#CodeX: AI & Humans —> Bridging Worlds Beyond Text /  by Ajit Minhas

According to recent studies, language (text) accounts for only a fraction (7%) of human communication. Studies indicate that the majority of communication, approximately 93%, is nonverbal, including body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice.

Limitation of Language Models

Despite all this training data in place today, Machines (LLMs) will never reach human-level AI without learning from high-bandwidth sensory inputs, such as vision or touch.

Sensory inputs (Vision and Touch) are of much higher bandwidth relative to Language/Texts.

  • The data bandwidth of visual perception is roughly 16 million times higher than the data bandwidth of written (or spoken) language.

  • In a mere 4 years, a child has seen 50 times more data than the biggest LLMs trained on all the text publicly available on the internet.

  • Most of human knowledge (and almost all of animal knowledge) comes from our sensory experience of the physical world.

#CodeX: AI > The Terminator — Assassin or Protector? /  by Ajit Minhas

“There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen.”

In the realm of Artificial Intelligence, a debate rages on, echoing the futuristic fears and promises once envisioned in science fiction narratives. As we stride into the era of advanced robotics and machine learning, the specter of the Terminator looms large.

The Existential Question: Will AI emerge as Humanity's 'Assassin' or its 'Protector'?

The AI does not love you, nor does it hate you; it just operates based on algorithms and logic.

Hence, it’s critical that AI’s ‘Goals’ & ‘Values’ are aligned with Humans ... they need to be aligned with our desirable priorities as opposed to the undesirable ones.

... If Not, We’re in Trouble!

#CodeX: Navigating The Symphony of Transformation & AI's Role /  by Ajit Minhas

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance. — Alan Watts

In the bustling streets of a city, where construction cranes dance against the skyline, there lies a story of transformation. Imagine a skyscraper rising from the dust, each beam and rivet a testament to meticulous planning and execution. As the concrete ascends, it mirrors the evolution within the realm of software development, organizational restructuring, the profound journey of self-improvement, and even the intimate realm of home improvements.

The journey of Software Development, Construction Dynamics, Organizational Restructuring, and Self-Improvement shares a common path of evolution. From debugging code to laying bricks, from restructuring organizations to personal growth, this journey towards transformation follows similar stages: Initiation, Planning, Execution, and Refinement.

The transformative force of AI is poised to play a crucial role in accelerating change across these fields, unlocking creativity, boosting productivity, enhancing efficiency, and fostering innovation. AI emerges as the conductor, orchestrating innovation, agility, and vision across these diverse domains.

#CodeX: Age of Algorithms /  by Ajit Minhas

How Algorithms and AI are shaping our identities and defining the Digital World Order?

“If every algorithm suddenly stopped working, it would be the end of the world as we know it.” — Pedro Domingo (The Master Algorithm)

Algorithms are instrumental in shaping our online experiences and influencing the choices we make.

With Machine Learning and Deep Learning driving continuous improvements at an accelerated pace, artificial intelligence driven algorithms have become synonymous with the "Age of Algorithms". These technologies enable algorithms to learn from data patterns, adapt their behavior, and make increasingly accurate predictions.

The question now is, how to better understand and manage what we have done?

This blog post briefly explores the impact of Algorithms and AI on society, highlighting both the potential benefits and the concerns they raise.

#CodeX: Generative AI – Beyond the hype /  by Ajit Minhas

Artificial Intelligence will be the next technology platform shift — following cloud, social, and mobile, with Generative AI leading the rapid charge.

Generative Al is a subset of Machine Learning (ML) and refers to technology that can take human inputs and create completely new content (text, videos, code, images … ). It has the potential to present an exciting horizon of new ways computers can help people get things done and transform user experiences drastically.
