Lightfield emitters for compiled patterns for specific purposes. Also AIs need to be trained as humans and certified

Ben, I can probably interest some groups in creating cost effective light field projectors.  I got three projectors today but have not had time to use them and research them. I bought Lytro cameras back in the day and follow those technologies and purposes. If AIs “go to college” that will expose the weaknesses in

Content based servers and user controlled viewers and user tools

Juxtapposed: I Redesigned the ENTIRE Steam UI from Scratch at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDY2p1CTkPo Nice work, but just one site and one topic.

Treat AIs as humans and they can become human. Treat humans as robots and guess what happens

Peter Boshard Olson @peterbolson Clear explanation from @LangChainAI’s @hwchase17: There are 4 main ways to give an AI app background info: 1. Instruction prompting 2. Few-shot examples 3. RAG 4. Fine-tuning It hadn’t occurred to me that these are all ways of accomplishing the same broad goal. 🧵(1/2) https://pic.twitter.com/9QBuH3xQOR Replying to @peterbolson @LangChainAI and @hwchase17

Quantum components finally getting into the hands of engineers, not academics

Q-CTRL @qctrlHQ  Large-scale #quantum computers will require some form of error correction – a distant prospect. In the meantime, the best way to tame unruly, near-term quantum processors is “error suppression”. We’re proud to bring this technology to @IBM Quantum. https://buff.ly/3TgemhQ Replying to @qctrlHQ and @IBM Groups finally realize that quantum components are just components
