Deep Learning Takes on Synthetic Biology
From The Eponymous Pickle

Deep Learning Takes on Synthetic Biology

Previously mentioned, we experimented with the idea before the current state of machine learning, with a kind of simulation more akin to 'digital twins'.    The...

Quantum Engines?
From The Eponymous Pickle

Quantum Engines?

Interesting proposal.  Speculative?    Relates to laws of thermodynamics brought up recently here. Can entanglement be a fuel?  Consider the implications.   Perfect...

Learning Microwave Ovens

Conversations on Architecture for Digital Twins

Based in part on a conversation with swim.ai   Have yet to look at that service, but plan to.  Seems such architecture would have to be very adaptable.    Linkable...

Generating Photons for Comunications in Quantum Computing Systems
From The Eponymous Pickle

Generating Photons for Comunications in Quantum Computing Systems

Precisely generating photons can be seen as a form of communication, and thus says this can then be beyond just computing.Generating Photons for Communication in...

Singapore Using Facial Recognition Broadly
From The Eponymous Pickle

Singapore Using Facial Recognition Broadly

  Note the focused use, and the automatic disposal of the data after 30 days.   Is this sufficient to sufficiently suppress misuse?   Once again,  it is inevitable...

Towards New Kinds of Search

Towards New Kinds of Search

Like the idea of new kinds of search. How about search with business, data or pattern driven context?  Lots of possibilities.  Google Search gets hum-to-search ...

Exceptions to the Law of Entropy
From The Eponymous Pickle

Exceptions to the Law of Entropy

More of a Science idea, but we actually found it useful to include in creativity work.   And in work that related  to the application of AI to process.   I post...
