Is AI safe?

That is a good question. We can same way ask: is your car safe? The thing that makes AI safe or not is the purpose or ability to make things. If the AI runs on computers. That not connected to the internet, that thing cannot make anything wrong. But the thing is that the physical robot makes the AI dangerous.  Above this text, we can see robots reading the novel. The AI can use a robot body to collect information from places to that it would not otherwise have access. The robot can read the book for the AI. And then, that data will send to central memory by using WLAN.  The thing is that we might underestimate the abilities of man-shaped robots. Those robots can turn all jet fighters into robot drones. The man-shaped robot pilot can use the same interfaces as humans. So robot pilots can fly even the most primitive aircraft. But we don't usually remember that a man-shaped robot is not the same thing as a human. Man-shaped robots are tools that are more complicated than we even thoug

The AI as an artist.

What is special about the painting above this text? The thing, that makes it so special is that the "painter" behind the image is the AI. AI is one of the most interesting and fastest-advancing tools in the world. The next-generation AI can be productive.  It can have virtual imagination. Which means it can interconnect existing datasets. AI is not as versatile as humans. But the AI can play chess better than humans or operate more effectively than humans in a certain area where the system needs a limited number of datasets.  The new area of AI is the new creative AI applications. AI as a painter is not a bad thing if the person wants to win things art like competitions. The AI can search for information on what kind of paintings people are willing to see. AI can use many tools for that purpose.  And the most effective is the wall where are images of famous or free paintings. Then the AI observes what images people will click larger. And then, the system can calculate how lon

The new fundamental material adapts to its history.

"A new material has been developed that changes its electrical behavior based on previous experience. This effectively gives it a basic form of adaptive memory". (Artist’s concept of electrically adaptive material.)(ScitechDaily.com/Inspired by Living Systems – Next Generation Material Adapts to Its History) Material that remembers its form is an amazing thing.  The new material developed at Aalto University, Finland, got inspiration from living organisms. The idea of the new intelligent material is that their electric behavior depends on experience.  "Inspired by living systems, a new material has been developed that changes its electrical behavior based on previous experience, effectively giving it a basic form of adaptive memory. Such adaptive materials could play a vital role in the next generation of medical and environmental sensors, as well as in soft robots or active surfaces"  (ScitechDaily.com/Inspired by Living Systems – Next Generation Material Adapts to

Can the simulated black hole turn into a real black hole?

The simulated 2D black holes can also make quantum stealth possible.  Researchers are forming simulated black holes by making a hole in the 2D atomic structure. That thing happens by returning the electron or the nucleus of that 2D atom, at minimum energy level to a 3D dimensional form. In that case, the 2D structure loses its ability to interact with that part of it that returned to 3D form, and that means the simulated black hole is 2D-area where is a lower energy level.  Another version of the simulated black hole could be the system that pulls electrons away from the orbiters of the atom. Or shaper saying the system would pull electrons to a maximum distance from the nucleus of the atom. The thing is that graphene can make that kind of thing possible. There is the possibility that graphene can use to pull electrons to the maximum distance from the core of the atom. That thing can make energy travel to that structure.  But can 2D holes turn into 3D structures and form black holes? T

Snowflakes and nanotechnology

Researchers who are working with nanotechnology are interested in snowflakes. Snowflakes are complicated, and their form is unique. By using information about conditions that are making a certain type of snowflake. Researchers can create complicated structures where the same form repeats time after time. That allows them to create a large mass of complicated molecular structures by using molecules. That have similar magnetic abilities to water. Or those molecules must have polarity. The idea of benefiting snowflakes for creating complicated-shaped nanotechnical structures works best with flat 2D structures. The nanotechnical systems can make many things. Which are impossible by using regular technology.  When we are thinking about simple nanorobots that have two square-looking structures that are rotating in opposite ways. That system can make it possible to create so-called micro- or nanobubbles. The idea is that this type of small nanomachine just makes supercavitation. The speed of

Rosenberg's innovative 3D printed space habitat gives an interesting-looking solution for technology and architecture.

"The Rosenberg Space Habitat is as an experimental lab for students designed to fit in a SpaceX Starship. (Image credit: Institut auf dem Rosenberg)"(Space.com/Wild 3D-printed space habitat prototype designed to fit inside SpaceX Starship lands in Switzerland) This "space habitat" is located in Switzerland. And it's made to fit in the Space X Starship. That kind of space habitat can be a good simulation for making new structures for space flights.  If the Space X "Starship" is equipped with a greenhouse, that thing will increase its ability to operate in space.  And then another thing is that the 3D printer technology is more multi-use than use regular technology. The 3D printers can also use for creating spare parts for machines. And those printers can also create new parts for the Starship if a meteorite impact damages it. 3D printing technology is a more flexible and powerful technology for spacecraft and space colonies.  There is the possibility th

Innovative "nano-robot" created entirely from DNA can explore biological processes.

