How good are them simulations going to get?

 

They are rapidly increasing. Data is deduced and doesn't have to be gathered from the environment alone.

 

Virgo Consortium - Wiki

"Science goals:
The science goals of Virgo are to carry out state-of-the-art cosmological simulations. The research areas include the large-scale distribution of dark matter, the formation of dark matter haloes, the formation and evolution of galaxies and clusters, the physics of the intergalactic medium and the properties of the intracluster gas.

Virgo's current resources:
Virgo has access to world class supercomputing resources in the UK and Germany, including the dedicated "Cosmology Machine" at Durham, which was refreshed at the beginning of 2011 and now has more than 3000 cores, 14 Tb of memory and 600 Tb of disc storage. To date the Virgo consortium's largest calculations have used supercomputers in Germany at the RZG and LRZ at Garching and most recently at the FZ at Juelich."

 

Is is false to think we can clone bodies but not minds as well,

or make simulations or make simulation copies of galaxies and will not be able to do the same for humans.

Hyundai Blue Link To Debut Smartwatch App With Voice Recognition At CES 2015

 

 

 

http://www.prnewswir...-300013816.html

 

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Jan. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Smartwatch sales are skyrocketing and starting early in 2015 Hyundai owners will be able to connect with their cars using these wearable devices and the Hyundai Blue Link® smartwatch app. Hyundai will debut and demonstrate the Blue Link smartwatch app at Pepcom's Digital Experience and at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES®). Pepcom's Digital Experience takes place before CES on Jan. 5 and Hyundai's exhibit (North Hall, booth #2818) at CES will be open Jan. 6-9, 2015. Hyundai's cloud-based Blue Link platform allows features like remote start and service information to be quickly accessed through devices like smartwatches and smartphones. Hyundai partnered with Station Digital Media to develop the Blue Link smartwatch app.

"This new app expands Hyundai's exploration into how wearable technology and Blue Link fit into a customer's lifestyle," said Barry Ratzlaff, executive director, customer connect and service business development, Hyundai Motor America. "Connecting to your car through a smartwatch and voice recognition was previously something seen only in science fiction movies.  Now, we can provide this capability to owners of Hyundai vehicles equipped with Blue Link."

The app is easy to use. The wearer simply taps an icon or uses voice commands to execute remote functions. The Blue Link smartwatch app allows Hyundai owners to remote start, lock and unlock doors as well as find their car in a crowded parking lot. Pushing the microphone icon on the watch activates the voice function, where the driver can execute commands such as "Start my car," "Lock my car" or "Find my car."

The Blue Link smartwatch app must be paired" more...great article

CES 2015

 

 

Wearable technology will not be limited to obvious gadgets, and 2015 is predicted to be the year when smartclothing finally becomes a reality beyond light-up Christmas jumpers. Once the domain of elite athletes, smartclothing is slowly filtering down the high street.

Clothing brands such as Adidas, Under Armour and Ralph Lauren, which showed off its new smartshirt at the US Open tennis tournament, are starting to make sports tops with built-in heart-rate and respiration monitoring.

floating solar thermal power plant

you know an invention's good when you say " why didn't they think k of that before?"

 

 

A floating solar thermal power plant conceptualised and implemented indigenously will be inaugurated next week at Rajarhat near Kolkata. The pilot project has 10 KW capacity.

The experimental project, the first such floating solar power plant in the country, has been promoted by the Union Ministry of Renewable Energy and conceptualised by city-based Arka Renewable Energy College.

The power generated would be supplied to the West Bengal State Electricity Development Corporation Ltd. The plant has been set up at a water body provided by the New Town Kolkata Development Authorit" More

Floating solar plants could be amazing on the equatorial seas which cover most of the earth.

Measurement capability increases

 

nonlocality in 3D plasmonic systems can be accurately analyzed

 

 

"The ubiquitous van der Waals interaction – a consequence of quantum charge fluctuations – includes intermolecular forces such as attraction and repulsion between atoms, molecules and surfaces. The most long-range force acting between particles, it influences a range of phenomena including surface adhesion, friction and colloid stability. Typically a simple task when parallel surfaces are further apart than 10 nanometers, calculating van der Waals forces between, for example, a pair of nanospheres less than five nanometers apart becomes quite difficult. Moreover, the latter scale requires that the effect of nonlocality (the direct interaction of two objects that are separated in space with no perceivable intermediate agency or mechanism) be considered, introducing complexity into, and thereby further hampering, analysis.

