Today 4/3/23 WUaS News and Q&A items - 

Dear SSA President Bart Griffith, in what ways might MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch and Shady Side Academy explore collaborating an regarding possibly an online WUaS IB high school Diploma Programme as  #conscious #LargeLanguageModel eg with - the CC4-licensed "CS First with Google at World Univ & Sch' Scratch programming courses ... https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/s/en/home - that SSA students could potentially avail themselves of (for this IB degree too) ?

And per - 

#WUaShighSchools #onlineIB? #conscious #LargeLanguageModels ~

#WUaShighSchools #onlineIB? #conscious #LargeLanguageModels ~
https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme WITH @Shady_Side Academy #PghPA so #SSA will get #WUaSIBdiploma on #GoogleWUaS #GoogleEducation platform & @WorldUnivAndSch would get high achieving, focused #HighSchoolStudents RE #SSACampus ?

WUaS aging reversal - 

Prof @GeoChurch, you know how people diminish in height & muscle tone (and bone density) too as they age? Can you envision adding https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk back into people's bodies enough #AgingReversal genetic drugs to #ReverseAging to even make people the height & muscle mass they had at age 25?

DDDE

In what ways could WUaS explore this further in a Realistic Virtual Earth for Genetics and with Avatar Bot Electronic Medical Records, and at the cellular and molecular levels (think Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth TensorFlowAI TensorStore, GTranslate and little Pegman becoming our Avatar Bots in some of these regards) ... and possibly with a smartwatch for adding genes from the internet and via wifi back into us (possibly via gel electrophoresis as one of a myriad avenues here)?

Google Bard vs ChatGPT: Who Wins the AI Battle?

Is Google Bard better than ChatGPT?
Our trials make clear that ChatGPT is the more advanced model right now, even if it only has data up to 2021 at its disposal. It just plays in a different league than Google Bard, and its answers routinely offer more context.

Greetings, and thanks so much for your great Flywire Connectome Town Hall yesterday. I'm writing to follow up both the questions I asked, a few sets of related Tweets, and further inquiry into how to explore further Drosophila Connectome Consciousness - with David Chalmers' thinking too (https://twitter.com/davidchalmers42). In a related vein, how to build out a realistic virtual earth for Drosophila fly STEAM research, at the molecular level, the cellular level and the street view level (and think Google Street View with Time Slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI TensorStore, and even Pegman as an avatar boo become a Drosophila fly Google avatar ... and in conversation with my and MIT OCW-centric World Univ & Sch seeking to develop a Realistic Virtual Harbin Hot Springs, for further iterating wiki ethnographic research - http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html ).

My questions in registering for the Flywire Town Hall  -

Coming into conversation with the paper, how could the Flywire connectome and citizen scientists' mapping of fly brains at the cellular and molecular levels be extended into, and made interoperable with, Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI in 1 Realistic Virtual Earth for species and evolutionary biology and brain science and for human avatar bot electronic medical records and aging reversal genetics too, and see, for ex.:

https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1558504233388883968 and

https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1631651303964147712.


How might we - Princeton Neuroscience Institute and OCW.MIT.EDU -centric wiki World University and School - explore new ways of publishing (crowdsourced too) fly connectome research in and from a #RealisticVirtualEarth in 3D (think Google Street View with time slider, TensorStore, Google AI etc), #TextInTheSideBar (eg

https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1549819221235732480 AND

https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1578367117933838337, so, new NDimensional digital publishing, but also to paper from a 3D #RealisticVirtualEarthFor ForBrains and ForDrosophila and ForSpecies' Brains?



How we as end users could play with how these neuron cells all work together in different ways, and even phenotypically when appropriate -  Tags incl:
Nerves

Ascending & Descending
Sensory (olfactory, mechanosensory, gustatory, hygrosensory, thermosensory)

Hi Sebastian, I unsubscribed studio@sebastianschmieg.com . Let me know if I missed anything. 


Thanks for your interesting MIT Media Lab talk recently, and here are some notes, chat conversation, and questions (below), which I haven't blogged about yet, but will add today to my daily blog  - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/04/acacia-neriifolia-recording-of-monday.html


Appreciating your pinned Twitter post - 
https://twitter.com/s_schmieg/status/1470502643118358533?s=20 - for its water, soaking, robot vacuum cleaner mashup and regarding my Actual-Virtual Physical-Digital Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project, potentially eventually with robotics even: https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/virtual%20Harbin and https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/robotics.

Friendly Regards, Scott


PS
CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ and School as you may know is planning to be online in all 7151 known living languages as wiki schools for open teaching and learning - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages - and as major online MIT OCW-centric Universities, and in all 200 countries - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States -  also as Large Language Models, that might begin to become 'conscious' - and offer free online MIT OCW-centric on a Google-WUaS education AI platform for free online Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, MD, IB, AA, and Masters' degrees, in each of these countries' main languages. Classrooms and STEM field sites will emerge in something like WUaSunivs in Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI, TensorStore, GTranslate, Wikidata as backend structured knowledge database (in its 300 languages, and in Google's 1000 language project too).

some notes, chat conversation, and questions (below)

How does ‘Prompt Battle’ … differ, or might it, from the emerging Twitter posting conversation - if it emerges with AI, but is perhaps more distributed like the internet, than the prompt battle format?

Join the Future Sketches group on Fridays from 12 – 1pm ET for the Lunch Lectures Spring 2023 edition about Generative AI and artistic practice.

The Future Sketches group is pleased to announce a series of public talks focused on artists working with and thinking about generative AI. The use of generative AI tools has advanced exponentially over the last year and saturated public consciousness. Every day, there’s a new project or approach published. How should visual artists engage with this? What are the ethical implications of these tools? What are holistic means of co-creation as well as pitfalls we should be avoiding? For this series, we’ll be hearing from four artists and designers who have been working through these questions and have essential perspectives on the use and implications of these tools.

Held weekly online (starting February 17, 2023) from 12–1pm ET. Passcode: 141592
