AI, not solely ML

Within the context of truth engineering which we have pursued for a few decades now, we want to carry on the discussion with entirely new contexts. Think of it this way, what we were doing before was classical. Now, we are brining in the relativity.  

Why? The xNN/LLM emerg/surge of last year is the motivation. As such, there is a lot to discuss. "Truth engineering" was coined back in the early 2000s (after Y2K's emergence (and lack of surge) allowed resources to flow to other than maintenance). Let's call it this: "Tru'Eng". The late David Jakstis (metals expert) coined the term in response to a white paper that I had done under the auspices of The Boeing Company's Chairman Innovation Initiative. 

Turns out, though, that the concept is core and at the fundamental level and was not emenable to exploition by the ca-pital-sino. I'll explain. But, that's a saving grace. So, my intent, now, is to cover the past three decades and then launch necessary discussions along with experiuments. 

Yes, experiments? You bet. I will demonstrate what is latent with the newer modes supported by computing, in particular that dealing with the science of people which will round out physics and its views. 

So, today, here is a list of the papers done so far. See "Assessment, in General" for more information. 

Notes: 

* "truth engineering" coined by David E. Jakstis in discussion of a white paper by John M. Switlik on their joint work with computational modeling for fabrication of forgings and castings.

The 4th of the series is in the works. ChatGPT and Bard will feature. The others will be looked at later. Then, the 5th will review across the first four and provide "epi" connections. That is, generalization is one of our abilities related to knowledge and the intelligence that is related. But, infinite regress is always around the corner. Too, "chaos" lurks. 

Both of these can be tamed. How do we know? Ma Nature. Get used to respecting the old gal who got you here. 

Incidentally, Boeing was mentioned. Their 777 project is seminal to the discussion. As well, as we probe the waters, see"Shattered dreams" for a reference with respect to culture.
