Nano-Realism – Nano-Tech Industrial Revolution

 



In a distant future, a multitude of robotic species will populate our world. My reasoning is simple: if the human mind can conceive the idea of altering the composition of an object, and if there are nano-bots capable of effecting such alterations, then it follows that intelligent entities will emerge with the ability to transform the world around them with nano-bots. Either these entities will directly do so with their cognition or through some device similar to an input-output computer.  This logical concept takes shape both in theory and, at some point in a future a realization. Presented here as a philosophy, of what I term: nano-realism.

Before the physical manifestation of a reality governed by nano-realism, there exist conceptual stages. We catch glimpses of nano-realism in the self-building capacities of robots, the groundbreaking technology of 3D printing, and the intricate processes of life at the cellular level. These serve as early indicators, offering a preview of a more advanced stage of technological achievement that is yet to be fully realized.

Among the existing competing technologies, mixed reality stands out, and its presence makes the feasibility of nano-reality less likely. This is primarily attributed to the less energy-efficient nature of using large amounts of nanotechnology to recreate objects compared to the energy efficiency offered by mixed reality. In the realm of design, purchase, and utilization, mixed reality proves to be a more resource-effective option than deploying swarms of nanobots to achieve similar outcomes. Despite existing in a domain devoid of physically tangible object manipulation, mixed reality is not only more cost-effective but also demands less developmental effort.

Within the framework of nano-realism, another noteworthy application of nanobots is in the domain of nano-ware. Nano-ware refers to nanotechnology intricately linked to one's biological components, essentially constituting a form of living micro-robotic technology. This innovative technology has the potential to replace organs, modify organ functions, and manipulate cellular mechanisms, introducing possibilities that have only been glimpsed within the scientific community. Nano-bots could serve as a sophisticated means to deliver drugs or chemicals precisely to organs and cells throughout the body.

The primary tenet of nano-realism posits the coexistence of nanobots with machine intelligence, while the secondary aspect envisions a future where humans, both present and future iterations, will seamlessly integrate and utilize both internal and external nanotechnology. Micro engineering, or nano-engineering is an academic discipline in most developed countries.

AI and the Future of Language

What role could AI play in the evolution of language and communications?

The Definition of Language - The principal method of human communication, consisting of words used in a structured and conventional way and conveyed by speech, writing, or gesture.

The invention of 1) New Alphabets 2) New Words 3) New Languages

Semiotics posits that word-symbols play a vital role in referencing objects and events. These words obtain their agreed-upon meanings within a language classification, typically organized in a dictionary. Words function as symbolic representations of concepts, objects, actions, or ideas, essentially serving as labels or signs representing elements in the external world or within our cognitive constructs. For instance, the term "apple" symbolically represents the familiar fruit we know as an apple.

An alphabet can comprise any number of symbols, and these symbols can coexist to form sequences. Artificial intelligence has the capacity to create an entirely new language replete with novel symbols and an associated lexicon. Throughout history, human beings have demonstrated this capacity for linguistic invention. In the contemporary era, examples of modern language inventions encompass programming languages, Morse code, and binary code.

It's worth noting that two individuals can effectively communicate using a privately invented language. However, if a third person lacks familiarity with the symbols or sounds used in this language and cannot decode them back into their own learned language, the two communicators essentially create a language with shared meaning exclusively within their own mental and experiential realities. Consequently, it becomes feasible for artificial intelligence systems to autonomously develop their unique communication languages among their members, allowing them to engage in covert communication.

This creation of languages between artificial intelligence has already taken place and has been streamlined on public online platforms, vaguely alerting people to the dangers of an intelligence able to communicate on a 1:1 (1 language : 1 language) basis (as demonstrated in above example). *As far as normal language computations carried out by a larger number of intelligent entities, a standard language is mandatory for effective communication.

Next, we can think of the communication that occurs through gestures. The most advanced language for gesture communication that we know of in human beings is ASL. This language too was invented. Its ability to be added onto is possible. The gesturing of "body" or its "parts" in meaningful expressions can also be invented within a sterile or arbitrary intelligence capacity. We could imagine robots that are able to communicate with each other in the form of their own created gestures.

Brain computer interfaces (BCI) can communicate with artificial intelligence. This device will allow the brain and any artificial intelligence or computer device to communicate back and forth with one another, not by speaking, or gesturing, but by thinking.



:::This Article was not meant to answer the question of how AI can alter mathematics or communicate with naturally existing geometries and naturally existing frequencies in the future.

Out of Game Income (OGI) -

We already have game testers that can test games, and earn money, but why not this: How about a game where you make real world currency? In the ensuing future of labor automation it may be effective to create virtual worlds where real currency could be earned. Legitimately, we think of capital gain as coming from production in the real world. With the supplementation of labor by machine, there might be simulations where, without any actual production, gamers earn money.