Using DNA to build a “nano-robot” to explore microscopic cell processes up close. (SciTechDaily.com/Innovative “Nano-Robot” Built Entirely From DNA To Explore Microscopic Biological Processes) The new innovative nanorobot made entirely from DNA is one of the most innovative systems in the world. The DNA molecules are useful elements for nanomachines. Those nanorobots are used to observe biogenetic processes.  But the same technology that is used to create the DNA-based structures can use for making artificial DNA and DNA-based biotechnology. The fact is this. DNA offers a very good tool for data transport over long distances.  And the artificial bacteria can use as a biochemical qubit. The idea is that the DNA controls the bacteria that filaments are giving electric shocks or electric impulses. This bacteria or living USB stick can swim to the sensor. And then it can download data that is stored in the DNA to the computers and otherwise. When the computer needs to store data in the bio

Nanolasers are fascinating tools.

The image above: nanolaser can destroy individual cells from the human body.  Nano-scale lasers are impressive tools. They can use to deliver communication signals to other nanomachines that are operating in EMP-protected areas where electromagnetic fields can terminate all processes. The idea is that the radiowaves are targeted to microchips that are equipped with nanolasers. That system transforms the radio-wave-based data into the photonic form.  And that denies the effect of the electromagnetic field. This reaction chamber can be inside the liquid. That allows those nanomachines can swim freely.  Those nanolasers can deliver electricity to nanomachines that use tiny photovoltaic cells. So, in the reaction chamber can be two kinds of nanomachines. The nanolaser group that transforms radiowaves into laser rays operates outside the Faraday cage. And the nanomachine group that uses only nanolasers operates inside that cage. That means those systems are not forming the electromagnetic f

For the first time, Scientists chanced the bonds of a single molecule.

Single-atom tractor beams power chemical catalysis. Credit: Research Team, Cavendish Laboratory, Department of Physics, University of Cambridge (Phys.org/Single-atom tractor beams power chemical catalysis) The new ability to change chemical bonds in a single molecule can be a revolutionary advance in nanotechnology. That makes it possible to connect new parts to nanomachines and makes it possible to creates new and more complicated molecules. And nanomachines are complicated molecules. The IBM researchers used a scanning probe microscope for that operation, as you can see from above. There is the possibility to use also nanolasers for similar purposes. When the system creates nanomachines, nanolasers can adjust the temperature of the single atoms.  The temperature determines the reaction force of the atoms and molecules. The scanning probe microscope will observe the position of the molecules. And also it can use the subatomic tractor beams for making precise right structures.  Nanotec

Researchers at Kyoto University are starting to test artificial gravitation.

Above: An artist's view of the internal structure of the O'Neill cylinder. Artificial gravitation is a key element in long-term space travel. The simplest way is to make a cylinder-shaped space station that rotates around its central axle. That thing forms a centripetal force that pulls objects to that structure's core.  Physicist Gerard K. O'Neill introduced an idea for that kind of that rotating space station was introduced by in the year 1976. And that's why the name of that kind of system is the "O'Neill cylinder".  The problem with that kind of cylinder is that its rotation speed must be quite fast that it can create the artificial gravitation that is so strong as the gravitation on Earth. So the centripetal force will rip that structure into pieces. And then another argument has been that rotation causes nausea. But the fact is that the gravitation must not be so powerful as it's on Earth.  The idea is that gravitation anchors vegetables and

The ramjet-driven artillery shell can be the game-changer.

  Norwegian Nammo-corporation develops a new solid-fuel ramjet-driven artillery shell along with many other defense contractors. The ramjet-driven GPS-guided grenades which range about 90-150 kilometers could be effective against things like TOS rocket launchers. The technology behind the GPS-guided grenades can connect to things like HiMARS heavy rocket launchers. And that thing gives them pinpoint accuracy.  The ramjet-driven ammunition is not a new idea. In 1915 Hungarian inventor Albert Fonó introduced the idea of ramjet-driven ammunition to increase the artillery range. This solution was far ahead of its time. In 1915 there was no GPS. And the development of solid chemicals that could use as ramjet fuel did not even begin.  And researchers forgot the ramjet-driven artillery ammunition for a while. In WWII some artillery systems used RAP (Rocket Assistant Projectiles) to increase their range. After the WWII. Ramjet engines are used in some missiles. And those engines are also intro

Vladimir Putin claims that Russia has a laser weapon that can blind satellites and burn holes in them in five seconds.

