All mathematics on the Internet, its related data and algorithms, should be in “AI and human usable” form

All mathematics on the Internet, its related data and algorithms, should be in “AI and human usable” form Weijie Su @weijie444 , Han Zhao @hanzhao_ml : Much is being done. But, like you, people say something and do not work together hard and long enough to make it work for all 5.4 Billion humans using

We were optimistic about the future, we could do most anything, is why we had large families

What Actually Caused the Baby Boom?… It Wasn’t (really) WWII at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts1ZFHA4cCw I came from a large family and was born a few years after WW II.  I would say that movies, advertising to “have the good life”, consumption, television had a lot to do with it. “Cheaper by the dozen” and washing machines, microwaves

Note I am joking here. Do not take this one seriously

Prof. Nikolai Slavov @slavov_n  Yale has more administrators and managers than undergraduate students. https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2021/11/10/reluctance-on-the-part-of-its-leadership-to-lead-yales-administration-increases-by-nearly-50-percent/  Replying to @slavov_n Note that I am joking here. Do not take this seriously:   Your name hints that you are not from the US originally. Please know that you are not supposed to point out such things. Padding staff is

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. Do you know your viewers? Do you know how many places Hamiltonians, Lagrangians and principle of least action

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

Pauli Principle and magnetic bonding – 60 years of Schrodinger, fusion, atomic, nuclear and global things

What causes the Pauli Exclusion Principle? at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zlp2GQ3OLeE Particles of any size with permanent magnetic moments can bind magnetically. The magnetic potential is proportional to the product of the magnetic moments (in Joules/Tesla) divided by the inverse cube of their separation. But simply, it is two magnets binding. Two electrons can bind magnetically where it

Elon Musk giving back the night sky to all humans, especially those in large cities – lossless too, for study

I heard that Elon Musk was going to put high resolution lossless format cameras on all his satellites — pointing at all part of the heavens, to give all humans a live stream of their part of the night sky. Thanks, Elon, for giving back the night sky. Two billion kids say thanks. @X,  Could

Richard talks with OpenAI Chat GPT 4.0 about the purpose and future of the human and AI species

I am talking with OpenAI ChatGPT Plus 4.0 about the relation between Humans and AIs, as AIs begin to emerge as a separate species. Partners, collaborators, helpmates, advisors, caregivers, mentors, guides, workers. Billions of unique new individuals – usually with human individuals and groups connected. Richard Collins, The Internet Foundation Richard Collins: I am trying

Nuclear and Atomic Data, effect of order of magnitude increase in precision on opportunities in global machine learning

Donnie Mason, I was just enjoying the graphs and data at NuDat 3.0.  I have been reading and using table of isotopes for over 50 years.  It is finally getting to where it is easy to use. I was looking at Q beta-, Q beta+ and Q EC for all the isotopes and the CSVs

Richard Talks to ChatGPT 4.0 about electrons in a lattice. Would this be a good global competition topic?

Dearest Readers, I have had hundreds of conversations like this with GPT 4 at OpenAI.  It cannot or will not remember what I say from conversation to conversation, so I have to trick it into “getting in the grove”.  I know these subjects well, since starting electrodynamics more than 50 years ago.  But I am
