The secret code in nature: plants "talking" to each other.

    The secret code in nature: plants "talking" to each other.  Recently, I wrote that maybe plants are not intelligent. But in this moment I must say that there could be intelligences that cannot communicate with us. The fact is that plants communicate. But are they intelligent, that is the key question. Plant intelligence is one of the most interesting things in the world. Plants send information to each other. And that information involves things like what kinds of nutrients and what kinds of damage the plants get.  When plants have enough nutrients, they send more pheromones than plants that do have not enough nutrients. Same way. If plants are sick, the fungi will start to eat that plant away. And that fungi sends other pheromones to the air. When we talk about plant intelligence, we should ask: are those things conscious? Can plants control their behavior? When pheromones impact cells. That thing makes them grow in a certain direction. The communication between...

Could event horizon transform gravitational waves into electromagnetic wave movement?

   Could event horizon transform gravitational waves into electromagnetic wave movement?  The event horizon of the black hole is the point where there is no return. After that, the particle must travel faster than the speed of light. And that thing is impossible. When we think that the event horizon is the extremely powerful Van Allen belt and the particles that fall through it interact with high-energy particles that are orbiting singularity in that point, we must understand that this point could be the X- and gamma-ray radiation source.  Or if we think that the gravitational and magnetic fields look similar. But they are at different energy levels. That thing makes it possible. That there is a hole in the event horizon or black hole's gravitational field.  The gravitational waves are interacting with each other. That interaction means that if there is a donut-shaped standing gravitational wave at the point of the event horizon. That standing gravitational wave...

Gravitation has been the thing that allows to transport of information between two quantum worlds.

   Gravitation has been the thing that allows to transport of information between two quantum worlds.  "Rice University physicists, in a study led by Qimiao Si, have bridged two quantum physics subfields by demonstrating that specific unchangeable topological states, crucial for quantum computing, can intertwine with alterable quantum states in certain materials. This discovery enables potential operations at significantly higher temperatures, offering immense functional promise." ( ScitechDaily.com/ Unraveling Quantum Secrets: Physicists Bridge Two Quantum Worlds) ****************************************************** Could this be the model of quantum gravity?  In that model, the quantum gravity forms when energy or wave movement is called "superstring". The reason why that superstring causes a gravitational effect is that it hits a particle. Two ways can make the pulling effect of that superstring. First, the superstring can form a lower energy area at the front ...

Singularity and its physical shape are interesting things.

   Singularity and its physical shape are interesting things. "Once you cross the threshold to form a black hole, everything inside the event horizon crunches down to a singularity that is, at most, one-dimensional. No 3D structures can survive intact. However, one interesting coordinate transformation shows that every point in the interior of this black hole maps 1-to-1 with a point on the outside, raising the mathematically interesting possibility that the interior of each black hole gives rise to a baby universe inside of it, and the possibility that our Universe itself may have arisen from a black hole in a pre-existing universe prior to our own". (BigThink/Ask Ethan: Are singularities physically real?) When we think about the singularity and its shape. That is the point. Where time, material, and space are as an entirety. And that's why it's hard to model that point. It's hard to think that time is part of something or it's in something.  Time affects sin...

The Mercury-planet's magnetosphere gives a window to the most high-energy particles in our solar system.

 The Mercury-planet's magnetosphere gives a window to the most high-energy particles in our solar system.  Mercury-planet. And its mysterious magnetosphere.  The origin of the X-ray flares in planet Mercury's magnetosphere can form when solar wind hits particles that orbit Mercury in its Van Allen plasma belt. The X-ray flares make Mercury very hostile. That planet is closer to the Sun than Earth. And that thing turns Mercury very hot. And the high temperature with powerful solar wind that travels deeper in the magnetosphere than on Earth.  Along with weak gravity that causes a situation, Mercury cannot have a remarkable atmosphere. But its magnetosphere along with weak gravity traps some particles around that planet. When solar wind hits those particles. They send X-ray flares. The main trapper of those particles is a magnetic field.  The magnetospheres around planets are always similar. The magnetic field traps particles around the planet. And those trapped pa...

Is a protoplanet called Theia the source of gold platinum and Earth's mysterious gravitational hole over the Indian Ocean.