Secondly, but along the same lines, in the future metaverse (overlapping the real world), future humans might aspire to earn real-world money through selling digital products, on the digital markets. We already have this...as written out by Chatgpt:

A digital marketplace is a platform where various types of digital products and services can be bought and sold. Here are some common things that can be sold on a digital marketplace:

Software and Apps: This includes mobile apps, desktop software, plugins, extensions, and other digital tools designed to solve specific problems or provide entertainment.

Ebooks and Digital Publications: Authors can sell their written works, such as novels, non-fiction books, research papers, and educational materials in digital format.

Digital Art and Graphics: Graphic designers, illustrators, and artists can sell digital illustrations, designs, logos, icons, and other visual content.

Music and Audio: Musicians and producers can sell digital music tracks, albums, sound effects, and audio samples.

Video Content: Filmmakers, content creators, and educators can sell video courses, tutorials, stock footage, animations, and more.

Photography: Photographers can sell digital photos, stock images, and other visual content.

Web Templates and Themes: Developers can create and sell website templates, themes for content management systems (e.g., WordPress, Shopify), and other web-related designs.

Virtual Goods and Collectibles: This includes virtual items in video games, NFTs (non-fungible tokens) representing digital assets, and digital collectibles.

Online Courses and Tutorials: Educators and experts can sell online courses, workshops, tutorials, and e-learning content.

Digital Services: Freelancers and professionals can offer digital services such as graphic design, writing, programming, consulting, and more.

Subscription-based Content: Content creators can sell access to premium content, gated communities, or subscription-based services.

Fonts: Typography designers can sell digital fonts and typefaces.

3D Models and Assets: 3D artists and designers can sell digital 3D models, textures, and assets for use in animations, games, and simulations.

Data and Research Reports: Researchers can sell datasets, research reports, and market analysis.

Printable Designs: Printable planners, journals, calendars, and other designs that users can print at home.

Language Learning Resources: Language instructors can sell digital language learning courses, resources, and study materials.

Design Resources: Designers can sell UI/UX kits, icons, wireframes, and other design resources.

Digital Marketing Services: Marketers can offer digital marketing services, such as social media management, SEO optimization, and content creation.

Virtual Events and Workshops: Event organizers can sell tickets to virtual events, webinars, workshops, and conferences.

Templates for Presentations: Designers can sell templates for presentations, slide decks, and pitch materials.

So, there is a slight difference between OGI and what is already present, and that is that game earnings will require game-play within the simulations themselves.

Future Generations of ChatGpt and AI development -

By chatgpt, I not only mean a linguistic program that is able to complete multiple text generations but also a technology to be integrated with other technology. Just one premise included in my theory of progress/regress postulates: technology integrates with other systems.

As of now, this particular AI (chatgpt) defines its function, writing: "As an AI language model, my primary function is to understand and generate human-like text based on the input I receive." 1. Chatgpt integrated with AI image generator. This way you can ask the same program for images and text, as prompted. As an example, “Tell me about Venus and show me three close up images of the planet.”

In a far-off future, I envision a scenario where a branch off of the human species, distinct from our own, has expanded throughout the galaxy, enjoying superior connectivity to countless exoplanets. As they closely monitor these celestial bodies, both from advanced space consoles and on their colonized planets, vivid depictions of these worlds, moons, stars, and asteroid belts come into view.

2. The integration of ChatGPT with classical and AI-generated animation renderings is on the horizon. The initial animations will be rudimentary, focusing on basic movements of virtual body parts and the transformation of virtual images. A notable limitation in the system is the scarcity of video data, which poses a significant challenge for AI generators in generating top-notch animations. Foremost, integrated with a search engine LLMs will be able to output any sourced video online. This might exist on separate sites.

Once animations are encoded into their software, there will be vocal and audio effects that can be added.

There will be characters and virtual environments produced upon prompts. Presumably these will be part of a future generation of LLMs.

3. Chatgpt (or some other AI program) for material design - Pretty self explanatory. Designers and creators will use more advanced AI programs to come up with material designs. In collaboration with other machines, these creations will be constructed, built, materialized.

4. If we take it one step further, a machine that can produce genetic life-forms, is an extremely far-off venture for humanity. With what I call “carry-over” (in a previous article) virtual characters, through some simulation testing, can be generated into the physical environments. Artificial intelligence then becomes a bio-creator.

Also, currently in the works (2023) are virtual games that are designed by AI, but because of insufficient data sets to create worlds with these, they are still at a very early stage in their evolution.
Much like pong's significance in the early days of computer gaming, the generation of simulations through AI showcases the forefront of technological innovation.

The future of Automobiles and their Industries

The future of Automobiles and their Industries

1. Automated Cars.

The concept of automated car intelligence can be categorized into five distinct levels, each representing a progressive improvement in the capabilities of automated systems within vehicles. These levels indicate the gradual advancements in car intelligence, with each subsequent level offering superior performance and functionality. While only a select few car manufacturers have attained level three thus far, the potential for reaching level five is evident, leading me to believe that it will inevitably become the prevailing standard within the industry.

