ACollierAstro: electricity and magnetism are the same thing at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nxyriaA2UQ At low speeds. 1/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2) = (1/2)*v^2/c^2. From your derivation you used mostly things where that is likely. There are many derivations of the same equivalence between electricity and magnetism where they use the Lorentz transformation and the charge velocity is any size, except near the

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.

Twitter: I averaged a 50×50 pixel area from a live video of the ocean for several minutes. Not completely uniform but showing bands of light and color. Our AIs might use these kinds of background averages, then focus on exceptions. All videos should use lossless compression and archives. Richard Collins, The Internet Foundation Lawai Beach
