The U-2 recon plane flew under the artificial intelligence control for the first time

The USAF reports that the U-2 recon plane flew under the control of artificial intelligence. That means a new era for artificial intelligence. The problem is we don't know how far the research of artificial intelligence is in real life. Artificial intelligence can make many things like controlling the cruise missiles that can detect their target by using the image detection system. The thing that the cruise missile needs in the image of the target that the sensor can locate it.

The problem is that the U-2 recon plane must have the ability to detect also the targets, which are not stored in its database. During the tactical targeting missions recon aircraft compare the images of a target area with images stored in the database. Then the system tries to find the targets from images, and point them to fire control systems.

The problem is that the AI must detect the targets. Or the entire mission must look at from the screen., which makes the reaction of the precision guide ammunition slower. In the last case, the human operators are looking at the mission record and try to find structures, that might be hostile. The AI can detect armed personnel and silhouettes of the guns and missiles, and aim the ammunition at them.



The newest ammunition like Leonardo Strales can use both GPS and image detection for finding and destroying the targets. That means this type of ammunition can destroy targets from very far away. And also that same ammunition could use as the warheads of the rocket.

The new computer systems and cheaper electronics make it possible that even small-caliber ammunition might have an image detection system. The system is similar to the systems that are used in the mobile telephone image-based security systems. The fact is that the ammunition needs only the image of the target.

And then it can fly to it. The computer programs can upload to ammunition while loading, and then the ammunition is needed only the electronic hardware. The newest artificial intelligence-based ammunition has the GPS and image detection systems, which means they can fly over the hills, and then search the target by using the image detection sensor. The system needs only the image of the target, and then the location of it.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme.

The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
