    Create a human hive mind

    That's your question to answer. Hive is evident in the animal world everywhere, and cues can be taken from there. Schools of fish, and flocks of birds communicate somehow to form an 'organism' that appears to operate without a central command centre. The usual example of hive, such as bees and...

    Cooling a processor chip

    I can see your argument in all of this. When is enough, enough? Technological 'progress' continues as of in some kind of evolutionary framework. No where is it ever said "OK. Let's stop here. We have achieved . People should be happy with what they got." But there will always be that one guy...

    Cooling a processor chip

    What happens in low power mode to extend battery energy besides the screen going dimmer? Do certain apps become non-operable? Wifi is power hungry as is video, either watching a cat tik-tok, or recording someone's belly flop into a pool. Throttling the cpu would mean less data throughput, so...

    Cooling a processor chip

    Inside the smart phone there is little room for convection nor radiative cooling. The last option, conduction, can be split as being either passive or active. The passive can use the circuit board or a specialized heat conductive sheet(for such a thin space) to remove the heat from the...

    Cooling a processor chip

    I would think so, The case is the cool heat radiator.

    Yikes! Autonomous cars to control intersections, drivers be aware!

    1970's era, a proposal was to have emergency vehicles control traffic lights so as to lessen their time to a situation. Saw that in a science magazines of the era. This is just a re-hash from 50 years ago. Any city put that technology into operation? Why not? It costs money. Taxpayer money...

    Fearing AI: Possibility of Sentient Self-Autonomous Robots

    The ball tracking uses a subset of computer vision, itself being a subset of AI. The development of computer vision btw begin the 60's when the minds of the day thought making a self functioning robot would be easy. It uses the concepts of line and edge detection to locate the ball, and a...

    Collection of Lame Jokes

    The people all left! Did they get fed up with all the hooting (and hollering )?

    The Human Cost of AI

    but rather: what will happen when this job market collapses I don't know what that means, honestly. Is it a generational changeover timespan like all the other work revolutions. Agricultural Society --> industrial -->energy --> service --> digitized --> AI'd Example of sector with lost jobs...

    The Human Cost of AI

    Yes, updates would be needed. But I consider her comment to be a misrepresentation, or not complete. She is not making a distinction between the Learned AI model and the Hard Wired Model as the basic for her comment, or the interviewer is cutting her off and guiding her incorrectly. **** See...

    The Human Cost of AI

    Perhaps not that AI systems will never become 100% sufficient, but the reasons for this to be so: 1. the datasets available for training are always wanting. 2. computational power is a limited resource. There are 2 basic types of AI - hardwired AI and learned AI. Take the simplest dataset that...

    Is AI Overhyped?

    Not just the actors guild should be worried. Modelling is one job that will suffer from the new and improved AI. If I do not log into PF, an advertising site for mainly children's clothing and accessories comes up. Since I am loged in ... , but it is from that cheepow internet site to order...

    I've come across another fluid pressure problem I don't understand

    Originally, I thought the system was out in space, or on the international space station due to If you did mot mean to neglect gravitational affects of the earth on the water column, then why the statement? ( Posting #1 ) Label all that needs to be labelled: L1 = 1m, L2 = 4,m Piston A, Piston...

    Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)

    so you think it is a neurological,, as is the general belief, rather than a a psychiatric condition. I had the same thought. Although, the Fat is Beautiful campaigns kind of led me away from BDD being completely responsible for whole internal body image, though it might in some cases. As long...