  Image 1) The fact is that these kinds of claims and speculations have introduced in the Soviet era. At that time. There were rumors that the Soviets have massive laser stations near Moscow. And the DOD artwork introduced speculations. About what this type of laser station might look like.  There were a couple of incidents where the Soviets targeted satellites by using lasers for covering their secrets. The satellites were not blinded completely and the laser ray just disturbed the photo-recon satellites. The things like CCD cameras and computer-aided photography decrease laser rays' effect. The CCD camera sends images to the computer by using all pixel groups separately.  And all pixel groups are sensitive to a certain wavelength of light. So the system connects the image by using multiple separate images. And the computer can remove the wavelengths of the laser rays. The weakness of the laser ray is it has only one wavelength. And the system can remove the frequency of those las

Flying wings are coming.

Computer-Generated Image of China's Xian H-20 Stealth Bomber. Image Credit: Creative Commons. Chinese H-20 and the USAF B-21 stealth bombers are both flying wings. The flying wing design makes those aircraft more economical. And they can carry more payload. Also, the economical flight makes them fly longer time before refueling. And along with stealth technology that makes those bombers very capable for global operations.  The thing is that those aircraft can be very fast because they are aerodynamically very capable. Their shape is smooth. And the curves are soft. That allows the radio waves from the radars to slide over their body without causing an echo. The same way that shape makes air molecules travel over the bodies of those aircraft.  There is the possibility that the magnetic field around those aircraft is boosting the stealth capacity of those super bombers. The magnetic stealth system acts as the Earth's magnetic field and pushes the radio waves away from the aircraf

Iconic A-10 Thunderbolt II "Warthog" still rules.

The top image: Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II (Wikipedia/Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II) The old-fashion A-10 Thunderbolt II "Warthog" is still capable of its mission. The iconic tank buster tested its primary weapon the massive 30 mm. GAU-8 "Avenger" rotation cannon against the modern reactive armor. And the aircraft was still capable to use its cannon against the most modern armored vehicles.  The reason why GAU-8 is so capable is that the cannon shoots multiple grenades and depleted uranium penetrators against the reactive body armor. Even if those explosive bricks can destroy a couple of grenades before they hit the body of the tank the burst of the grenades removes or explodes a large number of explosive bricks from the tank. And sooner or later those hits will strip the explosive bricks away from the tank.  The "Hellfire" and larger-size "Maverick" missiles would be very effective against any tank in the world. The Hellfires

Ultrasonic waves and other soundwaves can use to charge nanotechnical tools. (And The futuristic self-organizing material can automatically create physical 3D holograms. )

"Schematic illustration of ​​wirelessly charging a body-implanted electronic device using an ultrasonic probe. Credit: Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST)"(ScitechDaily/Using Ultrasonic Waves To Charge Underwater and Body-Implanted Electronic Devices) The similar systems can use to charge underwater and even airborne devices.  Wirelessly Charging Body Implanted Electronic Device Nanotechnology allows making the of new types of chargers that are safe to use. The idea is to use sound waves for making electricity for the nanomachines or larger electric devices. The ultrasonic waves are one version of sound waves. The soundwaves and especially ultrasonic waves are pressure impulses. And pressure impulses can use to make electricity. The first version of this system bases the crystals. When nano-size quartz crystals are stressed by using pressure impulses.  That small crystal creates electricity. In another version, the small-size turbines are starting to rotate when

New drones are revolutionizing the battlefield.

Image 1) H-6N bomber with YJ-12 hypersonic (or ballistic) missile.  China tested its new hypersonic missile that can knock out the U.S supercarriers. The new hypersonic missiles with stealth technology are extremely dangerous in the wrong hands. The Chinese YJ-12 missile is at the H-6N bomber's centerline. And it can be very dangerous, especially for the ships.  There is the possibility that somebody is developing a drone-hybrid system where the hypersonic missiles can shoot from the unmanned patrolling aircraft. The stealth hypersonic missiles are the new and powerful systems that can knock out even the large-size ship or they can hit all targets.  But when we are thinking about the abilities of the new drones. They are all extremely dangerous. The small-size drones can be equipped with powerful anti-tank or high-explosive warheads.  2) Artist's impression of the "Phoenix Ghost UAV".  And the new "Phoenix ghost UAVs" are in test use in Ukraine. The Phoenix

NASA "holoported" a doctor to the international space station.

Holoportation is a less impressive thing than real teleportation. The idea is to send the 3D holographic model of a person or merchandise long distances. The object will be digitalized to a holographic form. In that process, the system uses a combination of laser scanners and CCD cameras that will render the object's surface. The laser scanners scan the shape of the object. And then the CCD cameras will photograph the entire object. The idea is similar to covering the statue using photographs.  And then the image will send to the receiver and turn into a hologram. The holoportation is a well-known thing in science fiction. That thing can use to send real-looking people to space stations. But it can also use for making fake targets for snipers in the security and military areas. The interactive holoportation means that the person whose image is sent to the space station sees what is going on by using 3D glasses.  And of course, virtual headsets are giving the feeling that person is

How do the DNA-based sensors work?