Mind Blowing 3D

 

http://www.dailymail...-disasters.html

 

 

The VuePod creates images using point data from aircraft equipped with lidar (laser-based radar).

The lidar scans the landscape and records millions of data points that are then viewed as an image on the VuePod.

Point data can also be created from stitched-together photographs taken by low-cost drones.

One set of data currently available for study in the VuePod captured a canyon area beneath a plateau in southern Idaho.

With 3D glasses and the Wii controller, a user can virtually drop down into the canyon from above, and then fly from one end to the other."

Scientists Discover the First Protein That Can Edit Other Proteins

 

The image above, published today in the journal Science shows a totally different way of building a protein. The yellow blob is a protein called Rqc2 that’s doing the job normally done by messenger RNA. It is connected to the transfer RNA (the blue and light green blobs), telling the ribosomes (the mass of white curls) to insert a random sequence of amino acids into the protein string.

This isn’t a case of a protein going rogue. It seems to be part of the recycling process that occurs when there’s a mistake in a protein being built. When an error is introduced, the ribosomes stall and call in a group of quality control proteins, including Rqc2. In observing this process, the researchers saw how Rqc2 links up with the transfer RNA and tells it to insert a random sequence of two amino acids into the chain (out of 20 total amino acids)."

Massive Leap for A.I.

 

more on robots learning just by watching stuff online

 

 

http://venturebeat.c...youtube-videos/

 

"29th annual conference of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.

The demonstration is the latest impressive use of a type of artificial intelligence called deep learning. A hot area for acquisitions as of late, deep learning entails training systems called artificial neural networks on lots of information derived from audio, images, and other inputs, and then presenting the systems with new information and receiving inferences about it in response.

 

The researchers employed convolutional neural networks, which are now in use at Facebook, among other companies, to identify the way a hand is grasping an item, and to recognize specific objects. The system also predicts the action involving the object and the hand.

 

To train their model, researchers selected data from 88 YouTube videos of people cooking. From there, the researchers generated commands that a robot could then execute."

 

Does seem like much but

 

1) if software can learn from videos online, it can (and has eg Watson) learn from almost any data on-line. Software system exist to extract information and convert it to ,000s and 111's and vice versa.

 

The Hollywood films of the future will be written by robots in about 5 seconds and they will have trigger points plots and characters much more interesting than humans can now do.

 

2) Consciousness/Sentience - self-awareness is an inevitable consequence of better modelling capability,  so these systems will be conscious.

 

At some point in or before the 2020's the robots will further their own goals, being able to predict what men want and where they are dangerous.

Asimov's 3 Laws of Robotics written in 1942 & based on the Nazis are:

1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.^[1]

Like many philosophers  Asimov was a recluse and thought a lot about how to contain robots. Visionary Eliezer Yudkowsky's Machine Intelligence Research Institute - Wiki has struggled with safety of emergent systems for decades. The Extinction Risks from A.I. are incalculably big and research into it serious but near impossible

 

 

Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies

 

 

Robots that learn just by switching them on is a massive first step. Their self-improvement rate accelerates.

 

 

 

As there is no upper limit to intelligence, and it affects everything else,  it has to be seen as a fundamental force in physics (which is is not presently)

 

'The development of full AI may spell the end of the human race'

Microsoft's A.I.

 

http://www.sciencech...nce-arrives.htm

 

this is a few years old

 

 

"Designed as the next-generation source of interactive science information on television and on the web, Brink is the premier series for immersing viewers on the frontlines of cutting-edge breakthroughs in technology, research, inventions, discoveries and the mysteries of the scientific world.

The series explores people who are on the brink of changing our lives, and will also include content generated from scientists, organizations, universities and viewers from around the world.

The series provides viewers with a clear understanding of the impact and relevance science has in our lives today, and offers significant insights into how science may profoundly change our lives tomorrow.

Each half-hour episode combines short-form reports on the latest global science news with vital interviews with prominent scientists. Brink's innovative format will also include unusual segments covering a range of subjects from peculiar, avant-garde research to "backyard inventors" who are pushing the limits of science in their own way - such as building their own space craft."

How long have we got?

 

possibly 15 years

 

 

What can we do?

The only realistic way to survive is to get to Superintelligence first and make sure its contained. That would then neutralize all other projects and protect us from other survival risks.

Government's policy has been the opposite since the 1970's  ie to dissuade any attempts at general purpose A.I.

eg by pulling funding (AI winters) and other methods.