Is a protoplanet called Theia the source of gold platinum and Earth's mysterious gravitational hole over the Indian Ocean.  Is the protoplanet called Theia the former of the gold and platinum in Earth's mantle? In the new theory, the same protoplanet that formed the Moon created also platinum and gold in our planet's mantle. When that protoplanet impacted Earth, which still was liquid, the shockwave started to travel through liquid Earth. That powerful shockwave caused a fusion reaction where atomic nuclei impacted together.  And that impact might explain gold and platinum on our planet. Theia might be one source of the Zealand missing continent near New Zealand. If that continent formed from Theia impact, and fell to Earth's mantle because material at that point was heavier than Earth. Theia's remnants remain in Earth's mantle. In some models, Theia was a remnant of some larger protoplanet. That means it could formed of heavier elements than the Earth's man...

Do trees have feelings? Probably not.

 Do trees have feelings? Probably not.  The plant intelligence is a fascinating thing. But when we are talking about plant intelligence and the ability to exchange information, that doesn't mean that plants can think or have feelings. The ability to exchange information between individuals doesn't mean that those individuals can think. If trees or other plants can exchange primitive information using pheromones like enough water, that doesn't mean that trees are talking to us.  This information can be simple. If some trees send lots of pheromones they are at a suitable place. The number of pollen determines which side the other tree makes its inflorescence. When we cut some plants, that creature makes lots of flowers. And the reason for that could be that water flow in its cells ends. And to guarantee that its genomes will transfer to other plants that cut plant creates lots of flowers. But that thing doesn't mean that those plants have feelings.  "Researchers scru...

Demons and machines.

 Demons and machines.  Computer hardware and quantum demons are the tools that make the next generation of hardware possible.  Complicated code requires powerful systems. And the AI is useless without powerful computers.  Jevon's paradox: the AI can use as much electricity as the entire state. The nanotechnical processors use 100X less energy than the regular microchips.  The problem with AI is that the system requires complicated code, where is used multiple programming languages and multiple layers. Complicated code requires a complicated and high-power microchip structure. That structure with billions of microchips requires powerful coolers. And all of those systems require lots of power.  There is the possibility that also AI-based complicated malware can drive electricity out from the electric net on purpose. The AI just transfers electricity to the ground to keep the electric network low voltage. And that is one threat that the weaponized AI can cause...

Finnish LDR-50 SMR (Small Modular Reactor)-nuclear reactor produces only district heating.

Finnish LDR-50 SMR (Small Modular Reactor)-nuclear reactor produces only district heating. But it's possible to connect energy production units to those reactors.  Finnish LDR-50 SMR (Small Modular Reactor)-nuclear reactor produces only district heating. That reactor is called LDR-50. And its mission is being stripped from turbines and other things. The cooling of the reactor base is in the water's natural water cycle. At this moment, I must say that the turbines can also installed in the water cycle. Or the district heat water cycle. When we talk about energy, we must realize that the difference in temperatures and vapor pressure are things. That makes energy. If there is a thing like a closed cycle turbine that uses liquid helium or liquid nitrogen to rotate the turbine wheel, that system can also produce electricity. The difference in temperatures is an interesting thing. If we lived on  Pluto our bodies would give us enough energy. It vaporizes liquid helium to pressure, w...

What comes after Chat GPT?

    What comes after Chat GPT?  The ICT business is hectic. This operating area requires a willingness to learn new things over an entire career. ICT lessons and training are things that teach people to search for information. The situation in the ICT business is always like this: Things that students learn can be old-fashioned in one month.  The last big advance was the GUI (Graphical User Interface). And that thing took jobs from the bat. programmers. The next big thing is the AI. First came the Chat GPT which can make computer programs by following instructions. That controller gives. And the next big thing was that the AI integrated with the search engines.  AI is a useful tool, especially in programming. Data that it requires are well documented and short in the form that the AI can use without problems. The AI can make complicated computer programs by collecting data from the internet. And that thing makes it superior to human programmers. The Chat GP...

Many companies are working to develop portable nuclear reactors (PoNu) to replace diesel generators.

  Many companies are working to develop portable nuclear reactors (PoNu) to replace diesel generators.  Work with compact and powerful nuclear reactors continues. The reactor's purpose is to replace diesel generators fit in trucks. That means they can be used in multiple systems, from fixed power plants to ultimate power sources for ships, trains, and aircraft. And even trucks and tanks. The reason why those small-size nuclear reactors are under development is that.  These kinds of systems decrease carbon emissions. Another reason why those systems are under development is that modern weapon systems like direct energy weapons, which means microwaves and lasers require electric power. Also, coherent high-power radio waves that are used to deliver electricity to drones remotely through air require a trusted and powerful power source. The portable nuclear reactors can changed same way as batteries.  And if some ship or aircraft uses portable nuclear reactors. Operators ...

The ability to decode neurons can connect a person straight with the net.

