The intelligence of Crows can be impressive. The one on the right is holding a stale piece of bread. In order to soften it, thus making it easier to eat, the Crow would place it on the watery spigot and then press down several times with its beak. The Crow did this a number of times while the one on the left looked on (Probably hoping to get a share of the bread).

Historically, even before IQ tests were invented, there were attempts to classify people into intelligence categories by observing their behavior in daily life. Those other forms of behavioral observation are still important for validating classifications based primarily on IQ test scores. Both intelligence classification by observation of behavior outside the testing room and classification by IQ testing depend on the definition of "intelligence" used in a particular case and on the reliability and error of estimation in the classification procedure.[citation needed]The English statistician Francis Galton made the first attempt at creating a standardized test for rating a person's intelligence. A pioneer of psychometrics and the application of statistical methods to the study of human diversity and the study of inheritance of human traits, he believed that intelligence was largely a product of heredity (by which he did not mean genes, although he did develop several pre-Mendelian theories of particulate inheritance). He hypothesized that there should exist a correlation between intelligence and other observable traits such as reflexes, muscle grip, and head size.He set up the first mental testing centre in the world in 1882 and he published "Inquiries into Human Faculty and Its Development" in 1883, in which he set out his theories. After gathering data on a variety of physical variables, he was unable to show any such correlation, and he eventually abandoned this research.French psychologist Alfred Binet was one of the key developers of what later became known as the Stanford–Binet test.French psychologist Alfred Binet, together with Victor Henri and Théodore Simon had more success in 1905, when they published the Binet-Simon test, which focused on verbal abilities. It was intended to identify mental retardation in school children,but in specific contradistinction to claims made by psychiatrists that these children were "sick" (not "slow") and should therefore be removed from school and cared for in asylums.The score on the Binet-Simon scale would reveal the child's mental age. For example, a six-year-old child who passed all the tasks usually passed by six-year-olds—but nothing beyond—would have a mental age that matched his chronological age, 6.0. (Fancher, 1985). Binet thought that intelligence was multifaceted, but came under the control of practical judgment.In Binet's view, there were limitations with the scale and he stressed what he saw as the remarkable diversity of intelligence and the subsequent need to study it using qualitative, as opposed to quantitative, measures (White, 2000). American psychologist Henry H. Goddard published a translation of it in 1910. American psychologist Lewis Terman at Stanford University revised the Binet-Simon scale, which resulted in the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales (1916). It became the most popular test in the United States for decades.The many different kinds of IQ tests include a wide variety of item content. Some test items are visual, while many are verbal. Test items vary from being based on abstract-reasoning problems to concentrating on arithmetic, vocabulary, or general knowledge.The British psychologist Charles Spearman in 1904 made the first formal factor analysis of correlations between the tests. He observed that children's school grades across seemingly unrelated school subjects were positively correlated, and reasoned that these correlations reflected the influence of an underlying general mental ability that entered into performance on all kinds of mental tests. He suggested that all mental performance could be conceptualized in terms of a single general ability factor and a large number of narrow task-specific ability factors. Spearman named it g for "general factor" and labeled the specific factors or abilities for specific tasks s. In any collection of test items that make up an IQ test, the score that best measures g is the composite score that has the highest correlations with all the item scores. Typically, the "g-loaded" composite score of an IQ test battery appears to involve a common strength in abstract reasoning across the test's item content. Therefore, Spearman and others have regarded g as closely related to the essence of human intelligence.Spearman's argument proposing a general factor of human intelligence is still accepted in principle by many psychometricians. Today's factor models of intelligence typically represent cognitive abilities as a three-level hierarchy, where there are a large number of narrow factors at the bottom of the hierarchy, a handful of broad, more general factors at the intermediate level, and at the apex a single factor, referred to as the g factor, which represents the variance common to all cognitive tasks. However, this view is not universally accepted; other factor analyses of the data, with different results, are possible. Some psychometricians regard g as a statistical artifact.
The Guardians of Akherman - Intelligence Animism And The Universal Spiritual Essence by Daniel Arrhakis (2024)

Animism is the belief that objects, places, and creatures all possess a distinct spiritual essence. Animism perceives all things—animals, plants, rocks, rivers, weather systems, human handiwork, and in some cases words—as being animated, having agency and free will.
If in the past Animism was used in anthropology of religion as a term for the belief system of many Indigenous peoples in contrast to the relatively more recent development of organized religions.
In more recent times Animism has come to be seen as a metaphysical belief which focuses on the supernatural universe (beyond logical foundations and procedures): specifically, on the concept of the immaterial soul or of a universal spirituality that reveals itself in all living materials or not alive.
For Akherman, who belonged to one of the humanist mystical movements at the end of the 21st Century (*) , this animism could be experienced when humanity managed to develop technology so that the experience of this spirituality could be widely lived and felt in animist alternatives virtual spiritual worlds.
Through an artificial intelligent interface, an entire alternative virtual mystical world was opened in permanent recreation with the sharing of mystical and networked experiences.
Through this process, Akherman believed that these experiences and learning could then be transposed to better understand the Real World and, consequently, the Spiritual Universe.
Humanity would thus be forever spiritually linked to the very Universe that created it!
(*) The Ion Mystical World or The Prophets Of Ion is largely based on this animistic conception.

