Hi All,
As you may know, I’m writing a 7-part essay on Doug Engelbart’s vision of human augmentation, using it as a lens with which to view AI-Assisted coding & various considerations around that.
This includes a dense disquisition on @GeePawHill’s friend Kent Beck’s current augmented process. Can he show us how Engelbart’s Law holds in 2025? I welcome everyone’s constructive comment & reflections.
@kkarhan 🌟 Imagine playing the guitar faster or holding an extra tool with ease—all thanks to an extra thumb! Dani Clode and neuroscientist Tamar Makin at the University of Cambridge are making this a reality. 🦾🎵

Sag mal, ITAS - Was können Exoskelette? 🦾👀
Stärker, schneller, präziser - so könnten wir arbeiten und leben, wenn wir #Exoskelette benutzen. Aber warum sehen wir Exoskelette nur in Hollywood? Über die Chancen und Risiken von Exoskeletten und #HumanAugmentation spricht Jérémy Lefint mit Dir.
*Wir haben echte Exoskelette zum Anschauen und Anfassen vor Ort.* 👉🤖
📆 Dienstag, 10. Dezember 2024, 13-18 Uhr
📍 Karlstraße 9, Karlsruhe
⭐ Eintritt frei. Du kannst jederzeit kommen und gehen. Wir freuen uns auf Dich!
“Sag mal, ITAS” ist eine Veranstaltungsreihe des ITAS am @KIT_Karlsruhe in Karl9 - Wissenschaftslokal für Technik und Gesellschaft.
Forschende verlegen ihren Arbeitsplatz jeden Dienstagnachmittag in Karl9 und beantworten Deine Fragen zu ihren Forschungsthemen.
Alle Ausgaben von #sagmalitas findest Du hier

🚀 Imagine a world where your thoughts can type, design, or even control devices! 🌟
Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) are making this possible by creating direct communication between your brain and computers. Whether it's typing with your mind or controlling a robotic arm, BCIs are transforming how we interact with technology.
Share your thoughts how do you envision using mind-controlled computers?

AGI has the power to augment human capabilities, enabling us to achieve feats once deemed impossible. Embracing this technology can lead us toward a brighter and more prosperous future! #ArtificialGeneralIntelligence #HumanAugmentation
Getting a sense that things are converging fast. AI, robots and now human augmentation.

Jetzt auch auf @sternde: „Geniale Idee“. Es geht um robotische #Exoskelette, und wie diese Menschen bei schwerer körperlicher Arbeit unterstützen: https://www.stern.de/panorama/wissen/exoskelett--so-kann-die-muskelkraft-zum-anschnallen-menschen-entlasten-33218944.html #Arbeitsschutz #HumanAugmentation
For those interested in #search, I've rewritten much of the introductory article on my plans for a next-generation search engine: https://github.com/davidshq/next-search
I've defined the #philosophical characteristics (#ethical commitments to create a better world) and foundational characteristic (that which delivers the superior results, #HumanAugmentation) of the #SearchEngine.

As always, feedback is greatly appreciated. I have much to learn!
Who wouldn't like to have three arms? At least temporarily... #HumanAugmentation

Love to see the Development, Concepts and Doctrine Centre of the UK Ministry of Defence publishing things like this:
"Economic interests will heavily influence the direction of human augmentation development and they are likely to differ from society’s interests. The private sector invests more in research and development and has greater organisational agility than state institutions, meaning it can employ the best researchers to stay at the cutting edge of human augmentation research. Developing enhancements is likely to be highly profitable but activities will focus on the most lucrative activities and not necessarily on those that deliver the greatest benefit to humanity. The tension between states, societies and market forces is nothing new, but the consequences of mismanaging a technology as potent as human augmentation could be profound."

3/ Over time #SearchEngines largely replaced #WebDirectories - the ability to #search more of the #internet became more important than the ability to find the #BestOfTheWeb.
While we gained much in this manner we also lost much. I think we can still see folks yearning for #HumanAugmentation in the popularity of #AwesomeLists, e.g.:
https://github.com/vinta/awesome-python
https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go
https://github.com/vuejs/awesome-vue

The lists go on...