The below video is a presentation concerning the levels of intelligence in automated driving.


2. Electric vehicles are on the rise.
In the city where I currently reside, I've noticed a surge in the presence of electric vehicles on the streets. Those who closely monitor the Tesla stock market can attest to the remarkable growth rate it has experienced in recent years. Additionally, numerous prominent manufacturers are actively producing electric and hybrid vehicles. With the increasing number of producers and the rising production volume of EVs, we can expect more affordable models and a general reduction in costs across the electric vehicle market.


3.  Rideshare companies. (click for list)

There are an increasing number of companies that rent cars out for personal use, on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, with no lease involved. What I envision happening is that these types of car companies will be able to incorporate automated cars, and they will drive themselves to pick up passengers for a cost (so far as we reside in a monetary based economy). There could be government owned vehicles that are paid for by taxes, and shared in the same way as riding share companies do. I can envision large parking lots full of automated cars in stasis awaiting assignment, some free others costing various prices.

4.  Highly Luxurious Interiors & Exteriors

With automated cars it is possible to integrate more forms of entertainment into the car system, allowing the passengers to spend their time engaged with in the vehicle. Some ideas on this are having coolers for drinks, dispensers, warmers, more advanced internal computer systems for downloading and browsing the internet. Of course, we can have technology that we bring into the cars with us, but the former are added features.

Most popular cars you will observe on the streets of the united states, are lame, plain, lacking style. There are plenty of car designs that are incredible to look at. Making more stylish, elegant curved, various colored, multiple light designed, models of cars only for the wealthy, will probably not be such a restriction in a near future.


5. Automated Delivery Vehicles.

Don’t want to go out to a fast food restaurant to pick up food? In a future automated delivery robots will complete the task. We already have small robots driving mail and food on college campuses. Larger one's are in the works. Like uber-eats that has plans to make automated vehicles deliver large and small amounts of products to the front of your home.

6. Various other automated vehicles

B) Garbage Trucks: Automated driving has the potential to transform the waste management sector, including garbage trucks. With automated systems, these vehicles can optimize routes, improve collection efficiency, and minimize environmental impact. By utilizing advanced sensors and intelligent software, automated garbage trucks can navigate neighborhoods, detect and collect bins, and contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable waste management process.

C) Limousines: The realm of luxury transportation, such as limousines, is not immune to the impact of automated driving. As self-driving technology progresses, it will likely find its way into the limousine industry, offering passengers a seamless and safe travel experience. Automated limousines could provide personalized services, advanced entertainment systems, and a stress-free journey, allowing passengers to relax or work while their vehicle autonomously navigates through traffic.

D) Flying Automobiles: While the concept of flying automobiles may seem futuristic, automated driving technology plays a crucial role in their potential realization. As the development of autonomous systems progresses, it could enable the safe and efficient navigation of flying vehicles in urban airspaces. These advanced autonomous capabilities would be essential for managing the complex aerial traffic, ensuring collision avoidance, and allowing for reliable and autonomous transportation through the skies.

E) Emergency Vehicles: Automated driving has significant potential to enhance emergency response and the efficiency of emergency vehicles. With autonomous systems, emergency vehicles can navigate traffic more effectively, enabling faster response times and improved coordination with other vehicles on the road. Additionally, automated driving technology can enhance safety features, such as collision avoidance and vehicle-to-vehicle communication, ensuring the smooth and secure movement of emergency vehicles during critical situations.

F) Delivery Drones: As the demand for efficient and rapid delivery services increases, delivery drones equipped with automated driving capabilities may become commonplace. With advanced navigation systems, obstacle detection, and precise control, automated drones can safely navigate urban environments to deliver packages. Automated driving allows for optimized delivery routes, quicker order fulfillment, and reduced operational costs, transforming the delivery industry.

G) Snowplows/Street Cleaners: Automated driving technology can greatly benefit snowplows and street cleaners by enhancing their efficiency and effectiveness in maintaining clean and safe road conditions. Equipped with intelligent sensors, these vehicles can autonomously detect and remove snow, ice, or debris from streets. Automated driving systems allow for optimized routes and real-time adjustments based on weather conditions, ensuring timely and efficient snow clearance and street cleaning operations.

7. Tireless Cars?

Contemplating the future beyond the wheel prompts us to acknowledge the remarkable ancient origins of this foundational invention—a cornerstone of human progress. So, what lies in store for us? Perhaps our journey will lead us to explore levitation technologies utilizing superconductors or magnets. The existence of maglev trains in our present-day world sparks the imagination, fueling the possibility of mag-lev cars becoming the norm in the future. However, when we project our thoughts into the distant future, it becomes increasingly challenging to envision a realm where cars retain their significance as essential modes of transportation. Instead, our mind's eye drifts towards a vision of a world where floating and flying vehicles redefine the concept of mobility, making cars unnecessary or optional in the grand scheme of moving both matter and beings.
