#epoch

1 post1 participant0 posts today
From now on, everything that was on the internet, everything that was beyond its reach...
All of it has passed into the epoch of history, like photos, artists, and musicians.
People became so infected by the algorithm of the cool Wikipedia that they started calling it intelligence.
Maybe I, stuck in the era of the 2000s/2010s, remember it as a lively and humane time...

New blog post alert! 👋 Explored the EPOCH framework (Empathy, Presence, Opinion, Creativity, Hope) and its implications for human-AI collaboration. Instead of chasing AGI, let's design AI to truly support us! 🤔 How does this relate to lernOS Convention 2025 and our focus on "Mind the Knowledge Gap"?

www.linkedin.comlernOS Convention 2025 | Hans Gaertner 👬 lernOS Convention 2025: Where Human EPOCH Thrives with AI 🖥️ Thanks Jonathan Boymal for sharing insights from the AHA Symposium 2025. It sparked an interesting reflection on the relationship between AI and humans, particularly the concept of EPOCH and contrasting perspectives on AI development. The basic idea is that there are five skills that cannot be performed by AI in their entirety, but rather that their overall application is reserved for humans. 1️⃣ E➖mpathy and Emotional Intelligence: The capacity for understanding and sharing emotions and managing one's own. 2️⃣ P➖resence, Networking, and Connectedness: Capabilities used in physical presence, facilitating interaction and shared experiences. 3️⃣ O➖pinion, Judgment, and Ethics: The ability for critical thinking, synthesizing information, considering perspectives, and integrating analysis with moral considerations. 4️⃣ C➖reativity and Imagination: Capabilities for generating novel ideas and visualizing possibilities . 5️⃣ H➖ope, Vision and Leadership: Qualities like optimism, initiative, perseverance, and the ability to inspire towards a goal. Instead of solely focusing on perfecting AI towards Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), there's a compelling argument for designing AI to optimally support and augment human capabilities. This change of perspective isn't just an academic distinction; it reflects in my view a fundamental value system driving innovation. The general principle of AI application as developed in the study by Isabella Loaiza and Roberto Rigobon from MIT Sloan School of Management (Link in the comments) resonates strongly with our approach to the upcoming lernOS Convention 2025, a hybrid event on knowledge management and learning organization. We believe in fostering an environment where technology, including AI, enhances human connection, collaboration, and learning rather than replacing it. Take part in the discussion and join us: Mind the Knowledge Gap. On July 1 and 2 in Nuremberg, and online. #AI #HumanAICollaboration #EPOCH #loscon25 #HybridEvents #FutureofEvents https://lnkd.in/efSnmWyV

🤷 "Hey, what have you been doing recently? "
🤓 "Ehhhhhhm, I created this #epoch countdown notification script?!"
🤷 "You're weird!"

😅

(disclaimer: I'm aware the timer isn't accurate. Just haven't figured out yet exactly why. I think it's because of leap days or something....I'm tired, to be continued 😁)

OK fedi, if you had to describe it in a formal document what epoch would you say we are in? It's 2025 so we can't really consider it the 'early 21st Century" but neither could it be considered "mid...". I don't want to refer to the "2020's" as we are now half-way through those but need to include the next five years in the vision I'm casting so can't simply say "into the 2030's".

Any ideas?

@vt52 I'm getting stuck at the part where you're splitting up the configuration.nix into a /common folder and a /hostname folder (in my case 'epoch'). When I run nixos-rebuild --flake .#epoch, I'm getting really abstract Nix errors.

#Geologists reject declaration of #Anthropocene #epoch
The proposal would have designated the period from 1952 as the Anthropocene to reflect the planet-changing impact of humanity. It would have ended the Holocene epoch, the 11,700 years of stable #climate since the last ice age and during which #human civilisation arose. IUGS objection noted a much longer history of human impacts on Earth, including the dawn of agriculture and the industrial revolution.
theguardian.com/science/2024/m #climatechange

Scientists suggest that despite not officially entering the #Anthropocene, our impact on the planet will be etched in history. The diverse imprints left by #humans on #nature over a vast timeframe pose a challenge for #geological classification. The intricate web of influences we have exerted on the environment defies a singular starting point for this new #epoch.
