i've gotten several requests to expand and further explain the new ERT. Here is the first in what I suspect will be several posts in that vein.
I write futurist fiction from time to time. In this one a future where Machine Intelligence (AI) decides there will be no more war.
I publish this article frequently this time I am expanding the knowledge of Scams with a model to avoid them.
The ERT represents 30 years of my IT career. It is a model designed to help organizations build better and more effective applications.
There is a line from the Big Bang Theory about the perfection of inside. The question is how far away are we from the perfect indoor experience>?
The reality of autoonomous cars may actually help you more than you realize.
I watch the rise of AGI, and I wonder.
Wandering technology that will be big in Calendar year 2024!
Search and more connectivity drove the early internet growth. What is the killer application for Machine Intelligence?
There are many limiters to AGI, luckily some are very short term.
WHy hasn't AGI appeared yet? Well in this article we look at two factors that I believe limit AI today.
The technology is begin reducing Carbon Outputs is here now. We can reduce the impact of humanity on climate change now!

I have often been asked how I can apply the ERT to a specific organizational problem. In this piece, I walk you through using the ERT!
i know I've talked about this before, but it drives me crazy. There are no products currently powered, actually powered by Machine Intelligence. It is a marketing phrase and honestly means nothing.
Many homes will have more than 50 devices talking on the internet in the future. What do you mean? That is crazy!
Like with Education the goal of my recommendation is to augment what Doctors do, not replace Doctors.

People ask me frequently what if Machine Intelligence systems replace humans. I have two distinct answers...
Continuing my conversation on the concept of Machine Intelligence Augmenting human beings.
Why is it there, Father? It is not a question that we are trained to answer. Since the great collapse, it has always been there. There is no why to the Barrier, just that it is there.
The concept of replacement is one I don't think will happen. But augmenting the capability of humans? That I think Machine Intelligence will do very soon.
Let me start with a little Chicago History. The Field Museum of Natural History was once on the actual shore of Lake Michigan.
Will Machine Intelligence replace humans? It is the question I discuss in today's essay.
Should i fear Machine Intelligence?
Two questions again as we head into the 10th issue of Volume 1
i wonder what rights a future AGI deserve? I think a future AGI should have all rights a human does. I am not just saying this so that future Robot Overlords won't kills me. Nor is this written by a chatbot!
Two more questions in the Volume 1 series!
The following was written by a Chatbot. Or was it?
Should there be an ethical boundary around the use and reuse of copyrights?

Walking through the biological concept of Mutualism as it applies to AI.
Moving past the art of the possible to the future can be hard. To make it easier, I built a framework I use. In this article, I lay out how the framework is used and give a couple of use cases to apply the knowledge!
I took a look at the reality of online voice translation and offline voice translation. I have to say I was surprised.
It will be an interesting ride as Electric Vehicles grow in market share. But let's at least remove some of the marketing hype!
An idea I have around improving the Brain Computer Interface

In our discussions of 5G cellular networks, it isn't about how many bars you get in different places around the country you live and travel. It isn't about the latest devices and the lowest prices. It is about how reliable the cellular network is.
I have been a citizen scientist for many years. It is such a great joy to discover things I didn't know.
You always see ads about most 5g bars and most coverage. But coverage is only important if you are also getting a reliable connection.
I fear that the first encounter between a human and a self-aware MI will be one of fear. I hope it is not, but that scares me a bit.
I often look at and consider several technologies. Today we have three to consider. Two are coming eventually and one is available right now.
Lots of information on the internet and not all of it is good. What can I do to find good information?
There is a group advocating the merging of existing cellular phones and Satellite phone services. It is truly an interesting concept.

I am a huge fan of machine intelligence (sometimes called AI), but there are aspects that make me nervous.
There is a cost and a risk to AI. But sometimes people focus only on the bad, without considering the good. So, let's talk about that...
I want to start by saying I am not a gun control person. I am just worried that a really cool technology, 3d printing, is being used for a really bad thing Ghost Guns.
The internet was built originally to share information among scientists. What we need now is an internet all can access, freely.
I can see a future in the near term where more and more autonomous cars are on the road.
Machine Intelligence (AI) will take our jobs! (Do humans really want the jobs that Robots and MI will take?) But in the end it is all about the moment of awareness. What do we do then?
A very quick survey of short term, available now benefits for a 5g network. The list is growing, and i haven't shared all of them!
The problem is education is not the teachers. It is not just a lack of education. Sometimes it is simple that we need to do more!
I have long had a passion for education. For helping, schools built the young minds of tomorrow. We could, with a little effort, make schools powerful tools in the future!
What would you take? I used to ask 2nd graders that question and got some pretty amazing answers. What would you take for a three years trip, knowing you couldn't stop and buy missing things when you got there?
I keep hearing people say we've reached the information age. But I know there are massive silos of information I can't consume. How can we be in the age of access to information, when I can't access information?
