Might there be interest by ISSIP in exploring collaboration here (and re World Univ & Sch too)?

Thanks Scott for attending the ISSIP video call - and for capturing the chat below!
Thanks also for formulating an ISSIP-WUaS challenge - recall the drivers test translation in all languages challenge.
We have not gotten much traction yet with Challenges, but Yassi and Heather are keen to experiment with hack-a-thons, and then I think we could try to do a global challenge to collect data that helps realize a part of the WUaS vision.
Have fun at Stanford today - and thanks for the suggestion of connecting with the colleges.
All good ideas - once we find a want to make things more connected. I want my workforce of AI assistants to help me get more of the great ideas done!
Thanks, -Jim

Hi Jim and Yassi,
Thanks for the ISSIP update (re https://www.eventbrite.
Any chance your AI assistants could / will develop as Avatar Bots (am thinking Pegman growing in Google Streetview with TIME SLIDER / Maps / Earth at the cellular/atomic levels with QC computing / TensorFlow with Hangouts into Avatar Bots in something like Sansar / Second Life / OpenSim, but realistic ... and eventually for physical-digital tele-robotic surgery in conjunction with Stanford Medicine's Center for Digital Health, and as part of emergent online CC-4 MIT OCW-centric Stanford Medicine OCW medical schools - in something like Project ECHO - with online teaching hospitals - in something like Duke/Stanford's Google's Project Baseline into avatar bots - and for online clinical care ?
All of this would emerge, conceptually and coding-wise, in a realistic virtual earth -
"Quantum Computing & a #RealisticVirtualEarth ? Am thinking Google Streetview with TIME SLIDER / Maps / Earth / @TensorFlow (where TensorFlow is 'algorithm machine') & per https://engineering.stanford.
- and potentially with Quantum Computing, per a recent Stanford talk on QC by an IBM colleague who said he knows you well - https://engineering.stanford.
This realistic virtual earth idea, conceptually with Google Translate / Wikidata/Wikibase (in Wikipedia's ~300 languages), would open avenues for further "formulating an ISSIP-WUaS challenge - recall the drivers test translation in all languages challenge." Conceptually, this is all a very Google Cloud-centric vision, but offers much potential for AI assistants re avatar bots, potentially, and ISSIP Grand Challenges especially.
Thanks again so much,

Thanks Scott - you have no shortage of big ("gigantic") vision!
We have a long way to go to get to where you are suggesting below.
However, in 10-20 years, yes. Since I am 63 now, I hope to make it and sees this world you describe below.
Here are some related links:

Thanks so much, Jim,
And great! "Mirror Worlds Software Universe Shoebox" (OUP 1993) may be a kind of executable code for such a vision too, but the Google Cloud TensorFlow Platform re Quantum Computings' possibilities (what will be these algorithms?) with Stanford SLAC holds much promise as I think about this.
Maybe we'll all live much longer than the 122 outer limit (Jeanne Calment - see 'Longevity' at WUaS below), and in these regards,
Here's the MIT Media Lab director Joi Ito's article on longevity re the promise of gene editing research and longevity - https://web.
"He is currently experimenting with age reversal in dogs using gene therapy that has been successful in mice, a technique he believes is the most promising of nine broad approaches to mortality and aging—genome stability, telomere extension, epigenetics, proteostasis, caloric restriction, mitochondrial research, cell senescence, stem cell exhaustion, and intercellular communication."

I've also updated this blog entry - https://scott-macleod.
I wonder how such gene editing will emerge into a realistic virtual earth (and at World University and School) beyond CRISPR gene editing digital technologies - or with CRISPR technologies into Google Street View (Again, in terms of a realistic virtual earth, I'm thinking conceptually in terms of Google Street View with time slider / Maps / Earth / TensorFlow AI software / Brain).
(And to my friend-from-childhood, Dr. Richard Robb MD, a retiring Harvard Professor of Medicine, in a related vein: it would be great to explore perhaps co-creating a New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) Continuing Education Module (CME) on clinical ophthalmology and eye pathology for online medical students, and medical doctors online too, which could eventually be translated into all ~200 countries' official languages, and offered even in the first two years of online medical schools in same countries and languages (potentially at WUaS - https://wiki.
I'd like to keep innovating through the centuries if this might be possible :)

Hi Scott,
Thanks for attending the call. And, thank you for sharing your great ideas! As Jim said, may be in a few years….:-).
Also, thank you for the pointer about the event at Stanford. Coincidentally, I got a text this afternoon from another colleague at a Stanford ( Martha Russell, Exec Director, MediaX) about the same event. So, I signed up, and hope to see you there.
Thanks,
Yassi

Great, Yassi,
And thanks for holding the ISSIP Board meeting in Zoom today!
Looks like there's a reception for - https://events.stanford.edu/
See you soon, Scott

Hi Yassi,
Are you here at Stanford? I don't see you yet. Am sitting in the far back stage left.
See you soon I hope, Scott :)
*
Hi Scott,
I was sitting on the 2nd front row (business class section:-)), and I saw you in the back. I had to run out quickly at the end of the talk. - Yassi

Hi Yassi,
Thanks for your email, and that you were there. Chancellor Oakley was more than great (as was Mitchell Stevens). Was glad to meet and talk with both of them afterward, and re MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School.
I'm often somehow sitting in way far out left field, like last night, so perhaps we can sit together at another Stanford gathering. (Didn't see Martha Russell either).
What did you think of the conversation?
Cheers, Scott

Migration via quantum mechanics
A perplexing property of quantum mechanics could be allowing birds to see and navigate the planet’s magnetic fields
One-fifth of Earth's 10,000 bird species migrate over great distances, crossing seemingly insurmountable obstacles as they follow the seasons.
Demoiselle Cranes fly to altitudes in excess of 20,000 feet as they pass over the Himalayan Mountains. The Arctic Tern travels from pole to pole in pursuit of an endless summer, a distance of some 40,000 miles.
Scientists have long speculated that certain animals are making use of magnetic fields to find their way, but biologists are mystified as to how they might do it.
Now some answers might be coming from one of the most perplexing interactions in physics.
Quantum entanglement dictates that if two electrons are created at the same time, the pair will be “entangled” so that whatever happens to one particle affects the other. Otherwise, it would violate fundamental laws of physics.