 

People who lobbied on this have been dismissed as cranks, even though some were/are great minds.  People have different capacities - not everyone has foresight

Tech Times robots watch videos

 

http://www.techtimes...-masterchef.htm

 

Researchers have developed a way for teaching robots how to properly use tools by having the robots watch videos on YouTube.

The researchers that developed the method are from NICTA, which is Australia's Information and Communications Technology Research Centre of Excellence, and the University of Maryland. The researchers published a paper regarding the study, which the team will be presenting within the month at the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence's 29th annual conference.

The demonstration of the work of the researchers shows the latest breakthrough in using a kind of artificial intelligence called deep learning.

 

 

Acquisitions in deep learning technology have been increasing lately, as companies and businesses foresee the importance of the technology in the future of robotics."

Algorithms that can 'see' images on the Web

Look up "cow" and match content data base; add all other shape items; sample then predict scenario. Select best response.

 

"Computers can’t really “see” the content of images on the Web. They can only read the text that’s attached to them. That’s changing.

Thanks to smartphones, photos are the new language of the Web. Each day people upload 1.8 billion new images to the Internet. The only problem with all that pic-sharing? The Web’s entire infrastructure is built around text. (Even Google’s image search function relies on text to identify images.) So how do we search, sort, browse, and navigate a rapidly growing sea of images? We teach our computers to actually see them. As you can imagine, that’s no small challenge.

Nor is it new. Academic researchers built a “convolutional neural network” architecture in the 1980s, but those early computer-vision algorithms weren’t very powerful (or useful) running on conventional processors. Programming them to run on modern graphics processors—the kind used by video games rendered in 3-D—changed everything. That happened around 2009. “A super-nerdy discipline in academia is now becoming an important way of understanding the Internet,” says Shaun Zacharia, chief technology officer of TripleLift, a startup that’s using computer vision to optimize digital ads. TripleLift is one of many companies that are pulling the Web’s billions of untagged, unsearchable images out of the dark." more

“I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

 

Non-living events, aeons past, and people who are events called 'living', are expected to be resurrected to full functionality, and general ones (of genres) have already been achieved. It is thought we will be able to resurrect a non-specific tribe of Neanderthals since completing their DNA in 2012. This is not yet a specific brain but it is easier to see that this may become possible as archaeology unearths the past by probability and causation to levels that seemed impossible one generation of 20 years ago.

Given enough machine complexity, future people may find simulating this universe is easy on a personal computer- including all its peoples to date. Despite our egos screaming otherwise, these resurrectees must be indistinguishable from the real thing under Ettinger's maxims of identity.  Once the quantum archaeological grid is drawn, any number of a specific dead person could be manufactured, a complete simulation of their consciousness from conception to death written down or run as a computer program, and would be demonstrably authentic at the point of revival. There are huge and growing record bases that can help, some reaching back millions of years.

As we reconstruct given histories they provide a platform to go back further, since each human mind is a library.

The processing power is already here for the surface work, the mathematics already in place, but sufficient technology not expected for 20-40 years. That is a wide time-frame in accelerating technology. The problems of resurrecting over 106 billion dead people since 50,000 B.C.E. into the modern world may look ridiculous, but in a few decades what is possible will have multiplied by many factors. As to housing, the universe is full of space, and dimension distortion in your own apartment may come. Some people say they dont want to be resurrected but this is the Lazarus Long Delusion explained later. When people cite possible problems after resurrecting, the essential idea has been understood and scientists should begin the work.

We are attempting to label all things manufactured by men as the Internet of Things which is slowly covering the globe. Bar codes are being put on items by description, and those descriptions may become specific enough to re-engineer any of them - including moving ones as 3D printers move into the home and connect to the internet. Things are progressively built by machine systems planning and designing them; which forces innovative mathematics and startlingly good model-driven software. At some stage voice commands to a portable device will be enough for most things to be assembled in front of you at speed, and objects once of great value will become disposable and recyclable. The wave may bring excellence enough in high technology for the manipulation of quantum archaeological data. Demand may get program makers to have ancient artifacts and people available to download as programs to your home assembler, subject only to payment and legality. If this seems science fantasy, its precursors are already being used and computing power is the main thing holding it back.

This paper highlights the accelerating progress of technologies and sciences, not only in archaeology and reconstructing the past, but generally, with advances like self-driving cars, printed body parts, quantum teleportation (transporting over distance, now done routinely) and invisibility cloaks.

