The AI with an empathy gap can turn dangerous.

"New research at the University of Cambridge identifies a significant “empathy gap” in AI chatbots, posing risks to young users who often see these systems as lifelike confidants. Highlighting incidents where AI interactions led to unsafe suggestions, the study advocates for a proactive approach to make AI child-safe. It proposes a comprehensive 28-item framework to help stakeholders, including companies and educators, ensure AI technologies cater responsibly to children’s unique needs and vulnerabilities.

Researchers created the empathy gap for AI so that it can turn to feel like humans. The idea is that AI can make customer service missions, and that thing makes it feel like human. There are already services that people can transfer things like salesmen calls to the AI, that discuss with sales agents. The idea is that this thing takes those salesmen's time, and creates more costs to the marketing companies. 

The empathy gap makes also it possible to create computers and simulators that test people's behavior. People like therapists or salesmen can use those simulators to improve their professional skills. But sometimes people don't realize that the empathy gap is much more than some simulator, that tests people's selling skills. 

Ai is a machine. And in machines, all parts must operate without surprises.  The empathy gap means the module, reacts like real people react to things like sadness, but the empathy gap means that the AI can react to things, like verbal abuse. The AI can imitate things like anger. These kinds of things might seem very nice things. 

The problems begin when users connect generative AI with physical bodies. AI is a very good tool for conveying verbal orders to robots. The verbal command that involves abuse activates the empathy module. And then that empathy module can make the robot act like an angry person. 

The AI-based empathy gap is one of the tools that make AI look like humans. This ability makes it possible to create robots that can imitate certain people. This kind of thing makes cyborg-humanoids more trustworthy than we can imagine. Those humanoid robots can have innovative skin, that looks and feels like real skin. 

That thing allows us to create robots, that can play or act on certain people. Intelligence, police, and the military can use those cyborgs in deep-cover operations. And the reason for that is this: those cyborgs don't take money from criminals.

These kinds of humanoid robots can collect data from drug gangs. Or they can deliver information from the enemy HQ. In some wild visions, the enemy commanders can replaced using cyborgs. Those cyborgs can eat regular food like humans. They can operate using biological energy production like cloned electric cells from electric eels. That kind of robot can multiply itself. 

The term Von Neumann machine means self-replicating machine. The "Von Neumann" cyborg can construct copies of itself even using Black&Decker. 

The Von Neumann cyborg can self-replicate. If the robot has access to some factory, it can make copies of itself by using each machine itself. Or it can deliver its production orders to car factory's robots. Then it can just copy its operating system to the descendant. 

The problem is that cyborgs can create descendants themselves. The "Von Neumann machine" means a self-replicating machine. Cyborg can take the robot factory under its control. Or it can use the engineering works to make copies of itself.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
