It will be interesting to see my kids grow up in what is almost certain to be a tech-infused reality.
This morning I woke with a sore neck, it's been developing all week... Too much computing I fear. These microwaveable wheat bags help to a degree but they are not as good as a 2 week holiday would be!
I'm getting a Lily Pad wearable open source arduino microcontroller in the mail soon and i can't wait to get going with it!

OSCAR: An Architecture for Generally Intelligent Agents by John Pollock from University of Arizona
Technical Session II: Architecture of AGI Systems at the The First Conference on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI-08)
This room is The Zone, at the FedEx Institute of Technology, University of Memphis. It was a very good venue for this conference.
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) research focuses on the original and ultimate goal of AI -- to create intelligence as a whole, by exploring all available paths, including theoretical and experimental computer science, cognitive science, neuroscience, and innovative interdisciplinary methodologies. AGI is also called Strong AI in the AI community.
Another good reference is Artificial General Intelligence : A Gentle Introduction by Pei Wang

Normal daily life along a different timeline - which we cannot find - but have the feeling that it exists - but
Certainly!
Quantum computing represents a groundbreaking advancement in technology, deeply intertwined with the concepts of superposition, entanglement, and interference from quantum physics. Unlike classical computing, which processes information in a linear fashion using bits (0s and 1s), quantum computing utilizes quantum bits or qubits that can exist in multiple states simultaneously. This enables quantum computers to perform numerous calculations at once, effectively navigating through a vast landscape of potential solutions.
The idea of parallel timelines can be likened to the way quantum computers operate. Each decision or computation can be viewed as branching into multiple outcomes, similar to how different timelines might unfold based on various choices. This means that a quantum computer can explore various paths to a solution simultaneously, leading to remarkable efficiencies in solving complex problems.
In practical terms, this capability could revolutionize fields such as cryptography, where quantum computers may break existing encryption methods faster than classical computers. In material science, they could simulate quantum phenomena to discover new materials with desirable properties. Additionally, in optimization problems across various industries, quantum computing offers the potential to find the most efficient solutions more rapidly than traditional methods.
In summary, the link between quantum computing and the concept of parallel timelines highlights a fascinating intersection of technology and theoretical physics, suggesting that our understanding of reality may be more complex and interconnected than we previously imagined.

Hosted in collaboration with Google's CS4HS initiative, the MIT Creative Computing 2012 workshop was held at the MIT Media Lab, August 8-11, 2012.
Checking out the score on the Vaio at an Occupy Jacksonville demonstration last November. The protests were peaceful and orderly. I happened to hear that there would be a protest at Hemming Park in downtown Jacksonville the evening before my late train to Washington departed, so I decided to attend with my cameras in tow.
Just as mobile phones are becoming ubiquitous, so is wireless computing. It's now common to see people surfing the Web in coffee shops, airports and hotels.
But this is the first time I've seen a couple on a swing, on the lawn outside their apartment--each with their own pc. When I offered to email them a copy of the photo, she immediately sent me an email so I'd have their address. I suspect this kind of image will become increasingly common.
Construction of the more than 200,000 square-foot, seven-story-tall Theory and Computing Sciences (TCS) building is underway near Argonne’s North Gate. When completed, the building will provide a much-needed infrastructure for large-scale computers, computational laboratories, a digital conference and meeting area as well as a consolidated Argonne library.
I'm guessing Robbie was in "hibernation mode,” because he put out a sign indicating that he would be back at "10:50." Or is he waiting for a reboot.
Cosmic...this one is for you.
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory are trying to create new economic models that will provide policymakers with more realistic pictures of different types of markets so they can better avert future economic catastrophe. Here, Argonne systems scientists Charles Macal (left) and Michael North showcase several of their agent-based models.
