New paper - AI from a diverse intelligence perspective:
https://t.co/aybgfjwSrZ

Abstract: "Recent discussions and debate around artificial intelligence (AI) and its status are notably incomplete, missing the implications of highly relevant aspects of the emerging fields of diverse intelligence (DI) and synthetic morphology, as well as of basic facts of developmental biology. Herein, it is argued that human flourishing is impossible without an appreciation of the space of possible beings and of the ways in which today's intelligent machine debates are about universal existential questions facing biological beings, not just AI. The inevitable arrival of a wide set of unconventional bodies and minds as humans modify and create new forms will disrupt untenable old narratives of what people are and how to recognize their sentient allies in unfamiliar guises. Herein, the issues engendered by the advent of AI from the perspective of the field of DI and the evolutionary history of the bodies and minds are discussed."

For decades, it was clear that it would take a planet-sized telescope to see a black hole. In April 2019, the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration (EHTC) synthesized an Earth-sized instrument with 200 collaborators and telescopes on five continents. Exploiting the spinning of Earth as part of the apparatus, the EHTC recorded the billion-degree plasma around the event horizon: The first image of a black hole.

More questions followed: What if there was a virtual telescope larger than the planet? Could we peer deep into the doughnut-like image to glimpse not hot gas but a thin, bright ring of pure light orbiting the black hole—light gathered from all parts of the universe that the black hole could see? The tantalizing possibility of detecting and measuring the photon ring has set in motion planning for a space mission (the Black Hole Explorer, or BHEX) that would launch a radio telescope in a 25,000-kilometer orbit around Earth, integrated with terrestrial radio telescopes. It would produce the highest-resolution images in the history of astronomy. In a sense, black hole is watching us while we watch it.
