Always 30 years away
For the past 30 years, politicians, CEO's, leaders of every stripe, have often talked about doing 'something' about human greenhouse gas pollution. They make plans, sign treaties, pledge to make cuts to emissions. Those plans are left unfulfilled, without even much effort made towards them. Those treaties are ignored, violated, and discarded. Those pledges aren't worth the paper they're written on. For 30 years I've watched our leaders fail us. For 30 years I've watched my fellow citizens pay lip service to doing something about this crisis that we've all known has been coming, which is here, and which is only getting worse. For 30 years I've watched those same citizens fail to live up to their own ideals. So, when some 'leader' makes a 'promise' to reduce emissions in 10, 20, 30 years from now... they're lying to you. If somebody makes a promise to do something in 1 year, 2 years, maybe even 5 years, maybe that promise (if from a credible source, with enforcement mechanisms) could
Worsening Opinion of AI Implementations
I'm coming to the conclusion that the algorithms that are commonly getting lumped under the label "AI" are too problematic to be in widespread use. They have no morality, no limits, no situational awareness, and poor if any capacity to understand some critical distinctions. It takes the better part of a decade of constant learning before a human can even begin to have a decent conversation, and the better part of two decades before our society considers a human sufficiently learned and responsible enough in order to be legally responsible for their own choices and generally be trusted (sometimes wrongly, but often rightly) to not make things a total disaster. Human learning comes in many layers of rules and limits at every step. The ways in which these algorithms are being 'trained', well, if you want to randomly sample anything any human has ever written or drawn, but recombined in disturbing ways and put into totally different contexts, you're going to end up with some deeply
Mathematical Modeling
For my work, I've been doing a lot of mathematical modeling of biological data recently. It's been pretty cool actually. Made me remember a ton of stuff that I 'learned' in high school, but now I'm revisiting those memories with a ton more experience, and lots of those old memories have just made a lot more sense now. Been plotting out tens of thousands of observations, performing complex algebra on them, testing lots of things. The past year has felt longer to me than any year in the past 15, because I've just been so engaged with it. Last night I figured out how to make animated plots to visually show the steps of the analyses I've been doing. I've struggled to explain all of it to my colleagues, but I think that maybe if I make an animation that shows the results of each step as a process, then they'd understand. If I do something like that, I might submit a copy here as well. Some of the math is actually really beautiful.
Thoughts on AI Generated Art
When I first learned about the attempts to use AI to help make images, I was skeptical. There are 4 critical elements that I think are important (though not always essential) in visual art. 1) Expression of the artist 2) Technique employed 3) Resulting Aesthetic 4) Inspirational Capacity Each type of visual art uses these, to greater or lesser degrees. However, I wasn't sure that using AI assistance in generating art would really fulfill any of these categories, let alone all of them. I have come to the conclusion that it does, or that at least it can. There are still some standing issues about ethics and intellectual property rights for these pieces of software, but I'd like to explain my thought process. First, let's set aside the moral and social complexities for a bit and examine AI Generated art on its own terms. Does it meet the criteria for visual art? 1) Is it an expression of the artist? My answer is: to a varying degree. Most of these pieces of software have the user fill

Oh man! I saw this last week but I forgot to reply. I'm really flattered! I've always been curious about meeting online friends but I don't want to seem like a weirdo, lol. GIVE ME YOUR ADDRESSSSS....
(More likely due to con artists. But I'm not one, so idk why I worry about being suspected of wanting friend's addresses for that reason.) I do have a penpal though, and we send packages twice a year for birthdays and Christmas. I sent you two things before, and you saved my butt when I was struggling with a math class.
