Why AI should forget things?

Memory is like an attic. If there is lots of stuff that makes it slow and if the attic is full of stuff, that means the owner must check much more merchandise than in a clean attic. When people are cleaning their attics and carrying unnecessary merchandise away.

That makes it easier to use that room. People forget things because that makes their memory effective. If there are left only things. that people need that makes the memory effective. And one reason for removing things from memory is that we don't use them. In this text system, the brain and computers follow the same rule. They forget because their memory is not unlimited.

Why do we forget? Forgetting things makes our memory more effective because there are not so many memories. Memory is an impressive thing, but even human memory is not unlimited. When the system stores something in memory, it must reserve one memory unit for each memory. And when the system wants to find something in memory, that requires that it must check every memory unit. The memories of computers and the human brain operate the same way. They store memories in a network structure. That memory does not have unlimited capacity.

So, if we don't use some memories, we should not store them. If the system erases memories that it doesn't use, that releases those memory units for new memories. Memory is like a network of cells that form a network and reconnect those cells in a morphing neural network makes possible to reshape images and memory entireties.

When artificial intelligence erases some memories, it does the same thing that regular computer users do every spring. It cleans its memory from unnecessary data, which makes it faster. The algorithm determines how often a user or program must open a certain file. If the file is not open, or it has no other connections with used software, that means the system erases that file. That kind of thing makes the AI more effective.

The new bendable sensor is like straight from the SciFi movies.

"Researchers at Osaka University have developed a groundbreaking flexible optical sensor that works even when crumpled. Using carbon nanotube photodetectors and wireless Bluetooth technology, this sensor enables non-invasive analysis and holds promise for advancements in imaging, wearable technology, and soft robotics. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, From Sci-Fi to Reality: Scientists Develop Unbreakable, Bendable Optical Sensor) The new sensor is like the net eye of bugs. But it's more accurate than any natural net eye. The system is based on flexible polymer film and nanotubes. The nanotubes let light travel through it. And then the film at the bottom of those tubes transforms that light into the image. This ultra-accurate CCD camera can see ultimate details in advanced materials. The new system can see the smallest deviation in the materials. And that thing makes it possible to improve safety on those layers. The ability to see ultra-small differences on surf

Quantum breakthrough: stable quantum entanglement at room temperature.

"Researchers have achieved quantum coherence at room temperature by embedding a light-absorbing chromophore within a metal-organic framework. This breakthrough, facilitating the maintenance of a quantum system’s state without external interference, marks a significant advancement for quantum computing and sensing technologies". (ScitechDaily, Quantum Computing Breakthrough: Stable Qubits at Room Temperature) Japanese researchers created stable quantum entanglement at room temperature. The system used a light-absorbing chromophore along with a metal-organic framework. This thing is a great breakthrough in quantum technology. The room-temperature quantum computers are the new things, that make the next revolution in quantum computing. This technology may come to markets sooner than we even think. The quantum computer is the tool, that requires advanced operating- and support systems. When the support system sees that the quantum entanglement starts to reach energy stability. I

Humans should be at the center of AI development.

"Experts advocate for human-centered AI, urging the design of technology that supports and enriches human life, rather than forcing humans to adapt to it. A new book featuring fifty experts from over twelve countries and disciplines explores practical ways to implement human-centered AI, addressing risks and proposing solutions across various contexts." (ScitechDaily, 50 Global Experts Warn: We Must Stop Technology-Driven AI) The AI is the ultimate tool for handling things that behave is predictable. Things like planets' orbiting and other mechanical things that follow certain natural laws are easy things for the AI. The AI might feel human, it can have a certain accent. And that thing is not very hard to program. It just requires the accent wordbook, and then AI can transform grammatically following text into text with a certain accent. Then the AI drives that data to the speech synthesizer. The accent mode follows the same rules as language translation programs. The ac
