The 28th Century

The 28th century is unique! Prior to this, discoveries in science, and developments in technology and innovation, accelerated century by century. Then it effectively stopped: every question that had ever been asked had been answered by science, every challenge had been solved by innovation, and time lost its significance.

Climate Change Action: Innovation (COP26 Primer)

 Climate Change Action: #Innovation (#COP26 Primer)

#climatechange #climateaction

Today the world faces a common, and increasing, challenge: rising average global temperatures and significant climate change. The solution requires rapid, large scale, changes to infrastructure, energy management, industry, transport, and the management of land and water resources - globally! In terms of conventional wisdom this appears to be a paradox: is it really possible to make such widespread changes globally and rapidly, without significant disruptions to economies and societies? Probably not: a conventional approach might fail! If we are to succeed then an innovative approach will be paramount. The following document outlines unique innovative concepts that could be essential.

Regulating AI: A practical approach to bias

Here's an automated approach [idea] to dealing with bias in AI. 

Regulatory bodies apply an approach similar to GAN to test bias in an AI system. 

The regulation system presents the AI under inspection with a spectrum of inputs that could be susceptible to bias, and analyses the results.

However, we should also be aware of other potential issues, such as those pointed out in AI Predictions.

Bye bye traditional batteries. Here comes the Super-Capacitor!

New type of electrolyte could enhance supercapacitor performance 

[and replace traditional batteries!]
Sounds very promising: Using the new electrolyte, future supercapacitors may even be able to store more energy than batteries, he says, potentially even replacing batteries in applications such as electric vehicles, personal electronics, or grid-level energy storage facilities.

Perhaps surprisingly, plants do well under solar panels!

Solar and agriculture - some plants thrive under solar panels and the panels benefit as well: win-win

"under the panels is much cooler in the summer and stays warmer in the winters. This not only lessens rates of evaporation of irrigation waters ... it also means that plants don't get as stressed out."

A range of crops perform well in this cooler, shaded, environment.

Basil plants produce larger leaves, kale leaves are longer and wider, and chard leaves are larger. This is key for these crops because farmers harvest the leafy parts of these plants.

The evaporation of water from the crops creates localized cooling, which reduces heat stress on the panels overhead and boosts their performance. In short, it is a win-win-win at the food-water-energy nexus.

At harvest: "We raised the panels so that they were about 3 meters (10 feet) off the ground on the low end so that typical tractors could access the site."

They want to experiment with solar panels that can be moved to completely vertical positions, allowing tractors to move through the rows of panels to get to the soil and crops without having to elevate the panels at all.

Solar panels cast shade on agriculture—in a good way