Os Guardiões de Akherman - Animismo Inteligente e a Essência Espiritual Universal
Animismo é a crença de que objetos, lugares e criaturas possuem uma essência espiritual distinta. O animismo abrange todas as coisas – animais, plantas, rochas, rios, sistemas climáticos, obras e criações humanas e, em alguns casos, palavras – como sendo animadas, tendo identidade e livre arbítrio.
Se no passado o Animismo foi usado na antropologia da religião como um termo para o sistema de crenças de muitos povos indígenas, em contraste com o desenvolvimento relativamente mais recente das religiões organizadas.
Em tempos mais recentes, o animismo passou a ser visto como uma crença metafísica que se concentra no universo sobrenatural (além dos fundamentos e procedimentos lógicos): especificamente, no conceito da alma imaterial ou de uma espiritualidade universal que se revela em todos os materiais vivos ou não vivos.
Para Akherman, que pertenceu a um dos movimentos místicos humanistas no final do século XXI (*) , esse animismo poderia ser vivenciado quando a humanidade conseguisse desenvolver a tecnologia para que a experiência dessa espiritualidade pudesse ser amplamente vivida e sentida em alternativas animistas de mundos espirituais virtuais.
Através de uma interface inteligente artificial, abriu-se todo um mundo místico virtual alternativo em permanente recriação com a partilha de experiências místicas e em rede.
Por meio desse processo, Akherman acreditava que essas experiências e aprendizagens poderiam então ser transpostos para uma melhor compreensão do Mundo Real e, consequentemente, do próprio Universo Espiritual.
A humanidade estaria assim para sempre espiritualmente ligada ao próprio Universo que a criou!
(*) O Mundo Místico de Íon ou Os Profetas de Íon é amplamente baseado nesta conceção animista.

It is not AI that we will come to fear, but those who choose the ultra-fusion of humanity with it. They will seek immortality, to become "Superhumans" ascendent above the rest. The dark side of their humanity will be tempted to use this power & resist accountability for its misuse.

Cold fire, you've got everything but cold fire
You will be my rest and peace child
I moved up to take a place near you
So tired, it's the sky that makes you feel tired
It's a trick to make you see wide
It can all but break your heart in pieces
Staying back in your memory
Are the movies in the past
How you moved is all it takes
To sing a song of when I loved
The Prettiest Star
Reconstruction using our artificial intelligence model from an image provided by Chandra X-ray Observatory about NGC 346.
NGC 346 is a star cluster in a nearby galaxy, the Small Magellanic Cloud, about 200,000 light-years from Earth. Webb shows plumes and arcs of gas and dust that stars and planets use as source material during their formation. The purple cloud on the left seen with Chandra is the remains of a supernova explosion from a massive star. The Chandra data also reveals young, hot, and massive stars that send powerful winds outward from their surfaces. Additional data from Hubble and Spitzer is included, along with supporting data from XMM-Newton and ESO’s New Technology Telescope. (X-ray: purple and blue; infrared/optical: red, green, blue)

Intelligence uncovered a weapons exchange between the financier Cerium and the arms dealer Cobalt, where the terrorist cell responsible for the oil platform attack also surfaced. A team from the Special Mission Unit was tasked to kill/capture those at the exchange.
The team from the Special Mission Unit was able to use the heavy foliage to conceal their advance. They reached the meeting location without detection and was able to achieve the element of surprise.
Only two members of the terrorist cell were able to notice the team approaching. They attempted to resist and were killed. The remainder were captured and the team immediately restrained them and moved them to an HLZ (Helicopter Landing Zone) for extraction. The team also prepared explosive charges to detonate the weapons and munitions recovered at the scene.

A small wooden doorway in Prague. I was fairly satisfied with the original photo, but was curious to see what Generative Fill would choose to do if I tried to expand the photo's borders. I'm not an architect, but it seems to me that it is able to "understand" architecture sufficiently to build realistic visual scenarios. Not what the building actually looks like, but certainly a plausible alternate reality.
I also made some Raw Camera adjustments & a few minor touch ups.

If building a successful brand or simply selling your “stuff” depends on creating an emotional connection with your target audience, is emotional intelligence as a marketer becoming as important as the ability to implement marketing tactics?
On March 1, the seventh annual military and federal fellow research symposium featured the independent research produced by members of the military services and federal agencies who are currently serving at think-tanks and universities across the nation. Organized by the fellows themselves, the symposium provides a platform for building greater awareness of the cutting-edge work that America’s military and governmental leaders are producing on key national security policy issues.
With presidential primary season well underway, it’s clear that whoever emerges in November 2016 as the next commander-in-chief will have their hands full with a number of foreign policy and national security choices. This year’s panels explored these developing issues and their prospects for resolution after the final votes have been counted. During their keynote conversation, the Honorable Michèle Flournoy discussed her assessment of the strategic threat environment with General John Allen, USMC (Ret.), who also provided opening remarks on strategic leadership and the importance of military and other federal fellowship experiences.

So a little distance from Goodwood pits found I this location to get an interesting composition………………..
This was an experiment with artificial intelligence - the left hand side of the image needed extending so I used the AI feature in Lightroom/Photoshop to then create a new side so all the hedge until the back of the car came from magic !! The car was then put back in and an attempt to balance the lighting done in Lightroom and a clean up of the line in the road the make it much less appearance as it dominated the scene. It is quite scary what can be created now. It is not perfect but a result of playing around. The road picture is the back lane of the pits at Goodwood but looks totally different now with the treatment on the lefthand side.

temperature's gonna hit at least 120 today, I hear.
what? in napa valley? how do grapes grow in such heat?
napa valley? ha ha. no, this train's bound for death valley. one way.
what? it can't be! I didn't even bring any water!
I suggest you try and find some shade there. if you can. ha ha!