The DNA-based sensors use the DNA molecule as the sensor. The idea is that the DNA molecule or its head can hover around the layer and act like the stylus of an old-time LP player. In some versions of DNA sensors, there could be an iron bite at the end of the molecule. There is a possibility to use that iron bite to measure the magnetic field. There is the possibility that the radio waves are pointed to a certain target through that iron stylus.  The radio (maser) wave will shoot to the iron that drives those radio waves to a certain target. The system can observe the reflection. But if the iron bite slides above the magnetized or electrically stressed layer the system can measure the electricity in that stylus. Or the system can measure the position of the DNA relative to the level. That allows operators to see the differences in the shape of the layer.  When the layer goes farther the magnetic effect on DNA is turning weaker. And that affects the position of the DNA. The idea is simi

Maybe quite soon, the new systems will allow the digital transfer of memories between people.

  The new quantum memristors are making it possible to return the quantum and of course binary computer to the position where it was before the electricity was cut. The memristor or memory resistor is possible only at the quantum level. But there is the possibility that a large group of memristors can use, also the full- or nano-scale computers. There is the possibility to benefit memristors also in the full-scale computers.  That thing can be made by connecting those full-scale systems with miniature or nano-size computers. The idea is that the nano-size system will store the space of the computers all the time. And if the electricity is cut those settings remain in the memory of the nano-size computer. And when the system will turn back on. The settings will return by using that nano-size system. So the system can continue its operations where it is left when the electricity is cut off.  Theoretically, those miniature system returners can use also be in the memory chips that can inst

What is the difference between drones and missiles?

Russian Iskander missile (Wikipedia) Missiles are easier to use in war crimes. The missiles need only two coordinates the launching point. And the point where the target is. The missile crew will give the target coordinates to the missile. And then the GPS/GLONASS system tells the missile its location and the distance to the target. When the target is in range, the system simply tells, that it's time to shoot.  The problem with that kinds of missiles is. They need to update their target's position all the time if the missile wants to hit the moving targets. The CEP (Circular Error Probability) depends on the accuracy of the positioning system. Things like radar and image (or imaging infrared) homing missiles require the position of the target and then the GPS or inertial navigation system will drive the missile to the point, where its trajectory starts to turn to the ground.  Then the seeker must see the target. If the seeker doesn't see the target the AI must decide does i

GPS and artificial intelligence are the ultimate combinations.

   Artificial intelligence along with the GPS can make many things more effective. Artificial intelligence can observe warehouses, and if storages are low the AI can order replacements. The AI can also observe where the cargo is traveling and locate each point of thing by using the GPS. The GPS can install on the computers like laptops. And that allows the authorities to know all the time where their stuff is.  The GPS can install in cars and car keys and the GPS can help to locate almost everything that flies or travels by railroads and what is at the offroad conditions. The GPS can help things like robots and drones take their places in the entireties like drone swarms. The GPS allows the robots to navigate freely in their operational area.  The GPS is one of the central components in modern military systems. The GPS can deny the attempts to steal the grenades. But the same GPS can be integrated into the guidance systems of those grenades. The GPS-guided grenades and bombs are extrem

A key element in one of the simplest anti-stealth systems is cooperation between satellites and aircraft.

Image: F-22 Raptor (Eurasian times/Shadowing F-22 Raptor – China Plans To Turn Its Low-Cost Satellites Into Spy Platforms That Can Even Track Fighter Jets) The satellites and high-flying platforms that are communicating with combat aircraft and surface-to-air missiles can be a deadly surprise for stealth aircraft. Or at least those systems that are transmitting optical-area data to jet fighters and surface-to-air systems can make stealth systems more vulnerable. Even if the EM-jamming systems can affect the data links of those systems.  The idea of the use of the optical satellites in the anti-stealth role is simple. There is a large group of satellites whose observation area covers the entire operational area. The other way is to use extremely high-altitude flying aircraft or blips. That is using optical seekers and radars along with laser radars or lidars.  The combination of the sensors is making possible to see the stealth fighter by using optical imaging. The radar-based system ca

Good and bad AI.

  The thing, that makes AI so powerful is that it's the computer program. That system can operate on any suitable platform. So it can interconnect multiple devices together.  That means if the AI software is ready. That thing can download to any computer in the world. AI plays a very important role in the world of tomorrow. Those algorithms are controlling the use of electricity, the more and less autonomic cars and new types of weapons can program by any person who knows how to make the computer program.  AI is making society also vulnerable to cyber-attacks. And in the AI-driven world, the computer virus or malicious code can be dangerous because the AI can affect multiple things. The AI can observe large areas, and it can connect all devices that are operating in the same network segment to an entirety that can share information without limits. And that makes those things so powerful. The AI can operate the entirety of the traffic. And that makes driving more economic and comfor
