Feature fatigue is real and it seems to cause a little bit of stress in a human operator who realizes they cannot use all the features. ... This may or may not be so although we do know that the time is rapidly approaching when...

The Merging of Humans and Computers by Lance Winslow
Soon the human brain will be completely interfaced with the computer. The benefit to mankind will be truly significant. The truth is that Arthur C Clark in his short stories talked about groups of people being connected in real time by neuron transmitting devises below the skin. ... Such a computer, communication, brain interface would be the next logical step as SciFi meets Moore’s Law and MIT completes their latest Media Lab exploit of Nano tech gone wild. ... You might even have all the world’s knowledge and latest research all in a chip connected to your brain.

Should Artificial Intelligent Robots Be Able to Tell Jokes? by Lance Winslow
There are obviously degrees of intelligence and if we are to call human beings, intelligent and I hear some people laughing in the background as I say this, but if we use the human brain as our model to design artificial intelligent robots then, well we have our work cut out for us. ... I was more considering that as humans have companion artificial intelligent robots, android assistants, the human must bond with the artificial intelligent robot and there needs to be an attempt to keep things on a level playing field of respect.

Life Experience Recording to Study Human Behavior by Lance Winslow
Is it possible to record every single aspect of a person’s life? Some say no; others like you may think that it will soon be possible, but you probably are not happy with the concept. What is most interesting is that with all the new technology we already have, it appears it can be done using... Many scientists and many of the common man believe that humans are a combinations of their genetics, intake, brain waves, chemicals in the brain, oxygen levels, experiences and we must realize that while in a linear time life experience how the combinations exist in what percentages may actually...

Data Fusion in Artificial Intelligent Machines by Lance Winslow
Once an artificial intelligent program is set up in a computer or robot with a computer brain, it must then be given a memory or data sets, which it will use thru decision matrixes to arrive at decisions. If robotic assistants are to become all that Isaac Asimov predicted in his Sci Fi works and... If you will observe next time you are at a BBQ, coffee shop or even at a parts counter at a company you will see such human interaction taking place and we must insure that such programming and data sets are within the computer to make it simulate this.

Neural Workflow - Workflow Software by Craig Cameron
A brief discourse on a new workflow software paradigm. I am often asked "why should I use workflow software?" To which I often retort "why use software in the first place?" We use computer systems to make life easier for ourselves, but at a more basic level we use them to replace ourselves. ... Events can trigger signals from all over our brain these events then give rise to strategies for resolutions, over time our brain modifies itself to adopt the strategies it has found to most successfully resolve situations.

The Brain has the Same Problems that Databases Do by Adam Yax
What can the human brain learn from how a database works? There is a battle going on in every database and the same battle in every human brain. The battle is simply Memory vs. CPU (processing). We either rely on indexes to recall data or we count on the CPU to calculate the resulting data. ... Relating data is a very powerful thing, the human brain's incredible recall abilities are directly related to it's ability to "relate" data. ... The theory is that the human brain works in much the same way, the problem is Database Administrators and Developers alike constantly strive to increase...

Human Knowledge Through Social Network Distance Learning to Teach AI to Think by Lance Winslow
Can the human race train the new artificial intelligent super computers of the future to think just like they do? This is a tricky question and it may take a little bit of compromise between the humans and the artificial intelligence supercomputers. In other words the humans will need to modify... If the methodology of thought is similar the artificial intelligent computer may work or mimic the way human brain thinks. ... Are you scared of turning over your civilization’s rule to a super computer with Artificial Intelligence containing all the worlds’ human knowledge?

The Human Side of Data Loss! by Usman Qureshi
