Introductie LO: Onderstaand FD artikel van 17 september 2024 geeft een aardig inzicht in de 4 SWOT categorieën uit mijn schema van 12 juni 2023. Bron: mijn blog Artificial Intelligence, a SWOT analysis, 12 juni 2023 Alternatief, in de recente woorden van Murat Durmus op LinkedIn: de papegaai die denkt dat hij Picasso is……….

Technological Revolution 1800-2100
Machine learning vs AI
15 Oct, 2024
Intro LO: The Scientific American article below might be a good example why the future of technology is with machine learning rather than with artificial intelligence (AI). This quote from online news source 1440 may help understand: “Researchers found 70,500 previously unknown RNA viruses using an AI model that combines machine learning with protein structure...
Can AI live up to the hype?
7 Oct, 2024
Recently, economist Daron Acemoglu and Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology claimed that Artificial Intelligence (AI) can only do 5% of jobs. Bloomberg: “You’re not going to get an economic revolution”. Hence, he fears a “massive crash” in a bubble. I agree. Before his prediction, we had several doomsday predictions by the IMF...

Anything that happened before the great flood (c.20,000-c.7,000 years ago) appears to have been lost “forever”. Perhaps, our ignorance towards our distant past has a...
A healthy mind in a healthy body

I grew up in a small village in the 1960s. I suppose that most villagers knew about each other's reputations. We played outside all of the time, with no supervision. Nevertheless, my parents seemed aware of our activities. Back then, they didn't seem to worry about our independence. A 2023 WaPo article (below) suggests that children develop a mental health crisis...
