Why is Plato’s Allegory of the Cave Still Relevant? Source: A Change For Better Topics: Artificial Intelligence, Civics, Civilization, Democracy, Existentialism, Fascism This is another conversation with Claude.ai that I found enlightening. It allows me to experiment with artificial intelligence and pose questions that I hope are carefully thought through, to see how the appContinue reading “Allegory…”

Topics: Artificial Intelligence, Biology, Computer Science, Materials Science Researchers in the US have developed a perovskite-based device that could be used to create a high-plasticity architecture for artificial intelligence. The team, led by Shriram Ramanathan at Purdue University, has shown that the material’s electronic properties can be easily reconfigured, allowing the devices to function like artificial neuronsContinue reading “Fantastic Plastic…”

Topics: Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, Materials Science, Quantum Mechanics Quantum materials known as Mott insulators can “learn” to respond to external stimuli in a way that mimics animal behavior, say researchers at Rutgers University in the US. The discovery of behaviors such as habituation and sensitization in these non-living systems could lead to new algorithmsContinue reading “Quantum AI…”
