In an era dominated by algorithms, big data, and artificial intelligence, the “data world” has emerged as a pervasive framework shaping every aspect of human existence. This digital ecosystem, where vast quantities of information are collected, processed, and monetized, is not just a technological marvel but a socio-economic force that redefines labor, knowledge, and power. At the heart of...
The Battle for Our Brain: Neurotechnology and the Threat to Freedom of Thought
Imagine a future where your deepest thoughts are no longer your own—a world where a device can peek into your mind or subtly nudge your opinions without you even noticing. This isn’t just a chilling plot from a sci-fi novel; it’s a possibility looming on the horizon as neurotechnology advances. Neurotechnology—tools like brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), brain-stimulating devices, and neural...
AI -Agents a New Frontier of Generative AI
Among AI models, AI agent are gaining great traction. AI-Agents are autonomous and can operate without requiring human input. They can initiate action , make decisions based on predefined goals and adapt to new information in real time. This ability to act independently makes intelligent agents highly valuable in complex and dynamic environments. The autonomous AI-agents work synergistically with...
The Power behind Generative AI
We are indeed living and witnessing a great AI revolution . Development in generative AI has produced realistic and convincing content across domains like texts, sound, image and video. Generative models of AI is out to transform the way we live our lives and interact with each other and the world. Alongside these great promises, these developments raise pressing...
From Large Language Models (LLMs) to Large Action Models (LAMs) : AI in Exciting Times
We are familiar with AI working with Large Language Models (LLMs). Chat-GPT and the infamous Deep-Seek are LLMs based AIs. These are generative AI which produces texts, images and codes. But generative AI can do more. We are moving towards generative AI working with Large Action Models (LAMs) . Generative AI based on Large Action Models can act on...
Society of Algorithms and Human-focussed Future
AI is definitely going to impact human future. The intelligent use of AI requires us to develop techno-IQ that will enable us to direct AI towards a human focussed future. The techno-IQ will enable us humans who have become digitotd to navigate our transformative era in a responsible and sustainable manner. We have to embrace the disruptive technology with...
Techno-IQ , the Digitods and Teaching-Learning Experiences
Being a disruptive technologies the Internet of Things , AI, and 3D printing will impact several aspects of our teaching-learning experiences. It triggers both hope and fear. It will disrupt instructional strategies , administration of schools, monitoring and prediction of students learning status through automation. Technology influences human thinking, information processing , and relations with other humans and the...
AI in the classroom
The advent of AI in the classroom promises to transform our teaching learning experience. This requires AI literacy and critical thinking. The integration of AI tools like Chat-GPT in the classroom offers deeper possibilities of personalization in education than never before. Open AI’s Chat-GPT and Dall-E3 , Google’s Baard, Anthropic AI Claude -2 and AI chat-bots with their sophisticated...
Heart for a Headless World of Education
In his book, Thumbelina, Michel Serres makes an obvious demand that states that before undertaking teaching , a teacher has to know his or her students. This is fundamental to the success of the classroom. Hence, maybe we have to ask: Has our classroom changed? With the changing society have our students metamorphized? Serres’ book is an attempt to...
Internet of Things and its Promises and Perils
The internet of things connects humans and things. It might be also viewed as physical things talking to each other which is then translated to provide services to humans. The internet of things is growing around us. It has posed the question of agency of the non-human actors. Computers enabled by AI do several operations, access and process data...
