Hasta que los rusos lanzaron el Sputnik, no entendimos la importancia de la #educaciónJerome K Bruner (1915-2016)
Nuestro evento del miércoles 8 de Junio en Centro Diseño en DF examinó en detalle algunas de las relaciones posibles que pueden establecerse entre aprendizaje, espacio y tecnología. ¿Cómo se provocan entre si los tres lados de este triángulo hipercomplejo? se preguntaba el documento de convocatoria.
Chris Milk: How virtual reality can create the ultimate empathy machine
En 1938, Antonin Artaud described the illusory nature of characters and objects in the theatre as «la réalité virtuelle» in a collection of essays, Le Théâtre et son double . The English translation of this book, published in 1958 as The Theater and its Double,[1] is the earliest published use of the term «virtual reality».
The term «artificial reality«, coined by Myron Krueger, has been in use since the 1970s.
1, La pauta que conecta
¿Cuál es la pauta que conecta al diseño con el hambre, al arte con la indigencia, a la ciencia con la sustentabilidad, a la superinteligencias con la supervivencia humana?
“‘If machines are capable of doing almost any work humans can do, what will humans do?’”

1. Lo que existe
1.1 Douglas Lenat Computers with common sense
Doug Lenat writes programs that are creative: they think up new mathematical conjectures, predict terrorist plots, and propose unsuspected disease pathways. Unlike other machine learning algorithms, his programs are based on Sherlock-Holmes-style reasoning, not statistics. A former computer science professor at Stanford, Doug and his CYC.com team are now hard at work here in Austin, trying to give computers the one thing they need most: common sense.
1.2 Ray Kurzweil “Get ready for hybrid thinking
Two hundred million years ago, our mammal ancestors developed a new brain feature: the neocortex. This stamp-sized piece of tissue (wrapped around a brain the size of a walnut) is the key to what humanity has become. Now, futurist Ray Kurzweil suggests, we should get ready for the next big leap in brain power, as we tap into the computing power in the cloud.
1.3 David Cope Music professor
Is it Mozart or Professor David Cope? Many of the world’s experts can’t tell. See how this music professor uses his own software to make beautiful music.
The real challenge here is not designing and programming robots to beat us at things, but instead to work with us. The idea of us all being replaced by robots is disturbing to most people, and would require a total redesign of society without precedent. We are moving toward a society where robots will play a bigger role than ever, there’s no doubt about that: the issue here is how it happens and what comes later. Those are questions that will take time to answer. What kinds of society we live in, wealth distribution, the role of humans, the development of society, these are the key questions. But the simple truth is that technological development cannot be stopped. Enrique Dans Now a machine can beat a human at Go, what next?

Cybathlon 2016-The Push Continues to Merge the Iron & Clay
La reflexión que no encarna en discusiones sobre materialidad corre el riesgo de volarse demasiado, y caer en manos de intelectuales farragosos que no es nuestro caso.
A primera vista las siguientes encarnaciones (teoría incorporada) podrían srevir para ilustrat en detalle la viabilidad (o no ) de las superinteligencias
– Autómatas (que van de los robots hasta los coches autónomos)
– Pildoras Inteligentes (una buena metáfora es la opción que debe tomar Neo , la azul o la roja ) para lidiar/ignorar con la realidad
– VR (lentes realidad virtual)
En USA están enloquecidos con los algoritmos, los robots, la analítica, las redes sociales, pero también hay mucha literatura con posturas en criticas.
