“The future hinges on our ability to both reform the current system and create a new one that genuinely serves the best interests of humanity. To achieve this, we must break down data silos to encourage collaboration, create market conditions in which a diversity of options thrive to fuel creativity, and shift away from polarising content to an environment shaped by a diversity of voices and perspectives that nurture empathy and understanding.”

Marking the Web’s 35th Birthday: An Open Letter - World Wide Web Foundation
Original Hope Three and a half decades ago, when I invented the web, its trajectory was impossible to imagine. There was no roadmap to predict the course of its evolution, it was a captivating odyssey filled with unforeseen opportunities and challenges. Underlying its whole infrastructure was the intention to allow for collaboration, foster compassion and

LAC's "Vision 2030 expresses eagerness to attract more uninitiated users, but it has little to say about how they will 'connect with their history and culture.' It is as though archival materials were unproblematic and transparent and as though …

This super sounds like re-introducing symbolic #AI using machine learning systems to build options to run goal-oriented optimization functions on. Like I wonder how OpenAI et al will re-brand all the old methods like simulated annealing etc. and claim to have invented the future.

As Kinkajou confronts the harsh reality of his Master's intentions, he must choose to embrace his inner strength and unlock his full potential as a creative force for good. The future is in his hands, and the power to make a difference lies within his inventive genius.

Zero-one Laws for a Control Problem with Random Action Sets
In many control problems there is only limited information about the actions that will be available at future stages. We introduce a framework where the Controller chooses actions $a_{0}, a_{1}, \ldots$, one at a time. Her goal is to maximize the probability that the infinite sequence $(a_{0}, a_{1}, \ldots)$ is an element of a given subset $G$ of $\mathbb{N}^{\mathbb{N}}$. The set $G$, called the goal, is assumed to be a Borel tail set. The Controller's choices are restricted: having taken a s…

Future stability of perfect fluids with extreme tilt and linear equation of state $p=c_s^2ρ$ for the Einstein-Euler system with positive cosmological constant: The range $\frac{1}{3}
We study the future stability of cosmological fluids, in spacetimes with an accelerated expansion, which exhibit extreme tilt behavior, ie. their fluid velocity becoming asymptotically null at timelike infinity. It has been predicted in the article \cite{LEUW} that the latter behavior is dominant for sound speeds beyond radiation $c_s=1/\sqrt{3}$, hence, bifurcating off of the stable orthogonal fluid behavior modeled by the classical FLRW family of solutions, for $c_s^2\in[0,\frac{1}{3}]$.