 The ability to decode neurons can connect a person straight with the net.  The AI itself is an impressive tool. If the office uses general-AI-based technology. That means the director can simply give a "to-do" list to AI in the morning. And then the AI makes those things, like sending business letters to customers, and following that payments are made.  But the AI allows us to create things like BCI (Brain-computer interfaces). Those interfaces link people straight with computers. The fully working BCI system allows people to make connections using brainwaves. And the BCI system makes technical telepathy possible. In those systems person can control robots using the brainwaves.  The BCI means that the computers can decode thoughts. Then system can transmit those thoughts on the computer screen. The ability to control robots using brain waves is possible only when the system knows what a person thinks. The problem is this. If we control robots by using brainwaves mos...

Darwin, AI, and free will can turn things around.

  Darwin, AI, and free will can turn things around. Evolution of the AI.  Darwin, AI, and free will can turn things around.  Does the AI need free will to develop itself? Or are developers given those abilities for the AI? The computer program doesn't do anything else that is programmed in it. But if the AI gets digital twin, and those systems start to develop each other, can that process slip from hand? Can the AI become conscious without telling that thing to its developers?  When we think about AI and its autonomous evolution. We face an interesting phenomenon. If a creature whose existence depends on other species wants to survive, that creature must turn itself into a useful and necessary thing. The small crab that lives between hermit crab horns is a good example of that kind of species. That small crab cheats food for the hermit crab. And then that small crab cleans the shell of that bigger crab. The small crab puts its egg between the hermit crab eggs. In tha...

Is our reality a computer simulation? The new law in physics can tell that is true.

     Is our reality a computer simulation? The new law in physics can tell that is true.  We might think that people who claim that our reality is a simulation are crazy. But the fact is that it's 50% possible that our life and reality are simulations in a computer's memory. There is also a steampunk vision about that theory. The base in that steampunk version is in large city warfare areas, where the Warsaw Pact military trained in city warfare. If some person lives in that kind of military exercise area for their entire life, that person believes that there is infinite war on Earth.  When we think about the simulated reality theory, we face another thing. And that is who made that simulation? What is the motive for that kind of thing? In some visions, the crew in interstellar spacecraft are in hypothermic hibernation, and they live in the simulation. The purpose of the simulation would be that those people can spend time in that alternative or augmented realit...

Soundwaves can control light.

Soundwaves can control light. Soundwaves can control light. And that makes them new tools for making photonic computers. Soundwave is the denser point in the air. All changes in gas and other materials' density form a border layer. And that kind of border layers are changing the light's direction.  Same way, the atmosphere around planets changes the direction of photons. If researchers make a chamber where there is gas and then aim the extremely sharp loudspeakers at that gas those soundwaves can aim laser rays in the desired direction. And that thing makes it possible to create a router. That aims laser rays into the wanted route.  "A laser light beam passes between a loudspeaker-reflector array that creates a grating of air. The laser beam interacts with this grating and is deflected without contact. Credit: Science Communication Lab for DESY" (ScitechDaily.com/Sound Controls Light: Deflecting Laser Beams Using Air) But laser light interacts oppositely way. When las...

Unlike researchers previously thought, new research links brainwaves straight with memory.

 Unlike researchers previously thought, new research links brainwaves straight with memory.  The new observation that memory is directly connected with brainwaves opens new visions for medical treatment that is used to fix brain damage. When we are losing some neurons, the thing that we lose is the memory stored in those cells. All our skills and abilities are stored in memory. And the observation that the brainwaves interact with memory opens a new path to neural research.  It's quite easy to transfer the brainwaves between people. The only thing that we must do is store the EEG in some file or C-cassette. Then that file can driven to the cerebral cortex using the electric shock system, which transmits that signal into brain cells. It's possible to store a person's brainwaves in computer hard disks. And then transmit them over generations.  EEG signals travel in the synapses. They are like small electric wires in the human brain. The radio transmitter that can affec...

The future of medicine is in artificial organisms.

   The future of medicine is in artificial organisms.  In the future medicines will be produced by using artificial organisms. Artificial organisms are impressive tools. Genome reprogramming makes it possible to create next-generation medicines in the human body. The reprogrammed bacteria and immune cells can make any biological chemicals in the world. Artificial organisms can reprogram other cells by injecting RNA molecules into them.  Genetically engineered bacteria can produce blood cells for humans. In the worst cases where blood leak is very aquatic those bacteria can inject in the human body to produce blood cells. The ability to create artificial RNA makes it possible to reprogram cells. The artificial organism could destroy the old DNA from cells and replace it with the new DNA that might turn the cell into another.  There are two possibilities for how those things can make that thing.  1) The cell itself turns to another one.  2) The descendan...