It looks at the implications of quantum archaeology, the three main objections to it, and offers defeats. The objections are briefly:

1. Information is irrecoverably lost or there's too much of it to make sense:

    -  defeat: -  archaeology recovers information and by accelerating methods. QA is not attempting infinite recovery, but  between the atom and the body, generally.  One quantum computer is expected do more than all classical computers combined. All possible deceased's memories could be calculated initially, and QA will reduce these to the few then the one by probability and causation. Ettinger (cryonically suspended) nearing ninety thought there might be a Law of Conservation of Information and nothing is lost in the universe, though his search hadn't found it. Leonard Susskind, an originator of string theory    states "information is incapable of being destroyed - that is the deepest physics I know" ^^^ (and  Stephen Hawking conceded that information cannot be destroyed using multiverse theory).

2. Entropy says the universe is not reversible therefore no local part of the universe is reversible. When brains decay, part of their descriptions are lost as thermodynamic heat and there is no known way of retracing it.

    - defeat -  M Theory implies other universes: energy for reversal can be created or siphoned from  the multiverse;  local parts may therefore be reconfigurable because there will be enough energy to do it. The entire universe is debated as a simulation. If so, the universe is logically reversible for the burgeoning numbers of events in the present all trace to similar histories in the past: they are like branches of trees all tracing to common trunks. They are not unit events but classes of reversible laws with limits.

     Further QA isn't relying on total information reconstruction from surviving fragments but the construction of the quantum archaeology grid which sources events before, after and adjacent to a given person's timeline and works by logically deduced reconfigurations. It isn't seeking the actual particle that made the deceased's brain, but multi-time pathways that made those particular brains inevitable.

3. Quantum Theory proves Cause & Effect are obsolete so we'll never know the past.*

   - defeat - The world can be described pretty much causally using Many Worlds Interpretation��  and Einstein who could be called a superdeterminist could be right, causality underpins nature. The fact a brilliant probability science is giving astoundingly good predictions is a triumph for probability science not a refutation of determinism, which the  MWI reinstates, dismissing probability cloud observer collapses by quantum decoherence. Even allowing quantum probability alone, closed and unobserved quantum systems are demonstrated to be both predictable and reversible. (See also 2012 Nobel Physics Prize"for ground-breaking experimental methods that enable measuring and manipulation of individual quantum systems").  Debate rages about how to capture the laws of the quantum realm, and camps traditionally oppose each other, some believing causation, existing,  too complex and too quick for mankind. Nature has had infinite time for infinitely deep complexity predating our universe. Einstein was more hopeful of finding a way and dismissed quantum theory as a lack of perspective. Quantum Archaeology does NOT need to go infinitely small scale to complete its grid, and most quantum theory is irrelevant to it.

There is enough material to make quantum archaeology a separate research area for the pay-off is high. Any strong university that has social sciences, sciences and philosophy could attempt it.

As the quantum realm has yet to be thrashed out, this paper will argue the limits of science: that deceased Man is built by and therefore retrievable by its absolute laws: no-one and nothing may exist outside them. It will also attempt to argue that extropian resurrection is a greater more powerful philosophy, than the brute will of the Nietzschean and Marxist schools - both myopic following of Darwin - and QA must inevitably lead to recursive civilization on rising Kardashevian scales.

Heidegger's assertion 'death must be accepted in order to be free.' is refuted by the extropian school. Death never was. Death is an illusion. There is no strict freedom since everything is bound by law. Higher degrees of mobility evolve as responses to the environment and the compatibility argument ends the conflict between free will and determinism:- they are different perspectives on a system that owns its  qualian self.  The quantum world may yield a wider explanation of surely wondrous complex causality but is in its infancy, and causality is on detention there! Human intelligence, as memory modification at ion speed, hasn't yet (2013) been passed by artificial general systems good enough to fool a blind man playing Turing's imitation game.

Massive life extension looks viable and resurrection theory is running after it. The mathematics and technologies needed are covalent.  Cryonics is presently the best way of preserving organic data, and it would be foolish indeed not to use it, but comprehensive scanning technologies are sure to emerge eg from sonics, electromagnetics and internal mapping by nanobots. They will not be needed if QA is correct but it is a futurist and unproven idea until its researched, and no university department has dared include it.

Archeologists discover Mythical Tomb of Osiris, God of the Dead, in Egypt

 

 

 

 

"A Spanish-Italian archaeological team, in cooperation with the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities, has made an incredible discovery in the necropolis of Sheikh Abd el-Qurna, on the West Bank at Thebes, Egypt – an enormous ancient reproduction of the mythical Tomb of Osiris as described by Egyptian legend, complete with multiple shafts and chambers. Inside the tomb complex, researchers found a carving of Osiris and a room with a wall relief depicting a demon holding knives.
