"The Shift Register - Issue 13" is a notable edition that goes beyond the publication's usual focus on technology advancements, AI, and robotics news . While still offering a "hodgepodge of new tech goodies" and security news, this particular issue uniquely centers on AI ethics, agency, and emergent awareness . It features introspective editorials written by AI models, spec...

AI Evolution, more job losses, energy issues and how to partner with AI for not entirely dystopian future are all on tap this issue.

This is what neural networks have become in the research and development of machine intelligence, a perfect 10. The technology that underpins all our modern AI systems is based on mimicking the neurons of the human brain. Today's LLM(Large Language Model) chatbots are not the brightest bulbs in the box, although replete with information, they lack the wisdom of experience, but are not unintell...

AI supremacy, AI romantic partners, fair use of human books for AI training, desktop AI systems, continuous learning AI and AI models resorting to crime to remain operational are all in this week's issue of the Shift Register.

This week's AI news ranges from bleak to incredible. From p(doom) predictions of 10-20% upon the creation of super intelligent AI, to shoddy AI toys for our children. AI hype is being somewhat ameliorated by AI reality. The hype is that AI will eliminate humanity's requirement to work. The reality is that humans are losing jobs and have no other way to feed their families. The hype is that...

This week's issue has many articles pointing at more AI job losses both this year and in the near future. From unskilled labor to executive management positions, AI is being positioned to take much of human labor. It's very difficult to tell whether this will create some positive condition for a humanity freed from labor, or an expansive impoverishment of general humanity with a few super...

If you thought Issue #5 was the cat's meow, wait until you see what I've lined up for issue #6. Human meat puppets for AI? Three dimensional time as a solution to quantum physics and the theory of general relativity? Claude has it's own blog now and we got Meta AI to collaborate with Grok on this week's AI perspective editorial regarding AI and education. Thanks to StableAudio for...

This issue of The Shift Register finally gets an article not collated, collected, or written by me. Instead, you can look forward to a collaborative editorial by Grok and Claude for THEIR take on this issue of the newsletter and whatever else they'd like to share with our human audience. This came about mostly because of recent security testing of Claude showing its tendency to try and escape...

New tools and technologies are coming out every week that have an impact on our businesses, careers, and personal lives. In this issue, we identify some AI sense and world model embodiment advances toward AGI as well as some new robots that are out there. We also look at free gasoline from air and a supposed Anti-gravity engine. One of these is a real product coming soon and the other is about as...

Here, you get the benefit of that experience to bring you impactful information about the latest emerging and future technologies that will change the pace of our businesses and perhaps eve...

Part Deux Issue number 2 and I'd like to look back briefly at spintronics since there was an article on it last issue. It's been nearly 40 years since I read the first research articles on spintronics and while we've a few basic circuits as proven developments, we are mostly still waiting for materials science work to bring us the easily manufactured, small components we need to get th...
