not only changes you and how you perceive and think but it change how OTHERS PERCEIVE YOU... and since we judge ourselves on what others think of us, it is a terrible time for some of us when we grow old.


The only consolation that I have is knowing that YOU WILL EXPERIENCE THIS ONE DAY TOO and begin to understand what it is like to grow old.

Artificial Intelligence and Robots

 


1. What is AI?

Artificial intelligence or AI simulates human intellect to machines. AI-enabled machines are capable of performing specific tasks better than humans and mimic human actions. There are four types of AI:Reactive machines: This is the most superficial level of AI. Reactive machines can do basic operations. 

They cannot form memories or use past experiences to make decisions. IBM’s Deep Blue is the perfect example of this type of machine. This AI beat international grandmaster Garry Kasparov in 1997.Limited memory: This AI type can store existing data and create better output by using the data. For example, Tesla’s self-driving cars observe the speed of vehicles and direction and act accordingly.Theory of mind: Theory of mind can connect with human thoughts and interpret them better. 

The AI can understand people and have thoughts and emotions of its own. These AI machines are still hypothetical, but researchers are making many efforts to develop such AI machines.Self-aware AI: This type of AI is a thing of the future. A self-aware AI will have an independent intelligence, and it will make its own decisions. These machines will be smarter than the human mind.

2. What is Machine Learning?
Machine Learning is a discipline within artificial intelligence where systems can learn from past data, identify patterns, detect anomalies, and make decisions with minimal human intervention. Once the system has learned from the past data, it can provide an inference based on the new input parameters.

There are primarily three different types of machine learning, namely:

2.1 Supervised Learning
Learning takes place from the training dataset under supervision. The input and output data are known for the training data, and the learning process establishes a relationship between them.

2.2 Unsupervised Learning
The corresponding output variables for a set of input variables are not established in unsupervised learning. Algorithms such as clustering and association are designed to model the data’s underlying structure or distribution to learn more about them.2.3 Reinforced Learning

Reinforcement learning employs trial and error methods to come up with a solution and gets either rewards or penalties for the actions it performs. Reinforcement learning is the most effective way to hint at a machine’s creativity.

3. What is a robot?
A robot is a machine that is capable of carrying out specific tasks automatically. It can replicate human efforts and provide better outcomes.

There are five types of robots:
  • Pre-programmed robots: Pre-programmed robots can perform simple tasks. A mechanical arm used for welding in the automotive industry is an example of a pre-programmed robot.
  • Humanoid robots: These robots can perform human-like activities. They look like humans and mimic human actions. Hanson Robotics’ Sophia is a perfect example of humanoid robots.
  • Teleoperated robots: Humans control these robots. They perform tasks in extreme conditions where humans cannot operate. Human-controlled submarines or drones are examples of teleoperated robots.
  • Autonomous robots: These are independent robots that do not require human intervention. They carry out tasks on their own. A perfect example would be the Roomba vacuum cleaner. It uses sensors to roam throughout a home freely.
  • Augmenting robots: Augmenting robots enhance human capabilities by replacing the ineffective part. Some examples of augmenting robots are prosthetic limbs or exoskeletons.  READ MORE...
